24 - Season 2 (DVD) ... August, 2003 at 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment / Features of the DVD: Box set, PAL, Widescreen / Jack Bauer is having another one of his "very bad days" in the second series of the ground-breaking real-time thriller 24. Once again the hours are ticking by with more guaranteed cliffhangers than a convention of mountain climbers. Holed up in a Los Angeles condo and estranged from his daughter, Jack is no longer on the government payroll; unfortunately for him, this small fact doesn't seem to matter to President David Palmer and the NSA who call him back in to the CTU and give him 24 hours to infiltrate a terrorist organisation who are planning to detonate a dirty bomb in the city of angels. All Jack wants is to get his daughter out of the city, unfortunately Kim's new employer, the abusive father of the child she is nannying, has other ideas. Fans of the original won't be disappointed, as there are more than enough shock moments in the first few hours to hint at the climactic build-up to come, while newcomers can quickly get involved in the lives of Jack and his family. There are some new characters to bolster the veteran cast and, interestingly (although not surprisingly given the outcome of the first series), Jack's character has taken an altogether darker, more psychopathic turn. The danger the characters find themselves in also has a much more global impetus, grounded as it is in the war against terrorism. Although the territory is more familiar this time around, this second series is just as much a high-tension, taut, adrenaline-fuelled ride as the first series, and one that will have you glued to your TV for the next 24 hours. --Kristen Bowditch

 ... is grittier and more brutal than the first. We see Jack as a man haunted by the events in season 1 and more determined than ever to do the right thing and save his country, even if this may almost take him down a not so righteous path. This means he is once again doubted by those around him, and this lack of trust makes his job that much harder. The plot twists are slightly more predictable in this season, not sure if the same writers are involved as the first season, but this was much easier to follow and guess...more

24 stars movie turned tv actor, Kiefer sutherland as CTU as Jack Bauer. Son of legend Donald sutherland, 24 is his first break into television acting and a successful one at that - the show airs on FOX and is called ''24''. It's set in real time, and there are twenty four hours in a day obviously and this is twenty four hours in real time of a continuous plot. Mainly evolving around terroists threatning the US president and senate and causing havoc. Jack Bauer is the good guy who will use any means to stop them. Not all people who work with him are to be trusted. It's suprising,interesting and the plots are engrossing and the twists you dont see coming. Every minute is ...  Read the complete review

The second series of 24 follows the same format as season one. The action is shot in real time with each of the 24 episodes an hour of the day. The constant ticking clock reminds us of the time and the multi screens keep us up to date with the action. The plot focuses on a nucleur attack planned on America. Jack Bauer played by Kiefer Sutherland is still grieving from the death of his wife Terri, but decides to return to CTU and help with the planned attacks. However along the way Jack is forced to reunite with his wife's murderer Nina and whether he should kill her or not. Nonetheless, Jack knows he must keep her alive to find the terroists.

In the second season of 24, Jack Bauer is called back from being inactive by the President due to a serious threat to national security. A bomb will go off today in Los Angeles, unless he and his colleagues at CTU can find out who is responsible in time. Jack agrees to help on the condition that his daughter is taken somewhere safe outside of the possible blast radius. This second season is grittier and more brutal than the first.
