Some 24 Info

I hate when they make huge time jumps on 24. Like this article says, it puts the next season in 2014. Shouldn't there be flying cars or something?
Day 7 of 24 will take place four years after season 6. The significance of this probably won't be too huge, and will only make itself known in a couple of ways. Chloe's baby, which was in her belly at the end of season 6, will be three or four years old now, instead of a newborn. Also, the new president won't be as new as previously thought.

The accelerated timeline means that season 7 will take place a whopping thirteen years after the first season, meaning the date will be 2014 for season 7.

It will be two years into the new president's reign, but more importantly, it means that Jack Bauer is turning into an old man right before our eyes. If we are to assume that Bauer was roughly Kiefer Sutherland's age in season 1, the first time we saw Jack Bauer he was around 35 years old. In season 7, Bauer would then be 47 or 48 years old.

In addition to season 7, which will premiere in January of 2009, a two-hour season 7 prequel, set and shot primarily in South Africa, will air on November 23.
