    Filming for the new season of 24 is to be suspended for 18 days while the show's team works on revisions to scripts.

    The pause in production begins on September 25, when episode 18 has been completed, and will run until October 9. It will not affect plans for the launch of season seven in January, however.

    Executive producer Howard Gordon made the decision because he was concerned about the quality of upcoming scripts, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

    Work on the Fox thriller resumed in April following a break in production caused by the WGA strike. There had previously been filming hiatuses in summer 2007 after producers decided to make changes to the season's plot.

    Lead actor Kiefer Sutherland, who plays Jack Bauer, promised earlier this year that the forthcoming season will be the best yet

    As long as they're halted to make things right I don't mind.

    It's a good sign they will be finished writing and filming the series before it airs. Previous seasons always seemed to go off on different tangents halfway through as they were making it up as they went along.
