What year was the CTU created? Who played President Palmer in Season Five? Who killed Teri Bauer at the end of Season One? These questions and more are featured in a 24 quiz written by our illustrious leader Joel for Parade.com. I thought I knew 24 pretty well, but Joel managed to throw in a few trick questions that led me astray. Or then again, maybe I just don't know 24 as well as I thought I did. Nah, I think it's the trick questions.
Also featured on Parade.com is a nice little Q&A with Kiefer Sutherland, in which he talks about the possibility of a 24 movie, Barack Obama becoming President, and why he cried buckets over Bambi.
But first, take the quiz and report back on how you did. I'm not even going to admit my pathetic score. It's Joel's trick questions - yeah, that's it.

this Quiz is bad. For instance, the Question about who played President Palmer in Season 5 is answered wrong with Dennis Haysbert. But ist is Dennis Haysbert. . He get's shot by a sniper in the first Episode, which leads to another question regarding his death where it says he's been killed by an biological Attack ( referring to Season 2 ) but he's not actually killed back then.
Another Thing is the phrasing. there is a Question about who's behind the nerve gas attack in season 5. This can be answered with both Vladimir Bierko AND President Logan.

I had Jon Toomey take the quiz and he pointed that out to me. The Parade folks are fixing things up as we speak... just a typo, folks (the five/six thing, anyway).

I got 19 right not counting the 2 in question, the Bierko/Logan and the Prez Palmer assassination.

I got 24/25 (missed the one about the set of season 2, argh).
Of course, the questions on future 24 quizzes will be far more difficult, like "Why was the 24 writers' room called the Calcutta Cricket Club?" or "What are the visual references to Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah?"

22-25 — Congrats! Forget Tony Almeida, you're Jack's new go-to
I got all the answers that regarded 24. I don't see why I should know stuff like NFL teams ownership of guest stars families and stuff... still a pretty easy (and funny) quiz.

I stopped taking the quiz after the first six questions. Every time it refreshed it put a new pop-under ad up. I had ten or eleven Netflix windows under the main window. Bad website! Bad!
