Fans, Beware: '24' Returns Sunday and Monday

Jack Bauer will be saving the world from evil men once again starting tonight, as the new season of '24' kicks off. He'll be fighting off the evil domestic terrorist attacks for two hours every Monday, including tomorrow.
As you probably know, each season covers the events of a 24 hour period in the life of federal agent Jack Bauer (played by Sutherland). Day 6 is currently in production, and will begin airing today, January 14, 2007, and tomorrow, January 15, 2007, with a two-night, four-hour season premiere on Fox. The sixth day will premiere in the UK & Ireland on January 21, 2007.
The trailer for Day 6 was released October 24, 2006 at 3 pm EST at Times Square in New York City, and on the internet.
FOX will release a Season 6 Premiere DVD on January 16th. This DVD contains the first 4 episodes of 24 season 6, and a preview of episode 5. The DVD leaked on Saturday, January 6th, eight days before the season premiere, to BitTorrent and other P2P networks.
The fifth season ended with Bauer having been captured by Chinese government agents.

According to Wikipedia, (warning, spoilers ahead!), Day/Season 6 starts and ends at 6:00 AM. Twenty months after Jack's capture by Chinese agents, the President has negotiated his release. A rash of suicide bombings have struck the United States, and the President has struck a deal with a man named Fayed. In exchange for the location of the mastermind behind the string of attacks, the President has agreed to pay a large sum of money and deliver Jack to Fayed, whose brother died at Jack's hand. As an emotionally-scarred Jack attempts to stay alive, he and CTU discover a more elaborate plot that may threaten not only Los Angeles, but the whole nation.
