TV show description:
This thriller series follows the exploits of Los Angeles Counter Terrorist Unit (CTU) Agent Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) as he tries to safeguard the nation from terrorist threats.
Jack uses extreme methods often with great personal consequences. Each episode takes place essentially in real-time, with one episode filling one hour in a day in Jack’s life.
Important characters include President David Palmer and his wife Sherry (Dennis Haysbert and Penny Johnson Jerald); Jack’s daughter, Kim Raver (Audrey Raines); CTU techies Chloe O’Brian (Mary Lynn Rajskub) and Edgar Stiles (Louis Lombardi); Vice-President Charles Logan and his wife Martha (Gregory Itzen and Jean Smart); and CTU agents Tony Almeida (Carlos Bernard), Michelle Dessler (Reiko Aylesworth), and Nina Myers (Sarah Clarke).
Series Finale
Episode 192 — Day 8: 3:00pm – 4:00pm
Chloe wakes up and persuades Jack not to shoot Suvarov because it would start a war. She offers to help him get the word out about his evidence instead. Jack agrees and comes up with a plan in which she must shoot him, as if he had been attacking her. Chloe resists but eventually agrees.
Pillar suspects that she’s helping Jack, and has Chole and Cole shadowed. As a result, CTU recovers the data card before Chloe can upload its contents. Logan later presents it to President Taylor and he convinces her that Jack will need to be taken out. She very reluctantly allows him to set up a hit on Jack’s ambulance convoy.
Taylor then watches Jack’s video to his daughter, Kim, and it causes her to have a change of heart. At the signing ceremony, she publicly confesses her role in the cover-up. Taylor also tries to have Logan’s ambush of Jack called off, but is unsuccessful. When Logan discovers out that his involvement has been revealed, he shoots both Pillar and himself in the head.
At CTU, Chloe takes charge again and locates Jack. He is about to be executed when Taylor orders his assassins to stand down, her words backed up by the weaponry on a CTU surveillance drone. Via satellite phone, she apologizes to Jack and reveals that she will soon announce her resignation and accept her punishment for what she’s done. She advises him to flee the country as both the Russians and Americans will be after him this time.
Jack talks to Chloe via cell-phone, while looking up at the sky. He knows that she can see him via satellite. In an emotional exchange, Jack makes his longtime ally promise to protect Kim and her family and thanks her for her years of support.
As he begins to flee, the final clock of the show counts down, instead of up, from four seconds to a series-concluding 00:00:00.
First aired: May 24, 2010.

We thouroughly enjoy watching this show. Every bit of it keeps me involved. Of courrse we want to see Jack have a great relationship. Family, friends , foes and terroroists! How great for us!
I have waited for each new season. this is my Favorite Show. Please keep this on. the cast and show seems so real.
24 is the merge of reality and unreality (human’s inner ugliness and heroic instances), please don’t take this away, don’t end 24. CSI can make it to Season 9 or 10, I am sure 24 deserve it too. Season 8 is way too short to end a great show!!
jack bauer is my favorite actor ever …
keep going 24 …
best regards

Last I heard you were bringing 24 back. It seems the only way to keep Kiefer out of trouble ~ Is to keep Jack in trouble. All be it, Jack’s trouble is saving the world. Bring 24 back it’s a great show.
I had always looked at 24. Couldn’t seem to wait for the next episode; but of course I did. My daughter gave me Season One and Two as a gift. I continued to revisit them. I wanted to get the rest of them. I’ve loaned them from other sources, but I am trying to find the finale. I really hate saying that, it sounds so FINAL. I really wish Jack would get yet another chance at it. It kept my attention and had me setting my tv time around it. Maxie
please let us know when is the final season going to be released because i can’t wait anymore .
