SPOILER ALERT!
Two and Half Men is one of the most anticipated shows of the fall. If you are not familiar with the show, it was one of the top rated television sitcoms for a number of years. Charlie Sheen was the highest paid television actor, raking in about $1.8 million dollars an episode. The hit show on CBS had fired Charlie Sheen over a dispute they had, and then replaced Sheen with Ashton Kutcher. Initially, Sheen had issues with the head honchos of the Two and Half Men production crew and no one really knew his true feelings about being replaced by Kutcher. But many people were curious to know if Charlie was going to watch the show with the new Kutcher character. Indeed, Charlie was one of the 28.7 million viewers that tuned in to watch new show. Word on the street is that he even loved the show. The show opened with the writers of Two and Half Men killing off Sheen. So, despite watching his own funeral, Charlie still thought the show was clever and brilliant. Seems as though, the fire between Charlie and the Two and Half Men crew has somewhat calmed down. As Charlie moves on to other jobs, I’m sure they will be very successful. I’m definitely not worried about his bank account.
I must admit I was part of the 28.7 million who watched the premiere. Honestly, I've never had an interest in the show before, but was just curious how they'd permanently remove Sheen and introduce Kutcher. I thought Sheen's character would be killed off in a car accident or some other similar common cause of death. I did not expect him to be ran over by a subway train. The producers weren't joking when they said there would be no way Sheen's character could "come back" from his impending fate.
