CBS Discontinues Two And A Half Men For Rest of Season
— Ace

Based on the fact that Charlie Sheen is insane. And more coked up than a Columbian soft drink machine.

Hollywood Reporter claims he made an "anti-semitic attack" on the show's creator but the extent of that seems to be calling him "Chaim Levine" instead of his real name, Charles Levine, or his stage name, Charles Lorre. I suppose there's some kind of Jew-baiting there, a little, but I don't really think you can call that an "anti-semitic attack."

It is odd that a family/kid's show stars this out of control lunatic Dead Pool draft-choice.

I prayed earlier that they'd take his show away so he'd be forced to do what he was born for -- embarrassing basic-cable celebrity reality shows. I hope that we'll finally get to see his talent in that venue, before he dies, I mean.

If You're Wondering... why I'm posting about Charlie Sheen, it's because he's a Truther.

I wish death on him. After he does a humiliating run on trainwreck tv, like Addiction House or whatever the hell it is where a bunch of washed-up cokefiends sit down for rap sessions with Dr. Drew.

The best thing about the show is the theme song.  The show is on syndication here on one of our local stations.  Sheen has made but loads of money.

26 I finally saw Wall Street 2 last weekend (it sucked), but his cameo didn't seem anything like his character from the first movie.  He rolls into the scene looking coked up with a chick on each arm.  I don't think it was a planned cameo -- I think a coked up Charlie Sheen just wondered onto the set with a couple of hookers and they decided to go with it.

That's pretty much how they filmed Two and Half Men - they just put Charlie on the set and recorded him doing what he would normally do at his home-home.

37 What else could they do? The guy refused to go to rehab. He's obviously high as a kite in that phone call. Every two weeks he winds up in the ER. Better to "discontinue" now than have to do it next week. I always thought druggies had trouble getting insured, therefore, they came cheap. I wonder if Sheen has an insurance problem.

39 bet that violated his personal conduct section of the contract unlike the domestic violence, hookers, blow, drunken rampages, and call-in rants. "This time, Charlie, you've crossed a line!". Actually, I expect what happened is they could see there's no way to save this shit, and decided to save next week's "I'm here to wuuuuurk" headlines and $2 million bucks. Sad for the rest of the show's staff and actors

I am embarrassed to say that I confess to watching it. I caught on late.  I loathe most sit coms. But manly man is kind of funny-probably because of Lorre.  Although, I think it's very crude and not for children. The house-keeper is hilarious - as is the mom.

Man man man manly man man. man man man manly man man.

51 I will be fearless and confess that I found him amusing in Major League, Men at Work, and the Breakfast Club.  The Top Gun spoofs were worth some sort of minor chuckle.  I've never watched this tv show -- it looks bad. 

He has had a lot more talent than Will Ferrell and a lot of those SNL retreads they foist on us nowadays.

53 I saw one episode on an airplane, and it wasn't bad. I was surprised, since most people talked about it like it was horrible. Hey, I smiled. Starved for entertainment, yes, but that didn't get me to like G.I. Joe. Charlie Sheen, though, is a Truther, and a coked-up whoremonger and all-around spoiled brat lunatic imbecile. The show doesn't need him. He barely acts on it. He says everything in that same bemused "just learned this line three seconds ago" flat affect that you would call a "deadpan" if he were doing it for effect but he's not, he's just drunk and barely functional. He's like Judy Garland with a dick and he'll come to the same end. Just replace him with Will Arnett. Trade up.

Posted by: ace at February 24, 2011 05:04 PM (nj1bB)

54 They are going to replace the show with a new show "Two and a Half Women" to star only Joy Behar (or possibly Oprah).

I've got a co-worker that is an occasional professional actress. She mentioned last week that the people who were really taking it in the neck was crew. With the show suspended, they are probably free to go look for other work.

Charlie Sheen hates working stiffs!!!!

Hey, I liked it! (Empathis on "liked").   I watched the first three seasons when they came out on DVD a few years ago.  The on-liners were good, the interplay between the straight-laced and the hedonistic brothers was great, and I really liked the acerbic wit of the housekeeper's character.

But as with all things, the shtick, particularly that of Charlie's, got really old after a while and I bored of the show.

The Canadian reality/competition show Mantracker might be a funny one. Two cowboys on horseback track two city slickers across a stretch of wilderness. If the city slickers get to the finish line first, they win. If the cowboys catch them before they reach the finish line, they win. If Charlie is in his normal state, he'll fall down and get caught before he leaves the starting line.

109 I know what you mean about Pillow Talk.  I wasn't a huge Rock Hudson fan, though.  I always felt like he was trying to be the American Cary Grant and there's just no comparison.  I thought Tony Randall was the best part of that movie.  Also, Doris looked like crap in that movie.  Weird hair.  Calamity Jane is her best role.

127 This same sort of thing happened to "comedienne" Brett Butler and her show Grace Under Fire back in the 90s. The show was a hit and she let success go to her head. Then she was in a ski accident and became addicted to painkillers. Her antics on the set became unbearable. The actors playing her son and her best friend left the show. In the middle of the fifth season she threw a full soft drink can at someone's head and narrowly missed, in full view of the studio audience. Production was shut down immediately and the show went into hiatus. Soon after it was officially cancelled.

Yeah. This is not a family show.  I've watched it sporadically and it's too raunchy and booze and drugged up. All the male characters are pathetic. While this may be the point of the show, I still find it unpleasant.

I feel sorry for the crew.  Years of putting up with Charlie Nutjob, and now this. I don't understand why they couldn't just throw some shit together and do episodes without the Charlie character.  Explain his absence away by saying he's in rehab, which wouldn't be surprising at all. Or better yet, say he died of alcohol poisoning and have a funeral.

Yeah, I've read that... something to do with Randolph Scott or someone, although he was married many times. 

I don't believe it.  I think they like to claim guys on their team who are not on their team.  Especially if they have something against him (Cary was a Republican). 

I actually dislike the rumors some of our supposed political allies spread about Obama and others.  It's just not on in my book.  I don't mean the jokes -- I mean the innuendos and gossiping.  Either we're all supposed to respect each other's privacy or we aren't.  Things like that shouldn't be used as a weapon.  But I'm old fashioned.

146 On IFC, Fred Amisen from SNL has a series (available free on demand) called "Portlandia." The first episode is funny. The latter episodes are not. At all. But the first episode is worth watching. Aminsen describes Porland as a hippie paradise in this song he sings about it. One of the good lines is "portand is where young people go to retire." Worth watching... but I'm not recommending any except the first one so don't come crying to me when they're awful.

See, this annoys the shit out of me. I would really like Hollywood to stop casting gay actors in heartthrob roles. Sometimes the role itself is sexy and then you find out that the guy you thought was sexy is gay. It's like buying a knockoff Louis Vittion purse at full price and finding out it's a knock-off.

If you like alternative subcultures, checkout Shameless on Showtime. It's the the Chicago welfare crowd.
The oldest girl is a keeper and is a trained in opera, singing in 12 languages.
That is the polar opposite of her salt of the earth persona on the show.

William Macy (the old man) is a work of art as well.

201 183 Top Gear (the BBC version)--also an alpha male paradise, but with ironic geeky Monty Python undertones.

80% alpha male (including James May's ironic humor about beta males), 20% whiny bitch British pretending they didn't piss their empire down their legs.

Some episodes the 20% takes over, especially when they get into Clarkson's extreme America-hatred or some of their (other) staged BS skits pretending to be reality.

When they stick to cars and driving, they're actually quite funny and impressive.

To be fair, there aren't many shows I don't find at least 20% insultingly stupid.

203 That part of Sheen's radio rant where he vowed to either "violently love" or "violently hate" all the people in his life ... with no more middle ground ... yeah that's not gonna go over well with the co-workers.

I also liked the half dozen times where he explained why he did the things he does was because, and I quote, "I'm a winner."

205 I hate to have to admit this, but "Two and A Half Men" is really funny.

It's also neither a family show nor a kid's show.  It's one of the most consistently filthy shows I've ever seen on network television.

Sure, Charlie Sheen is a douchebag, a lunatic, and a delusional asshole, but the show is very well done.

206 I'm a regular on the local liberal blogs around here and you would not believe how they view Portland, it's like their Mecca. Everything, and i mean everything is viewed through Portland and it's oh so awesome perfectness. The most common refrain is "we need to make this city more like Portland", followed closely by "i'm getting the hell out of this bubba city and moving to Portland".

211 If he's a truther, then it's more than likely something anti-semitic was intended by mentioning the guy's Hebrew name in the context of insulting him.  No letting him off the hook so easily.

213 Sheen addressed the suspension of the show in an open letter obtained by TMZ. "What does this say about [anti-Semitic term referring to Chuck Lorrie] after he tried to use his words to judge and attempt to degrade me. I gracefully ignored this folly for 177 shows," Sheen writes. "I fire back once and this contaminated little maggot can't handle my power and can't handle the truth. "I wish him nothing but pain in his silly travels especially if they wind up in my octagon. Clearly I have defeated this earthworm with my words -- imagine what I would have done with my fire breathing fists. I urge all my beautiful and loyal fans who embraced this show for almost a decade to walk with me side-by-side as we march up the steps of justice to right this unconscionable wrong."

215 Amuses my husband to no end that I can sit and watch that but can't watch a slasher movie because of the blood.

Shouldn't be too hard for him to figure out.  True Blood has devolved into a season-long graphic documentary on sodomy techniques interspersed with implausible and/or boring personal melodramas.

And once in a while, if you don't blink, you'll see a supernatural being bite someone.

It's about as much "horror" as the commercials during season-9 episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.  On Logo.

Cary Grant and Randolph Scott shared the house when they were both well established and successful in their careers. Sure there were rumors of homosexuality, but the reality probably is more like it was a precursor to the Playboy mansion. Before Hef became a corpse. And the overcompensating queer Bill Maher showed up.

Yeah I've laughed my ass off to it on many episodes; but I stopped watching it this season because Charlie looked really bad and I just didn't find it as funny as it had been in the past.

And if God is answering ace's requests:  I want to be invisible since a time machine was already requested, dammit.

While I've been reading through this thread 30Rock came on and I've been kinda half watching it while reading comments. First time I've ever seen it, and it's gotta be about the lamest, most unfunny show I've ever suffered through.

How the fuck do these shows become so popular? Are people really that stupid? If the answer is yes, I really gotta rethink the whole idea of government of, by, and for the people.

221 No shooting around. The show has been canceled for the year. Sheen won't get paid. What happens next year is up in the air. But, Sheen is continuing to issue these insulting and crazy missives to Lorre. I think he has burned his bridges.

222 We should recast with Nicolas Cage.  He brings the crazy naturally, no chemicals.

223 Charlie was probably upset at some of the Chuck Lorre Vanity Cards at the end of the show...such as this one: Chuck Lorre Vanity Card 329 CHUCK LORRE PRODUCTIONS, #329 I exercise regularly. I eat moderate amounts of healthy food. I make sure to get plenty of rest. I see my doctor once a year and my dentist twice a year. I floss every night. I've had chest x–rays, cardio stress tests, EKG's and colonoscopies. I see a psychologist and have a variety of hobbies to reduce stress. I don't drink. I don't smoke. I don't do drugs. I don't have crazy, reckless sex with strangers. If Charlie Sheen outlives me, I'm gonna be really pissed.

Say what you want about Truthers, but is Trutherism enough reason to wish death on guy?

231 So we have some competition in the world currently on who is giving the more crazier rants: Muammar Gaddafi/Qaddafi or Charlie Sheen One of the side effects of cocaine is thinking everyone is jealous of you and feelings of persecution and of course extreme confidence, I mean heck, look at how many Latins Tony Montana took out when he was high on a mountain of coke, was Tony shouting "winning!" after each shot tore another hole in the Latin assassins. Ok, I don't like to joke about death, I truly hope he gets some help but will Sheen outlive Gaddafi? Sounds like his F-18 is about to crash and burn.

237 I love that so many people in comment sections, especially on more Entertainment Oriented blogs, can't figure out why President West Wing isn't able to get his poor son the help he needs. I mean, he ran the country for Gods sake. Just the other day, Martin Sheen was prattling on about how people needed to understand that Charlie has a DISEASE and that we all needed to pray for him. People with, say, fucking Cancer have a Disease. Charlie Sheen is a selfish prick.
