Charlie Sheen is having a heck of a mid-life crisis. In full view of the world.



He was not good for "Two and a Half Men" to have him as a co-star. It seems as through Sheen was completely out of touch with who the real star of the series was, namely the young man. Sheen wasn't respecting the fact he was sharing living rooms with people entertained by the idea 'it was a little man' that was fitting into the picture.


I liked "Three Men and A Baby." But, none of those actors disrespected 'the image' of 'children' on or off the screen.


Charlie Sheen has problems and he is not as brilliant as he may believe, although I don't believe he is a stupid person. He sesms to lack respect for the audience while not doing himself any favors. The 'scene' on the balcony with a machete resembles the appearance of Saddam Hussein. Now unless Charlie was promoting his next role, it was grossly inappropriate behavior especially considering the 'context' of role he played on television.


I hope his book is as interesting as he wants it to be, but, he needs a publisher, just as he needed a script writer and a network to sponsor his work. He was getting to be too risky for the network and the sponsors they were bringing in. I doubt sincerely the young boy in the program wanted to co-star in a program where viewers were tuning in for the next 'melt down.'


I believe CBS did the most moral thing they could do while protecting a 'child star' from embarassment and potential damage to his future career.


Sorry, Charlie.
