Sickening.Under a deal with prosecutors, the star will serve the sentence during breaks in filming for his hit TV drama, 24.
[TW]Fox;10247674 said:Interupting filming would affect the livilihood of thousands of people who rely on the production of 24 going ahead on time. Harsh, for a drink driving offence.
This way, his co-workers are unaffected, but he still serves jail time. How can anyone disagree with that?
48 days and a 6 month driving ban...must have been a British Judge.
Why not replace him?
[TW]Fox;10247756 said:Becuase he IS 24. Doing anything like that would seriously affect the profitability of the show and thus, the livlihoods of those who work on it.
Keifer commited the crime, and he should be punished. Not him AND everyone he works with.
So, under this deal, thats exactly what happens.

"Kiefer made clear to us at the time of his arrest that his first concern was the welfare of those he worked with and that he intended to do whatever was necessary to prevent shutting down the show," it said in a statement.
"He told us that even if he had to sacrifice more time in custody in order to protect the show and the jobs of those who work with him, he would do so.
"From what occurred today, it is evident he is a man of his word."
Man of class."He told us that even if he had to sacrifice more time in custody in order to protect the show and the jobs of those who work with him, he would do so."
Disappointing
However I can also see this as a twisted publicity stunt/story setup for season 7 too.....
Hmmmmm.....
