Coming Soon: One and a Half Men? (Goodbye, Charlie)

This is its 8th season

The year end rank (overall) is listed

Season 1 - #15
Season 2 - #11
Season 3 - #17
Season 4 - #19
Season 5 - #16
Season 6 - #10
Season 7 - #11

The show does better in key demographics though.
 
I have been noticing in the more recent new episodes they have been concentrating on Charlie's drinking problems. I thought they were leading up to something. No one could survive long on the way he's been drinking. So maybe that's an out.
 
The worst part of the whole Sheen misbehaving thing is that by putting the show on hiatus it deprives a talented group of co-stars of their jobs as well (not to mention all the off-camera people involved with the show).

I sincerely hope Charlie gets his act together but history isn't on his side.
 
How much longer can the show run, anyway, even if Charlie Sheen wasn't having SUBSTANCE ABUSE ISSUES? I've always enjoyed the show, but I'm finding this season the scripts seem to be a little more uneven than in previous seasons. There are more shows from this season that are just uninspired or just not funny at all than there have been in the last couple of seasons combined. I'm afraid they are beginning to run out of fresh ideas for the show. I just hope it doesn't end up like a lot of other classic sitcoms and stay around a year or two longer just for the ratings (and the Money).
 
Last night Jon Cryer really showed he's the most talented actor in that cast.

Yesterday's "Bewitched' on WGN had a character named Charlie Harper.

Agreed, but his character would be boring without being able to play off other characters. If they HAD to finish the season without Charlie, they could focus on Judith, Herb, or Evylin, but it wouldn't be the same without Sheen to hold the sub-plots together.

Cryer can get annoying too.

I'm not disagreeing with you.

You could say that about everyone in the cast, including Sheen. It is not stand-up comedy, after all.

I have said Cryer is the best of that cast since season 2 but there are some really fine secondary actors, including some of the guest girls - April Bowlby and Kelly Stables come to mind quickly and the girl who plays "Mia" (I can't begin to spell her name). In short, I think they got the casting pretty much perfect.

BTW, on another site I noticed Sheen's lawyer is being quoted as saying he'll be back to work in about two weeks.
