    One thing Kiefer Sutherland didn't touch on but what I think is really important about 24, is that when this was being made, Hollywood actors looked down on tv shows and considered it a death rattle to their careers if they moved into tv. Kiefer Sutherland proved them wrong and helped to elevate the credibility of tv shows long before we had streaming services, to the point where they are arguable better entertainment than most movies now.

      I agree with this as well and honestly, up until recently with the rise of netflix, amazon prime and etc., I think it was generally agreed upon that movie stars never went into tv.
      It's amazing the impact that 24 had. When I was growing up, NO ONE was available when 24 was airing because everyone was watching it (this is back when if you didn't watch it live on TV, you weren't going to watch it until the DVD release or pirated it).
      I think another big step for TV actors is True Detective with Matthew M and Woodly Harrelson. It was one of the first TV series I saw a big time movie actor get involved.

    Kiefer is so underrated as an actor and you see here, what a great storyteller he is. 24 is one of my favourite TV shows of all time and Kiefer's performance in it is amazing. I frequently find myself going back and rewatching the series when I have a few days to spare. Equally, A Time to Kill is one of the most brutal, tragic and well-written stories I've ever seen converted to film. The actors in that movie are second to none and it is one of the few films I have scored a 10 on IMDb, because of the performance of the actors, the story and the way it plays with your emotions throughout. Matthew McConaughey is truly exceptional in that film.

      He did the facial capture for Venom Snake too, it's some of the best facial animation ever shown in a game. It had a great effect in showing the subtle nuances in how Kiefer is reacting. Especially given the fact Venom would be silent and reserved a lot, so that physicality was used to communicate as much as spoken language.

      I remember how season 5 was written, the unveiling of conspiracy masterminds has been stretched out till the last few episodes of the season while still retaining lots of action in every phase of the timeline. Its better than finding out who the bad guy is after 10 hours and then playing 'catch' with them until the end, its tough to keep it thrilling that way, and takes out a lot of mystery.
      I loved seasons 2 and 7 as well. When antagonists are driven by revenge and hatred, the story feels unbalanced, but when it is mixed with genuine greed for power and such, then its a much more dynamic plot. And lets not forget how important side plots are. For example, I enjoyed Kim's attempt to escape the blast zone in LA in season 2, it kinda felt like a crossover.

    I was born in 1980, so I really grew up watching him in a lot films. Few actors (maybe other than Jack Nicholson!) have been able to play such deplorable characters as Kiefer has and still be so loved by the public. He's taken some genuine risks in his career with characters whom many actors wouldn't be able to find the humanity in. That is a rare gift that few actors possess. If you've never seen Freeway, it's one of his most daring and underrated performances. I think Kiefer is one of our greats, and he seems to be a genuinely humble and fantastic human being. Hollywood could use more like him.

They'll say they didn't like a certain character because they found them irritating, mean, etc. The point of the character was to rub you the wrong way. The writers and director and actors did not want you to like that character. That's not why they're in the story. Good stories have an antagonist, otherwise it's an episode of Teletubbies.

    Thank you Mr. Sutherland for being a part of one of the best pieces of television art ever created. As long as mankind exists and watches classic TV masterpieces like "24" you will live forever

    Keifer as Snake in Metal Gear Solid V is greatly underrated. When the news that the OG voice actor of snake wasnt returning disappointed a lot of fans but Keifer in his own way didnt replace the original voice of snake, he refined it. i give a lot of credit for that

    The first time I saw Kiefer was in his first leading role in the 1984 Canadian movie, "The Bay Boy", which won a bunch of Canadian Genie awards, and Kiefer, still a teenager, was nominated in his category. (Getting the urge to watch it again.) To kind of bookend that, people should check out his mezmerizing performance of FDR in the mini-series, "First Lady" - extraordinary!

    Great actor. I know that Metal Gear Solid V isn't a movie or show, but I'd love to hear his experience voicing Snake.

    Fantastic actor just like his Dad. Kiefer is my favourite actor ever & The Lost Boys still remains my favourite film ever; over 30 years and will forever remain. Mr Sutherland, I adore you and everything you do x❤x

    The thing I enjoy about Kiefer is his ability to bring these characters to life. He said he was amazed that American audiences disliked him for a portrayal of a particular character. That speaks volumes about the job he did.
    Funny thing is I never like his characters immediately. It’s after seeing them more than once like 24 or rewatching a movie that I feel the depth

      Yes, I don't think he has quite that same experience of his fellow Canadians.
