Role on 24

Donno has appeared on 24 in a variety of roles, since the first season:

• In "Day 1: 1:00am-2:00am," he played a hitman, who along with John Meier's character, assassinated Scott Baylor and tried to kill Richard Walsh and Jack Bauer at 2350 Dunlop Plaza. He was the second character to be killed by Bauer.

• In "Day 1: 7:00pm-8:00pm" and "8:00pm-9:00pm," he played one of Harris's men in the camouflaged shelter.

• In "Day 1: 11:00pm-12:00am," he played a CTU security guard who was shot by Nina Myers.

• In "Day 2: 10:00am-11:00am," he played a policeman that accompanied this officer to interview Gary Matheson. In a deleted scene, his character drove the police car on the street in search of Kim Bauer and Megan Matheson.

• In "Day 2: 10:00am-11:00am," he played two separate CTU workers that were killed in the explosion.

• In "Day 4: 12:00pm-1:00pm," he played the third compound sentry that Jack kills, getting shot in the leg and then chest. He reappeared later in the episode as another sentry, getting shot by the marines. He claimed this role was his 31st death on the series.

• In "Day 5: 10:00am-11:00am," he played a Dawn Brigade separatist at Ontario Airport, taking the place of Jerry G. Angelo's character. He was amongst the men waiting to ambush CTU troops, but was outflanked and shot from behind. He presumably survived the initial shooting, as later he is seen being shot by Jack Bauer.

• In "Day 6: 7:00pm-8:00pm," he played one of the guards at 1530 Hillcrest with Victor. He was the first man to be shot by Jack, outside the building.

• In "Day 7: 7:00pm-8:00pm," he played a Secret Service agent who attempted to engage several of Benjamin Juma's men as they burst into the White House. He was shot on the spot just as he was about to arm himself.

• In "Day 7: 6:00am-7:00am,", he played an airport security guard who engaged in a shootout with Bob Peluso. He and his partner came to apprehend Bob and Sarah but his partner was shot and killed by Bob by surprise. His character held Sarah at gunpoint as Sarah took Kim Bauer hostage, and killed Sarah when Kim stabbed a pen into Sarah's thigh, distracting her. His character was killed by Peluso as the latter was fleeing the terminal. He was the last of the security guards to be killed in the shootout.

• In "Day 8: 5:00am-6:00am," he played a Secret Service agent waiting with Dalton at the SUV for Omar Hassan. When Adrion Bishop's commandos attacked, he was shot and killed.
