Charlie Sheen to CBS, Warner Bros: 'We Are at War
The Hollywood Reporter ^ | 2/25/2011 | Mark Cina

Posted on 02/26/2011 7:49:27 AM PST by chickadee

Charlie Sheen has launched another crude attack against his bosses at CBS and Warner Bros following Thursday's announcement that the remaining season of Two and a Half Men has been scrapped.

On Friday, Sheen (now in the Bahamas) called into the radio show Loose Cannons and lashed out at his bosses - whom he called "clowns" - for "getting up in my grill, telling me how to live my personal life."

"I kept saying back off, back off - and they wouldn't," he added. "I kept asking for that respect and I couldn't get it.

The gum on the bottom of my shoe has more significance than Charlie Sheen.

Back in the 1980’s, I watched many friends go down hard on cocaine. Mr. Estevez sure seems to be on a classic coke-fueled bender.

There doesn’t appear to be any real friends in his life to keep him grounded. And that will make the crash all the worse.

Truthfully, I don’t think another actor could make the show work. There is something likable about the Charlie Harper character (and I think it is Sheen that brings that quality to the role) even though his morals stink and his lifestyle is mostly excrement. I think underneath it all, Charlie Harper realizes that sheltering his brother and nephew gives his tawdry life meaning.

I think Sheen is well aware of that - hence his plaintive comments last week about doing best when he is working.

Hopefully this spoiled, arrogant , son of another spoiled actor is committing professional suicide.

Other producers should learn to avoid him like the plague.

Perfect example of a decent amount of talent wasted and destroyed by a dissolute,hedonistic , amoral lifestyle. I pity the children he fathered- and blame the stupid women who bred with him as well!
He has also cost a lot of talented people their jobs on that show.
They’ll get other work( maybe a spinoff without his character) and he’ll degenerate into another self-destroyed wreck.
All that money used to self-destruct!

And therein lies your problem Charlie...you don’t ASK for respect. Respect is EARNED and GIVEN FREELY by others.

Drug-abuse is a maelstrom. To escape one needs help from friends or family whom are anchored in a solid, happy, loving life.

Sheen will get little respect until he learns to respect himself. I have seen too many successful, talented people throw their lives away with drugs and alcohol. I don't respect any of them for it. It's weakness.

He resorted to TV due to the lack of movie rolls, but now is pissing away that opportunity as well...at 2-million dollars an episode, that is total waste on his part.

Who cares? and that TV show that Sheen is or was in was the most unfunniest show on TV. No wonder barely anyone watches TV anymore. What a waste.

He may very well have done that when he referred to Chuck Lorre as Chaim Levine and expounded on him lying next to his ugly wife with his ugly kids.

Creeping anti-semitism can pretty much doom you in Hollywood. Just ask Mel Gibson.

As Adam Sandler put it, "So many Jews are in the show biz..."

Whoever thinks Charlie Sheen is a great actor is fooling themselves, he just portrays himself on TV, how hard is that!

I lost interest in the show a long time ago, how many times can you rerun the same stale story. Charlie’s drunk, he’s got a new woman, he doesn’t want a commitment to her, he insults Alan, the kid makes a few wise cracks, Charlie refers to Alan as a freeloader and Charlie comes out fine by the end of the show!

There no one has to watch it ever again!

Really? He's an Obama supporter & he think Bush blew up the Twin Towers. Still like the guy now?

Look for Charlie Sheen to be featured soon on Spike TV’s “1000 Ways to Die.”

“BTW, my dead pool date for this creep is April 27 2011”

He will commit suicide. The drugs won’t kill him but depression will. He’s lashing out in frustration and not being content.

KFI got the audio a 1/2 hour after he called in (to the other station), and they had to work for an hour to cut and bleep his foul language out.
