You know, I'm honestly not surprised...

Charlie Sheen may be returning to "Two and a Half Men".

On one hand, he's got some problems. Among them are a lack of income.

On the other hand, it's a damned popular sitcom, and I think that if this happens, there's going to be a lot of swallowing of pride all around. Of course, CBS isn't saying shit, so this return might be a complete fabrication on the part of Sheen.

I'm sure I heard about this a few weeks back, almost as a done deal. Can't recall where, possibly bart_calender

Yeah, the show is making CBS a metric assload of cash, so I can't see them not trying to salvage it, even if Sheen is acting like a total jackass.

Lack of income? Show's been on like eight years and at the end he was making like 2 mil an episode, not to mention his prolific career prior.

I mean I realize coke and hookers are expensive but is he really having money problems? Crazy.

Assuming he's not doing anything special to reduce his tax rate, it's going to break down something along the lines of:

10% agent
35-45% taxes [estimated] (local, state, federal)

Still leaves around a mil an episode and 20-something episodes a season gives you a lot of cash to throw around. But I bet it could easily be done in Holly-weird.
