Updated 8/28 - SEASON 6 SPOILER
8/28 - Remember Milo Pressman from Season 1? Well, he's going
to be back in some way in Season 6. I've read about other people being added to the cast list for Season 6, but I'm just not
in the mood to look up sources and the info right now. It's old info by now, so I'm sure you've already read about them by
now. Sorry for taking so long to put this up, too much work to do.
7/6 - According to Variety, next season will bring about the introduction
of David Palmer's sister, Angela (Regina King) who is a powerful lawyer. DB Woodside (Wayne Palmer) will become a series regular
and the new president. Looks like the Palmers are still playing a big role despite David being gone. (Just a thought I came
up with, and it's speculation. Do you think Wayne will have something to do with getting Jack back from the Chinese, if Jack
is back in the U.S. in Season 6 which will probably be the case.)

12/29 - This week's TV Guide (12/26), I missed it on the shelves
>.<, but it has spoilers for Season 5, from what I've read/remember on the TV Guide site for cover story before it
was changed, Kim is coming back, yes, Kim Bauer. And according to this picture found on the IDB, Michelle seems to be
apparently one of the characters that will die in the beginning, I've uploaded the picture to this link for those who want
to see: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v191/AgtBauer24/S5TonygrievingoverMichelle.jpg
12/21 - FOX has released a new 2 min promo on it's website for
24, Season 5. Beware, the fact that this promo is spoilerish, but since you're reading this anyways, it must mean that you
don't care. Anyways, the big spoiler is that CTU discovers Jack is still alive and hunts him down as terror suspect/shooter,
meanwhile, Chloe seems to be on the run and is seeking Jack's help. Terrorists seize control of what seems to be
an airport, and execute a man there, and that seems to be all you can tell from the promo. You can also see the
promo at this link: http://boss.streamos.com/wmedia/url/www.fox.com/syndication/24/24_promo_314.asx
Spoiler for characters/cast/start date for Season 5:
11/20 - Julian Sands will be playing
Vladamir Bierko, a billionaire and a bad guy. While Peter Weller will be playing Christopher Henderson, the agent who recruited
Jack to CTU a long time ago, and JoBeth Williams will be playing Henderson's wife, Miriam.

must love characters who face danger. The former hobbit has signed on for the fifth season of Fox thriller 24, joining
other newcomers Connie Britton (Spin City), Brady Corbet (Thirteen) and Jean Smart
(Designing Women), who will play First Lady Martha Logan.
In 24 time, Season 5 will
pick up 18 months later, with hero Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland), having faked his death, now living with
Diane (Britton) and her son, Derek (Corbet), as the latest national security threat materializes. A shaky President
Logan (Gregory Itzin) is back, as are CTU chief Bill Buchanan (James Morrison) and key operatives
Chloe (Mary Lynn Rajskub), Edgar (Louis Lombardi) and Curtis (Roger Cross). Tony (Carlos Bernard)
and Audrey (Kim Raver), Jack's last love interest, also will be featured.

6/29 (EDIT 8/27) - USA Today reports that the name of this character is Derek.-
A new character will be Craig Huxley, he is 15; a sophomore in high school whose mother is dating Jack. He lives in a small
desert town around Bakersfield, CA.; a town where nobody asks questions, a place where Jack can fit in with no problem.
Craig, however, doesn't like Jack, has an attitude, and is not afraid to say what's on his mind.

6/17 - Question:
Any word if Tony and Michelle are gonna be back for Season 5 of 24? — Jim
Ausiello: It's kinda murky at this point, but I have it
on good authority that Tochelle will have made good on their promise to quit CTU and pursue life as a boring married couple.
"They're gone; they're out," says a source close to the show. "It's a real happy ending." But that's not to say Jack won't
pull them back in when the going gets deadly.
6/4 -Question:
Will Tony and Michelle be back on 24 next year? They are one of the best reasons to watch the show! — Amy
Ausiello: Let's just say there was a reason the producers decided not to have Michelle commit
suicide in the season finale.
