Exclusive: Charlie Sheen Pursues a Return to "Two and a Half Men"
Sep 22, 2014

As "Anger Management" nears the end of its 100-episode order, Charlie Sheen is bracing for what may be the FX sitcom's wrap. Simultaneously, his previous series, "Two and a Half Men", is also about to end — and Sheen would like to be a part of that send-off.

Sheen tells TV Guide Magazine that he has approached "Two and a Half Men" with an idea about how he could make a return to the sitcom. "I've reached out to them and they've reached back," he says.

"We're trying to figure out what makes the most sense. If they figure it out like I've presented it to them and they want to include me in some final send-off, I'm available and I'm showing up early. If not, it's on them."

Sheen says his return would be a sign of "good will and a tip of the hat to the fans." But such a homecoming would seem unlikely after Sheen's infamous exit in 2011.

The actor was fired from "Two and a Half Men" after taking inflammatory shots at executive producer Chuck Lorre and CBS; he then sued Lorre, the network and Warner Bros. TV, the studio behind the show.

When "Two and a Half Men" returned in fall 2011, Sheen's character, Charlie Harper, had been killed, and Ashton Kutcher joined the show to fill the void. Sheen immediately went to work on "Anger Management", which premieres this week in syndication on broadcast TV stations around the country.

"Two and a Half Men's" producers and Warner Bros. TV promised that big surprises were in store for the show's final season. But at this summer's Television Critics Association press tour, CBS Entertainment president Nina Tassler told reporters there were no discussions to bring Sheen back.

Nonetheless, Sheen has softened his rhetoric against Lorre over the past year. Last November, Sheen went on Twitter to pitch Lorre an idea "that u need to hear after I make amends to you and yours."

So have Sheen and Lorre made peace?

"Ethereally we have, personally we have not," Sheen says. "But I'm easy to grab. He was doing his job, I was doing mine. At the end of the day, the guy's a genius. Look at what he does. I don't have to spend time with him anymore for him to be brilliant. I wish him nothing but the best."

What would it take now?

According to Sheen: "Just a couple of hugs and a couple of high-fives and see you guys on a Friday night, let's do this in front of an audience."

Of course, Sheen also says that "it's about time" that "Two and a Half Men" ends.

"Wait, was that out loud?" he jokes. "On the record, I would love to return."

Charlie Sheen won't be returning to CBS' "Two and a Half Men" anytime soon.

Producers Warner Bros. Television denied a TV Guide Magazine report indicating that Sheen reached out — and the studio reached back — about his return for the final season of the Chuck Lorre comedy, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.

He blew his chances to return.

I would think it's extremely doubtful that former stars Charlie Sheen and Angus T. Jones return for guest spots on the upcoming final season of Two and a Half Men. I think Jones, who left TaaHM after Season 10, wants nothing to do with the sitcom anymore.

Regardless of that, it'll be interesting to see how the final season of TaaHM plays out.

His character died and came back as Kathy Bates.

Mr. Television · 10-07-2014, 07:38 PM

Everyone knows Charlie is a winner.

I hope they both come back for the ending...to me it hasn't been the same since Charlie left....

robyrob · 10-13-2014, 11:59 AM

they should bring back Charlie AND Kathy Bates.

ThomasE · 12-03-2014, 06:48 PM

As much as I miss Charlie, it is his own fault. Had he not pulled his antics, he would not been fired. I hold him responsible for the direction of the show. I really liked his character on the series but he screwed up.

king of comedy · 12-03-2014, 11:12 PM

He did it to himself.

cleverfun3000 · 12-04-2014, 06:23 PM

Having been a HUGE fan of "Two and a Half Men", it took me a loooong time to check out "Anger Management". I think it was the fact that 2 1/2 Men had become such pure garbage without Sheen. After all, it was his show. But I have great news, Chalie Sheen fans! Anger Management is every bit as funny as Two and Half Men was during the Charlie years. His entire act, and I mean the ENTIRE ACT has been transferred to Anger Management. It's literally 2 1/2 men WITHOUT the other 1 1/2 men!

AB · 12-05-2014, 04:57 PM

Since the last season of Two and a Half Men is so bad, it might be better if he stays away from it. But then again they could always do the final episode where his departure from the show was all a bad dream.
