Synopsis

TV Series (2001-2010). 8 Seasons. 192 Episodes. Jack Bauer is a counterterrorism agent for whom each day is more absurd and terrifying than the last one. In the first season/day, he had to deal with assassination attempts on a presidential candidate and his daughter's disappearance. In the second season/day (the time of this writing) he has to track down and stop a massive nuclear weapon from destroying Los Angeles. Meanwhile, his daughter is on a chase of her own. What will the next day hold... if there is one?

Critics' reviews

"You need to be a part of this. You need to doff the skepticism and get on the ride"

Tim Goodman: SFGATE
"Nothing but shocker after shocker"

Linda Stasi: New York Post
"This is '24' at its fast, furious, exaggerated best, filled with well-drawn subsidiary characters and rapid-fire surprises, all held in place by Kiefer Sutherland's great, under-sung performance as Jack. Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)"

Robert Bianco: USA Today
"Surprising doesn't begin to describe what happens"

Maureen Ryan: Chicago Tribune
"I didn’t know how '24' could top last season, but so far it’s working. And the edge of my seat is already frayed"

Matt Roush: TV Guide
"At least in the first four hours... the show reminds us of the intense thrills it can provide even without threatening to blow up the entire planet"

James Poniewozik: Time
"Whatever its flaws, (...) '24' features smart, crisp and densely woven storytelling whose subplots look to be on a well-orchestrated collision course"

Brian Lowry: Variety
"Jack is the glue that holds the show together, and Sutherland, with his pained, superhuman skill set, makes him a physical statement about the toll violence takes, even violence committed in an attempt to save the world"

Mary McNamara: Los Angeles Times
