Honoring Keifer, Fox Changes Name of “24” To “Case”


Small-fry superspy Kiefer Sutherland celebrated the 40th anniversary release of “Lost Boys” on DVD by racking up his second DUI in the span of three years the other night. Reports indicate that Sutherland was stopped for an illegal U-turn following a cast party in Hollywood, then proceeded to blow more than twice the legal blood-alcohol limit of 0.08. Not even President Wayne “I swear to god I’m not Gary Payton” Palmer could lower Keifer’s $25,000 bail.

Described as “cooperative and mellow” – who wouldn’t be mellow after hanging out at a Hollywood jail for four hours after “24” beers? – Sutherland was released and will face the judge on October 16. If convicted, he is supposed to face mandatory jail time of at least five days in jail … but hey, we know how quirky the L.A. “justice” (just ask "Odd Justice" Simpson) system can be.

After seeing pictures of Sutherland passed out in the lobby of a hotel a couple years back, it sounds like good ol’ Jack Bauer needs to be spending a little less time driving helicopters upside-down with one arm while wrestling an alligator with the other – and a little more time reconvening with the Rat Pack in A.A.
