C'mon let's be Pop and ride this crashing wave..!

So, Two and Half Man is dead, and with no real conclusion. But i want to take this on another direction...

20/20 interview. First part, jump to minute 3 for the interview
Part 2

So, this is just one of the interviews, you can find the others on youtube real easy. Now, here is the thing... when i watch this interview, the woman doind the Interview is th one that comes out like a Douchebag.... what?!

Sheen is fucking crazy, no doubt... but honestly? Guy seems like a dude with a LOT of money under a microscope, so i guess everyone would look bad, but... i don't think he is full of shit... dude is crazy, but not full of shit.

yeah... that's what i think of Charlie Sheen.

Here's what some guy who isn't me thinks about Charlie Sheen.

Here's what some girl who isn't me thinks about Two and a Half Men.

Yeah about the only time I can remotely respect Charlie Sheen is when he's playing a character that isn't exactly like him. He's very good at it and I wish he did it more. Maybe now he will have time.

I have completely missed the entire train with what happened here with Sheen.

Bells · 03-09-2011, 09:11 PM

Me either, but it's everywhere so now i just decided to make a quick recap

Crazy shit!

Quick recap, in the form of a question:

How much cocaine did Charlie Sheen do?

Enough to kill Two and a Half Men!

Jeez, what a bitch. :I

And she's completely ignoring that the show used to be a lot better before Jake was a douchebag of a teenager.

And yes, *clearly* Charlie is meant to be a role model. His behavior doesn't FREQUENTLY bite him in the ass or anything. The point of that episode isn't that you SHOULDN'T do what Jake did.

Anyway, I think that Charlie Sheen is kind of a fuck-up, but he's at least a funny fuck-up.

He comes off to me like he knows this and that he is amused he is still alive.

From the article:

Quote:

No one would look at this show and seriously think these characters are to be emulated, I know that. But the damage is still being done. It�s a this is how guys are and isn�t it so funny! and a wink wink nudge nudge boys will be boys kind of destructiveness[...]

So the sarcasm (to say nothing of that insult) is kind of unwarranted.

Yes, the people who wrote this show probably broke some ribs patting themselves in the back, congratulating their cleverness at doing a show constructed entierely of pure sexism and still making it seem moralizing by also making it into a schadenfreude comedy.

Still, every character on the show is an expression of sexism. Any objections to Sheen's character being a total sleazebag in the show itself come out of the brother, who's motivation never have to do with the sociopathy of it all. The brother is depicted as a stuck up, bitter square, and that's why he resents fun loving Charlie. And, if he's less of a sexist caricature of a sexist than his brother, he certainly doesn'y profit from that, does he? Having the latter take a pratfall at the end of some episodes certainly doesn't change the basic nature of the cast of characters.

Almost every sitcom dishes out punishment to their characters with little regard to "karma." Especially this one. Good riddance to it!

Seems like he's have something like the opposite of survivors guilt for having taken that much cocaine and survived...like survivors pride? Yeah, let's go with that. Especially when he acts like he he's from another world or something with the tigers blood and Adonis DNA. Guy is crazy.

That said, Two and a half men isn't dead. Sheen was just fired. They probably gonna replace him or carry on without him.

Enough to kill Two and a Half Men! __________________ I did a lot of posting on here as a teenager, and I was pretty awful. Even after I learned, grew up, and came to be on the right side of a lot of important issues, I was still angry, abrasive, and generally increased the amount of hate in the world, in pretty unacceptable ways. On the off chance that someone is taking a trip down memory lane looking through those old threads, I wanted to devote my signature to say directly to you, I'm sorry. Thank you for letting me be better, NPF.
