Talk:24: Live Another Day

How many more times can they keep this up?

The problem with thriller shows/movie franchises like 24 (i.e., thriller-type) is that every new installment has to top the previous one, otherwise viewers get bored. We've all seen the CTU getting bombed and nerve-gassed, suspects losing digits, etc. Our friend Jack normally faces a "ticking bomb" scenario a whopping 12 times a day on average just to keep the tension running (and viewers paying attention)! What's next, our friend Jack doing the unthinkable and actually talking down a terrorist (possibly with a dead man's switch and catching Jack without a gun) without resorting to violence? I'd be content if he even managed to successfully complete his mission this time around without using any of his famed "Jack Bauer Interrogation techniques."--Mazryonh (talk) 14:29, 10 March 2014 (EDT)

You are entitled to your opinion, but it has been four years since the end of Season 8. I think people want Bauer to be back. This is going to create so much hype.--Coltmth (talk) 14:35, 10 March 2014 (EDT)

They probably would've made a ninth season after Season 8, but Fox thought it was too expensive. I'm sure the ratings were there. --Funkychinaman (talk) 15:05, 10 March 2014 (EDT)
