No more Mr. Nice Guy for Charlie Sheen - the actor has attacked his Two And A Half Men replacement Ashton Kutcher.

The actor wished Kutcher well when the Just Married star was hired to join the cast of the sitcom after producers fired Sheen last spring (11), but it appears all that goodwill has changed.

Calling in to internet news show TMZ Live on Thursday (16Feb12), Sheen explained he was tired of playing nice.

He said, "I'm tired of lying... I'm tired of pretending the show doesn't suck... I'm tired of pretending Ashton doesn't suck.

"It's nothing personal... I just feel bad for him... He's saddled with such bad writing."

The outburst comes just days after Warner Bros. lawyers representing the show's producers insisted Sheen cease using an old Two and a Half Men photo to promote his new comedy Anger Management.

This show has always sucked. It's a reflection of the poor taste of Americans, or at least those with Neilsen boxes.

Charlie Sheen is so self destructive, I just wish he'd get the job done right and be done with.

When Sheen left, the producers should have dumped the show, it does not work changing characters in any TV show or movie that has had a well known actor in a particular leading role, look what they did to Get Carter. Alfie and the Italian job, I am sure many people would agree, let sleeping dogs lie.

what about The Fugitive, the Brady Bunch, the Addams Family, the Untoucheables, and countless other remakes or Movie versions of films that made a ton of money, and many receiving positive reviews, such as the Italian Job. However, I don't any of that matters to the producers of the 2 1/2 men show, I think all they care about are ratings, and the show has a better demographic with kutcher

One of the first rules of comedy is that the situation has to be even remotely feasible. It was with Charlie Sheen's role but sadly become diabolical with Ashton Kutcher. I feel sorry for Jon Cryer whose brilliant acting is now being reduced to little more than slapstick. He should get out before getting permanently associated with this turkey.

I find the new show over the top in sexual content. It is filled with dialogue featuring every private part and all body habits and functions, often relying on shock value instead witty writing.

I loved the old show and still do watch the new one, but I often find it juvenile and feel there is room for improvement. Ashtons' character is not as consistent as Charlies'. He goes from very childish to being the adult in the room.

Ashton has huge likability and is very talented and funny, but Charlies' deadpan humor and timing for me has always been exceptionally top notch and appealing in both TV and movies.

Has always been over the top even when Charlie was there.

The show is poor now because they've taken away the sharp, edgy dark character that was Charlie and replaced it with Jakes older, dumber brother. It seriously needs to pick itself up. I have watched all the episodes with Ashton Kutcher (who is a fine actor, loved the Butterfly Effect) but you only realise the extent of the slide when you watch re-runs with Charlie Sheen. In real life he'sloopy,but he made the show.

i agree with dinahduck since charlie left the show jon cryers's character has turned into more of a freeloader and even more pahtetic. jake the older and only son was the half in two and a half men. he is grown up the show should of ended when charlie left. there was nothing else to do with it.

now the writers decide to put in ashton to act as a man who never grew up and is loaded and needs to get naked all the time. once ok but then it's boring. why not just let it go and put alan out of his misery.

a good show gone to the dogs. charlie sheen was no agel but he had comic timing lacked by rest of cast unlike bertha

2 and a Half Men is just a run of the mill sitcom since Charlie Sheen left and I would be very surprised if it lasts much longer.The show was brilliant when he was in it and now that the format has changed it is nothing. Even the main characters have changed their personalities. Time to call it a day.

Charlie you need to be told - Two and a half men sucked as a show and so did you - so no change there then.
12:57 PM on 02/17/2012
You blew it Charlie get over it and of course we know Ashton isn't you but you held everyone, fans co actors workers etc. to ransom with your childish spoilt brat attitude.

Kutcher may well be the most one dimensional actor in LaLa Land.

His comments sound like alot of sour grapes, he had his chance and blew it, or should I say snorted it!
10:14 AM on 02/17/2012
I'm not a Charlie fan but he is 100% right here. The show should have been retired as it was running it's course anyway but Kutcher absolutely stinks on this show. We no longer watch it.

Prefer it to continue as honestly there ain't many good shows out there right now that you can count on one hand,

Like we needed Charlie Sheen to tell us how terrible the show has become!
