Actor Kiefer Sutherland, who essays Jack Bauer in popular American TV series "24", says he has not watched a single episode of the show.
However, the 42-year-old admits that he knows how the show is going, reports mirror.co.uk
"I haven't watched an episode of 24, no. But I know how it goes, I have read the script," Sutherland said on a TV show.
In fact, the actor admits he has not watched himself on screen since his appearance in "Stand By Me" in 1986, because he was upset with the way he came over on screen.
"I was standing there, we watched the movie and everything I thought I wanted to do, I hadn't done at all."
"All I saw was myself up there and I was mortified and my girlfriend was saying, 'I thought it was really great'. I said, 'Don't patronise me. I need to get another job. If I don't get another job and this comes out, I'm dead and my career is over'," he said.
