Is Charlie Sheen ok?

From the last few weeks we have heard a plethora of stories about Charlie Sheen. There were stories about his being hooked on drugs , his romps with hookers and his wild behavior.His producers wanted to suspend him from Two and a Half Men'.
 Then there were his frantic appearances on any and every television show that would have him .Charlie became the favourite target of Tonight show host Jay Leno, who would take every chance to poke fun of Charlie in his monologue.
I took it all with a pinch of salt. I thought the stories were all exaggerated and things would settle down soon. I thought it funny that Charlie was acting just like his character on the small screen. But now things have taken a turn for the worse.
Charlie was fired from his show 'Two and a Half Men' on Monday. Now there are allegations that he may may be losing his mind. Looking at him rant and rave on television certainly made me worried .They say that Charlie may go back to drugs and there is the genuine danger that he might be suicidal. One thing is clear Charlie needs help.
Money, fame and success have not bought Charlie happiness. He appears to be a tormented man with delusions of his own grandeur and infallibility. He seems out of touch with reality.I feel so sorry for Charlie. He needs help and he needs it now.

Charlie Sheen Fired

I was shocked to hear that Charlie Sheen has been fired by Warner Bros Television from his hugely  successful show " Two and a Half Men" I am an ardent fan of the comedy and cant imagine the show without Charlie.

For quite some time Charlie has been in the news with stories about his drug and alcohol related problems. He got into trouble with the producers who claim that "Two and a Half Men" was a family show and that Charlie's lifestyle was upsetting the viewers. They said that the advertisers were threatening to pull out of the show.

But Charlie character in the show is that of a lovable womanising -drinking- cigar smoking rascal and the audience just love him.in that role So it beats me, why any one should object if Charlie real life persona is the mirror image of his character in the show.

I don't care what Charlie does in his personal life. In fact, for me  his current lifestyle reinforces the image every one has of Charlie and just makes his character more believable. I would be quite surprised and a wee bit disappointed if it turned out that Charlie was a teetotaler and a saint. All this controversy just adds to my enjoyment of what has been a hugely successful and enjoyable show.

I always thought that the trouble would blow over and Charlie would be back on the show stronger than ever. I am still hoping that sanity prevails and somehow the dispute is resolved because I just cant imagine my favourite show without Charlie.
