Charlie Sheen is officially unemployed.
According to a Variety (http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118033480) report, Warner Bros. has terminated Sheen's employment on 'Two and a Half Men.' (http://www.tvsquad.com/tag/two+and+a+half+men/) The studio sent the outspoken star a letter today informing him of the decision.
Sheen had one season left on his contract for the show, and has threatened to sue CBS and Warner Bros. for violating the agreement.
A studio representative told Variety that no decision has been made about whether 'Men' will continue next season without Sheen.
UPDATE: Sheen released the following statement to TMZ (http://www.tmz.com/2011/03/07/charlie-sheen-fired-two-and-a-half-men-chuck-lorre-warnerbros-cbs/): "This is very good news. They continue to be in breach, like so many whales. It is a big day of gladness at the Sober Valley Lodge because now I can take all of the bazillions, never have to look at whatshisc--k [Chuck Lorre] again and I never have to put on those silly shirts for as long as this warlock exists in the terrestrial dimension."
The last official word from CBS came last week when network honcho Les Moonves (http://www.tvsquad.com/2011/03/01/les-moonves-charlie-sheen/) said at a San Francisco conference, "Going down the road ... I don't know what's going to happen. I hope it's back. We'll see."
Though John Stamos initially denied reports that he would replace Sheen on the show next season, it was later revealed (http://www.tvsquad.com/2011/02/28/john-stamos-charlie-sheen-two-and-a-half-men/) that he spoke with Moonves a few weeks ago about the possibility.
treky 03-07-2011, 06:30 PM yea, I saw that on my AOL home page.
Well, can't say that I'm surprised!! I'm certainley not going to miss him!
Mr. Television 03-07-2011, 06:33 PM Now he's free to do a reality tv show....called "Inside Charlie's Brain. " :lol:
Mr. Television 03-07-2011, 06:57 PM http://www.tmz.com/2011/03/07/charlie-sheen-warner-bros-two-and-a-half-men-terminated-fired-contract-letter-lawsuit-cocaine-drugs-moral-turpitude-felony/
Warner Bros. To Charlie: Here's Why You're Fired
55 minutes ago by TMZ Staff
TMZ has obtained a letter Warner Bros. sent to Charlie Sheen's lawyer, stating Charlie was being terminated because he committed a felony involving "moral turpitude.
In the 11-page letter, obtained from sources connected to Charlie, Warner Bros. states, "Your client has been engaged in dangerously self-destructive conduct and appears to be very ill."
The letter then goes on to describe Charlie's hijinks, including trashing the Plaza Hotel in NYC, coke binges, on-set failures because of drug fatigue, and diatribes against "Two and a Half Men" creator Chuck Lorre.
The letter also notes that Charlie derailed production when he went into rehab, and then he fired his sobriety coach. In fact, Warner Bros. claims it was so concerned about Charlie's well-being, "Warner Bros. had an airplane waiting" to take him to a treatment facility ... but Charlie would have none of it.
As for why Charlie got fired, the letter says there is a clause in his contract saying they can fire a performer who commits "a felony offense involving moral turpitude."
The letter says, "There is ample evidence supporting Warner Bros. reasonable good faith opinion that Mr. Sheen has committed felony offenses involving moral turpitude (including but not limited to furnishing of cocaine to others as part of the self-destructive lifestyle he has described publicly) that have 'interfere[d] with his ability to fully and completely render all material services required' under the agreement."
In short, that's why Charlie was fired.
Charlie's lawyer, Marty Singer, has demanded Warner Bros. pay Charlie for the eight canceled episodes -- or else.
Warner Bros. seems undaunted by the threat, even reserving its right to take legal action against Charlie.

Awesome letter. Whomever wrote it is my hero.
Retro4Life 03-07-2011, 08:06 PM Well I never liked the show but I'm sorry for the crew. An 8 year run, particularly in this day and age, is very rare though, so I'm sure they'd have all had to find work soon anyway.
As to Sheen, only God and maybe his family can intervene now.
catlover79 03-07-2011, 09:12 PM ^ My feelings exactly!! :yeahthat
James28 03-07-2011, 09:14 PM Because of the controversy surrounding Charlie Sheen, he won't be granted entry into my new House of James nightclub. He would be like Constance McCashin when she got fired from Knots Landing as a cost-cutting measure and not wanting anything to do with that series anymore.

Great minds, huh? :lol:

I wish we could've seen the Donald give him the note and say, "Charlie, you're fired." :wave:
dlemond 03-07-2011, 10:54 PM So what is next?
It will be fun to watch his lawyers persue legal action while this derailed train continues it wrecking path.
Things you will see:
Another arrest.
Another hospital visit.
Sheen is still on this binge, so until it really ends and he can talk and act normal nothing of substance will happen on his end. No one will hire him, no law suit will come of anything.
Is anyone going to be surprised when we hear the lamenting apology of Sheen down the road.
Or if not, his death?
Warner Brothers are ******** for firing him, ratings will go down and will be canceled
Janice 03-07-2011, 11:24 PM Warner Brothers had no choice. How many jobs can you run around, slamming your bosses to the public? I never could stand that arrogant creep anyway because he hits women. Never men, the coward, just hits women.
Sheen's going to kick himself in the ass over this. His looks are gone, and he's only 45. Good luck to him finding a job that pays two million a week. I hope he overcomes his drug problem, but beyond that, good riddance. I feel bad for his former castmates, but he became impossible to deal with. Nothing but a giant crazy headache.
dlemond 03-07-2011, 11:29 PM Warner Brothers are ******** for firing him, ratings will go down and will be canceled
Please.
You would thnk they know the ramifications of firing the main attraction.
This isn't a move of bravado or ego on the part or Lorre or Warner Bros.
They know the show is basically done without him.
It's almost as if there is some altruism in the move.
At least on behalf of the staff so they can find new work- and not be left to the whim of Sheen.
There is no way a reasonable person can stand behind Sheen.

I stand behind Sheen because he can do whatever he wants
Mr. Television 03-07-2011, 11:45 PM Warner Brothers are ******** for firing him, ratings will go down and will be canceled
The show is already in it's 8th year. It only has a few more years anyway. They will still make millions off it in syndication. He wasn't worth putting up with anymore.
dlemond 03-07-2011, 11:46 PM I stand behind Sheen because he can do whatever he wants
Sure. He can do whatever he wants.
Beyond breaking the law.
Then deal with the ramifications of your actions. I'm sure when the dust settles and hopefully clears, he's going to be real happy about being restricted from seeing his kids, it's every parent's dream by the way.
Mr. Television 03-07-2011, 11:46 PM I stand behind Sheen because he can do whatever he wants
You'll probably stand right with him until he dies....which he will if he continues to go down this path.
treky 03-08-2011, 01:35 AM hopefully, this will be a wake-up call to him to get the help he so desperetly needs!!!
catlover79 03-08-2011, 01:45 AM Let me share a story of what one poisonous co-worker can do to an entire staff...how it can affect every worker involved. When someone who is exhibiting erratic behavior - it can create a very fearful working environment, no matter what line of work one is in.
A few years ago, I had a co-worker who exhibited extremely erratic behavior (I highly suspect she may have been manic depressive or bipolar) - and things got so bad that I dreaded coming into the office every day. I didn't speak to her unless I absolutely had to - and her behavior was affecting others in our department as well. Since I had to work the closest with her (we were the two assistant admins in our department), I was on the receiving end of the lion's share of her erratic behavior. Thankfully, she worked the 8 AM-4:30 PM shift and I handled the 11:30 AM-8 PM shift so the latter part of my day was a breeze. This went on for about 3 1/2 months.
Finally, I came in one Monday morning and was told the girl had quit. I highly suspect she was within an eyelash of being canned (I had confided in our immediate supervisor and kept her posted every day after the other girl had already gone home after her shift) and just beat them to the chase. To be fair, the girl was going through a lot of personal problems at the time (her parents were undergoing a very acrimonious divorce, and since she was the only child, she kept getting stuck in the middle). She could be very sweet, cheerful and docile one minute and be a raging thundercloud the next. Since we shared a very tiny office, it was like walking through a minefield. You never knew what would set her off.
After she left, I had to do all the work of two people, and it was totally exhausting. To keep up, I was working 11 hour days...and that period of October 2007-January 2008, when they got another assistant who worked out is one big blur. When the immediate crisis passed, I had a mini-breakdown. So much so that I was having nightmares, I couldn't eat, and dreaded coming into the office even though I knew full well this girl wasn't there. Long story short, my weight plummeted to under 100 lbs. and my mother had to take me to the doctor because I was too weak to drive myself. The doctor threatened to put me in the hospital and hook me up to a feeding tube if I didn't put weight back on myself.
So I did, I got back over 100 lbs. and things got smoother as time went on. But the destructive actions of one co-worker can make a ripple effect on the rest of the people around them. So I have a bit of an inkling on what the staff of this show might be going though.

ACCESS HOLLYWOOD: Charlie Sheen On Getting ‘Two and a Half Men’ Axe Via Text: ‘It’s Just Deplorable’
Access’ Billy Bush spoke with Sheen just minutes after the news broke.
ON TONIGHT’S ACCESS HOLLYWOOD (Syndicated, Check Local Listings)
LINK TO AUDIO: http://www.accesshollywood.com/charlie-sheen-fired-from-two-and-a-half-men_video_1312704
Charlie Sheen has blasted his former bosses at “Two and a Half Men” after they fired him on Monday afternoon.
In his first interview since learning the news, Sheen told Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush that his former bosses at Warner Bros. Television, which produces the show, did not contact him to break the news – he found out via technology.
“I got a text or something. Here’s another thing — these guys are such yellow cockroaches that they didn’t even have the decency to call me. I put 5 bill[ion] in their cheap suit pockets and another half a bil’ in what’s-his-cheese’s pockets and this is the f***ing respect I get?” Sheen told Bush. “It’s just deplorable and they should be ashamed of themselves!”
Sheen blamed his firing – not on his recent media onslaught – but on his former bosses not understanding the actor.
“Whatever. I guess if you can’t process a guy, or realize his value, you must terminate him,” Sheen told Bush. “That’s real high-brow thinking, really evolved thinking. I don’t know. It is what it is. I’m more worried about my children [Bob and Max] right now than any of this nonsense, you know.”
Sheen confirmed to Bush that he plans to move forward with potential legal action against his bosses for breach of contract.
“I think that they realized that,” Sheen said. “They exercised such a cheap move and [this is] so silly and so transparent and… it’s so juvenile. It is the work of infants. It is the work of silly infants and it’s just — if this is what it had to come to, to get me out of those silly shirts, then so be it. So maybe I’ll wear one, just on the final day when I go and remove all of their bazillions.”
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, on Monday afternoon, Warner Bros. Television, which produces “… Men” confirmed they had fired Sheen.
“After careful consideration, Warner Bros. Television has terminated Charlie Sheen’s services on ‘Two and a Half Men,’ effective immediately,” the statement read.
The news was annoucned just weeks after CBS and Warner Bros. Television pulled the plug on the remainder of the “Two and a Half Men” season after Sheen made a series of radio rants.
“Based on the totality of Charlie Sheen’s statements, conduct and condition, CBS and Warner Bros. Television have decided to discontinue production of ‘Two and a Half Men’ for the remainder of the season,” CBS said in a statement at the time.
Since production was halted on the current season of the show, Sheen has spoken out in a host of interviews, including Access Hollywood, and his own Internet talk show over the weekend.
Sheen had told Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush he hoped to work things out recently, noting his lawyer was going to give his terms to CBS CEO Leslie Moonves.
It was not immediately clear what the plans were for the future of “… Men,” but a report had surfaced multiple times that bosses were talking to “Glee’s” John Stamos.
“I love him. I like John, but he doesn’t have what I have and the show sucks if he’s on it,” Sheen previously told Bush before changing his position days later.
“I was out of line and you’re a beautiful man, and a talented man, and if you get the gig, we should talk,” Sheen told Los Angeles’ KTLA News last week.
CBS had no comment on the news that Warner Bros. Television had fired the actor.

Wow. I'm really sorry you had to go through that Monika. But I am very glad you have recovered from that experience. I've worked with a toxic co-worker too. I worked for a land surveyor for a few years. When I first started working there I didn't meet the bosses son for several months. Turns out he was in jail at the time. He had a drug problem. After he got out of jail his dad gave him a job. He could be very nice and personable at times. But sometimes he and his dad fought and argued (usually about money) and the rest of us had no choice but to listen to it. He was always trying to money (or bread as he called it) from his dad ostensibly to feed his wife and kids although we all knew it was really to feed his habit. One day he took off with the company vehicle (he claimed he had an appointment with his probation officer) and left myself and a co-worker stranded at a jobsite. Every payday we would have to sit in the office and listen to he and his dad argue inhis dad's office while we were waiting for our paychecks.(he never did the payroll in advance so on payday we would have to sit and wait for him to do the payroll and then race to get to the bank before closing time) Anyway the boss's son made that a company a very uncomfortable and stressful place to work. Fortunately (and by the grace of God!) I didn't suffer with physical symptoms like Monika although I definitely had a lot of stress related to the situation. So I agree with Monika that the cast and crew of the show will have been affected by Charlie's behavior and I feel badly for them.
I saw clips of Sheen's webcast from last night. They were beyond disturbing. The guy's either deranged, on meth or both.

That's quite a story, Monika. Thanks for sharing. I've worked in poor environments myself. It was usually because of bosses who expected miracles, office politics, etc. One job was so bad that I would often break down in tears at the dinner table. My husband told me to just quit; so you guessed it, I just quit. I lasted only three months. I was never afraid of working hard, but that job was just insane.
I'm glad everything worked out for you, and I hope you find a good job now that appreciates you for the gem that you are. :)

It's interesting because he's a high-paid celebrity on a top sitcom who is cracking up before our very eyes. When have we seen that happen before? His father and brother are famous. People are curious to see what's going to happen next. It's also very sad. He's a talented actor with five kids. A lot of people lose out by his breakdown. There's also a good chance that he may die.
Retro4Life 03-08-2011, 08:44 PM If there were any doubt about his degenerative state, the most recent homemade video of his ranting has dispelled them for me. This guy is really, really near the edge. I agree with Janice's stated reasons behind the interest here, but a big part of me is uncomfortable with my own interest. It's human nature, but I wish it weren't.

I know what you mean. I have alot of different emotions in all this. First I'm mad at him... he's full of himself...and then I have to admit he's funny. I've got a kick out of some of the things he's said. And last, it's sad because I know how this is going to end.
Miss Lisa 03-09-2011, 06:20 PM Lets be honest here, the only true reason he got fired was because he said something against his boss. Im not his biggest fan, nor do I agree with anythign he has done, but seriously? They're going to fire him over that? Out of everything that he has done over the past couple of years with trashing the hotel, getting the cops called on him because he was fighting with his wife, drug addictions, and this is what he gets fired for? Chuck Lorre must have some ego issues here.

It was the last straw. That's all I hear all his defenders talk about. The guy is falling apart. They shut the show down before he went public like this. They wanted him to get help. He refused and started to trash them. They had no choice but to fire him. Charlie Sheen is going to die unless someone steps in. Letting this just go isn't helping him at all.

You want to lay this on Chuck Lorre? Charlie Sheen has been on a binge for months now, then he goes on a public display of lunacy, complete with call girls and strippers that he calls goddesses. Any actor representing a show who did this would get fired. Even if Lorre took offense at being publicly called a contaminated little maggot, a turd, a p***y punk, a clown, and saying he wishes him nothing but lots of pain, so what; who wouldn't. Sheen had to go. He became a liability to the show. The world doesn't revolve around Charlie Sheen. Nobody gets away with talking about their boss that way, especially publicly. Let him see now just how good he had it. He'll never be given the opportunity to act that way again while being on a top rated show. His best days are behind him. The novelty is wearing off. Most people are sick of listening to him. It's like, someone drop a net over this nutjob already.
catlover79 03-10-2011, 12:55 AM It's not the fault of the crew and other cast members that Charlie Sheen is a disaster. If I were in their place, I'd be pulling my hair out!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

I wasn't blaming Chuck Lorre, I was just saying that it was ridiculous how he didn't get fired for anything else that he did. Exactly what you have said, binge drinking, call girls, drugs. None of that puts his job at stake, but the second he insults someone he's fired. I know that no one can go and talk about their boss like that, but before that, he was showing up drunk and or high to work, which most people if they did that would get fired.

It's called the final straw. They were trying to get him into rehab, doing everything they could to help him. Sheen did everything but spit in their faces. Enough was enough. What do you think would happen if one of The View ladies went on a verbal rampage against Barbara Walters, if one of the crew members on Oprah's show called her every name in the book, publicly? Who cares if they cut Sheen 100 breaks before. When he went public, it was over for him, as it should have been.

If his "goddesses" were smart, they'd toss a Lithium or two into his CocoPuffs in the morning. THAT'S the drug he does need at the moment.
catlover79 03-12-2011, 04:32 PM ^ You're not kidding. Do his parents or any other family members have the legal right to have him committed? :confused:

Nope - they have to just stand back and watch the disaster unroll with the rest of us. Obviously his "rock bottom" seems to be the bottomless pit right now.
Frankly, I'm a little surprised a certain someone hasn't risen up, as in the past, messiah-like.....

Hollow 03-12-2011, 08:06 PM ^ You're not kidding. Do his parents or any other family members have the legal right to have him committed? :confused:
an adult can only be committed against their will if a doctor or judge deems them an immediate threat to themselves. it's usually only done with cases like suicidal tendencies and eating disorders on the brink of death. as it stands with charlie, i'm pretty sure he's just incredibly pissed off and has a very entertaining way of handling it.
i applied for his internship. he is a god.
catlover79 03-12-2011, 08:40 PM Hmmm - I never was exactly sure what the protocol was for committing an adult living on his/her own. Thanks.
Janice 03-12-2011, 08:46 PM There was a psychiatrist on a talk show other day who practices in New York. He said if he practiced in California, based on Sheen's actions and statements, he would have him committed. It's not a big a deal as some make it out to be. Swinging a machete on top of a building is not exactly normal behavior for an adult man, especially one given Sheen's violent past. Sheen has publicly stated that he needs help (below).

After weeks of erratic behavior, Charlie Sheen finally admits--in an interview with Life & Style--that he's falling apart.
"I'm really starting to lose my mind," he confesses to Life & Style. "I'm ready to call anyone to help."
It's a shocking turnaround --the first sign of vulnerability he's shown throughout this whole circuslike period. But when estranged wife Brooke Mueller was granted temporary custody of their 2-year-old twins, Max and Bob, it sent Charlie into a tailspin. "She can't keep them from me," Charlie tells Life & Style. "I won't let her -- I'll do anything to get them back."
And he's apparently become so desperate and ravaged by the effects of addiction, his words are becoming more and more frightening.
"I'm really trying to contain myself right now," Charlie tells Life & Style. "My lawyer wants to come over to my house and take the bullets out of my gun."
Loved ones fear that having his kids taken away along with the news of being fired from Two and a Half Men could push him over the edge. "It's crazy over here at the house," says a source who was with him on March 7, the day the news broke. "Charlie's losing it. He's really mad about the show, and dealing with the kids and Brooke is getting to be too much. Charlie is a ticking time bomb, and we all fear he could do something drastic like committing suicide or falling back on hard drugs."
Another insider agrees, "Anything could happen at any minute. He's a danger to himself -- a really big danger."

I don't know any of the rules or anything, but shouldn't his past actions all togetehr be enough to get him committed? I mean he has threatened other people's lives. I don't know though.

That's the way this psychiatrist made it sound. I've also heard a lot of legal eagles on shows say the same thing. If he really passed a drug test as he claimed, he's either tricking the system or he's really off the wall.
I don't wish him any ill will, but I've never liked Charlie Sheen because he beats women. Never hear of him fighting with any men; just terrorizing women. Also, when Sheen and Denise Richards were breaking up, she taped a phone call with Sheen where he said, "Oh go cry to your bald mother." I wondered where the hell that came from and figured that her mother had that alopecia that some women get (baldness). Shortly after I heard that Denise's mother died from kidney cancer. I then put it together. Her mother was most likely bald because of chemotherapy. I think Sheen is an arrogant sicko in more ways than one.
catlover79 03-12-2011, 09:20 PM ^ Wow, I'd never heard about that. How mean and cruel can one get? :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
Janice 03-12-2011, 09:24 PM ^ Wow, I'd never heard about that. How mean and cruel can one get? :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
Sheen's not a nice guy at all. He's also a huge truther as in he thinks the government was behind 9/11.

Great article, very enlightening and reasoned.

catlover79 03-12-2011, 09:57 PM Thanks for sharing that article. I never knew about some of those incidents. Thank God Kelly Preston broke things off with him and found true love with John Travolta. I also read someplace that he dated Robin Wright when both were in their teens.

You're welcome. It certainly was an eye opener for me, too. All of these people who are championing him as some sort of 'rebel' need to realize what they are really dealing with.
catlover79 03-12-2011, 10:31 PM It's just sickening. How can any woman get sucked in by him? :confused:
Retro4Life 03-12-2011, 10:35 PM Sadly, this type of thing doesn't seem to be relegated to Hollywood alone. :(
catlover79 03-12-2011, 11:12 PM Isn't that the truth. :(

I know, I hadn't heard either until Janice told me last week. What a creep eh? This, to the mother of two of your children.
I know a "nice skank" he could hook up with. She says similar stuff on phone calls - only to strangers who've never done anything to her. Would make a lovely pair.

You're quite welcome.
Penny Lane 03-13-2011, 04:55 PM I haven't read all of the threads so this might have been posted already. On Facebook there is a link called" Charlie Sheen found dead" or something like that! Don't click on it as I have read that it contains a virus.:eek:
