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:

    • Microsoft hides these secret Windows 11 performance boost settings available on every PC

      I think every American should have a course in a 'dry sense of humour' at school; and perhaps 'using sarcasm in jest' oh, and also 'the use or irony in humour'. Slapstick is just about all Americans can understand. It's a pity, as this is the most basic of humour, that requires no thought at all. It's hilarious to watch a whole room collapse with laughter while yanks sit scratching their heads...
    • Major Xbox layoffs may claim South of Midnight developer Compulsion entirely

      What they really need to do is automatically spell "loses" and "lose" correctly since nobody seems to know how to anymore. Then they blame spellcheck/autocomplete and don't realize autocomplete is just filling in the word for them automatically so it was misspelled in the first place.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      If someone chooses to continue using SB and therefore goes through the manual intervention in the thread, afterwards the BSOD problem is gone. Whether they then re-enable the task doesn't matter, they're done, though on such machines it might pay to keep it disabled in case the next update (if there is a next) causes the same problem. OTOH, if someone disables SB in the BIOS, the problem is also gone. Incidentally, I noticed that this task exists even on machines that don't support SB. It's just installed across the board...and runs. Doing what on such machines is a little hazy.
