Additionally, "24: Conspiracy," minute-long Mobisodes (mobile phone episodes), 12 episodes in all, were created in 2005 as a promotion for Season Four. The episodes were originally seen by cell phone users in Europe and later in the United States as part of a Fox promotion for the show.

for several years. Thus, FOX chose to air all 24 episodes, without any hiatuses, over 19 weeks beginning mid-season—with back-to-back episodes airing twice in the first week, and again at the season finale. Utilizing the extra time this opportunity afforded the writers, Season Four's later premiere date allowed the creators to go back to previous episodes and fill in continuity errors and plot holes, making the episode transitions more fluid and realistic.
and similar allegations at other U.S. military facilities housing suspected terrorists, commentators accused the show of legitimizing the use of torture in the war on terror. In an interview with Charlie Rose
, Kiefer Sutherland commented on the show's use of torture and how it relates to the recent controversies over government sanctioned torture. "Do I personally believe that the police or any of these other legal agencies that are working for this government should be entitled to interrogate people and do the things that I do on the show? No, I do not."
involving U.S. military personnel in Iraq.
Jack Bauer's belief ultimately prevents a nuclear attack, but there are several consequences to his actions:
When the season began, every character from the first three seasons was absent except for Jack Bauer, President Keeler (Palmer's Republican opponent in season 3), and Chloe O'Brian. However, as the season went on several characters returned, including Tony Almeida, Michelle Dessler, Mike Novick, David Palmer, Aaron Pierce, and Mandy, the assassin from seasons 1 and 2.
Season Four provided viewers with several new characters. One of the new characters, Erin Driscoll, is involved in a subplot that involves her daughter's schizophrenia
. Driscoll's daughter, Maya, ends up committing suicide. As a result, Driscoll leaves CTU.
The season featured many cast changes throughout the season, more so than previous seasons. The season began with Kiefer Sutherland, Kim Raver, Alberta Watson and William Devane as the main cast. Watson left after 12 episodes, Lana Parrilla—upgraded from recurring to the main cast in episode 6—was gone by episode 13, and Roger Cross was upgraded from recurring to the main cast in episode 18. Devane then left after episode 14 since he was filming for Stargate SG-1
at the time, and then returned for one episode later in the season.

Jack Bauer's moral choices
This season examines the consequences of Jack Bauer's belief that the end justifies the means. This question was relevant to U.S. politics and public opinion at the time of airing following the 2004 Abu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuseAbu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuse

- Audrey Raines is alienated from him first by his torture of Paul Raines and later causing his death by forcing the only available surgeon to stop work on Raines in order to save a suspect in critical condition.
- He has to fake his own death and assume a new identity because of the fallout from the operation at the Chinese Consulate, but mostly after Palmer warned him of an attempt on his own life.
