I dub thee ’2′

A two-hour “prequel” telemovie for 24 has been set for fall, The Hollywood Reporter has reported.

Woo-hoo! We don’t have to wait ’til fall.

It’s supposed to “bridge the gap” between the Season 6 crapapalooza and the potentially awesome Season 7 with Tony Almeida’s triumphant return (OK, maybe not so triumphant, given that he’s a bad, bad man, it seems).

The Reporter said that yesterday, the show’s producers “began securing the show’s core cast members for the film.”

More to ponder later. Have ideas for the movie? Leave ‘em in the comments.

    you know, I was just thinking about the same thing. it would be the perfect transition…

    I think this is a smart idea on Fox’s part, and will be thrilled with anything 24 I can get!

    Can’t they just air the first 2 hours of the 8 or so they already have finished?

    I agree, Sally Jo. Making us wait a full two years would have been a bit too hard to deal with… I definitely don’t want them, however, to just air the first two eps of Season 7. Then we’d have to wait until January for the other 22 hours? I’d rather have a nice bridge between the two seasons, then get my 24 in a row come January 2009.
