Ashton Kutcher replaces Sheen.

[Fire1]

That sucks. I just hope they don't try to replace the "charlie" character with Kutcher. It will drop like a stone. Didn't see this anywhere, so if it's a dupe, please accept my apologies.

1. Will they rename the show "Two Men"? nt

[dkf]

3. Lol. Sounds about right.

4. Article didn't say. Should be interesting. n/t

2. Oh darn. I thought you meant he became a drug addict and had some whores living with him. nt

5. well this is a pretty good indication of how well Ashton's movie career has been going.

[truebrit71]

7. ..a better indication of the direction of Sheen's career more likely...

..I mean how bad do you have to suck for Ashton Kutcher to be a BETTER choice than you??? :rofl:

[Fire1]

9. I agree and hope they just take his character out of the script. n/t

[truebrit71]

6. Interesting...so long Charlie you mucking foron!!

8. Y'know, just eliminate the character altogether. The kid's the show

and what's-his-name is a perfect foil because he isn't stupid.

10. Apparently Kutcher will play a NEW character that comes into the household

At least if you "buy" what TMZ is saying...
"Ashton will NOT be playing the Charlie Harper character. He'll be playing someone new, who comes into the "Men" Malibu house."

11. WINNING!

[Blue-Jay]

12. Will he be assuming the role of Cousin Oliver?

13. I don't look for any kind of success with this move. IMO, after 8 seasons,

most sitcoms have run their course. Changing characters probably won't do the show any good.

[Fire1]

15. Great observation. I'm thinking the same thing. n/t

[hlthe2b]

17. Plus, the "kid" is no longer a kid...

I love the Mother and housekeeper, though. They alone make the show, IMO.

16. What makes the show are the very talented writers who

could dream up some really funny situations by playing off the characters' strengths and weaknesses. The actors are only as good as the words put in their mouths. Maybe they can get a decent performance out of Ashton Kutcher. The Charlie character was the weakest one in the show and won't be missed any way.

18. Aside from the fact that I can't stand Kutcher he just won't work

in the dynamic.

Charlie was the show.

[brettdale]

19. I think it may work

It worked for Demi, why not a sitcom.
