Freddie Prinze Jr. appeared in 24's eighth season as Jack Bauer's (Kiefer Sutherland) reluctant ally Cole Ortiz, though several years after his single-season stint on the show ended, Prinze spoke out about his miserable experience working with Sutherland. He said:

"It was terrible. I hated every moment of it. Kiefer was the most unprofessional dude in the world. That's not me talking trash, I'd say it to his face, I think everyone that's worked with him has said that."

Prinze, who worked with WWE in various creative capacities both before and after filming 24, even compared former WWE CEO Vince McMahon favourably to Sutherland:

"I didn't have to take my shoes off to do scenes with [Vince], which they made me do. Just put the guy on an apple box or don't hire me next time. You know I'm six feet and he's five foot four... I just wanted to quit the business after that. So, I just sort of stopped."

As much as Prinze paints a convincing picture of the pair not getting on, Sutherland had his reps take the high road, simply wishing Prinze the best.
