OMG!!  Just goes to show Sheen doesn't really need to be interviewed (obviously). He just goes on and on and on. Love the video at the end.  TIS

You're a 19 year old kid. You're critically wounded and dying in the jungle somewhere in the Central Highlands of Viet Nam . It's November 11, 1967. LZ (landing zone) X-ray Your unit is outnumbered 8-1 and the enemy fire is so intense from 100 yards away, that your CO (commanding officer) has ordered the MedEvac helicopters to stop coming in You're lying there, listening to the enemy machine guns and you know you're not getting out. Your family is half way around the world, 12,000 miles away, and you'll never see them again. As the world starts to fade in and out, you know this is the day. Then - over the machine gun noise - you faintly hear that sound of a helicopter. You look up to see a Huey coming in. But.. It doesn't seem real because no MedEvac markings are on it. Captain Ed Freeman is coming in for you. He's not MedEvac so it's not his job, but he heard the radio call and decided he's flying his Huey down into the machine gun fire anyway. Even after the MedEvacs were ordered not to come. He's coming anyway. And he drops it in and sits there in the machine gun fire, as they load 3 of you at a time on board. Then he flies you up and out through the gunfire to the doctors and nurses and safety. And, he kept coming back!! 13 more times!! Until all the wounded were out. No one knew until the mission was over that the Captain had been hit 4 times in the legs and left arm. He took 29 of you and your buddies out that day. Some would not have made it without the Captain and his Huey. Medal of Honor Recipient, Captain Ed Freeman, United States Air Force, died last Wednesday at the age of 70, in Boise , Idaho May God Bless and Rest His Soul. I bet you didn't hear about this hero's passing, but we've sure seen a whole bunch about Lindsay Lohan and Charlie Sheen.

oh come on!
that makes me a lunatic then. I'd be worried about myself if I couldn't just sit and laugh my ass off with the earlier seasons. Tony, I think they're referring to Sheen's one man show, not his television show.

It looks as though they are considering Hugh Grant to take over the lead in the show. Who would have thought? I actually think that he'd be good. I have always like his style and dry humor. TIS LOS ANGELES – Hugh Grant has been weighing a big move: replacing the fired Charlie Sheen on CBS' "Two and a Half Men."
A person familiar with the situation said Wednesday the British film actor was in negotiations to join the sitcom as its new leading man. The person, speaking on condition of anonymity because producer Warner Bros. and CBS hadn't authorized public comment, said the talks had stalled without resolution..... Link

Vinny, Yes I did. I also really liked Mickey Blue Eyes. I thought he was hilarious. TIS

Link I wonder if they'll change the tenor of the show. I don't see Hugh dialoging the way Sheen did.

Ok, I don't have a link to post but the local L.A. radio station (Kearth 101) reported that Hugh Grant was ready to sign a deal for the show but backed out in the end because he wanted more creative say. So, it looks like that's out. Darn, I would have rooted for him. Anyway, you'll NEVER guess who they are talking to now? Jason Bateman.  I don't dislike him, but I just don't see him as a draw to a show that lost it's main star. I think Grant, Stamos or any of the others would be better. Just my opinion. TIS

Just now on MSNBC they speculated that this deal going south COULD be a ploy to see what the response would be. Seems silly, but who knows. I have no idea what "creative" license he may mean, but another issue might be that Grant is not from the U.S. and I imagine that would be a big factor for him having to go back & forth. The more I think about it though, he'd be great. I agree with Oli that he certainly wouldn't have the harsh, risque personality as Sheen's character. However, he could easily (and probably perfectly) play the charming but awkward character who lands all the ladies (or not). Then again on the other hand, why not just start a new series instead of completely re-doing Charlie Harper's character. TIS

I think it would be better to keep the Two And Half Men brand alive. The name is just too big for cancellation. Also, it wasn't just Charlie Sheen's show. Jon Cryer had a lot to do with the show getting as big as it did. And Angus too. I hope Grant goes for it, but what they shouldn't do is re-do Charlie Harper's character. That would be a terrible mistake. Hugh Grant is such a goofy guy and even though, he can be good with the ladies from time to time, I don't see him landing every chick he sees. Alan would probably be able to compete with Grant  .

Ok, they now have a replacement for Charlie Sheen and you'll never guess who (this time). Ashton Kutcher.  Can't say I thought of him. I don't like or dislike him, but it might work. He's young and good looking and probably could continue Sheen's role pretty believably. Plus he has a following and may bring a newer/fresher audience to the show. What do you think? TIS Story
