Posted on Aug 02, 2011 @ 09:43AM
Looks like Two and a Half Men’s creator/executive producer Chuck Lorre is getting the last laugh.
The ninth season of Two and a Half Men will begin with a funeral for Sheen's fast-living character, Charlie Harper.
The first episode will include all of Harper's ex-girlfriends returning for his funeral, Deadline.com reported. Another plot twist will be how Harper's survivors, played by Jon Cryer and Angus T. Young, will attempt to sell his Malibu beach house.

It's not yet known how Sheen's replacement, Ashton Kutcher, will be written into the CBS comedy.
Both cast and audience members in attendance for tapings have been asked to sign non-disclosure agreements for the top-secret plot. Certain scenes will be shot separately as well, the website reported.

The show's eighth season was abruptly shut down during Sheen's public fallout with Lorre in February.
The episode will air on CBS September 19; Comedy Central will air its' Charlie Sheen roast that same night.
This won’t be the first time that a successful sit-com has killed off a lead character in a dispute.

In 1986, Valerie Harper’s character in the comedy Valerie’s Family was famously killed off in a car accident when she disagreed with producers over the direction of the show, which featured a young Jason Bateman. Harper was replaced by Sandy Duncan.

Chuck Lorre is a complete and utter idiot and will be laughing alone as no one is going to watch this stupid show without Charlie Sheen. Charlie Sheen made you allot of money you moron and you should be grateful!

The real funeral will be the demise of the show. The actors will be able to thank cry baby Chuck Lorre for his tantrum.

Just cause Charlie is being killed off dosen't mean he can't come back, they can always say he faked his death and ran off with Rose. If the ratings get low enough and if Sheen's new show flops, the producers will likely have to bring Sheen back.

Sorry Chuck, but there's no way Kutcher can carry this show, i've got nothing against Ash, but I just can't see him fitting into the show without it being akward.

Give the guy a break. It takes a damn good actor to play someone who is dumb as he did on the 70's show.. Look at Chrissy Snow on Three's Company. She's a successful business woman. I, for one, will be watching.

You are as big of an idiot as Chuck Lorre, hey why don't we make you a t-shirt called big fat idiot?

HAHA! That's hilarious! I hope they go through with it.

Can't wait to see the re-tooled show. Maybe it will last and maybe it won't but I'm glad Charlie is no longer on the show. I would NOT have watched it if Charlie came back.
