BREAKING NEWS: 24's Last Seconds Winding Down

This breaking now, it appears that Fox and the producers of 24 have agreed that this will be the last season for one of the best shows of the last decade. Premiering after 9/11, the show mirrored the times we lived in, under terrorist threat and an entirely new world.

USA Today says the show will end in May.

Michael Schneider of Variety says escalating costs and declining ratings this season brought the show to an end. The Variety story says it appears that 24 may continue as a movie franchise which would be absolutely fine with me.

There will be more stories coming out tomorrow morning. So with Lost coming to an end and 24 closing up shop this season, two of my favorite shows are leaving the airwaves. This leaves me with The Amazing Race and Damages.
