"should have been named 16:39"
on DVD release admits Fox |

20th
Century Fox is to recall all of the DVD boxed sets of 24 after a court
ruled the title is misleading.
The
television program is named 24 as it follows events in the life of an agent
in real-time over a 24 hour period.
However,
as the adverts are not included with the DVD set, the show only lasts 16 hours
39 minutes, leaving a whole 7 hours 21 minutes unaccounted for.
Complainants
in the lawsuit successfully argued that calling the DVD boxed set 24 was
therefore misleading.

Century Fox have agreed to fill up the missing 7 hours 21 minutes with extra scenes
which will see Jack Bauer, played by Keifer Sutherland:
