Would You Watch “24″ Without Jack Bauer?

I am curious. Would you watch “24″ without Jack Bauer? It seems that one guy at TV Squad would. He says that last Monday;s two-parter showed that the show can be just as good without Jack.

Don’t get me wrong, Season 7 is shaping up to be the second best season of the series so far (sorry, I don’t think it will be possible to top Season 5), but what Monday’s two-parter showed me was that 24 can be just as compelling without Jack Bauer. For the first hour of the night Jack was behind bars or being lead around by Secret Service agents. And yet there was plenty of action and excitement to keep the adrenaline pumping. Annie Wersching is a blast to watch as FBI Agent Renee Walker. Her ballsy dive both onto Juma’s boat and off of it was pure Bauer.

He goes on to say that he would trust the production and writing team with just about anything.

I would love to hear your thoughts on this. Could “24″ survive without Jack Bauer?

    I don’t think the show would be the same without Jack Bauer. He made 24 what it is now, and I think it would be a while before people got used to it. No one would want Jack Bauer to leave the show.

    Jack Bauer the greatest man to serve his country.

    If Jack Bauer was replaced…

    I definitely would not watch it. Kiefer Sutherland was born to play Jack Bauer and nobody could ever take his place as Jack Bauer.

    I can’t imagine the show without Jack. It already sucks That Bill was killed off recently. It would be nice to keep a few of the original cast members.

    Not a chance the only thing that made the first part of that show exciting was waiting for Jack to kick into action, and laughing at all the stupid mistakes caused by not listening to Jack!

    I would never watch it if Jack was replaced. NOt even if they got the world’s biggest superstar.
