It s 20 months after the end of season 5 and Jack is back. A series of suicide bombings across the United States has CTU pushed to their limits and the only way to stop the attacks will be to sacrifice their star agent. But are they being misled and can Jack uncover the real mastermind before the bombings begin? Of course it s going to take more than weapons to stop Bauer from uncovering the truth but what he finds it just the beginning of a much larger conspiracy involving nation states the U.S. government and a host of other factors that make this season of 24 the most exciting to date.System Requirements:Running Time: 1012 mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:Â TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating:Â NR UPC:Â 024543462927 Manufacturer No:Â 2246292

Customer Rating:      Summary: Jack's Back! Comment: Season Six of 24 just grabs you & never lets go. Same as with Seasons One through Five on DVD, Jack Bauer never disappoints. Exciting and a winner. Best part is you can watch it at home without missing a minute because of the annoying commercials. Makes you wish January comes quickly for Season Seven with the ever so sexy Kiefer Sutherland!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Season 6: Intervention Comment: 24 got a bad case of Hollywood politics as Season 6 begins -- and they are extremely heavy handed and off-putting. Fortunately, ratings or common sense intervened and these themes are quickly dropped. In fact, many of the things that don't work in Season 6 don't survive for very long, but wading through them is painful. By the end of the season, you'll be pleasantly surprised how the season redeems itself.
Beyond the politics, the single worse thing about Season 6 is DB Woodside as President Wayne Palmer. He's horrible in the roll, and forced into the story. Again, they knew he wasn't working so... enter Powers Booth who ranks right up there with other great Presidents on 24. He saves the season.
The character of Chloe is also badly damaged in Season 6. Mary Lynn Rajskub just seems off her game - severely. Fortunately, her romantic interest Morris O'Brian - played to perfection by Carlo Rota - serves as a good substitute, bringing a new level of irritating character to the cast.
Season 6 would have cancelled 24 if it had stayed the course established in the first 6 episodes. One has to suspect that Keefer Sutherland's influence on the show had gotten out of control by Season 6 - and that he may have been responsible for the preachy content of the first 6 episodes. Perhaps that's why Ricky Schroder is introduced into the story - just in case Keefer doesn't come to his senses.
I was glad I gave it a chance though, because it ended up being entertaining.
Customer Rating:      Summary: 24: DAY SIX... Comment: After two years in a Chinese prison, Jack Bauer is returned to America in order for C.T.U. to get the location of the man putting off bombs. Jack finds out it's all for nothing and escapes to help save the day. Throughout this day, Jack teams up with terrorist who wants peace, there is an attack on President Wayne Palmer, the Vice President wants to bomb another country, Jack must find 5 suitcase nukes, stop his dad and brother, help his nephew, and a whole lot more! This is one of the better seasons. One of the characters I don't really like at first is Tom Lennox, then later in the day, I start to like him. Then, I don't really like Vice President Noah Daniels, but toward the end of the day, I kinda like him. If you love 24, and Jack Bauer, you'll love 24: DAY SIX!!!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Not Great but not bad Comment: OK, this one is kind of over the top. Jack Bauer comes back from Chinese captivity a broken man. Then he is confronted with a series of terrorist attacks culminating in the explosion of an atomic bomb. The show also has turned somehow more gruesome since we early on see Jack bite the neck and kill one of his captors (Jack as vampire?) and then eventually he will kill one of his friends and torture his brother. His father also turns out to be an enemy. And we get to know this pretty early on in the series. While the performance of Jack Bauer as burned-out is particularly well done at the same time it is distracting and the show suffers from his lack of motivation. There is also an unnecessary emphasis on a multitude of subplots which tend to cause more of a headache and do not contribute to the storyline. That said it is not bad, it is simply not as good as season 5. As other reviewers have noted, the loss of many central characters has also weakened the interest for the series.
