MR

1st show of the new season 1st half very funny, 2nd half i noticed a lull.

2nd show, just finished watching and i couldn't wait for it to end, just as i suspected, Kutcher is going to tank this show as fast as Clooney did Batman

This isn't really much of a surprise. Think about what Chuck Lorre and CBS are trying to do here. They went out and found an actor (Sheen) and decided to build an entire show around his real life. Hell, they didn't even change the name of the "character" that "Charlie" was supposedly playing. The thing that always made that show so funny is that it was authentic. At no point did you ever feel like Sheen was ever acting or studying a script. I've never really found Ashton Kutcher remotely funny and don't know much about his credentials as an actor. That said, this show was never built around him and his real lifestyle, so he's in an impossible situation. I promise you that if Norman Lear ever decided to replace Carroll O'Connor on "All in the Family", the show wouldn't have lasted a week!

Kutcher is terrible. He's such a ditzy moron who acts like a bimbo and somehow, looks like one too. He's good at acting like a major tool with no brain. He was the same character in "That 70's Show" but givin' the buzz around Two And A Half Men, I think that show will always pull in decent ratings. Kutcher could bring in a flow of female audiences and his dipshit nature was a hit on That 70's Show so it's probably going to work out. People like Kutcher for some reason.

First & second sentences = BINGO!
Third sentence = That's not acting!

I really don't fancy how they have Berta drooling in her head over Mr Kutcher's character.
Hopefully the cast and crew members have made wise investments because this show is sunkered.

Seen both new episodes...not funny.

I dvr'd the first episode and watched the Charlie Sheen Roast instead. Wowzers, nothing was off limits!

Yes.Then i was also wondering to myself if she has this huge crush going on with him then why didn't she ever have a crush on Charlie when he was there?

Something else is that i only saw Jake once on the second episode for like ten seconds.Got to get Jake more involved.

As far as Alan goes i'm wondering does he ever settle in and live at the house Charlie left behind or does he live with his mother? Also noticed Kutcher's character has a long time girlfriend.Does this girlfriend fade away or will she become a common fixture


Noticed Charlie was brought up quite a lot on the second episode.So here is what i think they should've done.They should've built in a failsafe option or fallback plan in case the show tanks.Should've had Charlie go on vacation instead of dying.That way if things went south as far as the ratings go they could always fade Kutcher into the background and bring back Charlie.

Charlie has already apologized to producers and said he was wrong.He also said he would come back if they asked.

And now news that Demi has left Ashton because of his cheating. A powerful, rich, beautiful wife. Wonder what satisfies a man.

Anyone think Ashton is letting the 2 and a Half Men payday get to his head?

some additional details (the recent Neal Schon headlines has got me reading tabloids...oh no...)

""Nik, I'm going to be straight to the point. I'm a female who works at who happens to be friends with Sara Leal, probably not after this. I'm sick to my stomach over what happen last Friday night. Like most people on earth I worshiped Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore until Ashton Kutcher f****d my friend Sara Leal at 4:30AM technically Saturday morning in his room on the 12 floor at the Hardrock Hotel in San Diego. Ashton Kutcher told Sara Leal that him and Demi Moore are separated and the public doesn't know yet. Smooth line Ashton, she was going to f**k you anyway. Nik if you want to verify any of this just call Sara Leal yourself or ask Deena Omari. Better yet subpoena Ashton's bodyguard who took her phone before she came into the room."

'Butch' is going to fuckup Ashton...

Ashton needs to sew his oats until he is around thirty or so and then settle down.He needs to apologize to Demi then lead a single life like most wild crazy sex starved men in their twenties do that don't want to settle down.He needs to enjoy his fame and fortune and settle down with one woman later on in the future.

Ashton Kutcher is 33.

Damn ,I thought he was still in his twenties.

Always felt that Ashton and Demi's marriage was nothing more to him than a vehicle to enhance his stardom. She kind of dissappeared from the scene after the marriage, where as his star rose. Not surprised to see the marriage coming to an end. Actually lasted much longer than I thought it would.

The first episode broke a record for viewers, almost 28 million, but the second episode saw a 29 % drop down to about 20 million. My guess is after seeing how weak the 2nd episode was, we could expect another 2.5 - 5 million drop in viewers next week.

Those companies therefore got free advertisement during that 28 million viewer show. Kutcher did not inform anyone ahead of time, nor did he disclose he was invested in those companies. Any company having product placement on prime time shows pays big bucks for that advertising - and these companies got it for free. One went so far as to tweet about it with excitement:

Foursquare CEO Dennis Crowley was thrilled. During the episode, he tweeted a screenshot of the laptop saying, "Check out @aplusk showing some @foursquare & @GroupMe laptop-sticker love on Two & a Half Men."

I didnt even notice that at all and am guessing most didnt see it as well.

My prediction is that next season will show this season to have all been a dream and Charlie will be back.

3rd show in, and another 2.7 million drop in viewers this week , down to about 17.3 million. They say they still are number 1 for there time slot. I watched it and it was so-so i didnt laugh at all during the show , but i didnt think it was as bad as the second show.

The show currently sucks. I watched the piolet episode and the TBC from the first episode and both sucked. Not anything really remotely funny in either.

I just read that new show The Playboy Club is cancelled already after only 3 episodes. First, Eddie Cibrian's killed off on CSI Miami after less than a season, now this new show of his.....pretty much before it even gets started......dude can't seem to hold a job. His career has pretty much tanked since him and Leanne Rhimes started up that affair on their spouses. LOL, watch it Mr. Schon, public perception is everything.

I just watched the 3rd episode...didn't laugh once. I hope they kill this thing off quick or find some way to bring Sheen back in.

I think it's safe to say that Charlie Sheen is still ... winning. They'll be dialing him up soon for next year's episodes.

Never watched 1 second of 1 episode.

5th show drops another million+ viewers, to 14.85

Who watches this shit?

With Sheen, it could be funny. With Kutcher, nope.

The little half~guy is eighteen now ...I say,
make him a whole man, change the name
of the show and reintroduce Uncle Charlie.

Did u guys watch the Sheen roast? Not nearly as entertaining as the Shatner one, but still pretty funny.
