24 New Season Update

[Il Duce]

Unlikely, but just to keep folks posted:

(From 11/28/07 'Ask Ausiello', TVGuide.com)

Question: If the writers' strike comes to an end soon, can 24 still make the 2008 schedule? — Allan

Ausiello: That's a very good question. And, in light of reports that a deal could be imminent (please God let it be true), it's one Fox is wrestling with as we speak. One unsubstantiated rumor currently making the rounds is that the network may opt to split the current season of 24 in two, airing the first 12 episodes in the spring and the last 12 in the fall.

I dont like this to begin with i would rather just see an entire season instead of seeing it split up no matter how much i like this show.

Agreed, leaving a huge gap like that in between seasons would suck balls, especially knowing that they'd probably throw in a huge cliffhanger.

I don't care if they air half the season in the spring and the other half in the fall. At least we'd get something soon. Ending the half with a cliffhanger and then having to wait a few months for the resolution would suck, but I'd still rather have that then have to wait another full year to start the season.

yeah a break would suck but atleast they'd be showing the whole thing. Does the season even have an official start date yet?
