TWO AND HALF MEN

Two and a Half Men is an American television comedy series which premiered on CBS on September 22, 2003. Starring Charlie Sheen, Jon Cryer, and Angus T.

Charlie's free-wheeling life is complicated when his brother gets divorced and moves, along with his son, into Charlie's beach-front Malibu house. In 2011, a news article in The New York Times called it "the biggest hit comedy of the past decade."^[2] The show has ranked among the Top 20 programs every season since it first aired.

Television reached a multi-year broadcast agreement for the series, renewing it through at least the 2011–12 season.^[3][4] However, CBS and Warner Bros. have decided to end production for the rest of the eighth season due to Sheen entering drug rehab and making disparaging comments about the show's creator and executive producer, Chuck Lorre.^[5] Sheen was fired from the show on March 7, 2011. The ninth season is expected to premiere in fall^{[clarification needed]} 2011 with Ashton Kutcher as Sheen's replacement.^[6]
