10 Actors You Didn’t Know Played The Same Character In More Than One TV Show

10. Kiefer Sutherland - Jack Bauer (24 & The Simpsons)

The Simpsons' 2007 episode 24 Minutes is one big Treehouse of Horror-type segment spoofing Fox's action-drama, 24.

That show stars Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer, a counter-terrorist agent who usually ends up having to stop someone important from being shot or blown up.

The action takes place in real-time over 24 hours, although the show had commercials so it's not entirely clear how that works!

24 Minutes took this idea and applied it to Springfield Elementary. Lisa leads the Counter Truancy Agency (CTU) as they try and stop a stink bomb from being detonated at the school's bake sale. The episode is really fun, a neat little twist on the regular format of the show, and it also features some very appropriate guest stars.

One of those is Jack Bauer, who makes an appearance to arrest Bart after he made a prank phone call to him. Sutherland reprises his role as Bauer and is joined by Mary Lynn Rajskub, who is also in character as 24's Chloe O'Brian.

These 24 cameos are the icing on the cake for the episode, even if Bauer's obsession with Bart does lead to a nuclear bomb going off. Don't worry though - it was in Shelbyville.
