We Want Jack

Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) hasn’t been seen on TV since the intense 24 had its sixth season finale back in May 2007.

It’s a good thing then that the adrenaline-pumping Fox drama will return for another very long day in January.

I know – more waiting.

Thank goodness for 24: Redemption, the prequel to the show’s seventh season airing two months from today because it will appease – and tease – and fans.

In the two-hour television event, Jack is in South Africa when, whaddya know, an international crisis erupts.

In our hero’s favorite word, “Damn!”

And in my own, “I. Cannot. Wait!”
