Ashton Kutcher heads to Men?!

[Raph's Girl]

....WTF?! Charlie Sheen got replaced on Two and a Half Men by Ashton Kutcher?!

He's all but signed for it....just needs to dot the I's.

Ashton Kutcher is finalizing a deal to star on the CBS sitcom, taking the place of Sheen after he was fired earlier this year, The Hollywood Reporter reports.

Sources close to the negotiations say that the No Strings Attached star will land a "huge payday" to join the sitcom and that the deal just needs to be signed. Men creator Chuck Lorre is reportedly writing a storyline that will introduce Kutcher in a satisfactory and "funny" way.

This is probably going to go over as well as 8 Simple Rules after the death of John Ritter.

[ThirdMarioBro]

Yeah. How many times can CBS make this same stupid mistake? All because of the egos of a few puritanical psycho network execs. Oh well. Glad I don't watch network TV.

I'm surprised John Cryer isn't saying, "Let's just move on....really. I can find another job, honest."

Or when Gimme A Break changed after Dolph Sweet's death (Chief Carl Kanisky) by...

1). Moving from Glenlawn, CA to New York City. (not bad)

2). Joey Lawrence's brother, Matthew Lawrence, joined the show. He was so cute as a 7 year old playing his baby guitar & singing. (Great to me, good to others)

3). Adding Rosie O'Donnell to the show as well. (UGLY!!!)

Best thread title ever.

I don't watch Two and a Half Men anyway, so I could care less what happens. But I do think it's good news for Ashton. I think he'll be good in the role.

[deadpoolRKO]

I've seen a few episodes of two and a half men , enough to know cryner lives in sheen's house as a guest. So i'm curious how they work ashton into the role

It took me a moment to figure out what you were getting at. I must be getting rusty with my double meanings.

I thought it was about Ashton coming out of the closet too. ^_^

I caught an ep once and found it absolutely horrifying. So, IMO, this development couldn't make it any worse... I hope.

[Powder]

I watch it casually... On the rare occasion I'm actually watching the tube, if I'm flipping through and come across it, I stay.

Needless to say that will never happen again. 'Cept for re-runs, I guess.

[Jester]

Hey...maybe this will be the Saved by the Bell to the original 2 & 1/2 Men's Good Morning, Ms. Bliss.

I thought this thread was about fellatio. Disappointed.

How long was the show on after Dolph died and they (Nell, Telma, the boys) went to California? I don't remember.

[Spitfire]

Show was never funny anyway. I never got why it was popular. Then again I find almost every sitcom unwatchable and horrid. Who really wants to listen to a laugh track? They're annoying and they always laugh at stuff that isn't even remotely funny.

rofl! yeah for sure

yup, or the countless other times it's been done

Yeah. How many people saw the title and went, "Ah-HAH! I KNEW it!"

I totally agree with you Spitfire. I swear they don't actually want to make a sitcom that is funny. They are all crap. Each and every one of them. They are still not funny after downing a six-pack. They are insulting to your intelligence as they try to dumb it down to the lowest common denominator.

[ssjup81]

I've always liked family sitcoms, but I don't think they even exist anymore. I don't consider 2 1/2 Men a "family" sitcom.

[Guitar_Raph]

Dolph Sweet died in 1985. Nell, Telma & Joey moved from California to New York in 1986, where he met Matthew. The series went two extra seasons after he died.

Next time, read my posts carefully. The show was set in California, not New York.

Unsure how I feel about this decision. I'm not a huge Ashton Kutcher fan, but I'm willing to give it a chance. For Duckie, you know.


I thought this thread was about fellatio. Disappointed.

And yet, you clicked on it to 'watch'... ;)
