Shit,
He IS Vince 20 years older.

He's had problems with EVERY major star he's worked with.
He was a staff writer for Roseanne. She had him fired.
Grace Under Fire? She hated everyone, and he was definitely one of them.
Cybill? Hated him. In face, almost killed his career.
Make no mistake...this guy is a douche.
Does that justify Sheen? No...he's a coke head. But it isn't coming out of nowhere.

my point is a stars salary ≠ the price for the commercial spot
its depends on other things like the ratings #s and people want to see/hear Charlie Sheen
that much is obvious; again reiterating my point about Charlie doing this on purpose to make a point to the network and advertisers (he's still gold)
side note donald trump was just on leno also saying some networks going to be paying him more $$ and they're going to get the ratings

Even if WB where to pay Sheen $5 or 6 mil per episode, the studio would still be making money. As the one of the top ratings generators on TV, Two and a Half Men is a giant cash cow. From a post I made in an old thread about TV actor salaries: Quote: |
From the only reason why TV shows are made, not to entertain, but to sell products. A 30 second ad spot on a primetime show goes from anywhere from $150,000 to $300,000, depending on the shows ratings. Product placements in shows & dvd sales also brings in revenue, but by far the #1 revenue generator are the syndication & licensing rights for the show to air in other countries and to other networks for reruns after the show ends.
| http://www.revscene.net/forums/tvs-t...d-t622208.html
Currently Two and a Half Men already has a massive number of syndication deals. The numbers I saw a couple weeks ago, syndicated Two and a Half Men (Weekdays) was the #3 highest rated syndicated show and Two and a Half Men (Weekends) was the #8 slot.
Even after all the recent Sheen rants, advertisers have not been pulling or cancelling their deals with Two and a Half Men, in fact advertisers have been seeking Sheen out directly for endorsements now. Quote:
Charlie Sheen told TMZ ... the reason he's taken up Twitter is simple -- it's a "cash cow."Sheen told us ... his primary motivation behind the new ramblings is that he can score a fortune through advertising. To give this some context, Kim Kardashian is reportedly pulling in $10,000 per tweet.
We pressed him more, and Charlie interrupted by saying, "Mike, I'm unemployed!"
In just 48 hours, Charlie has attracted 1.1 million followers.

^ I've noticed more, not less 2HM reruns on TV in the last couple of weeks too.
I have to wonder if this is part of a brilliant marketing plan on Sheen's part.

I have to wonder if this is part of a brilliant marketing plan on Sheen's part. | Quite possibly, this recent media interview blitz has been great for Sheen, CBS and WB. Just this Monday, re-run of Two and a Half Men won the ratings for the night with 11.627 million viewers, that's likely to put it on track to win this weeks ratings war too, to put it in perspective, Idol had 10 million viewers last week which usually wins out the week, but was only beaten by a special event, the Oscars with 15million. Sheen's 20/20 interview got 9.5 million viewers.
Sheen has already Tweeted pics of himself with the DirectTV logo, Naked Juice and some Chocolate Milk, who knows how much he's already gotten paid from those companies. I've known some actors that gotten $20k just to Tweet about an event or that they love a certain product.

Don't get me wrong I envy the guy for his accomplishments but he is down right delusional and its only a matter of time before he crashes and burns or someone that cares steps in a helps him.

She tried treatment but it didn't work and she started not showing up for work...that lead to her getting fired.
In the case of Charlie Sheen, his contract doesn't have a moral clause in it stating his personal life matters to the show. The show shouldn't have been canceled and he and the rest of the crew deserve to be paid at least.

Also actors have to get insured and what company will want to insure him. | Like I said before Two and a Half Men OWNS the 18-49 year old male segment for advertising. You wanna why? Cuz the way Charlie Sheen is. Advertisers have been having no problems paying the cash for the past 8 years knowing exactly how Charlie is. This isnt some new thing. In fact every time he threatens to kill his wife at the time he makes more money. Every time he is in court he makes more money.
There is an episode of Two and a Half Men where Charlie Harper is almost broke and his brother is freaking out. He just says "dont worry about it... every time this happens something comes up and I'm fine"... A couple minutes later he gets a call from the ex husband of some chick he is banging offering him a whole bunch of money to write childrens songs.
Do you really think the writers thought up that on their own? No... That is exactly what happens with Charlie Sheen.
Go learn something about the dude and then come back here and start commenting. You obviously dont know all that much about his past.
Hell even Donald Trump publicly said that he thinks Charlie will get a whole bunch of money from CBS to stay on. He said "You can be the worst person in the world but if you can get ratings the network will sign you"
ps
Howard Stern got fired by CBS back in the day. He seems to be doing alright for himself.
