05.17 | '24' may move out of LA for season six
Season five hasn't even reached its reached and the rumours are already flying as the producers of '24' are considering changing locales for the series:
"We've discussed going to a foreign location or another city just to widen the palette of '24','" Howard Gordon, the show's executive producer, said in an interview with TelevisionWeek publisher Chuck Ross. "After five seasons in LA, I feel it's getting shopworn."
Listen to TVWeek.com's latest Howard Gordon podcast.
The rumour is that some of next season's episodes could be filmed in... China.
I think it is a great idea. I know people who works in goverment fields and they travel why not Jack.

How do you notify 24weblog of 24 occurances that would be cool for fans to know? I have something I want to submit and I haven't seen you update it before.

LOL... that would be jokes.
JACK: WHERE'S THE BOMB?
RANDOM CHINESE PERSON: (Looks blankly at Jack)
JACK: GOD DAMN IT!!

Per an interview on a "Behind the Scenes" of 24, FoxNews asked the question if 24 would be moving to another country for season six, perhaps in London.
The answer was No. However, there are plans for a major motion picture.
Also mentioned in the interview was the White House rule for 24. No one in the White House can talk about 24 on the following Tuesday as people have busy schedules so most of the TIVO the episode, thus having the rule as to not spoil any aspects of the show.

I think they should film in Chicago. It worked for the season 5 Toyota trailer in the DVD box set for season 4. It would be interesting seeing Jack take down foreign powers and the corruption of Mayor Dailey at the same time! The nice thing about Chicago is that you could also use Milwaukee, Detroit or Indy because of their location.

I definitely think they should move the show away from LA. How many times can terrorists target the same city? I've been saying for a while that they should move it to DC, but starting it overseas might be cool, as long as they don't then end up back in Los Angeles after a few episodes.

Shadowmoses makes a great pt - China would be a horrible place to film. If they wanted to keep it believable, most of the people would not be speaking English. I doubt 24 would go to sub-titles and a quiet Jack who can't communicate with anyone.

All the bombs or virus had ended up in last 5 seasons. A location abroad may bring a brand new cliffhang story. Since Jack can help US out of terrorism why can't help other countries.

according to TV Guide, they won't be shooting in China next year..
24 Isn't Ordering Chinese
Despite how Monday's season finale left off, the sixth season of Fox's 24 will not pick up with Jack Bauer riding a slow boat to China as a political prisoner. "I don’t think much of the story will take place in China," executive producer Howard Gordon tells the trade mag TV Week. "It's just an impractical thing given the real-time constraints, because it would take Jack 16 hours — three-quarters of the [season] — to get back to L.A." If Jack's imprisonment isn't the hook for 24's January '07 return, what is? Howard shared no details, noting, "I just started writing the first [episode] this morning" — meaning only two or three main characters have been killed thus far.

Sorry but last finale sucks!

is it possible that the 24 movie is going to be about Jack's "visit" in China?
And that the 6th season will be shot back in the states somewhere?

Maybe in the year of Miami Vice, season 6 could be in Miami taking on Cuba terrorist. Especially after reading the 24 article in the January issue of Cigar Afficiando.

ONE LOVING FAN OF KIEFER / JACK BAUER
KIEFER ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!
The show 24 is the best show out there on television, and Kiefer Sutherland is a Fantastic actor, as well as his looks, his sex appeal, and his unbelievably sexy voice, and he is a real man, and a man like that you just cant get enough of him, that guy is so talented in many ways as an actor, musician, producer etc the list goes on, he is just like his father Donald Sutherland, these men are the best actors out there in television, and Kiefer only gets better, and especially in his show 24, you just never know what to expect from that show because it leaves you hanging at the edge of your seat, its a fantastic show and I am very upset that the season finale is here but I just cant live without that show, and I hope that Kiefer will still continue to keep making these episodes of the show 24 and never give it up because no one could ever replace Kiefer's part as Jack Bauer, Kiefer is the one and only Jack Bauer, he plays the part fantastic he is the greatest he rocks, and no matter what, no one could ever become the real Jack Bauer except for Kiefer Sutherland, he is the real Jack Bauer and you are the best keep up the great work and everything that you do in life Kiefer because you deserve it, your the best and you will always be my best, and you will always have a very special place in my in my heart and that's forever. So if you can make a girls wish come true in meeting her Idol who is Kiefer Sutherland you would make me the happiest person .
To whom it may concern,
Hello my name is Stacey, I’ve tried everything, and written several letters, and done everything to get in touch with Mr. Kiefer Sutherland, so if you can just please find it in your time to help me with any information or anything at all to get in contact with Mr. Sutherland I would be very grateful to you in helping me out in this matter, but all I wanted to know if there is an e-mail or any other way I can contact Mr. Kiefer Sutherland direct, or any specific place I can get in contact with Mr. Kiefer Sutherland, because I am a very big fan of the actor and I just love him so and the Show 24, I am so hooked to that television show, and it is the best show out there on television.
Thanks to all of you at Fox you all did an outstanding job in creating this series keep up the fantastic job you all Rock!!!!!!!
But I have a very big dream and that is to meet with the actor Kiefer Sutherland, he is my idol, and it doesn’t get any better than him. I know it is definitely impossible for me to have this wish, or dream of mine come true, and that’s to meet with my Idol Kiefer, and to spend the whole day with him, but a girl can only try and wish. I know Mr. Sutherland is a busy actor, but if he can find it in his heart to acknowledge this letter or if someone can help me out in this matter, it would make me feel like I have a very special person who is willing enough to try his best in helping out this persons wish or dream come true, to me that person is someone very special to take the time to help out another person and his or her feelings, to me that person is the most understanding, and caring individual out there and to me that person will always have a very special place in my heart.
I have had a really bad time in my life, with my family being really sick, a Father who was stricken with Cancer, a Mother who had a really bad fall and injuring herself really bad where she was in the hospital for weeks, and a sister who has had a very bad nervous breakdown and where she was hospitalized just recently, and me helping out with a lot of things, and trying to pull everyone together. It is very hard especially when there are children involved unfortunately they are not my own children they are my sister’s but to me in a very special way that I take care of them they are like my own I would die for those girls, they are my life, so in my own special way that I take care of them and whenever they need me I am always there for them even in these difficult times, and all I just wish for is for me to meet my idol Kiefer and spend the day with my idol, and to me he is one very special guy, and for me to meet that special guy that would mean the world to me, because that would make me a very happy person, because I need some kind of happiness in my life again and when I watch the show 24 I start to feel better for a while, and all of my problems go away temporarily, because I am so engrossed with your show 24 and especially with Kiefer/Jack. So if you can make my most special dream come true that would mean the world to me a girl can only try and wish for the best.
Thank you very much for your time, and understanding me in this matter, if you have any questions you can e mail me at mswallyturnbuckle@yahoo.com please feel free to contact me at your own convenience at any time, once again thank you very much in understanding me in this matter, I would be very grateful to you and you would have a very special place in my heart Thank you.
Love Always,
Stacey
(One loving fan Of Kiefer Sutherland / Jack Bauer)

Stacey, you shouldn't suck up to people like that. It makes you sound like a retard. Anyway, I like Mr.Sutherland too, especially as Jack Bauer in 24, but he was also good in Women Wanted. L would love to meet him as well, but that will probably never happen. Oh well, I still have the TV show! :)
