Kiefer Sutherland drinks a lot, lives in a seedy neighborhood

ok, here's the deal: he didn't grow up rich! he didn't have the help of his father! he barely even knew him growing up. he lived with his mom and at least at the beginning they were broke and lived in the shadiest part of Toronto. so shut the f*** up! coz you don't know what you're talking about. Barely seeing your father, and your mother (also an actress) being away all the time, busy with her career, sending him away to schools... you're bound to be a little messed up. not to mention his grandfather being a famous controversial politician (very much to the left!) and his mother also fighting for her political beliefs and being thrown in jail for it... he was born into kind of a crazy family, that couldn't have been healthy. so stop judging, nobody's perfect, and believe it or not, a ton of money doesn't buy you love or happiness. give the guy a break! he IS a self made actor and a damn good one, and he has a lot more going on than acting. so back off!

hi,da ich nicht so gut englisch kann schreib ich in deutsch.kiefer sutherland ist für mich einer der besten schauspieler!obwohl er meistens den bösewicht spielt,denke ich privat ist er ziemlich umgänglich.und ab und an mal einen über den durst trinken? na und?er feiert betimmt mal gerne mit freunden lol was soll es.ist seine sache.deswegen wird man nicht gleich zum alkoholiker.aber in dieser welt in der sich die stars bewegen ist es nicht so einfach sein leben zu leben wie man gerne möchte.man kann sich nicht mehr frei bewegen.wird einem ein kleiner ausrutscher zum verhängnis.stolpert man einmal betrunken aus der kneipe schon ist man alkoholiker. und die paparazzi lauern doch nur auf so was.er ist für mich trotzdem der hübscheste mann .und hat wenn ich in seine augen schaue einen hauch von traurigkeit und sehnsucht in seinem blick.

Kiefer Sutherland is not only a very credible and talented actor but also extremely attractive and improving with age! (Lucky him!) Also, I am quite sure that without exception, if anyone's life was scrutinised in enough detail, it would reveal flaws and weaknesses. Leave him be and let him enjoy himself!

i come from a third world country,i neither have the money no the time to criticise those who have it and i think the rest of you who do should stop it.It doesnot matter if acting aint a real job for some,or if Keifer choses to drink his money,the bottom line's that he earns it and no one else,so give the guy a break,and about him not having a girlfriend,how many of you have dated Julia Roberts????you have any idea what it takes to impress a woman like that?Bigups to you Keifer,you rock!!!

I'm an old gal in my seventies, and I wouldn't miss "24" for anything.......its my favorite show, and Keifer Southerland is terrific in the part of Jack Bauer........if anyone else played him.....I would not watch....and I mean that most sincerely.

Most of you people are full of sh#$
You talk like you know about the life that he's lived
That anger is yours, it ain't got no place on him
If your ever gonna be happy you gotta deal with what's within
So stop whining and crying and worrying about what he does
And start thinking about your life
Your kids might be on drugs
If i'm saying anything it's that there's more to life than this
Get to know your family, your siblings, their kids
Uncles and cousins and long lost friends you never see
Bring America back its values
Stop living through your T.V.
Get out and meet your neighbors
If your lucky, very lucky, you might meet me

Don't judge a book by it's cover. Keifer is a good actor and I love him and his acting. I agree everyone has there quirks and ups and downs and so does he. Just let him do his job and keep us entertained every week on 24. I watch 24 every week my self and I think it is a good show. Keep up the good work Keifer. So what if Keifer drinks alot he isn't the only one out there that drinks.

Hey, I wasn't born to a rich actor but he was a great Dad. Go for it Keifer, I just see a lot of jealousy out there. You are welcome to hang with me anytime.

Ever since he was born, I have always wondered why his Parent(s) named him after "Liquid Yogurt". Now I am stuned to know he has 6 names...hum!, must be good friends of dad's from the Monty Python Days.
I spent 30 years smoking (unless you count the years my dad smoked, and when grandma came to visit with her Kool non-filters) I finally quit being a slave to nicotine and am glad for it. It is only a Legal Addiction. I use to say "I'd probably get run over by a truck if I quit (use to work w/ racehorses, tractor-trailers rolling through all the time, from the Poop removers to the horse vans).
Lastly, Darlin' give your poor Liver a break. Hep. C eventually moves in, then cerrosis, it is a horrible way to die.
Oh, and one more thing, you are handsome, ruggedly handsome, like "Steve McQueen" ... not the queen, James Dean.
Hausta Luego, Guapo!

What the @#CK?Some of of you whine harder than a racetrack loser. So he drinks --So his daddy got some money- so what --Do you like his work ? yes or no? Theres no hiding behind the camera no matter how rich you are. Criticize the work -not some fictional pop celebrity that AOL FEEDS YOU.
