CBS chief hasn’t closed doors with Charlie Sheen
“Two and a Half Men” producers remain uncertain on sitcom’s future
CBS Chief Executive Leslie Moonves sounded like he is open to reconciliation with “The Two and a Half Men” actor, Charlie Sheen when he said sitcom’s future is ‘uncertain’.
When interviewed at an investor’s conference in San Francisco, Moonves had even expressed his hopes that the US top-rated comedy show would be back on air to CBS and said, according to the Associated Press: “We’ll see”.
Could this be an indication that despite Charlie’s visibility on almost all radio and television programs in the US have not really prompted the show’s producers to close its doors on Charlie?
"Going down the road ... I don't know what's going to happen," Moonves was quoted as saying at the conference by AP.
According to CBS, Sheen’s personal attacks and public tirades against the producers have resulted in reduction of the show’s season.
This however, maintained by CBS, has not really put a financial dent of the network, explaining that CBS is not ‘suffering financially in the short term’. Moonves explained at the conference said AP, that ‘paying for fewer episodes than planned of the expensive sitcom is financially a gainer’.
