Charlie Sheen has made a right charlie of himself. He was never the greatest actor...he was never the best comedian. Obviously he was in the right place at the right time and had a great formula with an exceptionally good team of writers that made him the focal point of a TV series that was mediacore at best.
There I said it. Two and a Half Men was not fantastic. Better sitcoms have been produced in the US. This series was based, lets face it, loosely around Sheen's actual hell raising lifestyle. How this series could have garnered awards I cannot fathom. The acting was stilted, the comedy was transparent. It was not up to the standards of US sitcom writing. It would be nice if now the networks cast around and get down to something a lot better and classier. Sheen has killed his career, if he ever works in Hollywood again it will be a cold day in hell I suspect. I think the man was stupid to kill the Golden Goose but I do not think his brand of sitcom will be missed. I am sure that the writing team that backs Two and a Half Men will come up with a formula as good - hopefully better - and not be saddled with an over indulged actor to lead the troops. This never happened to the other fella. -----Original Message----- From: Kirby McDaniel <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, 7 Mar 2011 21:55 Subject: [MOPO] ONE AND A HALF MEN http://mediadecoder.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/03/07/charlie-sheen-fired-from-two-and-a-half-men/?emc=na Kirby McDaniel MovieArt Original Film Posters P.O.
