that on some TV shows now when they say a phone number instead of it being "555" they say "597"? They've said it a couple of times on "24" this season and I thought I heard it on some other show or movie recently.

Random question I know but Bandit was complaining about there not being any posting going on this morning

That should keep him busy for a least and hour...

hmm odd.. are you sure those arent REAL numbers?

a quick google of that number shows plenty of real businesses using it

When I lived in IL my phone number started with 597. I hadn't noticed it on tv though.

24 has a fan hotline. Frequently when they say or display a number, you can call it.

ive never watched the show but what area is the show based in?? like is it in NYC? is there a NYC area code with 597??

310-597-3781 fan line it goes nowhere. who speaks spanish?

CTU is in Los Angeles, but the show doesn't just take place there.

EDIT: CTU = Counter Terrorist Unit btw.

its just will they be able to speak english so they will have some sorta idea why i want them to call the number..
