Both 24 itself and its star Keifer Sutherland have received Emmy nominations each year the show has been on the air. Each year, they were also rans to shows like The Sopranos and actors like Martin Sheen — until this year that is:
LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) — Saving the world from assorted terrorists paid off for the cast of “24″ at Sunday night’s Primetime Emmy Awards.
The Fox thriller picked up the award for best drama and star Kiefer Sutherland picked up the award for best actor in a drama for playing crusading CTU agent Jack Bauer.
“What a nice evening this has been for us; my father’s sitting over there,” he said, pointing to Donald Sutherland, who also was nominated for his role in “Human Trafficking.” “We’re going to have to have dinner now.
“Every once in a while, you’re going to have an evening that reminds you that you have too much,” he said.
Good for them.
Kiefer looked so cool last night.
