Kiefer Sutherland has revealed that he tried not to use his catchphrase on 24.

The actor, who played Jack Bauer on the show, explained that he avoided saying "dammit" when he realised that it was part of a 24 drinking game.

The challenge involved drinking a shot every time Jack used the phrase. However, Sutherland admitted that when he first heard about the game, he said the word more often.

"I did one I thought would be funny," he told The Sun. "I said 'dammit' four or five times but thought, 'That's going to kill somebody'. I actually tried to curtail the 'dammits'."

The final episode of 24 aired in the US earlier this week. The show continues in the UK on Sunday at 9pm on Sky1.

What a joke, the producers said that the show will come to a conclusion and that we wont be left hanging which is exactly what it didnt do, what happened to President Taylor, what happened to Logan, Suvarov, Jack etc........................ i know they left it open for a movie but damn what an unsatisfying ending.

While it wasn't crazy intense it was a nice finale. President Taylor resigned, Logan is a vegetable, Suvarov likely bailed before **** hit the fan, and Jack, well Jack is fleeing the country, probably somewhere in Europe, hello 24 movie plotline. The only thing they didn't really clear up was whether or not the news about the russian conspiracy got out, which we can pretty much assume it did. The finale could have been better, but it could have been a whole lot worse. It was a fitting way to end the series.

There was one thing that bothered me. Logan kills Pillar right before he shoots himself. Why? I mean, sure he was an ass but that wasn't necessary, especially considering how loyal he had been to Logan. Seemed really out of character.

Thats a very good point about him killing Pillar. Guess they just wanted that character wrapped up.

The only reason why logan killed pillar is probably cause he wanted Jack dead badly and did not want pillar to told president taylor where was jack.

Dunno why he would hide himself in Europe since the Russian will be looking for him.

Here is an idea for a 24 movie

How about they combine the world of 24 with the world of Taken. I think both projects are owned by fox.

I guess the only issue is that his wifes new husband use to be the director of CTU, but wouldn't it be awesome to see Jack and Liam Neeson working together.

That'd work well... Russians kidnap Kim before Chloe can get her put into protective custody / WitSec.

Maybe that's what we'll see in '12: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1598754/

It's make sense as Liiam had a extensive background and was one hell of a badass. But they wouldn't want to split the screen time I think. Both can hold their own. Although the premise would be good if they kidnapped Kim and Jack had to go get her.

And just as Jack is about to save her, she's dead. :devil:

      I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.

      CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
