24 -- A New Character and the Return of Some Old Favorites

Posted by Lorie Byrd
Published: March 12, 2007 - 6:33 PM

No new episode of Prison Break tonight, but a new "24" airs.

The past couple weeks of "24," in my opinion, have been a bit boring (until the last few minutes of each, anyway). Tonight, however, previews reveal we will get the long anticipated (by me anyway) introduction of Ricky (Silver Spoons/NYPD Bliue) Schroeder and the return of former First Lady Martha and her beloved Secret Service Agent Aaron. That's plenty of reason to tune in at 9 p.m. EDT.

(I read an incorrect listing for Prison Break earlier and included it in the original post here. Prison Break is not on my television tonight, but at the Fox "24" site it still says that tonight's episode of "24" follows a new Prison Break. I corrected the post above when I saw that Prison Break was not coming on.) Update: Finally got through to the Prison Break site and it says new episodes will return March 19. Yea.

I saw a listing for Prison Break somewhere earlier tonight. I am almost sure it was at one of the Fox Network sites saying a new episode of 24 following Prison Break tonight. Then I remembered that last week, I think, was either the season finale or the last new episode for a while. I will check the Prison Break site. Anyway, I have corrected the post. Sorry for the let down. House is really good too though.

I was watching that little girl getting ready to do her dive and trying to figure out who she belonged to in Prison Break. And when I saw the guy on the ground bleeding, I thought maybe it was a sniper. I know House is supposed to be good, but I watched it one time, and I just didn't like him, so I don't watch it. Love Bones, though. I do wish they wouldn't juggle shows around so much. Still, I do think it's great that Fox offers new shows after the first of the year instead of reruns.

Ricky Schroeder appeared for about 3 seconds last week. I regret watching that Larry King Live season intro a month or so back. They sort of implied he had a big part, so I guess that starts tonight. Also on LKL, that douchebag Bill Buchanan jokingly claimed the 24 soundtrack had subliminal messages in it to keep it interesting.

Grandfather Bauer is going to be the incestuous father of Josh Bauer, just you watch.
