TV show description:
This action-adventure TV series follows in the footsteps of the original 24 TV series with the same real-time format. The first season chronicles a race against the clock to stop a devastating terrorist attack on United States soil.
Six months ago in Yemen, an elite squad of US Army Rangers, led by Sergeant Eric Carter (Corey Hawkins), killed terrorist leader Sheik Ibrahim Bin-Khalid. In the aftermath, Bin-Khalid’s followers declared a fatwah against Carter, his squad, and their families. This forces them into federal witness protection but a recent attempt on Carter’s own life makes it clear to him that his team is now exposed.
To thwart further attacks, Carter enlists Rebecca Ingram (Miranda Otto), who quarterbacked the raid that killed Bin-Khalid. She’s a brilliant and ambitious intelligence officer who has stepped down from her post as National Director of CTU to support her husband, Senator John Donovan (Jimmy Smits), in his campaign for President of the United States.
Decades of sleepless nights and missed anniversaries landed Ingram at the top. With the White House within their grasp, can she truly embrace a new role as First Lady? Or will her love of the action draw her back in?
Together, Carter and Rebecca uncover a sophisticated terrorist network that will force them to ask: “Who can we trust?” As they battle Bin-Khalid’s devotees, they are forced to confront their own identities, families, and pasts.
Other characters include: the ambitious head of CTU, Keith Mullins (Teddy Sears); CTU communications analyst Andy Shalowitz (Dan Bucatinsky); Andy’s partner and the cousin of former CTU Agent Edgar Stiles, Mariana Stiles (Coral Pena); Eric’s wife, nurse Nicole Carter (Anna Diop); Eric’s older brother, Isaac Carter (Ashley Thomas); Eric’s former comrade in the Army Ranger unit, Ben Grimes (Charlie Hofheimer); and Nilaa Mizrani (Sheila Vand), Senator Donovan’s campaign manager.
Episode #12 — 11:00 PM-12:00 AM
Rebecca’s deal to save Donovan doesn’t go as planned. Meanwhile, CTU must rely on Carter to go out into the field and facilitate an important exchange.
First aired: April 17, 2017.
What do you think? Do you like the 24: Legacy TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I wasn’t sure I would like it without Jack Bauer, but I am amazed. I love it, still keeps me on the edge of my seat, and looking forward to the next week’s episode. Should definitely come back next season.
This is an amazing show!!!! IT ABSOLUTELY HAS TO BE RENEWED!!!!!!!!
I hope the show gets renewed I’m a fan of the show and it’s one of the best action shows on television BRING BACK LEGACY
I find this story to be frustrating to watch. Why do the writers insist on the characters looking idiotic. It’s not suspenseful, it’s just annoying. How do that many “special agents” make that many mistakes. Boo to this show. Feel free to cancel it.
Love this show! Cast is great. I miss Jack but out with the old and in with the new. Please renew as I am officially hooked.
The cast of characters just doesn’t cut it. Keifer Sutherland needs to come back as Jack Bauer!!! This Legacy 24 show isn’t believable or entertaining. It’s the cast!!! I want to see the cast of 24!!! 24 was the best show ever produced for TV.
NEEDS Keifer Sutherland back as Jack Bauer! Show is good, but not fantastic as when Keifer starred in the series. He is excellent in Designated Survivor!
I’m loving it! I was put off by the first episode, but then adjusted to the new cast and story line. I hope it’s renewed!
Always a huge 24 fan since the beginning and I’m totally hooked on the new version with a new leading man in Corey Hawkins as Eric Carter. Still missed Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer.
Do not like this Legacy 24 show. No where near the original 24 series. Show should be cancelled. Will not watch again.
Don’t same idea when have hit tv show getting old stories to watch.
It should be cancelled don’t like the show original was best 24 think Kiefer Sutherland one wonderful amazing actor out there think Kiefer producting and also Designated Survivor it great new show additive one.
It not same as original Kiefer Sutherland was best actor and think don’t like spinoff even though he is not in it but Kiefer producing it and doing Designated Survivor tv show quick popular actor.
It don’t as hooking tv show as the original the best Kiefer Sutherland nails his role than the new guy even though Kiefer producing just not same.
Watched the first episode after the Super Bowl and I’m already hooked. Feel like a huge 24 fan all over again.
I am hooked. I did not watch a complete episode of the original version of “Legacy 24”. It couldn’t hold my attention. I like this version. I watch each episode twice. I want to make sure I don’t miss anything.
