Ashton Kutcher's "Two and a Half Men" Contract is For Only 1 YearPosted: May 23rd, 2011 by WorstPreviews.com Staff
|
  After an extensive search for Charlie Sheen's replacement on "Two and a Half Men," CBS eventually decided to cast Ashton Kutcher. Now comes word that the actor has only been signed for one year.
The problem is that CBS has licensed the show for only one additional year. If the network decides to renew it for a second year, Kutcher will once again have to negotiate his deal, likely getting even more. On the other hand, the network could simply cancel the show or re-cast Kutcher.
Sources claim that CBS is only looking to extend "Two and a Half Men" for two or three more years before calling quits for good. By bringing Kutcher at $750,000 per episode ($20 million per season), the network is saving money. Since Sheen was also a producer on the show, he was earning a whopping $2 million per episode. But whether fans will tune into a Sheen-less "Two and a Half Men" is yet to be seen.

This is good news. Not only does it means that "Two and a half men" will end after this season, it will also be the definite nail in the coffin of Kutcher's career.

Whoever sais Ashton was funny hope it bombs so the show could just end.
Both Johny Deeps paycheck and now Kutchers are the reason Americas hitting the sh*tter,where that money could be used elsewhere to help others.

If the show bombs, then CBS wouldn't lose lots of money because Ashton Kutcher is in the show for only 1 year.
CBS would cancel the show and put a new show on the channel myabe a comic book show.

Like him or not (not in my case as well) it's a smart move. If the show does well with him, he can resign and get more money as stated. If the show bombs, he gets his $20 million and says thanks for the year.
I have never seen a full episode of this show. I only caught the tail end of it on FX before Archer came on so I tried to watch an episode once and I still no idea how this show is so highly rated.

I'm with Phurby how he is gonna replace Charlie Sheen without being Charlie Sheens character? Not that I would ever watch it any way.

This show died long before Charlie derailed.
It went completely off it's successful message of he being a drunken, womanizer to he chasing and getting p*ssy whipped by Mia and then Chelsey. Then his confusion over Rose.
I'll watch the first show (maybe) with Kutcher just to see how they're fitting him into the show. I'd be happy if it's better than ever... but have NO expectations.

@mink - you didn't. He never was, is... and it's very unlikely will be.
I think he's punk'd Chuck Lorre out of $20mil.

They did it to themselves by insisting that the show must go on.

Yep.
I found 2.5 Men during that writer's strike. Became what I'd call a pretty hard-core fan of the show. And being such a fan, lost major interest when it went off message. Off it's 'situation' within the comedy that made it a success. I'm all for change, but not from the very core that exploited Charlie Harper's womanizing to we seeing his domestication.
Yeah... it's been pretty Lohan for the past couple of seasons (although a funny part was Chelsea's gay dad and lover - played by: Stacy Keach and John Amos... fricken hilarious!).

She too wanted to train Charlie.
She wanted a commitment from him but no sex.

Wonder if Ashton will do something creepy ... like having Demi defecate on his face, while he's lying straddled, tied to the bedpost ... while he's watching himself trying to mug through an episode Two Fags and a Kid Who Can Afford A Stripper.

Jon Cryer won't have to worry about being physically abused by his wife anymore ... three months into Ashton's contract, Jon's gonna try to digest a metal salad and wind up shooting off a bit of his jaw like Jack from Fight Club.

Fair enough. Jon Cryer looks like the bastard son of d*ck Clark in that photo.

I honestly can't see how this can continue successfully. The first show with Kutcher will be highly watched I think, but then drop off from there. Personally, I quit watching it because I don't find the kid funny anymore. Could be just me.
