produced La Femme Nikita for USA
Cable. It ran for five years. I also did a
Wiseguy movie."
When he worked on The Equalizer,
Surnow was able to sneak a little Judaism
into one of the episodes. "I had the
Equalizer meet a guy in a synagogue," he
laughs, "in a beautiful old Orthodox syn-
agogue in New York," where the show
was filmed. "That was my little Jewish
contribution to the series."
While there won't be any Jewish con-
tributions on 24, Surnow is pleased
that Fox has agreed to air the whole
24-hour cycle, airing each episode four
nights a week through May.
"But we aren't thrilled with our pres-
ent Tuesday night time slot," he says.
"We are opposite Frasier and NYPD
Blue, two shows with very strong follow-
ings. Fans of those shows would be good
candidates for ours — they are people
who like good, smart adult television."
Still, Surnow and the cast and crew
need not spend too much time worrying.
Not only has 24 received critical acclaim,
it was recently nominated for two Golden
Globe Awards — one for Best Dramatic
Television Series and one for Keifer
Sutherland for Best Performance by an
Actor in a Dramatic Television Series.
"They told us about the possibility
of the Golden Globes nomination ear-
lier, but I forgot and it came out of
nowhere," Surnow says. "For us it
means more exposure for the show.
"I remember when The Practice won
some Emmys and Ally McBeal won a
Golden Globe, it really did help them
get better ratings. That's the bottom
line that we are looking for.
As Surnow continues to work on
this year's scripts, he's also waiting to
learn if 24 will be picked up for
another season. That information
should come in May.
'Although we don't know yet if there
will be a next season, we have lots of
ideas roaming around in our heads," he
says. "If we do come back, we know
there will be another 24-hour crisis. We
want to keep the show fresh and exciting.
"What we don't want to do is rehash
season No. 1, and do the same thing
all over again." ri
