Doubt it, they won't continue without Sheen and they can't curb him to their network's standards.

You realize you don't have to watch it right? If it bothers you so much might I suggest you just turn the TV off on Monday nights, or change the channel.

I like that when he was going on coke fueled rampages threatening wives with knives, holding prostitutes hostage in his bathroom and other things, it was cool, show goes on. He calls a producer a name and now he is OUT OF CONTROL.

I don't watch it, I'm just very VERY ready for it to be OUT of the public's general eye. It won freakin television awards for Best Show/Comedy etc. It needs to die.

I'll take the chance of getting something worse/better than staying what I know is terrible.

I know you're being sarcastic, but I can't believe you don't understand the rammifications of that. Better shows will get ignored because they lose to a show like this. Better shows can get canceled by that point. More shows that are similar will crop up because networks will think it's a "winning formula". It's a downward spiral.

It is such a terrible show that it is the most watched non-Police Procedural show on TV. I wish TV would drop its fascination with and glorification of murder.

I don't watch it, but each time I see it on, it makes me laugh before I change the channel.

Uh... Arrested Development won TONS of awards and still got canned. I don't think it's as simple as you are making it out to be.

Still, I'm not crying that one of the dumbest shows I ever sat through5 minutes of is off the air.

I'm not saying it's the end all be all situation, I'm saying it LENDS to those ends.

I like that show too, along with Everyone Loves Raymond and King of Queens. They're not my guilty pleasures. I like them. They're good sit-coms.

I'm not a fan of the show but I think Charlie Sheen was a major dick for doing this and putting a lot of people out of work who depend on him. For those of you who watch the show on a regular basis, couldn't they bring in someone else to replace him? Bring in some other 80's star and have John Cryer move in with him. Make this guy even more sleazy than Charlie's character and run with that. I just think it's disgusting that Charlie doesn't appreciate the opportunity he's been given (as his career was long over before this show) and the millions he makes for each episode.

Yeah, I don't think finding something that is pretty much the exact same show is going to be that hard.

In one really old episode*, Chris O'Donnell played an ex-girlfriend of Charlie's who had a sex change. That would make an interesting character to bring in.

*back when I actually watched the show, when I was fourteen.

Don't worry. I'm sure they have another dozen "odd couple sitcoms" waiting in the wings.

A priest, a rabbi, an imam, and a Buddhist monk all share an apartment in downtown Portland! Watch as they all have an intense discussion on what is and isn't okay to make for dinner!

"Shellfish?! It is a SIN!"
"But it's Friday! We can't have meat!"
"You eat MEAT?! Your all a bunch of monsters!"
"Looks like it's cheese pizza again!"

Watch the rabbi and imam draw a line down the center of the apartment when they can't get along anymore... only for them to keep fighting over who gets the bathroom! Watch the Nerf darts fly!

Watch the monk and priest awkwardly try to uphold their vows of chastity against the flirtatious advances of the beautiful Wiccan and Hindi girls across the hall!

All this and more! Coming this Fall... Finding Salvation! Only on FOX!

If Charlie Sheen was more coked up that show might be more interesting. They should just go for it. Give him a mountain of coke and turn on the camera. BOOM. Everyone who hates it will start watching.

I enjoy the show.

And there's far worse on the tube than this that warrants this thread. As long as there's those shitty reality TV shows still going with terrible concepts, this show can do no wrong.

If the show Two and a Half Men had a face I would slap it. Good riddance, says I.

Yeah, I'm not going to omit any truths, listening to that bonkers-as-fuck interview that's causing all of the hullabaloo was far more hilarious than any bit of that show I've occasionally suffered through ever was.

I suppose that's one way of looking at things. But I would not waste good shit in order to poop on reality TV. Butt nuggets are worth so much more than that.

I mean, sheeeit, I feel dumber just seeing ADS for reality TV.

No kidding. I like Charlie Sheen in most stuff I see him in but watching even 5 minutes of this show was a horrible experience. But really, Jay is right, there is worse on TV. Much worse. Not that there being worse should the writers of 2 1/2 men feel better for the crimes on humanity they inflicted, but it is true...

I dunno, I think that Spin City should have proven Charlie Sheen + Sitcom = Not good.

Also, A podcast I listen to (Hollywood Babble-On with Kevin Smith and Ralph Garman) played an audio clip of Sheen from some radio show. He thinks Lindsay Lohan needs to work on impulse control. He also thinks he's a true professional because when he came to the set of the show "tired" (never "drunk" or "high off his tits" according to him, just "tired"), he'd move his mark in scenes so he'd have something to lean on. A less professional actor would stayed on mark and just fallen over. I'd argue a professional wouldn't come to the set hung over, drunk, or high off his tits...but he's had a 27 year career and I haven't, so maybe he's right.

I saw some snippets from his Good Morning America interview. Holy Fucking Crack Head Batman!!!

He does not need the Betty Ford Clinic, he needs Shady Acres Home for the Seriously Fucked Up.
