Buy 24 Season 7 DVD now

Here’s a rundown disc-by-disc of what to expect:

Disc One:

8:00 AM – 9:00 AM (Optional commentary by executive producer/director John Cassar and Carlos Bernard.)

9:00 AM – 10:00 AM

10:00 AM – 11:00 AM (Optional commentary by executive producer Manny Coto, co-executive producer Brannon Braga and Carlos Bernard.)

11:00 AM – 12:00 PM

The Femucite Festival Presents: The Music of 24

Regarding the commentary on disc one, it is simply phenomenal. Carlos Bernard is so fun to listen to and I consider it some of the best commentary from any season of 24. Regarding the bonus feature, you’ll probably enjoy it if you enjoy the musical score from the show. Sean Callery is a genius!

Disc Two:

12:00 PM – 1:00 PM (Optional commentary by executive producer/director John Cassar and Annie Wersching.)

1:00 PM – 2:00 PM

2:00 PM – 3:00 PM

3:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Disc Three:

4:00 PM – 5:00 PM (Optional commentary by executive producer David Fury and Hakeem Kae-Kazim.)

5:00 PM – 6:00 PM (Optional commentary by executive producer Manny Coto, co-executive producer Brannon Braga and Annie Wersching.)

6:00 PM – 7:00 PM

7:00 PM – 8:00 PM (Optional commentary by co-executive producer/director Brad Turner and Tony Todd.)

Again, the commentary with both Hakeem Kae-Kazim (Ike Dubaku) and Tony Todd (General Juma) is fun to listen to. I always enjoy listening to the bad guys provide commentary because you get the impression that these are generally nice, genuine people as opposed to the characters they portray.

Disc Four:

8:00 PM – 9:00 PM (Optional commentary by co-executive producer/director Brad Turner, music composer Sean Callery and James Morrison.)

9:00 PM – 10:00 PM (Optional commentary by executive producer Evan Katz, co-executive producer Juan Carlos Coto, Annie Wersching and Bob Gunton.)

10:00 PM – 11:00 PM

11:00 PM – 12:00 AM

Disc Five:

12:00 AM – 1:00 AM

1:00 AM – 2:00 AM (Optional commentary by executive producer Howard Gordon, Carlos Bernard and Jeffrey Nordling.)

2:00 AM – 3:00 AM

3:00 AM – 4:00 AM

Hour 19: The Ambush

Disc Six:

4:00 AM – 5:00 AM

5:00 AM – 6:00 AM (Optional commentary by executive producer Evan Katz, Mary Lynn Rajskub and Glenn Morshower.)

6:00 AM – 7:00 AM (Optional commentary by executive producer David Fury, co-executive producer Alex Gansa and Glenn Morshower.)

7:00 AM – 8:00 AM (Optional commentary by executive producers Howard Gordon and John Cassar.)

14 Deleted Scenes (Optional commentary by co-executive producer Stephen Kronish and producer Paul Gadd.)

24-7: The Untold Story

I believe the bonus features and especially episode commentary are nicely done even if watched only once out of curiosity. (I think, to date, the only bonus feature I’ve watched literally hundreds of times was the 100th Episode Reel from season five’s bonus disc.) Most people will probably buy this DVD for the season itself and if that’s the case, you’ll be pleasantly surprised with the packing job. However, if you’re buying the seventh season on DVD, you’re probably a diehard fan and intend on watching the extra content as well.

While the bonus stuff is nice, I do think it lacked somewhat as I believe they could have added maybe one more feature to one of the three discs that lacked extra content. My other disappointment was that it doesn’t provide a list of the original airdates like past 24 season DVD releases nor does it include the episode synopsis for each episode. That aside, the packaging presentation is wonderfully thought out and this will definitely make a nice compact addition to your 24 collection.
