Just read that his publicist quit.

But Charlie couldn't abide him quitting, so he then fired the publicist. Like Donald Trump does . . . . . .

Never watched the show - it has a laugh track, right? (I don't watch shows with laugh-tracks becuase it just ruins the show for me).


Maybe Chuck can get a reality show with Randy Quaid?

Police remove Sheen's twin boys from his home

LOS ANGELES — Actor Charlie Sheen told NBC News that police removed his twin boys from his Los Angeles mansion Tuesday night.

"This is not the America I grew up in," he told NBC News.

RadarOnline.com reported a judge ordered the twins, Bob and Max, who turn 2 this month, removed because they must be returned to their mother, Brooke Mueller, who filed for divorce from Sheen in February.

The "Two and a Half Men" star has said he wants full custody of the twins.

"My fangs are dripping tiger blood," Sheen told RadarOnline.com.

On his new Twitter account, Sheen tweeted late Tuesday: "My sons' are fine... My path is now clear... Defeat is not an option..!"

Mueller, 33, earlier Tuesday reportedly won a restraining order to keep Sheen 100 yards away from her.

Details were sketchy about what prompted the emergency court order, which was first reported by TMZ.

Mueller and Sheen were set to be officially divorced in May.

A Los Angeles judge reportedly did not address a custody issue Mueller raised in court, on a day Sheen told an interviewer his two live-in girlfriends helped take care of the kids.

In reacting to news of the restraining order, Sheen used a term from "Star Wars." He told TMZ he was "already planning on staying 100 parsecs away" from Mueller.

The twins were removed on the same day Sheen started a Twitter account and gained thousands followers.

Earlier Tuesday, CBS Chief Executive Leslie Moonves described the future of "Two and a Half Men" as uncertain while Sheen spoke of a drug-free life with two "goddess" girlfriends at his home dubbed Sober Valley Lodge.

Moonves, interviewed at an investors' conference Tuesday in San Francisco, said he hoped TV's top-rated comedy would return to CBS, adding, "We'll see."

Sheen's personal woes and public tirades against producers of "Two and a Half Men" reduced the show's season, but Moonves said CBS isn't suffering financially in the short term because paying for fewer episodes than planned of the expensive sitcom is "financially a gainer."

"Going down the road ... I don't know what's going to happen," he said, then took a poke at Sheen's ongoing media tour. "He's on the air quite a bit these days. I wish he would have worked this hard to promote himself for an Emmy." Sheen has been nominated four times for lead actor in a comedy series for "Men," but has never won.

Meanwhile, Sheen, 45, was a guest on Howard Stern's radio show Tuesday, discussing his career as a Hollywood playboy, after a return to NBC's "Today." The actor kept up his aggressive public relations campaign against the network, producer Warner Bros. Television and critics of his style.

Asked on "Today" about reaction to previous comments in which he called himself "a total rock star from Mars," among other startling descriptions, Sheen shrugged off the reaction.

"I am grandiose because I live a grandiose life. I'm tired of being 'aw shucks.' That's not me. ... What's wrong with that?" he said.

Sheen had high praise for the two women living with him whom he calls "goddesses."

"These women don't judge me. ... They don't lead with opinion. They don't lead with their own needs all the time," he said.

Asked if the pair help care for his children, who include nearly 2-year-old twins with Brooke Mueller, Sheen replied, "Oh, yeah. If I can't be there, they're there, and it's like everybody helps out. ... There's nothing broken here."

Sheen asserted he isn't using drugs, saying "drug tests don't lie" and presenting recent test results with "the word 'negative' is, like, printed, like, 18 trillion times."

"Don't remember, don't care," he said when asked the last time he'd used drugs.

He has rejected attempts by his family, including father Martin Sheen ("The West Wing," "Apocalypse Now") to intervene in his life and told them, "'I appreciate your love and your, and your compassion, if that's what you want to call it.'

Sounds to me that this guy is in self destruct mode.

Oh how I HATE laugh tracks. Annoying, distracting... do they think the show is not funny enough...or that people will only laugh when the hear others laugh...or if the audience hears laughter they will think..."Oh! This must be a funny show!"

It IS a funny show much of the time. The mother is my favorite character...

Column about Charlie Sheen from today's Tribune...

I just watched an episode of 2 1/2 men. And I realized that he is Charlie Harper. And we as a society have thought it funny and made him a star and wealty on this bad boy behavior. I now look at the show with new eyes. It truly is him, he is not acting. We laughed and thought he was hip and cool and sexy and now when he acts in real life the way he does on TV we all of a sudden don't think it's so funny anymore. Why were we not disgusted with this shallow, man wh*&e before? Why did we laugh as he went through women like paper towels, discarding after one use?
