Last season Fox's 24 was halted twice because of production and then finally the clock stopped was by the WGA stricke. Fast forward today and once again the clock has stopped from production according to
EW.
After the completion of episode 18 on Sept. 15, production on Fox's hit drama 24 will shut down until October 9th while the writers reshape the upcoming season's creative direction — specifically the transition leading to the end game. "We had a couple of scripts that we weren't happy with," 24 exec producer Howard Gordon tells EW.com. "We just couldn't get this direction to work, and we found another one that we liked better, so we wound up retooling it.
Gordon went on to say the show is not in trouble, but looks like this will be the last season of the show when not even a year off can solve the problems that need to be fixed.
