    What a interesting way to discover there’s a new show called Bookie and Sheen and Lorre have patched things up:

    Sheen, whose chaotic personal life saw him depart his hit sit-com Two and a Half Men a dozen years ago, recently spoke with Deadline of his contentment in teaming up again recently with that show’s creator Chuck Lorre on Bookie, and how he’d be quick to say yes to another request from Lorre:

    “If he decided, ‘Hey man, let’s finish how we started,’ if he said that, I’m asking where and when… And then whatever happens after that, whatever the results are, and if people love it or hate it, that’s out of my hands. But just on my observations, I have it on pretty good authority that they would enjoy it.”

      I’m not super surprised they patched things up. Charlie Sheen revealed in 2015 that he contracted HIV in 2011, which was the same year he did all the stuff that got him fired. Would not be surprised if the diagnosis caused a breakdown.

        He certainly seemed to be off the rails there. I was surprised at how much he bite the hand that fed him beyond the memes on Winning and Tiger Blood. I was a part time viewer of the show back when I still had cable so I was aware of some of it.

        I read the indepth Deadline interview linked in the article. It had some interesting tidbits about his younger years in the business and his family too.

        Hopefully he’s able to stay on the rails going forward.

      Wow that’s nice to see that they repaired that relationship.

      Charlie said some pretty mean shit about Chuck at the time and they tossed his ass out with good cause.

      Sucked too because two and a half men was never the same.

        I just watched the first 7 episodes in the background. Fun in a rated R or HBO way. Big change from what I’ve been watching lately of Mr Belvedere, Parker Lewis, and 30 Rock. They were pretty sterile in relation.
