Season 6 - W. Palmer Presidency in its early months. Palmer incapacitated by mid-day ascending VP Daniels. Palmer is the first President to be elected in since Keeler over four years ago. Takes place in June 2013
Redemption: President-elect Taylor's Inaguration Day. Friday January 20, 2017.
Season 7 - Takes place sometime in early 2017.
(These dates will be shifted four years earlier if you believe 24's first season took place in the "past" from when it started airing rather than the future. As 24 premirered in 2001. So it either takes place a year or so in the "past" in 2000 during those elections or four years in "the future" during the 2004 elections. Most likely it takes place in "the future" as CTU seems like an entity that'd be created in the wake of 9/11.)
Gotta love her freckles, too.
Darn lickable.
Hard to believe that she was Odo's 'Daughter' in that Season 2 episode of Enterprise where everyone but her was a hologram.
Good, steady start for Season 7.
He is. Poor guy almost died apparently.
Ouch. That's awful. 
Ah, well.
Isn't my face red, then.
Yeah, poor guy.
Isn't my face red, then.
Yeah, poor guy.

Not for me. So far Janis always looks like she's got a nervous twitch or a schoolgirl's crush. No verdict on her as yet.
I had never seen her before (Annie Wersching), but I was smitten almost immediately by the red hair and the freckles, not to mention the character seems to be more than competent but a good measure of sensibility, too.Thanks to those who mentioned her name, IMDB tells me I knew her first as Diana Bloom in Journeyman's second episode, "Friendly Skies." She played a woman who, in the 70s, gave birth in an airplane 30,000 feet over Lake Tahoe.
Well, he IS a Necromonger after all.
And we're off!
Only thing she's hiding is a nice set.
Jack wants the secrecy of CTU out in the open so he can seek public approval for his actions. It's not an act of moral conscience. He openly admits he doesn't regret a thing. And Kurtwood Smith's character is being played up all too much as a villain for his statements to be confused with those of the show. Combine that with the scene in the car where the FBI officer expresses his admiration for Jack, and you're not seeing much of a "liberal" bent at all. At least I'm not.
Just my two cents, though. The closest the show could be confused with liberal (since the end of season two) was in season five, since the plot was about a presumably Republican President who aided terrorists in order to trump up reasons to invade Asia in order to control their oil supply.
And, regardless, it's still fun as hell. I mean, shit, Tony's back!
Hee hee. The "see" "I" "pee" device.
I'm still stoked Janine Garofalo is on this show!
Man, I've got so many hots for her!
Man, I've got so many hots for her!
Man, they executive-produce the HELL out of this show!
Uh-oh!
"We don't have a lot of time!" Madame President, you've stolen Jack's line!
"We don't have a lot of time!" Madame President, you've stolen Jack's line!
"I'm going to have to lift up your shirt. We need to make our beefcake quotas for Fox Mondays."
Heh heh. "Is that comfortable for you?" I like Janis.
Not to me.
