We’re getting close to Christmas and close to 24 Season 8. With those things in mind, this is genius.

This also gives me the opportunity to test the new automatic embed feature of 2.9 and pimp the best 24 site in the universe — Blogs.4Bauer.com

We’ve been waiting well over a year for the return of Jack Bauer. Redemption was just a tease. In less than five days we will have the real thing — The return of Jack Bauer and season 7 of 24.

The best 24 site on the web is, without a doubt, Blogs.4Bauer.com. And one of the most popular features at B.4B is the weekly liveblog. As awesome as that has been in the past, the crew at B.4B have ramped things up. This Sunday you will see and be able to participate in 24 Liveblog – now with 150% more awesomeness.

24 LiveblogThis season we are going to be using Cover It Live during the live blog. If you’re not familiar with Cover It Live, it is a great liveblogging tool. In addition to the insightful, if somewhat twisted, commentary from the crew you will be able to see real time polls, pictures, and your comments as well.

Visit Blogs.4Bauer.com and sign up for an email reminder. Oh, what the heck, you can do it right here.

We’ll see you Sunday night.

Elisha Cuthbert

I’m sure everyone will be thrilled to know that when the long awaited Season 7 of 24 finally arrives our hero will be reunited with his daughter.

Just when you think 24 could not possible sink further into the depths of redunkulousness, Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Kim Bauer will return, joining Zombie Tony and Jack “Into Africa” Bauer.

Maybe they’re just trying to make season 6 look better.

When You Think About It, It All Makes Sense

Blogs.4Bauer.com does the math (a sentence I never thought I’d write) and it all becomes clear.

Now I’m not saying that Jack Bauer used torture or violence to end the strike, but the writers strike went on for 4 months and ends within two weeks after his release from jail.

What other explanation could there be?

Keifer’s No Jack

Let’s be clear. 24 is a work of fiction, a television show. Nothing more. As fun as the show and the characters are to watch, there is a world of difference between the created, fictional world and the real one.

One recent example is the difference between Jack Bauer and the actor that portrays him, Keifer Sutherland.

Star Kiefer Sutherland has already filmed a public service annoucement which begins: “Global warming is a crime for which we are all guilty!”

Think that will put to rest all the “24″ is conservative nonsense? No, I don’t either.

Just goes to prove that Keifer is Donald’s son, not Grahem Bauer’s. But that doesn’t stop us from having some fun with it at Blogs4Bauer. Read 24 Ways Jack Bauer is Carbon Neutral.

Best Bracket Brainstorms

2008 UPDATE:

I’ve added the Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and John McCain methods for 2008 here.

James Joyner points out this TNR post that is just in time for helping you with your last minute bracket picks. My favorite:

The Joe Biden method: Announce that you plan to fill out a bracket. Announce again. Then once more. Make an allusion to how the guy filling out his bracket next to you isn’t as dumb as people say. Remark on his gleaming smile. Note that he keeps his cubicle clean. Announce that you are planning to fill out a bracket.

I did find one method that Josh Benson missed — The Jack Bauer method:

  • Have Chloe open up a socket to the NCAA selection committee computer and put the CTU analysts on it.
  • Intimidate the others in your pool with lines like, “Trust me, you don’t want to go down this road with me,” and “You may think I can’t stick this whole towel down your throat… but believe me, I can.”
  • Use a cigar guilliotine on a few select pinkies and before long those “other” teams will get the idea.
  • Just pull the answers out of your man purse.
  • When all else fails yell, “Dammit. I don’t have time to fill out this bracket!”

So who’s method are you using? Add yours in the comments or write a post and trackback to this one.

. . . and he’s almost back. Jack Bauer that is.

24 Season six starts next Sunday. That means that if you start right now, have all five previous seasons recorded or on dvd, sleep less than 7 hours a night, and don’t let things like work, family, and eating interfere, you can watch all that’s gone on in seasons 1-5 before the new season starts.

I’ve added a link to the Blogs4Bauer website in the right sidebar, and hope to have the blogroll code up there later today.

I’ve also created a separate forum in the bRight & Early Forum just for discussion surrounding 24.

After spending a year in the hands of the Chinese, I have a feeling that Jack’s going to be a little irritable when he returns. I can’t wait.

More 24

Following last night’s episode of 24 I didn’t have much to say. Rick Moran, however, has his usual fine recap of the hour at Right Wing Nut House.

So now, after 18 episodes, Jack and CTU (what’s left of them) realize who and what they are up against. The race is on to save American democracy. And I can’t think of anyone I’d rather have on the frontlines than Jack Bauer.

The 167 hours between episodes are interminable.
