24 Season 8 Premiere Ratings

January 18, 2010 · 0 comments

Ratings for the first two hours of the premiere are in:

The return of “24″ and a special preview of Fox’s new drama “Human Target” generated solid preliminary numbers Sunday night, though both earned less than previous benchmarks.

The two-hour “24″ opener was seen by 11.4 million and enjoyed a hefty 3.8 rating, though that’s down 12% from last year. The action-drama slipped slightly from its first half-hour to its second, then basically held steady for the rest of the night (a crucial measurement for this heavily serialized show).

Matt Mitovich teases season 8 premiere

December 15, 2009 · 0 comments

Fancast’s Matt Webb Mitovich has seen the 24 premiere and gives out some intriguing teases. Sounds like an action-packed intense first episode.

When is the ‘24‘ premiere going to be on? – frednow via Twitter
Jack Bauer’s next very bad day kicks off with a two-night, four-hour premiere on Sunday, January 17 (a rare occasion where Fox takes programming into the 10 o’clock hour). I’ve screened the opener, and it is sure is good to have Jack back. In the first hour alone, there are upwards of 10 deaths, one big explodey thing, and the introduction of at least four possible treasonous moles. The only Debby Downer is that poor Chloe gets repeatedly schooled by new CTU computer wonk Katee Sackhoff – though I suppose you could ask for a worse girl fight.

Paul Wesley to return for 24 season 8 premiere

September 26, 2009

For now maybe, but things are on the up for the actor. And next year, he’ll also appear in “24’s” two-hour season premiere, after filming several episodes as the husband of Jack Bauer’s daughter, Kim, played by Elisha Cuthbert.

“It was a pleasure to work on the show because it’s such a prestigious show and I just wanted to be involved in any way possible,” Wesley said of his small role, which began last season. “I love Elisha. She’s so sweet and I got to meet Kiefer Sutherland which is great because I’m a big fan.”

And now when he’s back in LA, perhaps, Access suggests, the two will bump into each other, series star to series star.

“I doubt Kiefer Sutherland watches ‘Vampire Diaries,’” Wesley chuckles. “Actually, then again, you never know, he was in ‘Lost Boys,’ right?”

Indeed, Kiefer was in that hit ‘80s vampire movie. And with Wesley’s help, “Vampire Diaries” could soon be just as popular.

Jennifer Westfeldt probably won’t be sticking around on 24

Jennifer Westfeldt

Kristin Dos Santos reports that Jennifer Westfeldt, who is playing ambitious journalist Meredith Reed on the eighth season of 24 probably won’t be sticking around for too long as she’s set to star in Cusi Cram’s off-Broadway play A Lifetime Burning.

Mischa in Culver City, Calif.: 24 scoop. Anything please!
Jennifer Westfeldt appears on 24 this season, which just happens to be filming on the same lot as her man Jon Hamm’s show, Mad Men. Jennifer tells us of her 24 role: “I’m a journalist with some ties to the president of the Islamic Republic, who is played by Anil Kapoor, who was in Slumdog Millionaire.” She wouldn’t tease whether her character was good or bad, but safe to say she’s not sticking around too long because she’s off to New York to star in an off-Broadway play this week.

Jack Bauer holding Kim's baby daughter (rehearsals)

Busy Bee Blogger have gotten the first photos of the 24 Season 8 premiere being filmed. They appear to be from a rehearsal as Kiefer Sutherland has a cigarette propped up behind his ear.

Didn’t the last season just end? Kiefer Sutherland, Elisha Cuthbert, and Paul Wesley and were spotted on set in downtown Los Angeles today.

How cute does Kiefer look with his little friend there? She’s totally stealing the show. She and her tiny polar bear. It’s not a tree Kiefer, it’s ok. She’s harmless!
