Charlie Sheen

I’ve been watching this guy on the Today Show, and he comes off as an absolutely arrogant, narcissistic boob. He claims to be underpaid, yet he receives somewhere near $2,000,000 per episode. That’s about $40,000,000 per season. And that’s only a 22 week season, which would leave him some 29 weeks of the year to do other projects and earn even more money.

He also complains about not getting a vote to put the show on hold or not because of his actions. Last time I checked, Charlie, you have no ownership stake in the show. It’s owned by Warner Brothers and Chuck Lorre Productions, not Charlie Sheen Incorporated.

He claims that the producers are trying to take away his family by denying him a chance to earn money. I would submit he’s made so much money over the last eight years, and has many millions more to come from syndication deals, that he would probably never have to work again, and would not have any problems meeting his financial obligations far into the future if he would get his obvious alcoholism and drug addiction and misogyny under control, rather than blaming the other guy for his failings.

Oh, and Another Thing™. The show is “Two and a Half Men”, not “Look At Me, I’m Charlie Freaking Sheen”. I don’t know why you got put up as the star of the show. It’s clearly an ensemble show that wouldn’t be the same without Cryer, Jones, Farrell, Taylor, Hinkle, and Lynskey. Why don’t Cryer and Jones insist on MFN status in their contracts? Once again, it’s “Two and a Half Men”.

He says Chuck Lorre is lazy. Please. There is no way that someone who is Executive Producer on three hit comedies at the same time is lazy.

Get some real help, Charlie. Before it’s too late.
