Last night’s episode of 24: Legacy was seen by 3.10 million viewers (down 132,000 from last week) and received an 0.8 in the 18-49 demographic. Both numbers are new series lows.
Looking at the ratings chart for this season should be cause for concern since it demonstrates a clear trend:
via TV Series Finale
Legacy has been consistently bleeding viewers. Only a single episode (Tony’s return) has shown a slight increase, with the rest all losing viewers week-to-week. The 18-49 demo figures tell the same story – all but two episodes have seen drops.
Fox upfronts presentation will be held May 15th in New York and that’s when we’ll learn the fate of 24: Legacy and the rest of their schedule.

April 4, 2017 at 4:05 pmIf they want to get the ’24’ franchise back on course, they desperately need either a new writing team or a determination not to repeat themselves in the writing process, but above all else, they need to get Joel Surnow back as showrunner… even for one final limited season. The show was never better than when he was showrunner (was HoGo showrunner for the fifth season?), and let’s face it, he’s not doing very much these days, so he could potentially be coaxed out of semi-retirement to oversee and give his creation one last glorious go-for-broke finale.
And all but ignore the events of Legacy…

April 4, 2017 at 4:57 pmThe first 2 episodes of Season 6, Powers Boothe, Tom Lennox, the Jack vs. Fayed fight and the Jack vs. Heller final scene all put Season 6 light years ahead of Legacy in terms of quality and enjoyment for me.

April 4, 2017 at 8:13 pmPeople always sh!t on Season 6 while turning around and praising the hell out of Season 7, the season that brought Tony back from the dead in a “Missed the artery” explanation and turned Tony into an evil terrorist.
Legacy outdoes them all though in terms of stupidity.

April 4, 2017 at 2:16 pmThe reason a few frustrated individuals are complaining about the show is because there’s no jack, little of Tony, and no returning characters. Understandable.

April 5, 2017 at 3:57 amThe Tony debacle is enough to put me off completely. Looking through the comments people can’t even get their heads around what his character is doing on the show and nobody can explain what sort of a scene he had in this weeks episode. I’ll still dip in and out of this site to keep up to speed with the show but I have absolutely no intention of wasting my time watching these remaining episodes. It’ll only serve to annoy me.
24 Spoilers
April 5, 2017 at 2:50 pmThat’s why his return was announced and hyped up months before the season even premiered even though he’s been given a tiny part that could’ve easily been kept secret.
That’s why he was inserted into split-screens for the third episode promo, making it appear like he was returning that week when he didn’t appear until the seventh episode.
That’s why they continue to showcase Tony in every promo even when he has just one minute of screen time doing the most insignificant things (packing boxes up, getting a phone call).
Comes across as desperate. It looks like he’ll finally have something to do in episode 11, but by now the hype is kind of deflated.
JD
April 5, 2017 at 7:17 pmPS: “Duped” is right. That’s exactly what they were doing. The writers are acting as if they’re “so afraid” of stealing some imaginary “thunder” they think Eric Carter has. I mean–they won’t even MENTION Jack’s name–nothing. They honestly expected us to just embrace this new lead with open arms and go “Jack who?”. As a 24 fan, this is all insulting. I stopped watching after episode 7. I’ll start again next week with episode 11 but I wouldn’t at ALL be surprised if that Tony sequence is all at the last five minutes of the episode. In fact–I don’t expect any sort of “blaze of glory” redemption sequence for Tony either. I expect, that at most, they’ll have him kill one thug or something because “zomgz! wee cant lett tonee steel carterz thunderz1!!!!” that the writers think.
I think there’s a lot of meaning in the way Bernard worded it: “I wanted him to at least have a…CHANCE at SOME SORT of redemption.” That’s very telling. He’ll kill one or two thugs and Carter will take all the glory and Tony will go on being disrespected.
I’m actually p!ssed over this. I mean, damn–Tony deserved better. Us 24 fans deserved better.

It maybe renewed for a second season.

April 4, 2017 at 3:04 pmThe characterization is as bad as I have seen in any show in many-a-year. Seriously, does anyone from the viewership honestly care if any character lives or dies? Compare theses characters to the characters from all of the previous seasons. You really can’t! Then there is the acting. It is obvious that Cory Hawkins, who plays Carter, is trying entirely too hard to make the character into another Jack Bauer, and it does not work. Miranda Otto never changes her expression or tone of voice, and it is the same character as she played in Homeland. And as far as the actors who play the villains go….none seem very villainous!
The show is a 12 episode bust and has zero, and I mean ZERO chance of being renewed. Even if the remaining 2 episodes are, to the Legacy fans, fabulous, there will not be enough viewership to save this joke of a show that completely tarnishes the name “24”.
As for me, a fan of what I consider to be the best show ever, my only hope is that Jack, Tony & Chloe return for one final season, be it 12 or 24 episodes. However, I won’t be holding my breath.

April 5, 2017 at 12:26 amI felt that way with Jack, by LAD I grew to hate him. I always wanted Jack to go past the point of no return, to a place where it would be impossible for him to be back doing what he normally did… but he did pass that point of no return… twice!! and both times they had a chance to do something fresh: Jack on the run, Jack breaking out of prison, Jack trying to escape a foreign country within 24 hours ANYTHING but no, somehow they always come back to the usual, tiresome back-on-a-provisional-basis-with-some-government-agency-because-attacks-are-happening-again. And you know what? With cunts like Howard Gordon, Manny Coto and Evan Katz at the helm, they’d sure as shit do it again (so forget about any possibility of a Jack in Russia story).
That’s why I was so livid about Live Another Day, and still hate that season with the (David) Fury of a thousand suns. It was the straw that broke the camels back for me. Within an episode I KNEW that Jack would have Chloe cheat coding him through every situation, and I knew that the agency relentlessly hunting him down would soon be told to “give Jack whatever he needs”.
I think most of us agree that -best case scenario- we’d prefer to be watching a fresh, original story with Jack Bauer. But considering they went for a more traditional type of day for Legacy, I have to say that I’m actually enjoying it for what it is PRECISELY because Jack isn’t in it.
*prepares to dodge things*
Tom
April 5, 2017 at 3:47 amThe show was so unbelievably good in it’s first 5 seasons because it kept trying new things. From 6 through to Legacy they’ve blatantly been ripping themselves off and recycling character archetypes and storylines and getting away with it. So lazy.

April 4, 2017 at 3:43 pmThese writers are also a complete joke, they again screwed up Tony’s timeline – How was he in Yemen with Rebecca a year ago if he was broken out of prison six months ago? Disgusting what they’ve done with Tony they should’ve never brought him back to do this to what was once a great character.
TJ
April 7, 2017 at 2:22 amIf FOX was so eager to do a revival/reboot of the series, they would have been better off doing a 2-hour TV movie like preceded S7. The ratings would have told them what they’re learning now – they didn’t have a show that could sustain a full season, much less a half season of 12 episodes.

April 4, 2017 at 3:41 pm24:L is going down, yes, but there was a big game on last night so the show was expected to go down in ratings a little bit. I think it’ll go back up next week, but I’m thinking maybe a 0.9 at best and maybe a small tick in overall viewership IMO.

April 5, 2017 at 12:45 amBUT they do need to do something fresh. 24 should be a thriller set within a 24 hour period – with no further restrictions placed upon the format. I’m tired of the writers thinking CTU, terrorist attacks and moles are necessary, they’re not!
The backstory surrounding Eric’s team going to get Bin Khalid could’ve made a more compelling day than what we ended up with.

April 5, 2017 at 12:21 amIf this show was originally called “Eric Carter Saves The Day” and removed the ticking clocks, real time format gimmick, and any reference to 24; the show wouldn’t attract any viewers with the exception of the people leave their TVs on all day and night for background noise and die-hard Carlos Bernard fans. But even the die-hard Carlos Bernard fans would tune out due to his lack of involvement.
I wonder how much Carlos is being paid to be in this series? If he is getting $50,000 an episode, this is a REALLY GOOD DEAL for him! Carlos would be getting more per minute than Rush Limbaugh or Michael Jordan.
Anyone know how to get my hands on a Region 1 copy (english dub) of the Indian adaption of 24 staring Anil Kapoor? Even if they slapped a halfway decent english dub and put THAT on FOX, it would likely attract more viewers than this train wreck.

April 5, 2017 at 8:10 amI love his sick comments sometimes. 24 legacy was amazing yesterday! Wow great ratings!

Legacy is really really bad and unentertaining..

All pushed as “something for a new generation with a few nods and winks to the old fans” vehicles and all were underwhelming or, in the case of Ghostbusters 2016, utter failures. Yet Hollywood keeps doing it, anyway…
24 Legacy had nothing red flags waving all over it from the start yet still they persisted in this doomed to fail idea…

April 7, 2017 at 2:36 amI just think the 24 writers missed the boat when, in their zeal to give a facelift with all new characters, they ended up with an uninspired cast across the board.

April 5, 2017 at 1:35 pmPeople have given a plethora of reasons for not liking this season. You like it–that’s your right–but many of us don’t and Jack is certainly NOT the forefront of most of our reasoning so come off it already.
The complaints about this season have been sound and fair: full of rehashes, boring, uninteresting characters, etc. Jack doesn’t even enter into the equation there so come off it with your “You just want Jack back” nonsense.
PS: Even IF someone hated this season because it lacked Jack, it’s a fair argument AS WELL because he’s been the main character of the show for nine seasons straight, had his story left hanging in the wind unresolved and we then unceremoniously had a Jack clone thrust upon us out of nowhere.
These are legit complaints whether you would agree with them or not.

April 5, 2017 at 2:21 pmThe “Bluetooth guy” being Jack’s evil brother who shortly afterwards is killed by Jack’s evil father. Everything relating to Marilyn and Josh Bauer. Morris alcoholism subplot. Karen Hayes was gone for like 6-7 episodes only to be told that her flight was cancelled or something? Gredenko was a crap villain. Charles and Martha returned but were given a weak, short-lived plot. And then it was just rehash after rehash – raid on a consulate, 25th amendment, potential WWIII, suspected mole/interrogation, attack on CTU, ZzZ. Complete mess.
It did have some moments that were legitimately great though. I actually think S6 is better than Legacy (so far). Legacy has all the same flaws – lazy rehashes, poor stories and writing, weak new characters and weak character returns, etc. But without any of the high points.

April 5, 2017 at 9:37 pmI liked the initial suicide bombers threat, though they rushed through that way too fast. I thought the Hamri Al-Assad character was very interesting and they could’ve done a lot more with him. The nuke going off in Valencia felt like one of the series biggest moments and could’ve led to a very interesting season had they actually dealt with the aftermath. Charles Logan’s return scene was cool and got me hyped for the next episode and all the possibilities, even though that too ended up being disappointing.
The rest are mostly small scattered moments – Jack’s vampire throat bite in the premiere, kicking the suicide bomber out of the train as he exploded, suffocating Graem with the plastic bag, Fayed torturing Morris with the power drill, Jack bursting through a wall like the Kool-Aid Man and shotgunning dudes in close quarters to save Morris, etc… The episodes as a whole were mostly horrible, but they usually had at least one or two cool moments.
And there were a few moments that fell into the “so bad it’s good” category like the unintentionally hilarious “I’m not Ahmed, it’s ACCCKMED!” scene and Jack telling Marilyn how to use a gun (“point and shoot”). These were memorable for the wrong reasons, but at least they were memorable :P
There’s probably only three things in Day 6 I would consider great without any qualifiers – Peter MacNicol’s performance as Tom Lennox, the 17th episode where Jack takes out Fayed, and Jack’s conversation with Heller in the finale.
Gerry Mander
April 7, 2017 at 4:38 pmBut nothing excuses the catastrophic decision to make Graem be Jack’s brother, or to let Donald Sutherland slip through their fingers when he was willing and available to do the show that year. Even Howard Gordon has said the decision to escalate the Bauer family drama was the worst mistake they made during that show’s entire run… and he was right.
I also don’t think it helped that they were writing the movie or that both Joel Surnow and Manny Coto were also simultaneously working on a (short-lived) political satire show at the same time.
But they largely recovered with Redemption/Season 7 and the hugely underrated Season 8… and they certainly didn’t disgrace themselves with Live Another Day, so the universe balances itself out again

April 6, 2017 at 10:41 amYeah, but not to save the franchise, nor to be the protagonist for whole season. He just wants to give Jack an appropriate conclusion.
And if he cares about his career, he would not return to a show written so poorly.

April 6, 2017 at 7:25 pmJust think about it. Kiefer has said once he believed Jack deserved a better conclusion.
AND it makes no sense to quit Designated Survivor to return to this not-anymore-well-written-series.
Am I guessing wrongly?

April 6, 2017 at 2:18 pmRemember when most of the people thought Kiefer was going to make this famous “cameo” in Legacy? Well, nobody talks about that cameo anymore because they now realise it’s not happening. People will finally realise that Kiefer is NOT coming back at all in any capacity. Wait and see.

April 6, 2017 at 11:22 amNow to save the 24 the change of the way of thinking and restart the show on the every level is needed.. I remember the original series weren’t perfect but I always was willing to oversee all the wrong stuff because I really liked Jack Bauer.
Dialogues were always kind of “not smart” compare to cable shows (Homeland, Breaking Bad, GoT, House of Cards, The Wire, The Shield, etc…) I would say the dialogues should be more intelligent. I think the quality of dialogues was sufficient in ’01-’06 but we have a new era of TV and the quality of TV shows indeed evolved a lot.
Many characters including Jack acted without any logic and were so inconsistent so many times and I would say it was because lazy writing..
Also many plots were so stupid even back then.
Does there also have to always be mole in the agency? Sometimes more than one?
Does there have to almost always be the attack on the government agency? If they shoot something like this it should be at least bit credible! White House attack was so so funny (5 Africans killed all presidents men… and got to WH thanks to a drilling a hole …wtf?!)
Do we have to see some kind of the attack on the country? (Worst cgi ever when Jack was escaping on the car and dodging the missiles from the drone)
And there is also one more thing that pisses me off… why the fuck do have the foreign terrorists have to have the accent?! Remember the Russian cop in season 8? He had the American accent and as soon as it was Revealed that he is the terrorist he changed his accent to the Russian one.. wtf?!
BIG Change needed to save the 24.
Now when writing this, someone might say that I don’t like the 24, the opposite is the truth… I had a wonderful time watching first five seasons (yes even Kim cougar storylines) and very good times with the rest with the exception of legacy…
I would add one last thing. I had a great time with the last Part of season 8 after killing Rene. I was so happy the season 8 had this last revenge terminator part because first half was disappointment for me.
Sorry for English guys.. :)

April 9, 2017 at 7:46 pmAlthough I wonder to what extent Legacy may be inflating my view of it. Food for thought.
