An upcoming DVD release in mid October from 20th Century Fox is the first half of 24: Season Four, starring Kiefer Sutherland as Counter Terrorist Unit operative Jack Bauer. In an interesting move which breaks the tradition of the complete season sets of the past, Fox has decided to split the release of this season in two, presumably to cash in on the hype surrounding the show before it subsides and potentially guard against lost revenue to internet file sharing.
Episodes one through twelve will arrive on October 12, 2005 with a range of special features that are yet to be named. Fox have also ensured consumers that the season four half-sets will incorporate the same packaging design of previous series. We'll bring you any more details when they arrive.
