Dos hombres y medio

Two and a Half Men was my all-time favorite TV show. I watched every episode when it aired from the series premiere up until Charlie's exit. Now, I see it time to time, and I couldn't be more disappointed with Chuck Lorre and his crew. Nothing against Ashton Kutcher, he's trying his best to be funny, but he and Jon Cryer don't have the amazing chemistry that Sheen and Cryer did. To pile on, Jake (Angus T. Jones) has now left the show, replaced by Charlie's 25-year old lesbian daughter, Jenny (Amber Tamblyn).

I'll admit that I do still watch the show occasionally, not because I enjoy it, but more out of curiosity to see how bad it can really get. In my opinion, if the writers had done it right (assuming that firing Sheen was right, which it absolutely was not), after Charlie's death, they should have bumped Cryer up to lead actor, with Jones beside him, and added a young boy to the cast, carrying the title Two and a Half Men. Now it's Two Men, a Lesbian and a Housekeeper.

The plot is getting more and more far-fetched and unbelievable. That, and the jokes are nothing new. Alan, get out of my Malibu beach house. Bring home a woman and sleep with her. Blah blah blah, what used to be funny is not funny the hundredth time. With or without Charlie Sheen, this show is years past its prime, and needs to be done. Eleven seasons is a good run. Jon Cryer is great, and deserves better than this. Charlie, you were the heart of this show. And it died when Charlie Harper died.

Two and a Half Men is one of guilty pleasures. While not the best sitcom ever, it's still good. The show dropped down in quality a little bit when Charlie Sheen left and Ashton Kutcher took over. Charlie Sheen and John Cryer just had such great chemistry that it was going to drop a little in quality regardless who took over. The Sheen years were better than Kutchers but it's still decent with Kutcher. I would've like to see more with Sheen but unfortunately he lost his mind and had to be fired. The supporting actors are all pretty funny in this too. There are too many to name but they all do a good job. There's a reason that reruns are always on and that's because it's such a popular show.

As long as Charlie Sheen was there it was an awesome show. After he left the show, later seasons felt dud.

I'm giving 8 stars to the S1-S8. They are so funny to watch even repeatedly. To be honest, without Charlie,I never finish watching even one episode of S9 and I would not watch it any more. This show now is dead to me. I'd rather watch the former 8 seasons again and again. I like Charlie, Rose, little Jake, Berta and Evelyn in the show. At first I think this show is just for fun. But as I watch more, I realize that there are a lot of other things that I like which can make people stop to think. Charlie seems to be womanizing and nonchalant to his mother and brother at first. Yet I see a loving Charlie when Evelyn is vulnerable, when he comes into Jake's room to find the sulking Jake who is hiding in his room just because Charlie threatens Alan to move out. Rose loves Charlie so much and she is a good girl. So funny to see her head popping out from the deck. .... This show, S1-S8, is one of the best sitcoms in my eyes.

It was only two and a half men until season eight, after that it was just a simple show, a pity ... The role of Ashton Kutcher was good, but this sudden turn of the story and the events that caused it, I could not follow with the same mentality as before, this show belonged to Charlie Sheen, is and will be.
