DB Woodside

"I was desperately looking for things to do to pass the time... I went to the video store and rented the first season of ’24’ on DVD. I had heard so much about the show from friends and critics. I got so caught up in the show that I watched the entire first season in seven days. I called up my agent and said no matter what it took, I had to be on this show."
