‘One and a Half Men’? How Sheen sitcom can go on
March 9, 2011 - 12:32 am
NEW YORK (AP) -- Charlie Sheen is gone, but his sitcom "Two and a Half Men" is likely to stick around.
Although the eight-year-old show is aging and revolved around Sheen's playboy character Charlie Harper, Warner Bros. Television and CBS have every incentive to try to keep it going after producers fired him on Monday.
The show, for one, is a huge moneymaker: It is the most popular comedy on the air, and in syndication. But the more important question might be whether viewers will buy a remade show next fall.
