Wow, that's even unfunnier than the show.
Nothing associated with the show can possibly be funny. But yeah thats what I sound like if I happen to see an episode

... was that a real interview? I know it's a part of ABC News' official YouTube channel, but damn... I just, don't know what to say. >.>

I can't help but shake my head towards those out there making millions of dollars a year, yet are running around partaking in such self-destructive behaviour.

OT - I've watched the show a few times here and there 'cause it happened to be on TV. I will admit, I originally thought I wouldn't like the show, but after a few episodes it wasn't so bad. It's not good, but it's not entirely bad either. That being said, I wouldn't choose to watch it.

I've witnessed around 15 minutes of it, and it was not good.
I think they should keep feeding Mr. Sheen all manner of narcotics and letting him expound his Charlie-centric worldview on live television. That is far more amusing.

I quite liked it. His interview on Good Morning America is a quote mine.


"Bi-winning".
"Droopy eyed, armless children".

There are quite a few shows I watch regularly that I would hesitate to describe as "good", but are very watchable...and there's nothing wrong with that.
This guy is a walking internet MEME machine! O_O I suspect we're going to be hearing these in MANY multiplayer games for years to come! Plus anything else that drops out of his mouth brain. ._.

The canned laughter we're used to hearing in shows like this is a subliminal tool. Ever notice how we're much more inclined to laugh at something when someone else laughs? We can even realize, "man, that wasn't THAT funny, but hah!" Laugh tracts are critical in sitcoms because even when they fail at delivering their low grade humor to their target demographic (for which they believe their low grade humor is perfect for), they need to remind their audience that this scene is funny. If they're not thinking, they'll be more inclined to believe it's funny.

But it's not like it's hypnotism or anything. A tiny bit of thought behind "is this funny" will break the subliminal suggestion.

edit, oops, I quoted the wrong guy. Uh, you just imagine this was for you and that this message I quoted fits what I'm talking about. :)

I like it. It consistently makes me laugh, even though it replays the same jokes over and over. Haha, Charlie Sheen is a womanizer. Haha, the cleaning lady has good one-liners. I don't know what it is - I'm expecting the joke, I'm not surprised when it arrives, but I still find it funny. Predictable yet enjoyable.

I like it, I think its funny.

Probably because I'm vastly less intelligent than you.

From the few times I've watched it I found it utterly unfunny. So it failed to me. Doesn't mean I hate it, just that the show doesn't elicity any laughter from me.

My brother and my dad like it, but I can't really say that it has engaged me to a point where I will actively go out of my way to watch it. I can kinda see why other people might like it, but it isn't one of my preferences.

I like it.
It's not comedy gold, it's nothing groundbreaking, but it's entertaining to me. That's all I need from a TV show.

It used to fill some time but once the jokes were getting recycled for the third time and their was no new content I lost interest quickly, so I'd have to say meh, but when I first saw it, it was good enough to keep me coming back whenever I saw it was on assuming there wasn't anything I genuinely really liked or I had the motivation to immerse myself in a game or a book.

It almost never made me laugh though, but sitcoms don't generally, not even particularly good ones.

tl;dr : It's a bit shit now.

OK, first thread.

Every time I read about Two and a Half Men, 9 out of 10 comments show pure hatred for the show. I just wanted to see what people on the Escapist think of it.

And while we're here, why do you like/dislike/not care about it?
Now are they for the show, or for Charlie Sheen? Cause theres a different of criticizing an actor and a show.

OT: Its oka. I mean, I could watch it, but its nothing particularly funny or new.

: "Perhaps the same could be said about all sitcoms!"

But seriously, this one clip pretty much summarized the problem I have with every sitcom I've ever seen.

EDIT: But I did laugh, and I couldn't honestly tell you whether it was at the show itself or at the meta-humor.
