This is the biggest news story to hit certifiedrandom in the past year.  Kiefer Sutherland just signed a new contract with 20th Century Fox for 3 more years for $40 Million Dollars for playing Jack Bauer on 24.  That is the LARGEST contract ever signed by an actor on TV, ever.  This is suprising to me because I had figured that 24 would eventually kill Jack Bauer off by this year or next year.  24 has been the best show on TV and alot of that credit should go to Kiefer Sutherland.  Also, Kiefer was already a co-executive producer, but is now THE executive producer.  Either way, 24 is amazing.  This season more people have caught onto the 24 craze.  It is the most critically acclaimed show on TV today and averages 14 Million viewers a night.  That 14 Million viewers is not even close to how many people actually watch 24 because many people wait until in comes out on DVD rather than watch it week to week  (cough cough andrew).  I myself am so damn excited about the rest of Season 5 and Seasons 6,7, and 8.  24 is on FOX on Monday Nights at 9pm after Prison Break.
