“24: Legacy” chronicles an adrenaline-fueled race against the clock to stop a devastating terrorist attack on U.S. soil, and will feature the same real-time format of the original Kiefer Sutherland-led series. Miranda Otto (“Homeland”) and Jimmy Smits (“NYPD Blue,” “The West Wing”) also star.
Produced by 20th Century Fox Television and Imagine Television in association with Teakwood Lane Productions, “24: Legacy” is executive produced by Howard Gordon, Brian Grazer, Manny Coto, Evan Katz and Sutherland.
Coto and Katz wrote the pilot, which was directed by Stephen Hopkins, who also serves as executive producer. The original series was created by Joel Surnow and Robert Cochran.
7 New Fall TV Shows Already in Ratings Trouble (Photos)
It happens every fall - some of the new broadcast shows just don't deliver. Here's a look at the offerings in trouble this season, along with their ratings averages over seven days in the crucial adults aged 18 to 49 demographic, according to Nielsen.
"Pitch" - 1.4 rating (average) It hasn't struck out yet, but Fox's baseball drama is having a tough time at the plate.
Fox
"Notorious" - 1.4 ABC's procedural is already one of the worst-reviewed shows of the year. Looks like viewers got the message.
ABC
"Conviction" - 1.0 Hayley Atwell leads a team trying to correct injustice on this ABC drama. Viewers have tried to stifle their yawns.
ABC
"Caught on Camera" - 0.6 Do viewers still love hidden-camera shows? Uh, not all of them, if this Nick Cannon-hosted concoction for NBC is any indication.
NBC
"Frequency" - 0.4
This CW heroine can speak to her dead father through a ham radio. Maybe he can explain why viewers haven't cared.
"No Tomorrow" - 0.4 There might not be a tomorrow for this CW show about two crazy kids facing the apocalypse.
The CW
"MadTV" - 0.2 OK, so maybe it wasn't a good idea to bring back the old sketch comedy show for The CW.
Look out – some of the series that broadcasters premiered with high hopes are struggling to lure viewers
