FOX aired a promo commercial for the upcoming 24: Live Another Day DVD and Blu-Ray release which says “a character from the past returns.” We told you last week that character would be Tony Almeida.

July 15, 2014 at 11:26 am1. Where are they? I think it was Jon Cassar (or maybe David Fury, whoever answered that question recently that promised that Tony Almeida’s fate would be revealed in an extra scene on the DVD) said that Tony was currently in prison, but I thought that looked more like a warehouse or a parking garage.
2. Who said, “That’s impossible!”? The voice sounds familiar, but I can’t place it. This might sound crazy, but I think it kind of sounds like Tobin Bell, who portrayed Peter Kingsley way back in season 2.

July 15, 2014 at 12:11 pmDo you think that was Karl Rask’s voice, too, that said, “That’s impossible!”?

July 15, 2014 at 10:38 pmRask was a blip on the screen of this season – I see no reason the writers would spend any time on the DVD about him, much less glorify him as a “character of the past”.

July 16, 2014 at 2:28 amJack Lloyd, I don’t know whose voice that is, but Adrian Cross does not sound like that.
TJ, Jack Bauer doesn’t sound like that, and when we hear, “That’s impossible!” The silhouette of Karl Rask is still on the screen; furthermore, after the silhouette of Rask, all the commercial shows is the cover of the DVD case.
I don’t think the commercial is designed to glorify Rask as a character of the past; rather, I think it’s intended to tease the viewers into wondering who the character from the past might be, and they were counting on most viewers not remembering that scene and being able to identify the silhouette as belonging to Rask. Or instead of intending to tease us, maybe they were still counting on us not recognizing Rask, but they wanted us to think it was Tony Almeida and they didn’t simply show us a tiny clip of Tony because that footage isn’t available yet (so they showed us a silhouette of Rask, which was the closest thing they had). I hope I didn’t make that too confusing?

July 15, 2014 at 1:46 pmWhat I wouldn’t give for: a conversation between Heller and Jack that will resonate and address all those harsh words Heller uttered in Season 6 and feels more authentic than “I gave you a pardon” and “I never wanted a pardon, not for this” In all fairness the writers did allow Jack to get stuff out on the table but it was not reciprocated.
Or something more than an Eskimo kiss between Jack and Audrey– I never expected a flat out reunion, but my God they had so much that needed to be said and a final conversation that starts “Kill Him” and ends with “I gotta go” is not emotionally satisfying.
Or having Mark do one last rat weaseley thing so that when he gets nailed to the wall we are glad and cheering instead of MEH about his going home to face justice.
Or a conversation with Chloe and Jack or even Chloe and Kate or hell Chloe and Belchek….anyone that allowed her to get out what needed to be said and set her on any kind of path other than going back to the USA facing treason charges of her own and no where to pause for her to process the horrors of her day.
Or Cheng being confronted by Jack and Audrey or Jack and Heller or Jack and Chloe or hell Jack and Belchek and having a conversation about what needed to be said.
Then off with his head.
Honestly poor Kim Raver she got so robbed== how much better would it have been if she was there in on the kill and then Cheng pulled a hidden knife and got her as she got him —

July 16, 2014 at 2:12 pmI hope an alternative ending in this blu-ray…
Like they did with S1…. Maybe with a good ending for Audrey and Jack.
