Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

I would much rather Hugh Grant. I will definitely not be watching:

Ashton Kutcher has officially won.

The former "That 70's Show" and "Punk'd" star has agreed to join "Two and a Half Men" as Charlie Sheen's replacement, The Hollywood Reporter relays. He's putting the final touches on his contract, which will offer him a "huge payday," according to THR.

Rumors around Kutcher's casting began to swirl earlier on Thursday.

Kutcher replaces Sheen, who, after having helped make the show the number one comedy on television, was fired for a long set of rants against the series' creator, Chuck Lorre. He has since gone on to mount a very public life with his porn star girlfriends, continuing to rail against Lorre and CBS in his "Violent Torpedo of Truth" road show. At one point, he said he wanted old friend Rob Lowe to replace him.

On Wednesday, it was revealed that Hugh Grant nearly won the role, but negotiations broke down at the last minute.

Is this serious or just a wacky rumour? Ashton Kutcher can't act and isn't funny so I'll pass if this is true. :down:

Seems like it is a done deal, see updated Hollywood Reporter link below:

SOURCES CONFIRM: Ashton Kutcher Will Join 'Two and a Half Men'

I wonder how they'll write him in....a cousin?

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

This story is likely to elicit more laughs out of me than the actual show.

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

Thought the show was terrible in it's original incarnation, but I would rather watch this version than the hack hamfisted version with Sheen.

Burn!

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

Big WTF news.

Not enough to get me to tune in to CBS. 3 years and counting now.

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

Ugh.

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

Just an opinion

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

Sounds like he is the perfect replacement. Really though a retarded chimp could take Sheen's place it is such a horribly written show.

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

Weird. I can't picture him in the role of Charlie, Which is what I assume he'll be playing.

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

Big swing from Grant to Kutcher -- interesting development. No idea how this will pan out...

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

So, Kutcher has got Charlie's old show, and Emilio's ex-fiance? Dude has it out for that family. Martin better keep an eye out for his 401k.

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

this.

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

terrible show just got more terrible

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

So the show will stay the same

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

It's officially jumped the shark now...RIP

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

Can we start a petition to get that chimp the job instead?

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

They should have Ashton play the same character he played in Dude Where's My Car. Now that would be funny.

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

I'm not sure that Kutcher has the acting chops to handle the sophisticated comedy on the show.

They're going to have to do some fancy writing to explain why Charlie is gone and why Duckie and son have to move in with a previously unmentioned character. Or they'll simply have Duckie say, "Gee thanks for buying Charlie's house and letting me stay!" and immediately back to the erection jokes.

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

Sounds like they've decided to let the show crash and burn. Grant would have given it a chance.

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

Wow it's like Coy and Vance rolled into a Kelso...

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

Sophisticated comedy? Seriously? :lol: I don't think I've ever seen those two words strung together in reference to this show.

Re: Ashton Kutcher: 'Two And A Half Men' Replacement For Charlie Sheen
 

WOW! Why not just end the show now. It's not like this is going to make it better. LOL
