24 People To Watch in 2024

Well, you've seen our ditch list. Now, in no particular order, here is our annul watch list. Enjoy!

Elon Musk - So daring, so unpredictable, so defiant - what’s not to love? We can’t wait to see what’s next.


Nikki Haley - Big Year for her and she’ll know quite early whether she’s headed for the Top Spot or something else. Don’t count her out!


Eddie Redmayne - This superb Oscar-winning actor is headed to Broadway in the audacious new version of the musical Cabaret —  and it couldn’t be more relevant!


Dave McCormick - Can a Republican win statewide in Pennsylvania any more. We’re about to find out.


Robert F, Kennedy, Jr. - It’s more than just the name. This guy crosses all political boundaries and can cut into both Democrat and Republican voting blocks. Formidable! 


Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively - They’re talented. They’re refreshingly real. They’re funny. They’re hard working and hugely successful. And they’re lots of fun to watch.


Elise Stefanik - This year’s big Profile In Courage, she made Ivy League university presidents look like lilliputians. This woman is dynamite — and she’s just getting started!


Trey Yingst - The breakaway success story of 2024, this indefatigable Fox News reporter went right into the Israeli/Hamas war danger zones to deliver the year’s best coverage. Look for him to move up rapidly.


Aaron Rodgers - The NFL’s resident Bad Boy always makes for good copy, even when he’s not in the game. Just imagine what he’ll be able to do once he’s recovered from his injury and back in action.


Maria Bartoromo - Now celebrating 30 years on the air, she’s still the best damned reason to turn the TV on every morning! Not only is she entertaining and thought-provoking but if you pay attention, you can fatten your wallet.


Nate Bargatze - You don’t know who he is? You’re missing out! One of today’s funniest and most family-friendly comedians, he puts the human back in humor. And does it all without being shrill or neurotic. 


William and Kate - They’re everyone’s favorite royals and, in many respects, the future of the monarchy rests on their shoulders. Moving forward, they’re eminently watchable!


Chris Christie - Still one of the most compelling pols out there but now we must ask, what is his end game? What he does in the first couple of months of the new year could make all the difference, especially if Haley begins closing in on Trump.

Kristi Noem - Said to be high on the list of possible Trump VP choices. She’s smart, successful and very appealing but what about those reports of a scandalous relationship with former Trump advisor Corey Lewandowski? Stay tuned!


Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett - These two are critical swing votes on the newly aligned US Supreme Court. Which way they go on big key decisions ahead will make all the difference.


Mike Johnson - Mr. Speaker has been a great boost for the GOP — seemingly the right leader at the right place at the right time. But will he be able to navigate this critical election year?


Michelle Yeoh - This Oscar winner has proven that a late bloomer can have it all, and then some. Look for her to shine in additional starring roles in ’24.


Tim Scott - He’s articulate, sensible and responsible. He’s conducted himself superbly and knew when to bow out. There are bigger things ahead.


Austin Butler - One of America’s most exciting young actors, he quickly garnered a Golden Globe and an Oscar nomination.  In the new year look for him in the Apple TV epic Master of the Air about WWII fighters who risk their lives with the 100th Bomb Group, a brotherhood forged by courage, loss, and triumph.


Lawrence Jones (pictured) - This Texas native rose quickly to become a Fox weekday co-host and one of the most likable and engaging on-air personalities. This guy’s got his finger on the pulse of America, especially its small towns and forgotten communities.


Shohei Ohtani - Is the highest paid baseball player of all time  (who is also notoriously private and hard to cozy up to) really worth all that money? We’re about to find out.


Clint Eastwood - At 93 he’s directing a new movie, Juror Number Two. His body of work is breathtaking and his life is inspiring. One of Hollywood’s original mavericks he’s never wavered.


Greta Van Susteren - She doing some of her best work ever weeknights on the Newmax TV Network. A former criminal defense and civil trial lawyer and a renowned journalist, she tackles big issues fairly and in-depth. Worth watching!
