24 (season 1)

The first season of the television series 24, titled Day 1, was first broadcast from November 6, 2001 to May 21, 2002. The season's storyline starts at 12:00 a.m. on the day of the California presidential primary.

Right now, terrorists are planning to assassinate a presidential candidate. My wife and daughter have been kidnapped... and people that I work with may be involved in both. I'm Federal Agent Jack Bauer, and this is the longest day of my life.
—Jack Bauer, introductory monologue for most episodes of the season. Note: This varies slightly between episodes; in some cases Jack says "missing", "in danger" or "targeted" instead of "kidnapped", and did not originally include his wife, Teri. He also uses "today" instead of "this" in some episodes.
