"24: Redemption" is now out on DVD!

Today, "24: Redemption" is out on DVD. Inside, not only will you get the 88-minute prequel to Season 7, but you'll also get (according to Amazon.com):

• Extended Edition "Creator’s Cut" featuring over ten minutes of never-before-seen footage (not shown in the television broadcast version)
• Behind-the-scenes "Making Of" documentary
• Children of War featurette
• Cast / Crew Commentary
• "24" Season 6 in Four Minutes featurette
• Season 7 Sneak Peek – First 16 minutes of the premiere episode

That last feature should be intriguing for those waiting for Season 7 to begin, as that won't be until Sunday, January 11, 2009. At the end of the "24: Redemption" television broadcast, they did show a few scenes from Season 7, but not nearly as much coverage. One thing I can tell you is that an old friend of Jack's who used to work at CTU (Counter-Terrorism Unit) and was even the head of CTU for a time returns after being thought of as dead for the past 1.5 years (since about halfway through Season 5). Except, from the previews, he seems to be the enemy, enough so where Jack throws him up against the wall and tells him (may not be exact words, but is pretty close if they're not exact), "You better be telling me the truth or I'll make sure you stay dead this time."

24: Redemption could make a great Christmas gift for someone you know. Or, perhaps, even buying the whole 6-season DVD package for a 24 fan or someone who has heard much about the show and enjoys good, quality television, but hasn't had time to get into the series, would make a great Christmas gift as well.
