BAUER BY NUMBERS.

THE FOLLOWING TAKES PLACE BETWEEN SEASON 1 AND SEASON 6.5.

Just watched the first half of the 24 season premiere. Still got a second hour before tonight. Not surprisingly Jack has to put his civilian/grandpa life on hold for another 24 hours of shooting people and blowing things up. Thankfully, Kimmy B. isn’t being stalked by a mountain lion in this one…so far. Also grateful I found this article posted on the UK Guardian site. Chock full of some interesting Bauer numbers for the first 6 and ½ seasons.

Total body count Bauer can notch on his bedpost for the first 6.5 season: 198

Amount of money it takes Kiefer to step in the role of Jack each season: 40 million-ish (probably more now)

Jack’s favorite time to kill: 51 minutes into every hour

To help keep continuity: Cast members get their hair trimmed every 5 days

Amount of time cast and crew needs to film 24 hours: 10 ½ months

The 1^st 5 seasons of 24 features: 67 torture scenes

Number of times Kim Bauer had been abducted in the first 6.5 seasons: 8
