In an interview with NBCs Jeff Rossen that aired on TODAY Monday morning, Charlie Sheen, the combative star of long-running hit Two and a Half Men, demanded a raise from approximately $2 million to $3 million per episode to come back to the set of the show. CBS and Warner Bros. Television have currently halted production for the shows ninth season in the wake of Sheens very public rants against Men creator Chuck Lorre and Alcoholics Anonymous.
Im not angry, Im passionate, Sheen told Rossen. Its everybody thinks I should be begging for my job back, and Im just going to forewarn them that its everybody else thats going to be begging me for their job back.
Though he claimed he has been swamped with offers for movies, Sheen said: I am a man of my word, so I will finish the TV show. Ill even do season 10, but at this point, [because of] psychological distress, oh, my God, its 3 mil an episode.

He sincerely believes he should be given a 1 million dollar raise, do a bunch of movies and cured himself from drugs and alcohol and then says CBS should "lick his feet!!!!!!!"
So forget about the hell Obama has put us through, sit back and enjoy..... THE Charlie Sheen!!!
Oh make sure to watch BOTH videos! This is probably the craziest thing I’ve seen on TV since Michael Jackson died. TMZ is sure going to be busy!!!
Dude’s got an overly-inflated ego and he’s starting to believe his own press releases.
I believe he’s about to receive a smack-down of epic (even Biblical) proportions.
This guy needs some serious help and his lib father is AWOL.
I’ve never seen his show. He is entertaining though.
Only in California...
This sort of a thread is ideally suited for the General/Chat/TV forum.
Sorry wasn’t sure where to post this I did a search and couldn’t find anything posted, thought this would be entertaining for FReepers.
He is also the drunk who claimed his writer, who he made sure to point out was a Jewish man who changed his name to sound less Jewish, was a loseer. I assume that is Charlie’s assumption, although I can’t imagine being Jewish in Hollywood is a deterrent to having a job. Anyway, charlie said his writers, etc sleep with their ugly wives and have ugly children and loser lives. Apparently Charlie isn’t bright enough to realize those hookers and porn whores are being paid to be with him. So the Jewish Writer “Loser” (yeah I’d like to have his loser income!) has a wife and children but Charlie has to pay hookers to touch him.
This is a publicity goldmine, and the network stands to make huge money off this debacle. Sheen knows this.
Im not angry, Im passionate, (Sheen told Rossen) is a lefty phrase and I’ll bet Charlie learned this it from good ole dad Martin.
What's so entertaining about a man with progressively more severe psychiatric problems? Since when is sickness entertaining?
It’s what people look, sound and behave like once they have lost ALL objectivity!!
When is South Park going to lampoon the TSA?
Ok, I watched the ENTIRE video and if he is drunk or on drugs. He is living in a delusional wonderland that I would imagine is from too many years of destroying his brain with drugs and booze, I mean $20,000 of cocaine in one night!!!???!!! How does one not die off that much cocaine, I'm sure he was sharing but after so much partying when does the liver and kidneys shut down?
Anyways, like I said this is a nice thread to take our mind off all the hell going on in the world right now.
So for that, Thanks Charlie!!!
I just am DYING to be a fly on the wall in Martin Sheen's house, I would love to see what that convoluted lib is saying.
Oh yeah, this is ratings gold! Sheen will be a bargain for CBS at only a 50% increase.
There's a famous Hollywood quote that applies to Charlie, "I don't pay them to have sex, I pay them to leave." Paying means no commitment, no alimony.
I'm not a fan of Martin Sheen or his liberal politics, but I'm willing to give him a pass on this one. Just because Martin Sheen isn't going in front of the cameras every day to speak about his son doesn't mean that he isn't concerned. Charlie Sheen is completely out of control, and absolutely no one, including his father, can reason with him at this point.
