Probably make it easier to produce with 12 episodes. They won't have to worry about "real-time" any more. I'm reading a book right now about the best shows of the last 10 years and there's a chapter on 24. It said the creators practically made it up as they went because the schedule was so hectic -- that's how the Kim/Cougar thing happened.
The Revolution was Televised -- great book if you like TV.
