2 and a half men has been cancelled - an excellent move in my opinion, once the fat kid grew up the show stopped being funny - and Charlie Sheen doesn't agree with the decision. Look at what he has had to say about Chuck Lorre the show's producer.
Quote: |
"I embarrassed him in front of his children and the world by healing at a pace that this un-evolved mind cannot process. I've spent, I think, close to the last decade I don't know effortlessly and magically converted your tin can into pure gold. And the gratitude I get is this charlatan chose not to do his job, which is to write."
"That piece of shit [Lorre] took money out of my pocket, my family's pocket, and, most importantly, my second family - my crew's pocket.
"You can tell him [Lorre] one thing. I own him."
"What does this say about Haim Levine [Chuck Lorre] after he tried to use his words to judge and attempt to degrade me. I gracefully ignored this folly for 177 shows ... I fire back once and this contaminated little maggot can't handle my power and can't handle the truth. I wish him nothing but pain in his silly travels especially if they wind up in my octagon. Clearly I have defeated this earthworm with my words - imagine what I would have done with my fire breathing fists. I urge all my beautiful and loyal fans who embraced this show for almost a decade to walk with me side-by-side as we march up the steps of justice to right this unconscionable wrong. Remember these are my people ... not yours ... we will continue on together ... "

Not in a thousand million years could I come up with brain farts like "if they wind up in my octagon" and "I embarrassed him in front of his children and the world by healing at a pace that [his] un-evolved mind cannot process"
I am torn between condemning drug users and taking some myself to reach the mystical mental dimension that Sheen resides in. |

Sheen was obviously being himself on the show. I am not sure what planet he is on but he really does not give a *hit.
Maybe doing Platoon *ucked him up.

■He calls Lorre a turd, a clown, and says his real name is “Haim Levine”
■Referring to his rehab stint, Sheen claims to have embarrassed Lorre “in front of his children and the world by healing at a pace that his un-evolved mind cannot process.”
■“I was shackled and oppressed by the cult of AA for 22 years,” Sheen said. “I finally extracted myself from their troll hole and started living my life the way I want to live it. “It’s vintage, outdated and stupid and it’s followed by STUPID people.” He then added: “I hate them violently. They will come at me.” At one point he said: “Debate me on AA right now. I have a disease? Bulls**t. I cured it right now with my mind.”
■After one rant the host, Alex Jones, tells Charlie he sounds like Thomas Jefferson. Charlie’s response, “I’m not Thomas Jefferson. He was a p***y! But I dare anyone to debate me on things.”
■On his drug and alcohol issues, “I have a disease? Bulls**t! I cured it … with my mind.”

Someone needs to let Voss know, he could probably draft Sheen in exchange for two first round draft picks and Jonathan Brown. |

I'm more surprised the "establishment" hasn't come out an tried an anti-Semitic angle to ostracise him in the same way they did with Mel. |

Interesting perspective from an interesting person - a cartoonist, Scott Adams.
Quote: | I met Charlie Sheen a few years ago, on the set of his show, Two and a Half Men. The writers made a few references to Dilbert in an episode, and that turned into an invitation for Shelly and me to come down and watch the taping.
Charlie was very friendly, and acted as though he was familiar with Dilbert. I often tell the story of Charlie doing a head-to-toe visual assessment of my wife from four feet away. He wasn't kidding around. Just curious, I guess. Somehow he made it seem normal.
In my two minutes of interaction with Charlie, I got the strangest vibe from him. There was something extraordinarily deep, or maybe dark, or intense, about him. You often hear it said of celebrities "He's so normal." I didn't get a normal vibe from Charlie. Not even close. It wasn't a crazy vibe, or a drug vibe. It just wasn't anything I've seen before. It was haunting.
Like many of you, I've been watching his crazy-talk interviews and reading about his unusual life choices. I'm not embarrassed to say I'm fascinated by it all. But the thing that interests me the most is the intersection between honesty and insanity. There is some theoretical amount of honesty that is indistinguishable from mental illness. Charlie is blurring the line, or maybe spending some time on both sides of it. It's clearly intentional. And it might be working, at least in terms of pressuring his show to restart, at which point it would be the most watched show on television.
It might look to you as if he is crazy because he speaks about himself as some sort of walking god with powers beyond what we humans possess. Crazy, right? Maybe. If we allow him some literary license when he says he has tiger blood and Adonis DNA, let's examine the claim.
I witnessed him do hours of dialog during the taping of his show and he never missed a line. His costars didn't do nearly as well. I was very impressed.
Charlie has also survived incredible amounts of drugs and still appears totally healthy. He looks better than any 45-year old I know. He has also spoken of his ability to go all night without getting tired. I'm usually done by about 9 PM. Maybe he does have an unusually strong constitution.
How about talent? He's had dramatic roles in films, and he's the highest paid actor on television. Is it totally crazy for him to think he's built different from the rest of us? Successful people often believe they are special. Charlie's problem is that he's saying it. He's also saying anything else that pops into his head.
How about his nerves? Would you have the guts to even attempt to do the sort of work he does in front of a live audience? I get the sense that nothing scares him.
Imagine if you stopped filtering everything you said and did. You'd have to be in Charlie Sheen's unique position to get away with it, but just try to imagine yourself living without self-censorship. Wouldn't you sound crazy?
Imagine you are so unafraid of consequences and the opinions of other people that you start sentences before you have a plan for how they will end. Sometimes a sentence turns out well, and sometimes you compare yourself to tigers and mythological gods.
I think Charlie is fascinating because he's living without fear. That translates into a disturbing degree of honesty. And at the moment it gives him an amazing amount of power over the media, which he is using to his advantage.
I can't judge his mental health. And clearly he has a drug issue that will last a lifetime. But I also think that a total lack of fear would look like insanity to the casual observer. And perhaps it is. But it's a strangely great kind of crazy.
Hey, CBS, if Two and a Half Men starts up again, I'll cancel whatever other plans I have so I can see it. Advantage: Charlie.
