24 is an Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning American television series created by Joe Surnow and Robert Cochran, and produced by Imagine Television. It is broadcast in the USA by the Fox Network and syndicated worldwide. The show first aired on November 6, 2001, with an initial thirteen episodes. After leading actor Kiefer Sutherland won a Golden Globe for his role in the first 10 episodes, the ratings were boosted, which prompted FOX to order the second half of the series. Five seasons of 24 have been produced, and the sixth began airing on January 14, 2007.
24 is in real-time with each season following a 24-hour period in the life of federal agent Jack Bauer (played by Sutherland) as he tries to prevent terrorist attacks. The show also covers the actions of others associated with the attacks. It is based in Los Angeles, around the fictional Counter Terrorist Unit.
