When 24 Season One returns with an all-new Special Edition DVD on May 20, fans should be more than a little excited to revisit their favorite series. Winner of 17 Emmy Awards and two Golden Globes during the show’s six season run to date, the brand-new seven-disc 24 Season One Special Edition DVD set includes all 24 one-hour episodes and is packed with over three hours of never-before-seen special features, including a Season Seven trailer, over 25 deleted and extended scenes, two all-new behind-the-scenes featurettes and more. Additionally, the set will be available in collectible metal tin packaging that features special introductory letters from both series co-creators on their inspiration and challenges working on this groundbreaking show. The 24 Season One Special Edition DVD will be available for the suggested retail price of $59.98 U.S. / $89.98 Canada.
Premiering on television in November 2001, 24 set a new standard for prime time intensity, making use of its unique real-time element following characters throughout an entire day, and introduced audiences to Counter Terrorism Unit agent Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland), a man who will stop at nothing protect his colleagues, his family and his country.
Season One of this precedent-setting television series began as Agent Bauer is informed of a threat against U.S. Senator and Presidential candidate David Palmer (Dennis Haysbert; The Unit) on the day of the California Primary. As Bauer attempts to unravel the mystery and ensure the safety of Senator Palmer, new conspiracies begin to emerge that threaten CTU, the country and his family. With incredible supporting performances from Elisha Cuthbert (The Girl Next Door, Captivity), Carlos Bernard (10.5: Apocalypse), Leslie Hope (Dragonfly), Sarah Clarke (Happy Endings), Eric Balfour (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre), and Mia Kirshner (The L Word) as well as cameos from Lou Diamond Phillips (Numb3rs, Young Guns) and Dennis Hopper (Speed, Hoosiers), this will truly be a day that none of them will ever forget!
Synopsis:
The clock is ticking - Midnight. Jack Bauer, head of the CIA’s Los Angeles Counter Terrorist Unit, is suddenly thrust into a chaotic and exhausting 24-hour marathon of death, deception and terror as he struggles to prevent the assassination of a presidential candidate, find the traitor within his own organization, and save his kidnapped wife and daughter.
