24 will apparently be shot in an exotic location next season; Washington DC.

And spoilers?

Bauer’s day gets off to a shocking start when former colleague Tony Almeida (played by Carlos Bernard), last seen in Day 5, returns after being left for dead by a terrorist conspirator in CTU’s infirmary.”

Say wha?! “Tony’s uncertain fate… left the door open for his return,” explains exec producer Howard Gordon. “And since there was no silent clock at the conclusion of his last appearance — the 24 tribute to a major character’s demise — we always kept this as a possibility.” Indeed, it was widely rumored (and, I believe, perhaps even filmed) that Tony was to resurface in the final seconds of last season.

Carlos Bernard should thank his agent they didn’t waste Almeida’s return on Day Six. 

Wait until you-know-who finds out that wife Michelle herself is alive, and working as a chaplain at ER‘s County General!

I think we’ll find out that Audrey was really catatonic during Days 2-5, too…
