    That is more than he makes for making original Episodes.
    I cannot think he is paid that insanely. . . . but i could be wrong

    Bob Sagat has over $100 million because of syndication. I imagine The Sheen has as much or more.

    Publicity stunt.

    Sheen will be back and the show will get twice the ratings.

    He gets a cut of each episode aired anywhere and everywhere. When tallied all up it totals $3 million.

    I agree -- Sheen and 2.5 men hasn't been getting nearly enough publicity lately.

    If the show does not continue, the biggest loser is the crew.

    Maybe for Charlie, but not for the show.

    It was already a ratings champion, so it is hard to see a clear cause/effect there.

    I guess you're right.

    However, coming from someone who has never watched a full episode of 2.5 Men, I wouldn't miss Sheen's return to the show for all the 7 gram rocks in the world.

    Nobody is going to watch that show with Sheen out of the picture. You think anybody gives a **** about Cryer or the fat kid who now looks like Bieber? John Stamos going to jump in and save it? Yeah right.

    The Sheen will come out of this smelling like roses.


    WIN-NING.

    People need to hop off Charlie Sheen.

    The guy is just living his life.

    So what he is/has done drugs who cares.

    He isn't stealing, killing, or committing real crimes.


    Society is such a joke.

    Charlie Sheen waves machete on rooftop: 'Free at last!'

    [​IMG]

    Good morning! Ann Oldenburg here, back from a long weekend in Pensacola, Fla., where I was checking out Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville Hotel, now that it's nearly a year after the Gulf oil spill. Thanks to Mardi Gras festivities, there were plenty of people wastin' away. More on that in our Hotel Check-in blog tomorrow. ...

    Meanwhile, Charlie Sheen continues to provide daily drama. ...

    Last night, he delivered another episode of his Sheen's Korner and was eerily antsy and disheveled. ...

    Also yesterday, after Warner Bros. fired him, Sheen and goddess Natalie Kenley went to a meeting at Live Nation in Beverly Hills. After the meeting Sheen climbed to the top of the building, whipped out a machete and started waving it around. He then pretended to drink from a bottle of Tiger Blood as a small crowd gathered below cheered him on.

    Sheen, when asked how he felt about being fired from Two and a Half Men by Warner Bros. replied: "Free at last, free at last!"

    Soon after learning the news, Sheen told Access Hollywood's Billy Bush that his former bosses at Warner Bros. Television never called him about the firing.

    "I got a text or something. Here's another thing — these guys are such yellow cockroaches that they didn't even have the decency to call me. I put 5 bill[ion] in their cheap suit pockets and another half a bil' in what's-his-cheese's pockets and this is the… respect I get?" Sheen told Bush. "It's just deplorable and they should be ashamed of themselves!"

    He added, "It is what it is. I'm more worried about my children [Bob and Max] right now than any of this nonsense, you know."

    (See Sheen's opinion on the phrase 'It is what it is' in the first installment of his Sheen's Korner webcast.)

    Sheen confirmed to Bush that he plans to move forward with legal action against his bosses for breach of contract. "If this is what it had to come to, to get me out of those silly shirts, then so be it. So maybe I'll wear one, just on the final day when I go and remove all of their bazillions."
