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:

      Nice rant! Expletive after expletive after expletive. Poor petal, I've touched a nerve. Would you like a tissue to wipe those tears away. Btw, nice one calling Neowin trash. Why would you stick around when you disrespect this site and the people behind it? Just go away if you feel that way.

      Internet Download Manager (IDM) 6.43 Build 1 by Razvan Serea Internet Download Manager (IDM) is a tool to increase download speeds by up to 8 times due to its smart dynamic file segmentation technology. Unlike other download managers and accelerators, Internet Download Manager segments downloaded files dynamically during download process, and it reuses available connections without additional connect and login stages to achieve the best possible acceleration performance. Comprehensive error recovery and resume capability will restart broken or interrupted downloads due to lost connections, network problems, computer shutdowns, or unexpected power outages. All popular browsers are supported IDM integrates seamlessly into Google Chrome, FireFox, Microsoft Edge, Opera, Safari, Internet Explorer, Maxthon and all other popular browsers to automatically handle your downloads. You can also drag and drop files, or use Internet Download Manager from command line. The program supports proxy servers, ftp and http protocols, firewalls, redirects, cookies, authorization, MP3 audio and video content processing. IDM includes web site spider and grabber IDM downloads all required files that are specified with filters from web sites, for example all pictures from a web site, or subsets of web sites, or complete web sites for offline browsing. It's possible to schedule multiple grabber projects to run them once at a specified time, stop them at a specified time, or run periodically to synchronize changes. Easy downloading with one click When you click on a download link in a browser, IDM will take over the download and accelerate it. You don't need to do anything special, just browse the Internet as you usually do. IDM will catch your downloads and accelerate them. IDM supports HTTP, FTP, HTTPS and MMS protocols. Changes in Internet Download Manager 6.43 Build 1: Added the ability to download MP4 files from web sites where previously only TS videos were available.

If you only need MP4 files, disable TS in IDM Options -> General tab -> Customize IDM Download panels in browsers -> Edit button. Remove TS extension on "Customize IDM Download panel in browsres" dialog Fixed video downloading problems on several popular web sites Fixed bugs Download: Internet Download Manager 6.43 Build 1 | 11.9 MB (Shareware) Links: Internet Download Manager Website | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

      This is of course "clickbait" WTF? It is literally your example but tech based. A "clickbait" title is a sensationalized headline designed to manipulate readers into clicking a link using things like "fear" rather than delivering objective facts. A "clickbait" headline also usually provides little value compared to the hype generated. How does this headline not qualify? It's a generic often reused headline that is overly sensationalized. Oh no! "millions" can't use this app anymore. It has no basic facts like what f*cking app. You read the article and it's the Samsung VPN which no one cares about and there is a million free VPNs. How are you defending this ######? Headlines like this (and among other things) make me read Neowin much less than I used to in the past. It's trash...
