    I've heard about this on the radio during my drive into work, but fortunately none of the news programs I watch talk about it.

    I've never seen the show and I don't have much of an opinion about Charlie Sheen or any of them, except a) who knows what the truth is, b) his costars should have seen the writing on the wall some time ago, and c) the producers should have had a back up plan so they didn't have to deep-six themselves just to get back at him.

    Too much drama. I'm going back to politics (HAHA!)

    The best thing the media could do for him would be to ignore him...this way he doesn't have an audience for his acting out.
    I do enjoy the show...it can be witty! But, I'm sure that Charlie is in a terrible tailspin and doesn't even know it...
    He needs to be committed by his family....because this is going to kill him if he is left to his own decisions.

    Can't believe the show has been on for so many years, it was a one joke show that got boring very quickly. What a shame that he has wasted so much of his life. May in Jersey

    Living in SoCal, it's even worse! Local "news" can't get enough of stars' antics. Thankfully, I live far away from LA proper, and only watch the LA "local" news for weather! Personally, I never liked the show and couldn't figure out why it's been on so long, but I feel sorry for the rest of the people involved - but unfortunately, that's show biz these days.

    I totally agree with everyone. The show was cute the first year and went downhill quickly...like much of regular TV just not appropriate for viewing. Thank goodness my kids are grown and I don't have to police TV like I hear some of my younger friends discuss. We watch sports, Cooking Channel, HGTV, sports, history, sports and that is about it....lol. It is mostly for background noise.

    I'm of the opinion that the public doesn't care, it's the media people that care. I wish they would understand that "we" don't. If people want to self-destruct that's there business as long as it's not putting a minor or the public in danger or they being supported by the government.

    I have been so SICK of him and his show for years. The only thing of interest to the writer's is sex. Where is a little intelligence once in a while. My DH watches the show. I usually leave the room.
