    My guess is he's trying to go the Sheen route?

    Isn't he making something like $300K an episode? That won't last much longer.

    "I'll take 14:59 for $200, Alex."

    I have never seen Two and Half Men, but based on what I read here, and elsewhere, the show is pretty filthy.

    Didn't it have a running storyline about buying the kid hookers to lose his virginity?

    If the same video had been produced by the Scientology church, his parents would have kidnapped him by now and taken him to a deprogrammer.

    The show is all kinds of filth. Probably the filthiest show ever on network TV. In the story, the kid was about 16 when they put him in the role of maybe having a three-way.

    As for the statement, I don't know if he is going the Kirk Cameron conversion route, but it does sound like he is yet another actor who has had enough of working with Chuck Lorre. That list would include just about every actor who has ever worked with Chuck Lorre.

    In his defense, it is filth. More so than any other network show I've ever seen.

    I actually think "Two Broke Girls" is worse.

    This is the show that made a gag out of a main character being murdered, and that wasn't even surprising.

    Still, that kid has basically been along for the ride for years and made a hell of a lot of money from that "filth."

    All I know of that show is when Moddy mentioned the two references to anal within the first five minutes one week. Yeah, that was pretty bad. 2 1/2 would at least go for a euphemism or work around it a little bit.

    $350,000 an episode ... not bad work if you can get it ... :)
