Sutherland said in a statement that the show's cast and crew "always wanted '24' to finish on a high note, so the decision to make the eighth season our last was one we all agreed upon." He also said he was looking forward to creating a film version of "24."

Sutherland表示，劇集主創(chuàng)人員“都希望《反恐24小時(shí)》能夠還在巔峰的時(shí)候終結(jié)，所以拿第八季作為全劇大結(jié)局是所有人一致同意的。”他同時(shí)還表示很希望創(chuàng)作一部《反恐24小時(shí)》的電影版。

The show has received 68 Emmy nominations, winning for outstanding drama series and for Sutherland as lead drama actor in 2006.

該劇集已經(jīng)獲得了68項(xiàng)艾美獎(jiǎng)提名，并在06年贏得了最佳劇情片和最佳男主角兩項(xiàng)桂冠。

"This has been the role of a lifetime, and I will never be able to fully express my appreciation to everyone who made it possible," Sutherland said. "But when all is said and done, it is the loyal worldwide fan base that made it possible for me to have the experience of playing the role of Jack Bauer, and for that I am eternally grateful."

Sutherland說：“這是改變我一生的角色，我永遠(yuǎn)不足以感謝使之成為現(xiàn)實(shí)的所有人。但我要說的，是全世界忠實(shí)的粉絲團(tuán)成就了我，讓我有機(jī)會(huì)體驗(yàn)Jack Bauer的生活冒險(xiǎn)，為此我詠懷感激?！?/div>
