Gregory Itzin returning to Fox's '24'
Actor set to reprise role as villainous ex-president
By Nellie Andreeva
One of "24's" favorite villains, former President Charles Logan, is
coming back.
Gregory Itzin, nominated for an Emmy for his role on the Fox real-time
drama, has signed for a multiepisode arc on the upcoming eighth
season.
The disgraced former president last was seen during Season 6
flatlining en route to a hospital after being stabbed by his wife,
Martha Logan (Jean Smart).
At the opening of Season 7, FBI agent Renee Walker (Annie Wersching)
told Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) that Logan is alive and under
house arrest, but he never was heard from again.
In the upcoming season, sitting President Taylor (Cherry Jones)
reluctantly enlists Logan to assist with an escalating international
diplomatic crisis.
"The opportunity for these two remarkable actors to share the stage
was simply too compelling to pass up," "24" executive producer/
showrunner Howard Gordon said.
The eighth season of "24" kicks off with a two-night, four-hour
premiere Jan. 17-18. Set in New York, it features a retired Bauer
unwillingly drawn back into the action after learning of a plot to
assassinate Middle East peacekeeper Omar Hassan (Anil Kapoor).
Other new cast members include CTU rookies Katee Sackhoff, Mykelti
Williamson and Freddie Prinze Jr., who join Wersching and veteran Mary
Lynn Rajskub.

Can we get a "V" inspired "24"? Lizard like aliens now use President
Logan and a puppy administration to rule the United States?

I'm already bored.

Other than the season when he was kidnapped by the Chinese at the end,
and traded back to the US in some sort of prisoner swap at the opening
of the season, has there been another season (other than the first
season) when he WASN'T retired from CTU? It seems every season in the
first 20 minutes when the terrorist plans start and somebody calls
Jack Bauer, whom is seen sitting around the house, the first thing out
of his mouth is that he is retired, and after some friend of his gets
whacked that he flies into action.
