"He just had it straight out of the box like it was genetically programmed into his body. That was fun and very self-assured," Cryer tells E.T. of Sheen in the early years of their CBS sitcom. He adds: "Then, in later years, when we started noticing things were getting stranger for him, and his marriage fell apart, he was still lovely to work with, he still showed up on time and knew his lines and was doing the job. But you could tell that there was some trouble brewing. He started to have issues with the writing and sometimes issues with the writing that I didn’t understand. I would say, 'This is the kind of joke you had no problem with a year and a half ago, and suddenly now it's an issue?' So, you know, it was very subtle. It took it it took a while before it started really going off the rails."
