The actor is starring in a new sitcom called Anger Management and RadarOnline.com has learned the show has found a home with FX Network.

Interestingly, FX is the same network that currently airs reruns of Charlie’s prior syndicated sitcom, Two and a Half Men.
FX beat out NBC, Fox, ABC, USA Network, A&E, Comedy Central and TV Land to win the rights to Anger Management, which is loosely based off Adam Sandler and Jack Nicholson’s 2003 hit movie.

"I chose Anger Management because, while it might be a big stretch for me to play a guy with serious anger management issues, I think it is a great concept," Charlie said in a statement.
"It also provides me with real ownership in the series, a certain amount of creative control and the chance to be back in business with one of my favorite movie producers of all time, Joe Roth."

~CS is a very likable kind-hearted guy, -trust he will have a production-team which will manage to humorously demonstrate chronic-anger is a destructive force that can be better treated with Nutritional-supplements than Big-pharma's toxic-drugs.

Good, WINNING! Looking forward to watching it. Two and a Half Men has totally gone in the toilet since his unfortunate departure.

Good...now maybe he can STFU about "Men" and if don't think he has serious anger issues he crazier than I thought. Good luck with his show. I will make sure NOT to watch it.

The fact he has anger problems and a healthy self deprecating sense of humor is what is going to make it so funny. Just like Two and a Half Men was a hilarious spoof on Charlie's real life womanizing.
