The wait is almost over. Today FOX announced the premiere dates for the upcoming seventh season of "24," which will air a special two-night, four-hour event on Sunday January 11th and Monday January 12th (8-10pm ET).Jack Bauer and Chloe are back (of course), but one of the big shockers is the return of presumed dead CTU agent Tony Almeida. The series will celebrate its 150th episode during the fourth hour of the epic, four-hour premiere.
If you can't quite wait until January, don't worry. Your "24" thirst will be quenched with the two-hour prequel "24: Redemption" that sets up the events of Season 7. A new president (new series regular Cherry Jones) is inaugurated, while at the same time our fearless hero Jack is in South Africa where he is tasked with stopping a warlord from exploiting innocent children. "Redemption" airs Sunday November 23rd at 8pm ET on FOX.
Season 7 looks to be worth the 19-month wait for fresh action and should bring a jolt of new energy to the series. The season opens with Jack on trial and of course there's yet another threat to national security on the horizon -- with new bad guy Jonas Hodge (Jon Voight) waiting in the wings. And CTU has been dismantled and the action is taking place in Washington, D.C. instead of Los Angeles, where all previous seasons have been set.
Ready to see that ticking clock once again? "24" will air Mondays at 9pm ET on FOX.
