CBS has decided to halt production of 'Two and a Half Men' -- one of their biggest ratings hits -- after Charlie Sheen's latest radio rant earlier today. In the rant, Sheen called Chuck Lorre, the creator of his hit sitcom, "Hymie Levine" and referred to AA as a "bootleg cult." He also referred to women he has partied with in the past as "turds."
Sheen called in to the nationally syndicated "The Alex Jones Show" today and went on an unbelievably bizarre rant against pretty much everyone, particularly his bosses at CBS and people who have suggested he is anything other than totally awesome -- even when he's high on crack. At times during the conversation, Jones seemed to be egging Sheen on.
Pulling the show for the rest of the season (at least) is going to cost CBS huge, but it had to be done.

SACURRRRITY!

Sandy Duncan - ha!
Fri, 02/25/2011 - 18:49 — brookecain (author)Sandy Duncan -- that's funny! I hadn't thought about that whole "Valerie" fiasco in years. And years. Perfect solution.
You don't need to be Charlie Sheen for that

It's not alcohol
Fri, 02/25/2011 - 11:59 — outhousecatCharlie's problem isn't alcohol (at least primarily). It's cocaine.
Listening to his latest rant I can only hope he's fried. If not, he's gone insane, literally. Talking about "Vatican assassin warlocks" and his invincibility are the grandiose ramblings of a man who has lost touch with reality.
No Morals and No Class
Fri, 02/25/2011 - 11:11 — i88477Why would you want to emulate or be in the shoes of someone who has absolutely demonstrated they have no morals and no class? I'm a male; the guy and his actions are repulsive. He has a very big problem with alcohol and refuses to face the facts. I predict his latest episode of bad behavior won't be his last.
I would be him if I could
Fri, 02/25/2011 - 10:35 — stevemichaelsAsk any man that is in their 40's if they would like to be Charlie Sheen for a period of time - the majority (at least the honest ones) would say heck ya! Lets see the downside: Gobs of money, parties, hot women - should I continue? Now some will rebuff my rant with their " i love to be married" or "he is a sinner" comments but for me -a week or two in Charlies shoes would be more than fine!!
Don't forget that he has a
Mon, 02/28/2011 - 09:04 — coughlin_jakeDon't forget that he has a history of violence against women. But HEY!, party on, dude!
That's the thing.
Mon, 02/28/2011 - 18:47 — brookecain (author)That's the thing, really. I usually have sympathy for someone who is struggling with a dependency issue -- if they are trying to get help, which he is not. But his history of violence against women is absolutely unforgivable.
