Desi Cartman Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Warner Bros has discontinued production of the Two and a Half Men sitcom, citing the behaviour and remarks of series star Charlie Sheen. "Based on the totality of Charlie Sheen's statements, conduct and condition, CBS and Warner Bros. Television have decided to discontinue production of Two and a Half Men for the remainder of the season," said the statement. According to the Hollywood Reporter, the move comes after Sheen ranted about the show's creator Chuck Lorre in a radio podcast. Advertisement: Story continues below Speaking to the Alex Jones Show, Sheen said of Lorre: "I embarrassed him in front of his children and the world by healing at a pace that this un-evolved mind cannot process. I've spent, I think, close to the last decade I don't know effortlessly and magically converted your tin can into pure gold. And the gratitude I get is this charlatan chose not to do his job, which is to write." The show was already temporarily on hold due to Sheen being hospitalised in January. The troubled actor entered hospital complaining of stomach pains brought about by a drug and alcohol fuelled bender and he checked into rehab soon after. However the star was unrepentant about his behaviour, saying publicly that he had no intention of changing his ways. It seems there is no love lost between the pair, with Lorre calling Sheen a 'degenerate' in an interview with the Hollywood Reporter. Two and Half Men is one of the most popular sitcoms on television in the US and Australia and Sheen is one of the highest paid TV actors. (
Clarke Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 That was expected. Sheen can now return to his spiritual ways of life.
Desi Cartman Posted February 25, 2011 Author Posted February 25, 2011 I dont think Sheen is a role model but I loved that show :(( I now haz a sad !
siddhu Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 I love that show.. I have all seasons on DVD And even though I like him in the show but Charlie Sheen is an idiot of the highest order...
Zelig Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Charlie Sheen is an arrogant so-n-so. I remember Colbert and Stewart pulling a comic act on stage once n Sheen gave a dumbo grin like "Is that funny?" Sheen, you piece of trash :yousuck:
Zap_Brannigan Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Never liked the show but this show is a ratings gold. While superior sitcoms like arrested development get canceled or in case of community, limp from one season to the next, this show and another chuck lorre's badly written show, big bang theory, became the most watched show on TV. Sheen was offered mega millions earlier for more seasons of this show. Since this show is a gold pit, it will probably be brought back once all the fights die down. But then Sheen has already made his millions and chuck lorre has 2 more shows on CBS right now. They both might just give up and not reconcile at all.
IKnowU Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 err........the show has only been canceled for the season. Not forever. They probably want Charlie to get over himself and stay in rehab for more then 5mins, before continuing shooting the show only to stop it again cuz of Charlie's lifestyle/
Holysmoke Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 It was fun for a while then it got too repetitive.. stopped watching it long ago.
ravishingravi Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 That was expected. Sheen can now return to his spiritual ways of life. It is spiritual in a way . Atleast he was in high spirits. Chicks and Booze. What more can you want ?
ganeshran Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Its not cancelled I think. Maybe just stopped. Two and a half men is way tooo good to be cancelled.
punjabi_khota Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Those who think Sheen is a wackjob, read about Chuck lorre, the writer/producer. He is a piece of art himself. :yay:
Jersey #10 Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 didn't Sheen get paid like 250-300k per episode? I think too much money or too less money fks with one's brain and it's very important to find that right limit of earning wealth.
Jersey #10 Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 wholly shyt.. If they make a 1000 episodes, he would be a first ever TV- actor billionaire. What the f is wrong with people
punjabi_khota Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 wholly shyt.. If they make a 1000 episodes, he would be a first ever TV- actor billionaire. What the f is wrong with people :hysterical: At 20 episodes a year, thats gonna take a while :hahaha:
punjabi_khota Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 Each of the 6 actors in FRIENDS got a million per episode in the last season way back in 2000
