Westone Laboratories, Inc. was recently contacted by the producers of the television show "24" to create a prop in-ear communication device for use in the series.
"24" is one of the most highly acclaimed dramatic series of the season. The unique premise is that the entire season takes place over one 24 hour period, and each episode represents an hour in that day. The producers were looking for a communication device that character Jack Bauer (actor Keifer Sutherland) could take out of his briefcase and insert in his ear. With over 40 years of experience in custom fit products for the ear, and broad product development expertise, Westone was the producers' logical choice.
"24" is broadcast Tuesday nights on Fox. Westone's creation is scheduled to appear in Episodes 17 and 18 (hours 5 - 6 pm and 6 - 7 pm of the 24 hour period), airing April 2, 2002 and April 9, 2002. Check local listings for channel and show time in your area.
