Just when too much Charlie Sheen is not enough… now Nine are giving us more.
Not only can we see the sex addict five times a week for half an hour but now Nine are screening Two and A Half Men more often than the news.
Monday’s 7-8PM (two episodes)
Tuesday’s 7-7:30 PM and 7:30-8:30PM (three episodes)
Wednesday’s 7-8:30PM (three episodes)
Thursday’s 7-7:30PM (one episode)
Friday 7-7:30PM (one episode)
That makes 10 episodes a week and only seven nightly news bulletins!
But it is working as Two and A Half Men is very competitive and occasionally beating Home and Away (Seven) and the Wednesday hour from 7:30-8:30 has been Nine’s most popular show of the week.
Strange isn’t it that this sit-com couldn’t rate for Nine in it’s first six seasons until the network took a gamble and scheduled the comedy for the 7pm slot, weeknights over summer and the show has survived ever since.
It’s genuinely funny and I for one have been converted to Charlie Sheen’s dead pan humour.
Let’s just hope Nine have learnt their lesson from ‘over-exposing’ too many products and shows. Gordon Ramsay appears to have all ready been killed off after being a star at the start of this year seeing two new instalments of Hell’s Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares axed after only one episode – after the Olympics and where is the millionaire, Eddie McGuire?
Sheen and Two and A Half Men have grown from strength to strength – if only Nine could get Sheen to read the news or A Current Affair, they might be winning the ratings.
