An updated 24: Complete Series set that includes 24: Live Another Day is scheduled for release this year with a listing appearing on Amazon. The MRSP is $179.98 but if you order right now you’ll get a massive discount and can purchase it for just $99. That’s a savings of $80 (or 44% of the total cost). Amazon has a pre-order price guarantee meaning you’ll always get the lowest price.
As of this writing, Amazon only lists a DVD set, but the original photo (seen below) had a Blu-Ray logo. Perhaps that was an early mockup image by FOX, or perhaps it means the Complete Series is finally releasing on Blu-Ray.
This “24: The Complete Series with Live Another Day” collection includes 60 discs – the first eight seasons (53 discs), 24: Redemption (2 discs), 24: Live Another Day (4 discs), and the same bonus disc from the original complete series set.

July 17, 2014 at 12:35 pmThe seventh disc had two dozen deleted/extended scenes, 2 audio commentaries, and a 20 minute special feature “The Genesis of 24.” Not really a ton of extra content.

July 17, 2014 at 2:08 amS1 came out thereafter as a special aluminum case embossed with the show’s logo with the discs in paper-foldout sleeves.
Then they came out with the thinner, multi-leaf plastic jewel cases for each season (1-6) even though the content was identical to the first run.
S7 and S8 then were issued originally in the thinner, multi-leaf plastic jewel cases.
Then came the 2010 complete series (1-8) that had 1 extra disc of extras but, which I read from reviews, didn’t have all of the extra features from the individual season releases of the past (Correct?).
Now this revised complete set.
I’m content from what I know with the original individual season releases with all of their special features (the prequels for S4, S5 and S6 were the best).
Is there any reason to get the complete series set (either the 2010 or 2014 edition) rather than stick with the issues I have and just add S9 by itself?

July 17, 2014 at 11:08 amThe Complete series set (now “Incomplete” Series set) in the black box contained the 7-disc SE of Season 1, 7-disc original releases of Seasons 2-6, 6-disc original releases of Seasons 7-8, the 2-disc Se of “Redemption” and the bonus disc. Special features were not stripped from the seasons themselves. In fact, the box is just that — a box that contains the retail versions of seasons 1-6 (clear plastic cases, including the 7-disc SE of Season 1), 7-8 (thinner clear plastic cases) and “Redemption” (the black plastic case) and a simple square cardboard envelope containing the bonus features disc.

July 17, 2014 at 12:24 amIf you ever wanted 24 in lovely HD, your prayers have been answered…

July 17, 2014 at 12:57 amAnd not to sound greedy, but a Blu-ray release without any Blu-ray exclusive features would be slightly disappointing as well. But having seasons 1-6 on Blu-ray is a must.
As of now, I see no reason to really purchase the above set if it’s only the same DVD sets I already have multiple copies of. No need to add more, even though I am somewhat of a 24 completist lol.
I’m torn. If I end up wanting this set, this is a great deal. But… I see no need. I want concrete news of a Blu-ray set first. Not speculation

July 17, 2014 at 1:11 amMy guess is that someone at Amazon jumped the gun somewhat and posted the product online before the studio had a chance to announce it’s release in a formal capacity…

July 17, 2014 at 3:32 amI myself am hoping for a Blu-ray release as well, ideally one with the long-awaited blooper reel.

July 17, 2014 at 6:31 pm@24Nathan, Again, only interested in Blu-ray.
@24spoilers, I’m really only interested in a Blu-ray release. I see no exclusive extras here that I don’t already have. Plus, I’ll be buying LAD in Blu, so… Is there a point? I don’t see one. BUT… This $99 price is only for a DVD set, correct? Let’s say they announce a Blu-ray set next week, it wouldn’t be the same pre-order as this? Hope that makes sense…
Curious, are you buying this set?
24 Spoilers
July 17, 2014 at 7:25 pmRight now this simply looks like the previous complete series DVD set (which I already own) with Live Another Day tossed in. If that ends up being the case, I’ll most likely cancel my pre-order before it releases.
But in the mean time it’s always good to keep your options open. This is obviously a very early listing (changing artwork, no release date) so you never know if more extras will be announced.

July 17, 2014 at 10:04 pmI’ve spent enough money on 24 DVD sets I already have. I have the original releases of seasons 1-6 + Redemption, seasons 7 and 8 on Blu-ray, the season 1-4 limited edition collectors set, the season one special edition, region 2 releases of season 1 and 7, episodes 1-2 season 1, season 6 4-hour premiere, and The Complete Series. And I’m sure you remember the very stupid decision I made in April of buying that repackaged season 5 with the updated logo on the cover, or should I say piece of cardboard with a QR that NEVER worked, by the way. I know we were speculating that maybe they didn’t launch the website or something, but I can tell you I tried every day and never received my “exclusive sneak peek” of LAD.
So… I think if this has no extras I would only be buying it for the sake of having another 24 release, which would just be insulting to myself at this point lol

July 17, 2014 at 11:43 amNow that the series has wrapped it’s plain to see that the only purpose it served was to
A) Sell more DVD’s
B) Get it passed 200 episodes which means more lucrative syndication deals
C) Renew merchandise licensing deals up until 2016
This site reported that the production budget for LAD was in the ballpark of about $60/70 million. They’ve no doubt made that back with advertising on it’s initial run over the last 11 weeks so now they are surely in the profit-zone and reaping their rewards.
The writers had nothing new to say, nowhere else to take the characters or the story. The series was completely derivative of everything that has come before it and risks ruining the legacy of the show in order for a cheap cash grab which they’ve succeeded in achieving.
If the show comes back for a season 10 I will be greatly disheartened as it would no doubt be another cheap production with recycled plotlines and dull characters who will be completely expendable and redundant.

July 17, 2014 at 12:49 pmIt is one of the worst Seasons of 24 ever produced. Capped off with THE worst finale in the show’s entire run.
Only one real word can be used to describe Live Another Day properly and that word is: pointless. There actually hasn’t been a single other Season that I can think of where Jack has had LESS character development and motivation for his actions as he does in this one.
A cheap cash-in is a completely accurate way to ultimately describe this shit pile. Of all the constant hype and talk of “closure, a darker Jack, a new direction and a brilliant story WORTH bringing it all back for”; it was all nothing but blabber and a push for ratings.

July 17, 2014 at 2:15 pmNonetheless, I for one cannot fathom how you possibly came to the conclusion that, as you stated, “It is one of the worst Seasons of 24 ever produced. Capped off with THE worst finale in the show’s entire run.”
For me, 24 LAD ranks as one of the best seasons of 24 with one of the best finales (the Season 3 finale IMO has to be the worst). That’s my opinion vs. yours though, not worth arguing over. Even so, I am still taken aback by how much you seem to have hated this season. I for one have always been of the opinion that if you watch a TV show and wind up hating it – why continue to watch? What’s the point? To reminisce about how the show used to be good? I just don’t see the point in continuing to invest your time and energy into it if it’s truly as bad as you say it is. I just would stop watching.
I am curious to know how many people feel the same way.

July 20, 2014 at 8:36 amI didn’t like 24lad but I still watched because I was hoping it would improve and get better and the end would be great…I was dispointed, but I still hope a season 10 would correct all the inconsistencies.

July 17, 2014 at 3:10 pmHate how Season 8 didn’t have any. That was just cheap. Would have loved to listen to Gregory Itzin talk about some of this scenes (his previous commentaries were great.)
And yeah, 24 LAD this needs a gag reel from all seasons.
(and a deleted scene showing us what happened to the override device, which seems to have been behroozed in the final episode)
