Charlie Sheen Says That His FX Show Is His Swan Song From Hollywood & Will Retire - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Is Charlie Sheen preparing to leave television after his FX show Anger Management succeeds (or fails)?

That’s what the former star of Two and a Half Men told the New York Times on Sunday. Sheen, whose comedy premieres on June 28, said he’s been acting for 30 years and “there’s a lot more out there to do than make-believe, you know?”

“I mean, I’m grateful,” he told the newspaper. “I’ve got a dream life as a direct result of television, you know? But at some point you just get tired of wearing somebody else’s clothes, saying somebody else’s words and working in somebody else’s space. I’m also aware of the fact that you don’t get these kinds of shots in the same lifetime. You’re only supposed to have one hit show, unless you’re Kelsey Grammer.

“When I’m done with this business it’s just going to be about soccer games and amusement parks,” he added, in reference to his children with ex-wives Denise Richards Brooke Mueller. “And when this ends, I’m done. This is my swan song.”

It'll be interesting to see how things shake up with this new show. I expect it to do HUGE numbers for FX.
