Kiefer Sutherland is confident that 24's Jack Bauer would "respect" his new Designated Survivor character.
ABC's new series, premiering Wednesday, centers on Sutherland's eponymous "designated survivor" Tom Kirkman, who is sworn in as president – despite never having served as an elected official – after an explosion kills nearly the entire U.S. government.
So what does the 24 agent think of Sutherland's portrayal of Potus?
"One of the things I loved about Jack Bauer as a character was he was absolutely apolitical, and anytime you deal with someone in the Secret Service you're dealing with that as well," Sutherland tells People. "They're...

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler funny enough at the 2014 Golden Globes telecast? (photo © HFPA: Golden Globes telecast hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler) Acting as a lighter version of Ricky Gervais, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler took a series of (mostly) mild jabs at the rich and famous sitting in the audience at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills on Sunday evening, January 12, 2014. As to be expected considering the sheer number of jokes, some hit their targets whereas others hit the floor. (See “2014 Golden Globes Photos and Mismatched Winners” and full list of Golden Globes 2014 winners and nominees.) Along the way, Fey and Poehler went for stereotypes when making fun of television viewers — "all of the women and gay men watching from home" — and targeted a physical attribute of one of this year’s (male) honorees, Woody Allen. Remarking on the fact that Allen and Martin Scorsese have both...

The 68th Golden Globe Award nominations, probably the most significant industry award ceremony preceding the Academy Awards (and most likely to match the Academy Awards), were announced minutes ago… and, of note, Halle Berry received a nomination for Best Actress (Drama) for her work in Frankie & Alice. So, it looks like the campaign has paid off somewhat. She hasn’t won, and she probably won’t win, given her competition, but at least she’s been noticed. Let’s see if Oscar voters feel the same way.
Also, Idris Elba gets a nomination for his performance in the BBC America hit Luther – a show we’ve touted on this website many times. He’s nominated in the Best Performance By An Actor In A Mini-Series Or Motion Picture Made For Television. Hopefully this helps draw audiences to the series, which you can watch on demand, right now, via Amazon.com...
