Actress Janeane Garofalo will be joining the cast of 24 when it starts back up in January:
The political left and the political right are going to meet on Fox’s “24″ this coming season.
Actress-comedian Janeane Garofalo, an outspoken liberal, is set to co-star on the conservative-leaning real-time drama, whose co-creator/executive producer Joel Surnow jokingly describes himself as a “right-wing nut job.”
On the Imagine TV/20th Century Fox TV series, Garofalo will play a government agent who is part of the team investigating the crisis befalling Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland) and company in the upcoming season.
No word on whether she’ll be another CTU red shirt.

Maybe she can be shot during the two-hour season premier by a blind Ricky Schroder.

I just made my decision to go back to watching 24 on DVD a year later…
Thanks for giving me my Mondays back.
