Two and a Half Men Show Info


Two and a Half men is a dramedy about men, women, sex, dating, divorce, terrible mothers, sibling relationships, and of course love. Charlie Harper is a rich bachelor with a beachside residence and a flair with the ladies. But his perfect life is interrupted by his uptight brother and his son, Jake, who move in with him. If this wasn't enough, the brothers' mom, Evelyn, a narcissistic and absolutely toxic woman decides to spend more time with her boys. Also part of the fray are Alan's ex-wife Judith and slightly crazy next-door neighbhor Rose, who is obsessed with Charlie. Despite such a complicated new life, Charlie, Alan, and Jake make a nice family unit that promises to make each of them better men with a lot of laughs along the way.

The show first aired on CBS in September of 2003. Shortly thereafter, the show garnered much critical acclaim and has since become the number one comedy in the U.S.

Trivia:

When Jenna Elfman was on the show as the "Crazy Hot Chick" the car she destroyed had the license plate number 2GAT123. This SAME number appears throughout Hollywood history. Crazy/Beautiful, Traffic, Pay it Forward, Beverly Hills Cop, and Mullholland Dr.

Chuck Lorre (creator of the show) actually wrote the Theme song. What a talented guy!

The show won the People's Choice award in 2003 and the youngest cast member Angus Jones accepted the award on behalf of the show.

My personal favorite trivia piece: The refridgerator in the kitchen ACTUALLY works. This is incredibly rare on tv shows apparently.
