I'm almost certain Tony isn't really bad, but just working undercover for someone/group.
Certainly wouldn't make much sense having him be bad (I could see him being pissed and wanting revenge, etc, but I can't see him not caring about hurting innocent people)

this is terrible News!!! god with all of the crap that has been happening with the production of season 7 now this, will it ever see the light of day
"I Will Scream my Lungs out 'til it fills this Room "
" I Will Feel Alive as Long as I am Free"
"Are We Getting SomeThing Out Of this All Encompassing Trip? Makes Much More Sense To Live In The Present Tense"
I probably won't watch this season. Last season was disappointing and while Tony was cool, his coming back makes the show lose a ton of credibility. Henderson killed him off, supposedly. Why not bring back David Palmer, Christopher Henderson or Nina while they're at it?

While I agree bring back Tony is a bit of a stretch it isn't nearly as bad as bringing back people that were obviously killed (Palmer, Henderson, Nina). When Tony was stabbed, he collapsed, Jack found him (didn't check a pulse or anything), just hugged him and cried. Then he didn't even get the silent clock that almost every main death has gotten. There was no follow up after that scene to show Tony was definitely dead. Shit I think after that episode there might have only been 1 mention of Tony and that was when Jack shot the shit out of Henderson.
- Kiefer Sutherland was sentenced to 48 days in jail for racking up a second drunken driving arrest in three years and immediately reported to a lockup.
The star of the television drama "24" arrived at the city jail and was being processed Wednesday evening, said Glendale, Calif., police officer John Balian
With this writers strike, he has pleny of time to serve his sentence.
There are rumors that 24 will split up season 7 into 2 halfes of 12 episodes. One airing late spring, the other in the fall. The other rumor, depending on the length of the strike of course, all of season 7 gets pushed all the way back to the fall.

Season 7 begins January 2009.
Oh well... plenty of time to make it an excellent season.
'Fox's "24" will be returning in the fall, after all.
The producers of the Emmy-winning series are developing a two-hour "prequel" to the upcoming seventh season.
The movie, designed to bridge the two-year gap between Seasons 6 and 7, is targeted to air in the fall, leading to the January return of the real-time drama. On Wednesday, "24" producers began securing the show's core cast members for the film.
"24" was one of the biggest casualties of the writers strike. Three days into the work stoppage, Fox decided against airing a partial season of the serialized drama with the eight episodes produced before and during the first weeks of the strike.
Each season of "24" is a closed arc that takes place in real time over a 24-hour period. The upcoming seventh season is set in Washington and features the first female U.S. president, played by Cherry Jones.
At the end of the writers strike, there were rumblings about a possible split of the seventh season into two parts to air in the fall and in midseason. But Fox was quick to put those rumors to rest, reiterating that the show's scheduling pattern will remain intact with a January launch.
The "24" writing team is back at work, with filming on the remaining episodes of the seventh season slated to begin in April. Missing from the writers room is the series co-creator/executive producer Joel Surnow, who left at the end of the strike. Since the fifth season, "24" has been run by exec producer Howard Gordon.
Fox and 20th Century Fox TV, which produces the series with Imagine TV, declined comment Wednesday. '
I can't believe it has been almost a year since I have seen a new episode of 24. Hopefully this longer break will lead to a much better season 7. I wasn't too crazy about season 6.
Fans have been waiting almost a year for the return of "24." On Sunday, November 23 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), the wait will be over as Fox presents a special two-hour prequel event.
Shot on location in South Africa, Jack Bauer battles an international crisis, while here at home the nation prepares for a new president on inauguration day. Taking place just a few months before the new day dawns, the prequel will set the stage and raise the stakes for Season 7.
"We're excited about the prequel because it explores Jack's complex emotional state of mind and still has all the signature excitement and suspense that fans have come to expect from '24,'" commented executive producer Howard Gordon. "Shooting in South Africa affirms everyone's commitment to making this season especially memorable for our fans."
Celebrating its 150th episode this season, the series has resumed production on "Day 7" and will unfold without interruption in its regular time period Mondays (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) beginning in January 2009.
Set in Washington, DC, "Day 7" finds CTU dismantled and Jack Bauer on trial. Bauer's day takes an unexpected turn when former colleague Tony Almeida (Carlos Bernard) returns. Meanwhile, President Allison Taylor (Cherry Jones) leads the country alongside White House Chief of Staff Ethan Kanin (Bob Gunton) and First Gentleman Henry Taylor (Colm Feore).
A national security crisis prompts an investigation by a team of FBI agents including Agent Janis Gold (Janeane Garofalo), Agent Renee Walker (Annie Wersching), Agent Larry Moss (Jeffrey Nordling), Agent Sean Hillinger (Rhys Coiro) and security specialist Michael Latham (John Billingsley). Although CTU is no longer, Chloe O'Brian (Mary Lynn Rajskub) and Bill Buchanan (James Morrison) are back for another momentous day of shocking events.
As part of News Corp.'s global commitment to fighting climate change, "24" has pledged significant and innovative changes to its production practices with the goal of saving energy and reducing carbon emissions.
Created by Joel Surnow and Robert Cochran, "24" is a production of Real Time Productions and Imagine Television in association with 20th Century Fox Television. Howard Gordon, Evan Katz, Jon Cassar, Manny Coto, David Fury, Kiefer Sutherland and Brian Grazer are the executive producers.
It was a somewhat brief performance, perhaps just one episode. But he was the detective questioning Julia Miliken after her husbands death.

Comments
I don't recall exactly. I remember Heller being absent for several episodes, I thought flying somewhere, but I don't recall the destination
Agreed, he plays a great anything, just an awesome actor.
Certainly wouldn't make much sense having him be bad (I could see him being pissed and wanting revenge, etc, but I can't see him not caring about hurting innocent people)
.....but with 24 I guess you never know
