Official: Ashton Kutcher joins 'Two and a Half Men'
by James Hibberd
It’s official: Ashton Kutcher has replaced Charlie Sheen as the star of CBS’ Two and a Half Men.
Kutcher joins returning stars Jon Cryer, Angus T. Jones, Holland Taylor, Marin Hinkle and Conchata Ferrell on the top-rated series, which will be back on the air next fall. Production starts this summer.
“I can’t wait to get to work with this ridiculously talented 2.5 team and I believe we can fill the stage with laughter that will echo in viewers’ homes,” said Kutcher in a statement. “I can’t replace Charlie Sheen but I’m going to work my ass off to entertain the hell out of people!”
Kutcher will reportedly earn nearly $1 million an episode to join the hit series. It’s not clear whether the salary includes any backend profits from reruns but it’s still hundreds of thousands more than what any A-list star would earn to join a show.
“We are so lucky to have someone as talented, joyful and just plain remarkable as Ashton joining our family,” said Chuck Lorre, creator and executive producer of the show. “Added to that is the deep sigh of relief knowing that our family stays together. If I was any happier, it’d be illegal.”
CBS and Warner Bros. searched for a well-known name to fill Sheen’s shoes, with Hugh Grant coming closest to signing onto the show before dropping out earlier this week. Kutcher has plenty of sitcom experience from his days on That ’70s Show, though the Fox series was more of an ensemble whereas on Men the actor will have to perform a large amount of the comedic heavy lifting.
Since word of his casting leaked yesterday, fans have debated whether he’s a good choice for the role, but the main issue is having anybody other than Sheen starring in a hit show that was, to some extent, built around his persona.
“Ashton is a pop culture triple threat—film star, cutting-edge producer and a social media pioneer,” added Nina Tassler, President, CBS Entertainment. “He brings creativity, energy and personality to everything he touches.”
“Ashton Kutcher brings a new and distinctive comedic flavor to Two and a Half Men,” said Peter Roth, President, Warner Bros. Television. “We look forward to a great future for this revamped and reenergized show.”
“The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge.”― Stephen Hawking
I could be wrong but my impression of Ashton Kutcher is that he is a twat.
2.5 men going from "Guy" show to "Chick" show. Might as well change the title and put it on Lifetime.
Can't Control your Future. Can't Control your Friends. The women start to hike their skirts up. I didn't have a clue. That is when I kinda learned how to smile a lot. One Two Three Fouir fun ter thehr fuur.
Ever notice that both he and Bruce Willis have the same smirk on their faces? It must be Demi Moore, though I've always sensed something not-quite-right about her. I'm not saying she has a penis or anything (that is another subject altogether, ask Jamie Lee Curtis) like that, she just seems like a cold fish.Originally Posted by Seshmeister

no shite
Another one of those classic genius posts, sure to generate responses. You log on the next day to see what your witty gem has produced to find no one gets it and 2 knotheads want to stick their dicks in it... Well played, sir!!
Does anyone even watch this fucking show anymore? Now that the kid's grown up, the premise doesn't make sense anymore.
This won't last a full season. Ashton's not "winning".....he's getting Punk'd
Syndication really ruined it. Why watch the new episodes when the old ones were on two or three times a night? And if that wasn't overkill enough, FX had the bright idea to start showing the reruns as well, often devoting an entire evening's programming to the show. The last time I even bothered watching a recent episode was when Krusty the Clown, err...Eddie Van Halen showed up.
Was hoping they would get Jeremy Piven, Ashton Kutcher is just to douchy for my taste. Johnny Knoxville would have been better then this to.
I'm not sure how that would work out, even though Entourage is coming to a close with its final season. Piven is fuckin' awesome, but he'll always be seen as Ari 'motherfuckin' Gold for the entire rest of his career.
Besides, he's overqualified for a sitcom that's long-in-the-tooth and completely out of gas.
Bummer, I hadn't heard that.
Probably the right call, though. Even though I still enjoy it, that show jumped the shark last season if not before.

Hot shit.
I may actually watch the show now. The only episode I ever saw was the one with EVH.
I could never stand Charlie Sheen. He's vile.
Ashton is actually pretty funny, I loved him on That 70s Show. He has good timing with his lines, and soooo friggin easy on the eyes.
Ashton looks like he may be a Van Hagar fan.
The Power Of The Riff Compels Me
So will it be a Dukes of Hazzard scenario? Will Ashton be their cousin while Charlie leaves to go race on the nascar circuit? That way they can stay in the same house on the beach?
Winning!
Possibly the most smug actor in Hollywood.
Exactly... and why? Because he married some chick who is 20 or 30 years older than he is - only to hang out with her creepy ex-husband at every social event??
hahahahahah - Vain is green eyed
Ashton knows that and Bruce for that matter, knows that having a female makes for a good nights sleep.
I wonder if Willis asked Ashton what his dick tastes like?
They may not partake in gay sex. Good God, why would there be a need?
I do not think Bruce or Ashton are broken.
That is one big love I would chichi.
i'd have thought 'tripod' tiger woods a much better choice... now that his golf career looks in doubt, he could swan about in green jackets cracking(?) one liners(?) about his *ahem* various off course pursuits. ladies and gentlemen, the intercourse champion!!!! w00t
The problem is he will always be Kelso. In every role in every part. Much like Keanu Reeves. Zero range. But if the part is written with that in mind, it might be okay. I think this will flop though. It will get enormous ratings the first show, and possibly a couple right after that. But I don't see the ratings staying high much after that.
But who knows. If it is a rebirth for the show, it could go another 5 seasons. All depends on what they do with the plot and if it is believable & funny.
I'm just glad they are keeping it going for the sake of John Crier and the kid who finally started making good money this season. Those 2 guys are great and deserve to keep working and not have Charlie fuck it all up.
“Great losses often bring only a numb shock. To truly plunge a victim into misery, you must overwhelm him with many small sufferings.”
Wrong....
Trolls take heed...LOG OUT & FUCK OFF!!!
agree jimi. that bloke is an A grade fuckwit. and not really talented at all, imho.
Unless you're up all night hittin' it like it's a marathon....having a female makes for a good nights sleep.

Demi Moore lives in Hailey, Idaho which is just a few miles down the road from where I grew up. She's nice enough to buy the fireworks every 4th of July. My uncle is a structural engineer and did the engineering on her house when she was still married to Bruce Willis. They wanted a log home but were afraid of fire danger so they had a house made of molded concrete to look like logs. It cost an absolute fortune but my uncle said the job was so well done you can't tell it's concrete. They brought in experts from California who build movie sets and amusement rides to do the work. I wonder if she still lives in that house.
go for a drive, check it out....
Is this uncle a brother of the one that went to the moon or is he on the side of the family with all the presidents?
Perhaps, but Bale can act, so he's actually got something to be smug about.Wrong....
Scramby eggs and bacon.
I mean, not to belittle anyone who likes the show, but to me 2 & 1/2 Men was a typical piece of formulaic sitcom shit to begin with. Like, regardless of how much revenue it generated or how many people watched it, it was still swill. Thus, does it really matter if Sheen stays or Kutcher replaces him? It's lightweight brain fluff, so Kutcher shouldn't have any problems fitting right in, and fans of the show shouldn't have any problem accepting him. It's not like going from Sheen to Kutcher is a downgrade on a scale of, say, Masterpiece Theater to Hee-Haw. Far as Crier and the kid go, um, there are plenty of people out there working much harder for much less; I doubt they were living on food stamps prior to this season, you know?
I liked That 70's Show. Kutcher has a facility for playing good-natured dimwits and is able to hit his marks, so I'm sure he has the necessary...er..."skill set" to pull off whatever role is created for him on the show.
Best thing to come out of the whole Men series for me WAS Sheen's drug-induced barrage of media rantings. Beyond that, the rest is of no consequence.
My niece is an interior designer and was hired by Mitt Romney last year. My mom went to school with John Hunstman and they were friends so if his son runs and wins the presidency in 2012 then yes, we might have connections to a president.
Well one thing you all did not ask is: What Part?
Cryer is moving into Sheen's Role while the Kid is taking Cryer's part. Kutcher is now the .5.
kiss of death.
Kutcher will be the new McGinley.
I dunno... I may be drunk - I am - but I got the feeling that somehow, women actually like this little ridiculous toadstool.
It can only be due to women sharing a single brain throughout all of 'em. There's no other explanation.
Dome More tries to make Die Hard jealous, so she picks a young, cuntish fuckstain to do it. Naturally, after that every woman suddenly finds Ashton attractive.
Die Hard doesn't give a fuck because he knows he can do Dome whenever he wants - which he probably still does - and now he gets the added benefit of this ridiculous looking thing paying the bills.
But still, if Dome More is "attracted" to the weird looking cunt, there's gotta be something about him, right?
Well, either that or it's the, huh... what's the complex for when the mother wants to do the son? The reverse of that Oedipus shit? "Oh, he's so fuckin' inept, I bet I could mother him & shit"...
Truth is, every woman that say she can't stand Charlie Sheen would jump in bed with the guy as son as he cracked a smile at them. Sure, they'll deny it & they'd try & keep it a secret, but they would... women lie, all the time, that's the sincerest truth of all.
I get more & more disappointed by women every day. If gays weren't even more fucked up, I'd consider switching.
As it is, I'm just hoping for a fuckin' miracle. Ha!
Cheers! :bottle:

I was about to say...was Ted McGinley busy?
I was never big on that show anyway, saw about 3 episodes....seemed to me that Charlie was playing Charlie..which can't be that hard.
What the hell is Kutcher gonna play? The idiot? He's done that already.
Should have called that guy who played "Red".
I give it three episodes and then a prompt cancellation.
