From the folks over at blogs.4bauer:
A
stupid little contract dispute
long overdue labor dispute has killed Jack Bauer. Something that nuclear blasts, CAIR, Russian separatists, drug cartels, overdoses, a shooter on the roof, Nina Myers, Kim Bauer, bombs, viruses, nuclear meltdown, President Logan, bullets, poison gas, an airplane with no pilot, guns, torture, black helicopters, other Bauers, Marwan, moles, CTU, the government, one human rights lawyer, Audrey, Behrooz, Middle Eastern terrorists, lesbians, and even death (twice) could not do.

Anyone still have the RSS feed live on this site?
If so, check out this press release my friend who works for Fox sent me.
I know it kinda goes against my “no spoilers rule,” but that just applies during the season…
24 RESETS THE CLOCK FOR SEASON SEVEN
WITH TWO-NIGHT PREMIERE EVENT
SUNDAY, JAN. 13, AND MONDAY, JAN. 14, ON FOXCTU Disbanded, Set in Washington, DC;
Fan-Favorite “Tony Almeida” Returns“Day 7″ to Air All Originals All Season into June
The innovative, addictive, Emmy Award-winning television series 24

conspirator in CTU’s infirmary.“Tony’s uncertain fate near the end of ‘Day 5′ left the door open for
his return,” said executive producer/show-runner Howard Gordon. “And
since there was no silent clock at the conclusion of his last appearance

a possibility.”Bernard’s return highlights a list of notable cast members clocking in
for Season Seven, including the previously announced Cherry Jones (”The

At least 6 Kills | 0 Tortures
OK…we better wrap this up with a couple good kills and at least one amazing torture. And I’m hoping for a Chinese torture.
Morris is about to find out that he’s a Daddy. Doesn’t he know that Chloe’s love language is helping Jack. If Morris really loved her, he’d go help Jack.
Obliterate the oil rig! Obliterate up the oil rig! Jack will survive and that’s all that counts.
“Get the kid, Jack. Get the kid.” - Ricky to Jack Bauer
“Jack, don’t even think about it.” - Bill knowing full well he’s going to help Jack
“I’m not going to do something because it’s my nephew…I’m going to do something because it’s an innocent kid.” - Jack Bauer
Jack has a new bag. This one’s black.
The Russians use Dells, as well. They must be bad.
At least Jack is calling in to let them know what he is doing…will Nadia finally realize that she needs to trust Jack?
“We don’t need your authorization, Nadia, we need your help.” - Jack Bauer
Jack’s chopper is slower than his dad’s little boat was.
Why did Cheng give Jack’s dad the component? He couldn’t hold it and a gun at the same time?
2-3 kills at least! Holy crap! How many kills in that blast? ARGGGG! How do we count those? I’ll go back and check those later. (UPDATE: I THINK FOX READS MY SITE AND WANTED TO MAKE THIS LAST EPISODE DIFFICULT FOR ME TO COUNT…I’m going to say at least one kill in the blast).
And another kill! At least that one was easy…and another.
The killing is a beautiful thing.
Go Jack Jr! Kill Grandpa!
Yes! Jack Jr gets a shot off!
“I’ve been exactly where you are and I know exactly how you feel…” and then some garbage about not feeling good about killing bad people… - Jack to Jack Jr
8 Missles! Awesome!
“I’ve got Jack and his nephew and Chang in custody.” - Bill Buchanan with the “nah nah boo boo” quote of the show
“What the hell happened?” - Bill
“He fell…my Uncle Jack fell!” - Jack Jr
“Jack’s not ready to go back yet.” - Bill Buchanan
OK…what are the loose ends here? Chloe’s Pregnancy, Audrey, President Palmer, The Logans, Karen Hayes?? How can they wrap all these up in the next 25 minutes?
“That’s good cause I’m pregnant.” - Chloe
“You mean like with child?” - Morris
“That’s usually how it works…You know, this is a nice moment. Let’s not ruin it by saying something stupid.” - Chloe
“You know, Karen, I think I’m going to miss you.” - Weasel
“Really?” - Karen
“I can answer that better after you have gone.” - Weasel
Jack is getting in the longest monologue of the season right now.
“If you send someone after us, I’ll kill him. I’m pretty good at that, too.” - Jack Bauer
Jack, Jack, Jack…with all your options! You’re going back to Audrey?
He’s “letting her go” now. Man, he keeps changing his mind and mood. Is Jack PMSing?
What a lame ending. They could have had Jack kill himself and then they could have done a prequel or something. That would have been better than this ending!

0 Kills | 0 Tortures
“We need to go through the motions of handing you over to him.” - Ricky to Jack Jr (with a strategy we know never works)
They think an SUV will hold Jack? Especially when he has Chloe on speed dial?
So earlier in the day the US threatened to attack another country and now another country is threatening to attack the US. Boring.
“I just got off the phoen with Jack Bauer.” - Karen
“I thought he was under arrest.” - Weasel
“He is, but he called me…He’s Philip Bauer’s son and he’s been right more than we have today.” - Karen
What’s in the photo album, Bill? Special pictures from the honeymoon?
Alright! Karen has asked Bill to do “whatever it takes.” That better involve Jack, torture, and killing.
Man…Nadia really does look better with the black turtleneck on.
What the? Ricky checked one bush to make sure it was safe before bringing Jack Jr out of the chopper? He is no Jack.
Hopefully Ricky put his phone on mute before yelling over the com to CTU with his secret plans.
Every component in the world has either PDA or a Sprint capability.
“94ACN” - This is the security code to monitor the internal system at CTU. That, my friends, is some killer encryption. I think my home network is more secure.
No wonder Chloe and Morris have been fighting. She has an Apple and he has a Dell.
I actually love Chloe and Morris’ fights.
Wow…now Morris and Ricky are fighting. It’s not as good as Chloe, though.
Escaping was way too easy for Jack.
“Mr. Buchanan? What the hell are you doing?” - Unnamed CTU Agent…no wait, his name is Turner
“Morris…find out who that is.” - Nadia jealously says about the hot guy Chloe is cuddling with
Nadia’s in love.
***TANGENT: My kids are playing in the basement with friends and I just heard my 8 year old yell, “I get to be Jack Bauer!” I’m so proud.***
Chloe is really begging to be fired.
Jack Bauer + Bill Buchanan + Karen Hayes = Ricky’s Worst Nightmare
“Is my Uncle Daddy coming?” - What Jack Jr is thinking
“Never negotiate with a sociopath…Philip Bauer is a sociopath.” - Karen making sure Creepy Veepy gets what she is saying
He said “walk to the water,” Ricky, not “jog to the water.” I can’t believe you’re already disobeying.
**BOOM!** They could have just shot Ricky, but they went with the face bomb. Wow
Jack just kicked sand in Ricky’s bloody face.
Wait a minute! Early in the day Gredenko cut off his arm because of a tracking device. Now Jack Jr can have his “shorted out?” Lame… I wanted to see Jack Jr with a bloody stump.
Is Creepy Veep going to become a good guy?
Sweet…Ricky is going to be blind. Or he’ll have a sweet eye patch. Either way, I don’t see him ever replacing Jack.
Jack and his dad just had a Luke and Darth Vader Moment. Something is happening with The Force.
Either Chloe is pregnant, has the West Nile, or she is connected to Jack and his dad with The Force.

I hate to do this, but the final installment of the JBTR for the year will be delayed.
I am writing this message a thousand miles from home at a conference. Unfortunately, at this particular conference I am slated to speak precisely while the final episodes are airing.
I know…it’s unfathomable that anything would be scheduled during those precious hours.
But alas, it is. Which means I will not get a chance to watch tonight’s episode until **GASP** tomorrow.
So, the report will be delayed a day.
Sorry for any inconvenience.

(Via eonline)
In recent weeks, producers have hinted that the seventh season, to debut in January 2008 and run uninterrupted through May, will attempt to retool the show.
“We’re recreating the series,” exec producer and showrunner Howard Gordon tells Variety. “It is going to be a real-time thriller. Beyond that, it’s an open book.”

0 Tortures | 5 Kills
Doesn’t Pierce Bros-Chan know that beating up Hot Sister in Law just pisses Jack off?
And doesn’t he know that taking Jack Jr into the sewer is asking for trouble?
Is anyone else expecting Rapheal and Donatelo to come around the corner to save Jack Jr?
So with all the people Jack could recruit to help, he chose Nadia? What about Morris…or Chloe? Did he forget about Chloe and the automatic weapon? Let’s refresh everyone’s memory:
Jack gets a kill!
Oh…and…the…second…best…choking…kill…ever…and Pierce Bros-Chan is dead. Dang it…I just gave him a cool nickname, too.
Wow…Nadia and Jack were kicking ass while Morris struggled to take down one guy. Jack chose wisely.
“Ok, I’ll release you Jack, but Doyle’s in charge.” - Nadia, still not getting it
Jack Jr combed his hair…now he looks even more like Ricky.
Jack gets another kill in the SUV!
Yeah! And a sliding kill!
And a running kill!
This is the killingest episode in a long long time — hopefully we’ll get to some torture soon.
Wow. Jack Jr gets a hit in! He definitely the spawn of Jack.
Jack saves him. I wonder what it feels like to save your own son.
Looks like we have a family feud. Jack and Jack Jr vs. Grandpa Bauer
Does saying “Josh, think!” count as torture?
“Your father’s involved with the Chinese? Why?” - Ricky
“I don’t know. I’ll ask him when I find him.” - Jack Bauer
“Needless to say…I am ashamed.” - Creepy Veepy
“And finally, we’re done.” - Weasel after watching Assistant Jewel’s marathon sex (remember last time it took a couple minutes…this time it took at least a half hour)
Assistant Jewel is such a bad liar even after all the time she has spent lying to Creepy Veepy.
Too bad Jack isn’t there to torture Model Terrorist…Weasel’s gonna have to do it.
Whoever is in charge of “securing the perimeters” needs to be fired. The terrorists always get through.
This guy from Divisin is suspicious…and Nadia changed clothes and looks good in all black.
Is Morris hitting on Nadia? He must have noticed the change in clothes.
Creepy Veepy is still in love. “Creepy Veepy and Assistant Jewel sitting in a tree…”
Karen is encouraging Creepy Veepy the way Chloe would with a different tone of voice.
“That’s all he said?” - Hot Sister in Law says suspiciously about Grandpa Bauer
Awesome. Subarov just outsmarted Creepy Veepy.
“If you do not provide proof within 2 hours…” - Subarov says two hours from the end of the season
“We’re about to go to war over a piece of circuitry.” - Creepy Veepy
Conveniently, Weasel has the blueprints of “the component” with a blinking serial number on it on his PDA.
“Get me CTU.” - Creepy Veepy
Wait a minute. Jack can kill 35 people this season and not escape from half a dozen CTU agents who are holding him back?

Thanks to Dee Dee for this capture of Weasel’s reaction to Creepy Veepy’s affair with Assistant Jewel.

5 Kills | 0 Tortures
Man…the previously on segments are getting long enough to be their own episodes.
CTU has a lot of blue lights.
A lot.
Jack got a damn and a dammit in the same sentence.
The guard looks scared of Jack. He should be.
Anyone else notice that in HD, you can really see everyone’s pores? Creepy Veepy’s are the…um…creepiest.
I just realized that Chloe is like the female Napoleon Dynamite.
“There is no room for error.” - Nadia (right after she doesn’t allow Jack on the mission)
The Chinese must buy their black wife beaters in bulk.
Jack Jr. is back! Wow…Hot Sister in Law is way better looking than Audrey. Glad she is back and Audrey is gone.
“You are not your father.” - Hot Sister in Law (wondering how to tell Jack Jr. that he…well…has a different father)
Why did Chloe tell Marilyn about Audrey? Her social akwardness is hitting a whole new level.
Creepy Veepy is Pissedy Offy.
“I’d like to bring Josh by to see you before we go.” - Hot Sister in Law to Jack Bauer
At least if Hot Sister in Law marries Jack she won’t have to change her last name.
CTU must buy their black Ford SUV’s in bulk.
The Chinese Beefcake looks like a Asian Pierce Brosnan.
“I didn’t break up with you because of what you said, I broke up with you because of what I did.” - Morris (with the best break up line ever to Chloe)
“Let’s button things up here.” - Weasel
“We’re all doing some improvising today, sir. We all agreed it is in our best interest to keep this circle small.” - Weasel
Assistant Jewel is going to die.
“Relax - you’ve already had a shower, remember?” - Model Terrorist, trying to score for the second time in a day
Doesn’t Model Terrorist remember that “I have to freshen up” is code for “take a dump?”
“Chloe…code red emergency lock down.” - Nadia (a little too late)
Looks like the terrorists brought green lights with them.
Jack got one kill, but we’re fighting over the second. Did he kill the guy who fell into the hallway? (We checked, and we are saying the guy lived.)
2 more.
“I’m acting director of CTU.” - Milo, while looking suspiciously at Nadia…
Wow. Milo got David Palmered.
and 2 more (another tough count).
Jack has a sweet gun now.
Dang it! He ruined his sweet gun.
This feels like a good old 24 episode. Lots of split frame and killing.
Jack Jr. looks like the young Ricky Shroeder. Hmmmmm……
And Papa Bauer is back.
I called it, thank you very much.
