I'll probably check it out as a faithful 24 fan, but I don't have high hopes for it. The last season was pretty f'ing "meh." There's no way it'll go back to its glory days of Day 5 and earlier; I stand by my "let it die" statement. There must still be money to be made though.

Might be hard to write Kim in with her as the star.

Lesbian lover. Instant ratings bump.


I would actually give this a shot. The '24' format does work and I liked Yvonne in 'Chuck'. She can pull off the bad-ass chick thing well enough. What killed '24' for me was the writing, they only had two modes: "lets rehash something we've done 100 times already" and "fuck it, nobody cares, let's do the shit that wouldn't even be believable in a comic book". If they can keep the storylines plausible it could be good.

You forgot taking a few selfies and spending time pinning new recipes and fun crafting ideas on Pinterest. :colbert:

Lets not forget that 5 minutes the minutes she will spend digging around in her purse to find her keys every time she gets in a car.

And she'll get lost. And she'll have to fix her hair and makeup after torturing every suspect. That will make her saving the world in 24 hours even more impressive than Jack doing it.

That's OK... Jack Bauer is finally going to be officially in charge of the free world on ABC this fall :)
