Exclusive : NBC may make time for "24"
Multiple sources confirm to me exclusively that 20th Century Fox has approached NBC about picking up the series should Fox opt to cancel it — and the Peacock is considering it. “There’s definitely some interest,” says an insider close to the talks.
Earlier this week, reports surfaced that 20th (a.k.a. the studio) and Fox (a.k.a. the network) are nearing a mutual decision to end the serial thriller after eight seasons due to declining ratings and rising costs.
A move to NBC — while still considered somewhat of a long shot given the hefty price tag — would likely delay 20th’s plans to launch a Jack Bauer film franchise. From a production standpoint, 24 execs have long maintained that it would ne next to impossible to make a movie while the series was still on the air.
Reps for 20th and NBC declined to comment.
What do you think? Should NBC swoop in and save the series? Or is it time for 24 to pack it in and head to the big screen? Sound off below!

"Will 24 Move To NBC"
Days ago both Michael Schneider at Variety and Josef Adalian at The Wrap reported Fox would likely dump 24, and that it was being shopped to NBC. More than a week ago James Hibberd talked to Angela Bromstad and quoted her on NBC’s interest in 24.
But those days ago and week+ ago reports be damned. It’s Friday March 12, and today that whole story is Michael Ausiello’s EXCLUSIVE. What a douche nozzle he can be.
It sure seems to me that there’s no new news here. Fox was already shopping it to NBC and NBC was already at least interested enough to discuss it. I remain doubtful that Fox will strike a deal with NBC. The reason Fox isn’t interested in it itself is because of increasing costs and diminishing ratings. NBC needs to find its own hits rather than riding someone else’s long-in-tooth retreads into the ground.
However, it’s possible Fox (the studio) could cut NBC a sweetheart of a deal that changes my thinking. One additional reason Fox (the broadcast network) wasn’t interested is it needs that slot after House to try to launch a new series (I think it was Adalian who reported that — it might have been Schneider or Hibberd, too, but it definitely wasn’t Ausiello).
That makes some sense, and 24 was still a relatively strong DVD seller last season. I don’t see Fox offering it to NBC for dimes on the dollar, but I could see Fox at least discounting it a bit hoping to make it back up in DVD, syndication and any international licensing.
