Eric (and I suspect the rest of 24’s fans are, too) is thrilled by the news that Jack Bauer will return in a prequel prior to the show’s return in 2009.

I’m extremely excited about this!  All of us fans have been waiting a tremendous amount of time to see Jack in action.  Now, in about six months, we will!

April’s going to be big.  Battlestar Galactica, Bones, ER, Grey’s Anatomy, & Ugly Betty (among others) are slated to return next month.  If you can’t wait until then, The Riches, Smallville, and How I Met Your Mother should be back on the air before the end of March.  Full list with start dates (as of February) at TV Guide.
