GREGORY ITZIN RETURNS AS FAN-FAVORITE VILLAIN CHARLES LOGAN IN SEASON EIGHT OF “24“

Emmy Award Nominee Joins Season Eight In Multiple-Episode Arc

Series Returns with Two-Night, Four-Hour Premiere Event
Beginning Sunday, January 17, on FOX

The anticipation for Season Eight of 24 continues to surge with Gregory Itzin reprising his acclaimed role as CHARLES LOGAN. The Emmy Award-winning drama starring Kiefer Sutherland returns for its next astonishing day with a two-night, four-hour premiere event Sunday, Jan. 17 (9:00-11:00 PM ET/PT) and Monday, Jan. 18 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

The disgraced former President Logan was last seen after being shockingly stabbed by First Lady MARTHA LOGAN (Jean Smart) in Season Six. Itzin’s return to 24 will bring together the series’ two Emmy-nominated “presidents” for the first time when sitting President ALLISON TAYLOR (Emmy Award winner Cherry Jones) reluctantly enlists Logan to assist with an escalating international diplomatic crisis.

When asked about this on-screen pairing, 24 executive producer Howard Gordon said, “The opportunity for these two remarkable actors to share the stage was simply too compelling to pass up.”

Season Eight resets in New York City where a retired JACK BAUER (Sutherland) is unwillingly drawn back into the intense action after learning of a plot to assassinate Middle Eastern peace-keeping leader OMAR HASSAN (Anil Kapoor). Meanwhile, RENEE WALKER (Annie Wersching) and CHLOE O’BRIAN (Mary Lynn Rajskub) return alongside CTU newcomers DANA WALSH (Katee Sackhoff), BRIAN HASTINGS (Mykelti Williamson) and COLE ORTIZ (Freddie Prinze Jr.).

Gregory Itzin is returning to 24 as lunatic ex-prez Charlies Logan for a multi-episode arc. Logan will resurface towards the end of Day 8 when Cherry Jones’ President Taylor reluctantly enlists her disgraced predecessor to assist with an escalating diplomatic crisis.

24 exec producer Howard Gordon says the opportunity to watch Jones and Itzin go head-to-head “was simply too compelling to pass up.”

Logan was last seen in season 6 after being stabbed to near-death by his equally mental former wife Martha. At the time, 24’s then-executive producer Jon Cassar revealed that the initial script called for Logan to die. “I did everything I could not to kill him,” he said. “I wanted to give us the [option] to potentially bring him back.”

24 returns with its customary two-night, four-hour premiere on Jan. 17 and 18.

End of first promo is sweet – Jack in new CTU and Chloe walking right behind him w/ lyrics “We gonna run this town tonight
“Cute stuff between Jack and Kim’s daughter Teri. She says “Jack?” and he smiles “you’re supposed to call me grandpa!”
Promo 1 text: “He left it all to start a new life. But old habits die hard. This season: when a global crisis hits home, Jack. hits. back.”
Promo 2 text: “All he wants is his family. All he needs is to survive one more day.”
Jack Bauer stuff: he jumps through a freakin’ glass window while screaming “Let’s go!”
Jack appears to smack a terrorist in the head w/ a red fire axe causing the guy to fall backwards over the top railing.
Bauer tackles Cole Ortiz (Freddie Prinze Jr) while screaming “Get down!” – a rocket(!!) blows up the CTU(?) helicopter.
A bloody Jack Bauer sitting in a chair, he’s getting punched in the face by a bald-headed guy… looks like it may be Domenick Lombardozzi
Dana Walsh (Katee Sackhoff) and CTU director Brian Hastings (Mykelti Williamson) watching big-screen monitor in shock as a building explodes
It appears as if the first two (daylight) episodes involve Jack transporting that Victor Aruz character (Benito Martinez) to CTU
Saw Stefan Kapicic’s character firing a machine gun into an alley, and then he was one of the two dudes getting hit by Jack’s fire axe.
Necar @zadegan’s character (President Omar Hassan’s wife) was yelling at someone “You put us all in danger!”
Two awesome Jack Bauer promo quotes: “You’re lucky I’m retired” and “I hate this place.”
Jack wants to move back to LA w/ Kim, smile & hug each other. Baby Teri “You don’t look like a grandpa?” Jack laughs “Couldn’t agree more!”
Two cops w/ guns drawn in alley, appears they’re trying to bring Victor into custody but that’s Jack’s only lead. Seems to be a firefight.
It’s night time and someone presses a detonator switch. A black car explodes and flips over onto its roof, skidding across the road.
Night time again – Chloe waiting on roof, a helicopter lands and Renee walks out of it looking badass. Seems her hairstyle is different.
Russian mobster (played by Callum Keith Rennie) is pointing a gun to Renee’s head on a rooftop. Renee screams out “DO IT!” (oh hell no!)
Jack Bauer was in a convenience store screaming at the top of his lungs “What the hell have you done!?” and then “This is over!!”
Also, Jack was holding a sub-machine gun in his right hand while standing next to Victor before jumping through the glass window.

I love Jack Bauer. He’s the uptight, ultra-patriotic, counter-terrorist psychopath who’d be absolutely no fun at a party, but really useful if you wake up one morning and found Osama Bin Laden tearing up your Oval Office.

Matter of fact, if you did invite him to your party, he’d likely be forensically testing the cocktail sausages for complex poisons while waterboarding the asshole who left a turd on a plate in the fridge. (It’s where the term Party Pooper comes from, but I digress).

Which brings me to the highly anticipated release of the 24: Complete Season 7
Box Set: lovers of Jack Bauer’s ultra-tense realtime thriller will be itching to get their hands on this baby. It’s been months since the series aired here in the UK, and I know I need to refresh myself on the finer details of the story. All I know is that I lost count of Tony Almeida’s defections after the first five episodes, and that Jonas Hodges is a very bad man.

Day 7

In a nutshell, Jack starts Day 7 facing trial for the various human rights abuses he committed daily as part of his job. Forgoing the use of a lawyer, he snarls at the feeble bureaucrat in front of him that the American people will judge him at the end of the day. It reminds me a little bit of Tony Blair’s hand of history speech, or was it George Bush…

Anyhow, the trial never takes place, because Jack is co-opted by the FBI to help out with a national emergency. And from the minute Jack steps outside the courtroom, the pace picks up, with the usual multitude of plotlines running in parallel. There’s plenty of double-crossing and hidden agendas to drive the action, and even when you think the terrorists have been vanquished (thanks to Bill Buchanan for taking a bomb in the face for his country, have a medal or something), the real antagonist suddenly emerges to be evil businessman Jonas Hodges, played with gleeful abandon by the venerable Jon Voight AKA Angelina Jolie’s daddy.

And to cap it all off, Jack sucks in a lethal dose of an airborne toxin meant to kill off one of America’s larger urban centres. You know, as a warning to the people – “buy our product or we’ll kill you” – a very effective sales technique that is surprisingly little-used. And even by the end of the final hour, there’s a massive cliff-hanger that’ll have you wondering if Bauer will be back for another series of terrorising terrorists!

DVD Extras

Season 7 of 24 was actually my first taste of the series, so I was unprepared for the awesomeness of it all. After each week I’d be bouncing around in my seat cursing that the episode ended where it did and wondering what’d happen next. Now I know why the DVDs are so popular – some people apparently wait until the DVD release to watch the whole series in a couple of big blocks.

I took the time to nosey through the extras, which are spread out across all six disks in the collection. They feature deleted scenes with optional commentary from the producers. There are 21 ’scenemaker’ segments showing the production of 24, audio commentaries and three featurettes that are really worth a viewing. For us UK fans, we get the UK only feature – “24 in 24″.

My only complaint was – not enough Keifer. In fact, I’d have liked to see more interview footage with the actors. Although it was fun to watch Janeane Garofalo explaining how she memorised all the techno-speak she had to use for her role as Janis Gold.
