Seriously, just cancel the show already. As lame as Sheen is, he was integral to the show. Replacing him after 9 seasons will not work.

I don't think Kutcher can act at all.

I don't know how CBS plans to pull off having Kutcher replace Sheen who is far older than him. So what's the deal? They think being married to Demi Moore has matured and aged Kutcher to the point that he can play a believable 40s-something character?

For all that Sheen has gone off the deep end lately, I just don't think a young Ashton Kutcher can carry the role of that old rascal Charlie Harper character and don't see another season for this show.

With that kind of money he can afford some acting classes.

Isn't Ashton a little old to play Jake's love interest?

If it's not Carlie Sheen, I have no interest. Screw you, Chuck Lorre.

One season and this non actor will be revealed as will the network that became obsessed with revenge. You see, we love Charlie. You place the anto Charlie charactef in his place and you expect us to keep watching.

I feel obligated to watch it even if it svcks, just to stick it Charlie Sheen. Its not all about you Charlie--its only mostly about you.

I remember back in the day Carrol O'C with tonner was the highest paid actor on TV for playing Archie Bunker. Salary...$17, 000 per episode. He could at least act. This million per episode. (Charlie Sheen, the cast of Friends) is obscene, particularly considering the acting chops of those who earn that fee.

Good points. Hell, even Redd Foxx was a better actor.

Hollywood throwing good money behind a actor that can't live up to this role.
