‘Two and a Half Men’ is an American television sitcom that originally aired on CBS for twelve seasons from September 22, 2003, to February 19, 2015, and starred Charlie Sheen, Jon Cryer, and Angus T. Jones in the lead roles. Now, in an interview, Jon Cryer spoke on his relationship with co-star Charlie.
Talking to PeopleTV’s Couch Surfing host Lola Ogunnaike, Jon Cryer aka Alan Harper said, “Charlie and I really hit it off. We had a great first few years on that show, it was incredibly smooth, we had a lovely time, it was working really well.”
Further, talking on Charlie Sheen’s divorce with Denise Richards, he said, “At first he could handle it, and he was still incredibly professional — and still lovely, by the way, to everybody on set — but you could just see that stuff was wearing on him.”
Cryer also called the experience of working on the show “crazy.” He said, “It was one of the first internet s—storms, plus there’s the fact that all of our jobs are tied into this guy, and we’re all his friends. It was very, very strange and [there were] aspects of it that I absolutely hated, but you know, I’m thankful for the years that were great.”
For the unversed, Charlie Sheen was fired from his top-rated comedy “Two and A Half Men” because of his “dangerously self-destructive conduct,” difficulty at work and inflammatory comments to producers, TV executives said. Later, the show ultimately brought in Ashton Kutcher to replace Sheen in its final four seasons, starting in season 9.
