"Anger Management" To Run Non-Stop for Two Years

There won’t be any let-up for Charlie Sheen’s "Anger Management" issues any time soon.
Appearing at the Television Critics Association’s winter press tour in Pasadena on Wednesday, FX president John Landgraf detailed that the comedy — which after a 10-episode freshman run was renewed for 90 episodes (!) – will unspool that massive inventory virtually non-stop for the next two years starting Thursday, Jan. 17.
“We’ll essentially have 45 new episodes per year,” he said, nothing that the only breaks will be for holiday and sports programming and such.
As for any tweaks made for Season Mega-2, Landgraf said that, as previously announced, Sheen’s real-life father Martin Sheen was made a series regular, as the fictional Charlie’s own dad.
“I thought it would be a better series if it was also a multi-generational series,” he explained.
