Following the same real-time format as predecessors "24" and "24: Live Another Day," "24: Legacy" follows Sgt. Eric Carter as he joins forces with former National Director of CTU Rebecca Ingram in a race to prevent a major terrorist attack on U.S. soil. After leading an elite squad of Army Rangers in a mission to kill terrorist leader Ibrahim Bin-Khalid, a fatwa declared against the team members and their families by the Shiekh's followers forces Carter into federal witness protection. An attack on Carter's life makes it clear that their identities have been exposed, leading him to enlist Ingram's help. The two uncover a terrorist network that leaves them questioning who they can trust.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

24: Legacy offers well-acted escapism, yet this reboot also inherits many of its predecessor's flaws, and an early narrative rut signals a missed opportunity for reinvention.

Eric Deggans NPR 11/26/2019
The first three episodes of "24: Legacy" will feel more like a missed opportunity, a chance for reinvention, which instead delivered a lot that we've seen before. Go to Full Review Jonathan Pile Empire Magazine 11/07/2017
4/5
Previously the one ever-present, the prospect of 24 without Bauer initially feels like The Sopranos without Tony. It's a bold move. Go to Full Review Aramide Tinubu Shadow and Act 04/12/2017
The nostalgic aspects of 24 Legacy will rope OG fans in and Hawkins' charisma will keep new fans intrigued. Go to Full Review Carolyn Hinds Black Girl Nerds 08/05/2021
As each episode progresses, we see Corey Hawkins grow as an actor. Go to Full Review Isaac Feldberg Cut Print Film 12/16/2020

Like its predecessor, Legacy is an incredulity-stretching exercise in adrenaline, a pulse-pounding caper with little narrative meat on its all-American bones but a whole lot of action-cliché gristle in its teeth. Go to Full Review Rosalynn Try-Hane Battle Royale With Cheese 08/20/2018
There's enough to keep me interested just about and the writers know that. But at the end of the day if you miss Kiefer you miss Kiefer. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Evan W @Athltspirit 03/16/2024 The only thing the same as 24 is the ticking clock, the events in real time, and Tony Almeida as a guest star. Most of the acting and story line is sub-par at best. I felt myself cringing frequently while watching. This spinoff or whatever it is has no comparison to 24, and in my humble opinion it’s a complete miss. Save your time and just rewatch 24. See more Dave C @RT09838700 08/04/2023 Yeah, they should have stopped at ‘Day 9'/24: Live Another Day See more Brian A @BeardedBrian 05/17/2023 No Jack Bauer No 24. See more 03/11/2021 utter garbage end to end See more 07/16/2020 Should have left this one alone. 24 introduced an interesting concept in its maiden season and kept us on the edge of our seat for a few more seasons... but it sure didn't warrant a reboot. See more 07/13/2020 absolutely awful reboot of a fantastic show See more Read all reviews
