Iran From: Rudy in Fox program development To: Tom in Fox programming The new season of "24" is off to a great start - and we think we've found a way to expand the brand through a reality outlet. Because of recruiting shortfalls by the US Army and National Guard, we've worked out a deal with Homeland Security to team up with us and the Boy Scouts of America to create a new series: "The Jack Bauer Merit Badge." Scouts will be selected to become the next Jack Bauer - and earning the badge will qualify any Boy Scout to be placed immediately in the field in Iraq, Afghanistan or, in the near future, Iran. Each week, the Scouts will face a new requirement toward earning the Jack Bauer Merit Badge. Here are some of the ideas we're tossing around: 1 Fire-building: Using only sticks and tinder, the Boy Scout must start a fire at an appointed campsite. Once the fire is established, the Boy Scout will use it to ignite the gasoline in the Scoutmaster's SUV, causing it to explode. Points will be awarded based on the size of the subsequent fireball. He must navigate the canoe through deadly rapids to the nearest occupied campsite, where he will use the paddle to render all inhabitants unconscious. He must catch a fish, which he will then use as a weapon to secure a car to return to civilization. Electricity: The Boy Scout must demonstrate proficiency and knowledge of wiring, while mastering the application of both automobile batteries and extension cords for extracting information via shocks. He must also show he is able to use electricity to revive an interrogation subject who has been questioned too vigorously. The Boy Scout may skip any single requirement of the Jack Bauer Merit Badge if he allows himself to be shocked back to life and, within the hour, eliminates his troopmates and operates a motor vehicle. Paul Abrams: Why "Mistake" Matters for '08 Comments : Refuse to watch fearmongering by a faux so-called news outles, ie Rupert's scam called "24." Watched some of 1st episode, and the guy gets out of jail in China , after being set up , and does superhuman things. abusive EuroMess - so I take it you missed the part where Bauer enters a house, rescues Dr. Bashir, and leaves with 4 or 5 guys, all while the entire government is watching on satellite w/ infrared, yet no one notices until an hour later?
