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?
this is a awesome show!!!!! I never would have thought I would get hooked but I love it. Great cast!!! please renew!!!!
I love it! I think it has the same tone as the first 24! I just wished they hadn’t killed Rebecca. It was my favorite show. Hope it lasts many seasons!
Love it!
such a great show, i hope it gets renewed.
I simply love this program, when it didn’t come on this Monday I was upset because I THOUGHT it was canceled. It is very exciting program. Thank you for not canceling. Please Renew……
Renew. I miss Jack Bauer and the old team. But this is still a very good show with the new characters. I already can’t wait for the next season.
Eric Carter has the character presence of Jack Bauer. No the same person or storyline but a compelling man in the same vane. Incredible show. Sometimes I wonder how I’m so addicted when the bad guys seem to win so much. I hate that Rebecca is gone but beloved characters always leave 24.
Please renew. So good to have it back.
Please renew 24. So good to have it back.
Please please renew–even tho I wish Keifer were the star I absolutely want to see this renewed. It has the same pace and surprises the original one had. Renew it and announce it!!
I agree with each and every comment prior to mine. Great show! PLEASE RENEW
Great show. Needs to be renewed
The only way I’d keep watching would be if Almeida was a series regular!
An extremely exciting, action-packed drama. I am glued to the story every week! Seems like these actions in the weekly story could happen in the US today.
Love the show! Full of action, keeps me on the edge of my seat. DO NOT CANCEL!
Sorry to say no Jack no 24. Bring Jack back
Should be renewed.
The original 24 is a hard act to follow, but this series has impressed me.
