Whoa. Part of me is considering just taping this instead of dropping $60+ on the DVD set coming up later. I LOVED 24 during its first run, but the more I think about it, I don't know how much replay value I'd personally find in it. I'm thinking I can just rent the set from Blockbuster or something (*crosses fingers*) later on to check out the extras (which I really do want to see).

one minor problem about this, how are you gonna tape it if a tape lasts 10 hours at the most, and how long will the replay tv/tivo last.
also, what is good about the fx version is that we wont have the little stupid 30 second spoiler promo at the end. we just see the credits.

Then again, maybe I'll start hunting for a cheap drive I can pop into my TiVo to upgrade it.

for the cost of a cheap drive wouldn't it just be easier to pay the 45.00 when it is released? Plus isn't this supposed to be in DD with Anamorphic transfers?

True, a cheap drive would cost about the same, if not more... probably more... than just buying the set. However, if I did that, my TiVo would be upgraded for whatever else I wanted to record, rather than just having the 24 box set. DD & anamorphic is nice, and I like having those on the movies I watch... but I did without it on the first run of 24, and I could do without it on future viewings.

Will the 24 hour marathon start at Midnight and go untill midnight the next day? It would be awsome to do a 24 hour endurance marathon and watch the show in "real time".
How does sunrise and sunset work on the series? During which hour/episode are the transitions from night to day and day to night made?
