Start spreading the "news": The next season of Fox's terrorist crime thriller 24 will be set right here in New York City. After seven seasons in LA and one in DC, "Day 8" of the series will unfold in the Big Apple. Sources also tell Entertainment Weekly that next season "CTU will make a comeback under the leadership of a new, yet-to-be-cast male character by the name of Brian Hastings. Described as an MBA type with a razor sharp intellect, Hastings will be joined by two new twentysomething agents (one male, one female), as well as Mary Lynn Rajskub's returning Chloe." Will the Counter Terrorist Unit clash with the NYPD, just like in real life? Will Bauer spend half the episode waiting for the friggin' F train? Or maybe save New Yorkers from evildoing photographers? The narrative possibilities are seemingly endless here, but don't expect to glean any plot clues by following the production around town—when shooting begins next month, most of it will still happen in LA.
Jack Bauer Coming to NYC for Next Season of 24!

Why do the networks still think that they can pass off LA as New York? Just look at Heroes. If a show takes place in New York, film it in New York. Oooh, it may require hiring a crew. Big deal. get on a plane and film in New York. It's easy, and it'll get rid of that fake sheen that's been ruining 24 for its whole existence.
It would take a lot more than filming in New York to overcome the staggering fake-ness of 24, from the hackish acting to the dreadful plots. It's one rung above reality TV on the evolutionary ladder.
No doubt we will be seeing a lot of Downtown LA made up to look like NYC next season.
Oh, sure, bring on the spoilers, why don't you? And here I was hopin... er, fearing that Jack may be breathing his last this season with the Mad Jack disease that he caught. Now you blurt out that he survives. Have you no shame?
Two words: Brain transplant!
Actually since the disease is attacking his brain, he gets a brand new one. Chloe volunteers.
Chloe brain + Jack battle-hardened upper body strength = WIN.
But on the location topic since most of 24 takes place on docks, abandoned warehouses, conference rooms, hotels, side roads and the like, they can shoot the damn thing in Montreal and pass it off as New York. And they probably will too.
Only Jack Bauer can defeat bio-agents for which there are no cure, but obviously it will have something to do with Kim coming back to save his ass, given the 5% chance of success and all. I wish he and Agent Walker would get it on already, especially now that Larry is toast. 24 is so bad I love it.

KIm will do the procedure and save Jack...BUT WILL DIE.
Sure to provide much needed grief for Jack's revenge.
