What a journey Two and a Half Men has taken over the course of its 12-year run. After becoming one of the biggest and most divisive shows on TV—with its lightning-rod star Charlie Sheen at the center—the series devolved into a PR nightmare and then reinvented itself in a surprisingly spry reboot, only to devolve once again into something that many would argue should have ended a couple of years ago (and yet was still one of 30 highest-rated shows on all of television last season). I've never been a big fan of Two and a Half Men, but I've always appreciated its ability to attract a big audience, and to ultimately mutate and adapt in ways that barely make sense. Though Chuck Lorre doesn't seem like a particularly chill bro, you can't knock the hustle, or the zeal with which he seems to enjoy producing a very particular brand of comedy. With that in mind, I sat down to watch Two and a Half Men's series finale assuming that basically anything could happen. Maybe the episode would see Sheen make his much-anticipated return to the show and there'd be some heartfelt reunion with Jon Cryer and the rest of the cast. Maybe Sheen would return and fight Lorre for 18 minutes while the studio audience egged them on. Maybe Sheen and Angus T. Jones would sit down for a live interview with Alex Jones about tiger's blood, UFOs, and the Trilateral Commission while Ashton Kutcher checked Twitter on his phone. Seriously, anything seemed possible.

I enjoyed watching this and it was sad when Charlie Sheen left the show.Ashton Kutcher does an amazing job with picking up the parts.

Nice winter binge-watching very funny shows with both Charlie and Ashton

I stuck it out to the end. This show used to be hilarious but quickly got extremely rude and crude, even when Charlie Sheen was still in it. It's like it mirrored his life. I like Jon Cryer and watched it for him, even tho it got more and more gross and crude. But I wanted to see how it all played out and am now thankful that they have finally killed the goose. Still, it was worth watching for a few years. The final season? I don't know. But I am glad to see how it ended.

This was a great buy for the season DVD set! I purchased it for a gift for a Two and Half Men show fan and they were thrilled with it. Perfect gift for a difficult person to shop for.
