Executive producer Howard Gordon has confirmed that season 8 of “24″ is a go! It’s literally just around the corner.
“We’re gearing up for a May start date. I’m with the writers now just putting our heads together, coming up with an idea. Unless we fail to come up with an idea that’s satisfactory, you’ll see an eighth season.” says Gordon.
In other great “24″ news, Annie Wersching is confirmed to be returning for season 8, which mean love may be in the air for Jack Bauer! Gordon also gave us a little tease that season 8 could include a death. Who’s? Jack’s?
“We may decide ultimately if there’s not a movie [story] worth telling, Jack may see his last day on television. He could die in the series…I think that’s possible,” Gordon said.
Are you excited about season 8?

I like 24 more than any other film i’ve ever watched. The writer and the director’re very brilliant. I’d hope to see Baer in 8th seasom cos he’s the heart of 24 without him 24 is dead

i decided not to watch anymore series when i saw michael scof die and when i saw JAck was dying in season 7 and now i was excited to get back and watch this new season but now u r telling us that Jack is going to die,you producers have been unfair for him all the seasons he has been giving and sacrificing his all and now u want to sacrifice him too?let him have a happy ending with his family in LA with kim and his grand daughter and be respected as a national hero,killing Jack would mean that all seasons were meaning less and you producers can not think anymore,come to Tanzania i will help u figure out how to go with season 9 dont let it end like prison break 24 has been the best series ever

I SAW ALL THE SEASONS UP TO THE 7 STEALING MY OFFICE HOURS. EVERYONE IN THE MOVIE IS SUPERB. ALL I MEAN ALL.MY COUSIN FROM USA CALLED ME OF THE SEASON 8 AND I WAS MAD. JACK BAUER BACK AGAIN.TRUELY, HE IS MY MOTIVATION IN EVERYTHING THAT I DO NOW.THE GUY IS EXCELLENT AND ALMOST PERFECT. KUDOS TO HIM.
YES, IT IS A FILM. NO ONE ELSE DICTATES HOW IT SHOULD END BUT THE FILM MAKERS/DIRECTORS. BUT I WISH JACK NEEDS BEING KEPT ALIVE FOR FUTURE SERIES/SEASONS. WELL, YOU GUYS KNOW HOW TO DO YOUR RE-INCARNATION WHEN NECESSARY, i.e. BY BRINGING BACK SOMEONE THOUGHT TO HAVE DIED LIKE TONY. HOWEVER, IF THE DEATH OF JACK IN THE FILM WILL MAKE IT SELL MORE AND AT THE SAME TIME MAKES IT MORE BENEFICIAL IN TERMS OF LESSONS TO LEARN BY THE PEOPLE, IT IS OKAY BY ME.
ON THE OTHER SIDE, THE DEATH OF JACK MAY MAKE THE REAL PATRIOT FEEL HOPELESS; FOR IT SUGGESTS THAT GOOD NATIONALIST MIGHT EVENTUALLY DIE AND NOT END HAPPILY. PLS, KIM DESERVES HER FATHER AND SO HER FATHER DOES…..
I HAVE TO GO MY BOSS AROUND….. CONTINUE LATER…
