CBS Wants Their Men Back

Charlie Sheen is winning after all. According to inside sources, CBS is realizing the show must go on. Radaronline.com is reporting that the trolls at the network have no problem turning a blind eye to Sheen's crazy behavior, especially if it means him returning to the cash cow sitcom. While the folks at CBS and Warner Brothers may be scrambling in the wake of the Two and a Half Men fallout, it's business as usual for the drug-and-sex addicted actor who's taking his show on the road. Sheen will perform live with at least 20 concert dates and rake in at least $7 million, which doesn't even include merchandising. In addition, he's suing Men creator and arch nemesis Chuck Lorre, as well as Warner Brothers, for a whopping $100 million. Despite all of the drama surrounding the comedy show, CBS realizes that nobody, including John Stamos and Rob Lowe, can fill Sheen's big shoes, unstable as they may be. Warner Brothers fired Sheen after his media blitzkrieg where he launched a verbal assault on everybody from Lorre to Warner Brothers to co-star Jon Cryer. Now, it appears CBS is in serious talks with Warner Brothers to get Sheen back in the saddle. CBS head honcho Les Moonves is said to be working overtime to get the 45-year-old actor back. An insider tells Radaronline.com, "Moonves told Chuck Lorre that he should 'let us handle Charlie.' Moonves wants to get the show back on the air. He's all for it. He says certain people need to forget anything and everything Charlie's done recently and just move on with the business at hand." Sheen is going to have the last laugh after all.

I think Charlie Sheen needs help. I can't see why Rob Lowe or John Stamos can't fill his shoes . They are both very good actors.

This is ridiculous. Where is the justice. The Jerk is winning after all. What a bunch of idiots CBS is. I hope "Two and a half Men" fails and the show is canceled. Charlie doesn't deserve a break, all he deserves is getting himself straight and off drugs and going to rehub. John Stamos would have done well as his replacement. And John is much better looking too. And the same goes for Rob Lowe

I agree with Min & Sandee, I dislike Charlie Sheen very much and wish he would fade away. I dont understand all these people who worship him. Sad very very sad

The show would not be the same without Charlie, that's the truth and CBS knows it. Stamos and Lowe are cool, but they can't be Charlie. The best move CBS could make is to either get him back or cancel the show, and CBS does not want to lose one of it's top money makers.

Unfortunately CBS is more concerned with their ratings than making sure he gets the help he needs.

I love Two & a half men. Would love to see Charlie & CBS work things out. This show has some terrific actors and why should they suffer because Sheen and CBS aren't seeing eye to eye.

Amazing - guess the head honchos at CBS high on drugs too. Sheen should be institutionalized, not given whatever he wants. Where is the sanity at CBS - is it all at ABC, NBC and FOX??

It's all about the power, money, ratings, politics, etc. The people I feel sorry for is the wonderful cast that supported Charlie Sheen's one liners. He gets to sit on the couch, at the table, a bar, or a bed on the show & be paid megabucks while the supporting actors that really made the show what it is today get thrown to the curb. Charlie needs to get his act together get that wonderful cast back to work because they deserve to be but not if you continue to rant & rave like a hysterical moron! Anyone notice that the rest of the cast have minded their own business during Charlie's bally-hoo? Now, that's called cla*s!! Sober up Charlie, get yourself clean & stay that way . . if not for yourself . . for your kids . . and get rid of the "porno" crap living in your house. Plain & simply . . GROW THE H*** UP and take on some responsiblity as a loving, protective parent!

I agree with the last comment written by joe blow, but there is even a more troublesome problem being shown here.

Certain and way too many stars of the entertainment field ( whether it be sports or music or TV or film or big business or politics) think that they are GODS. And being Gods they can get away with anything. They feel they can do drugs openingly, take jewelry without paying for it, w***e it up, rape, DUI, or blackmail their bosses AND get away with it. AND THEY DO!!

This idea that some people are above the Law and can choose what laws they should follow and when, is what the children of today see and most of the people under 20 have grown up to believe. It is part of the burden the middle cla*s has had to support and go along with, and is tearing this country apart.
Do we need "Two and a Half Men" bad enough to support a crazed actor?
Ia there no other TV show that can take our minds off of our lot in life?

If not, we are all DOOMed
