The neocons are celebrating more torture being dramatized on television:
-
Torture? Sure. Harsh interrogations? Of course. The series featured that worst case, ticking time bomb scenario that turned some doves into hawks on the matter of televised terrorism.
That didn't sit well with the Left, although the show's popularity overshadowed most of the outrage. The series came of age before the Twitter revolution, and by the time 24 wrapped its final season in May of 2010 the social networking site hadn't yet assumed its full clout. Plus, the series has lost some of its pop culture might in its final episodes.
We're living in an age when the current administration dubs terrorism "workplace violence" and overseas attacks are scrubbed of their terrorist roots.
Can we expect a kinder, gentler Jack Bauer? Or will Fox executives realize the formula which which made 24 such an unrelenting thriller should be left alone?

Err no, you can expect the physco's at FOX to promote more torture, war, Muslim sleeper cells, government power run amok, assassinations and extra-judicial killing. No doubt drones to be featured heavily. Let's kill those ragheads before it's too late!
