Kiefer Sutherland is back for the eighth and possibly final year of 24 which this time around takes place in New York. Returning characters include fan favorite from last season Renee Walker, President Allison Taylor, Kim Bauer, and Chloe O’Brien. The biggest additions to the cast are Freddie Prinze Jr. and Katee Sackhoff. After a terrible sixth season the show was much improved last year though there was a very questionable twist along the way.
Two promo videos have leaked out for the coming season. The premiere will be January 17th 2010 with the same two night four hour event that has been used to kick off previous seasons.
