Trivia

During several commercial breaks throughout the premiere event, loyal 24 fans got a sudden burst of nostalgia when former cast regular Dennis Haysbert (President "David Palmer") appeared on their TV screens. But Haysbert was a long way from his role as Commander-In-Chief, acting instead in his capacity as the official spokesman for Allstate Insurance. Allstate remained as one of the primary sponsors of the show throughout its fourth season.

Who Can You Trust?

Things intensify as Jack bargains to temporarily reinstate himself with the C.T.U. with hostile boss, "Erin Driscoll" (Alberta Watson). He gets some help from Chloe, who actually is pictured in a positive light, which is rare.

Speaking of women, boy does it look like there are very few likable and trustworthy ones in this show, at least at the beginning here. "Driscoll" seems mean, the terrorist teen boy's girlfriend "Debbie" is a royal pain in the butt and the kid's mother always is making faces so something is up with her. I don't like Jack's girlfriend, either, but maybe that's just me.)

The men aren't exactly feel-good people, either, but not as annoying as these women, except for the Secretary of Defense's son, who is a real piece-of-work. The Secretary. "James Heller," seems pretty solid and it's good to see veteran actor William Devane play him, but outside of he and (Keifer Sutherland as "Jack Bauer," is anyone a nice person, capable and trustworthy? We expect the villains to look bad, but the "good guys" too?
