Abstract
Academic literature on movies and television series produced in Hollywood documents that they are often represented in a stereotype and negative manner. The television series 24 may not be an exception. 24 has been criticized by Muslim groups in the United States and byprominent people with a Muslim background. This article sets out to investigate whether such criticism can be justified by analysing how a Muslim family, living in Los Angeles as a sleeping terror cell, is represented in the series.
