My Uncle Charlie was a huge success in the United States when it aired on CBS from 2003 to 2015. Originally, by John Cryer, Angus T. Backed by Jones and Charlie Sheen, the sitcom suffered an earthquake at the end of Season 8 when the latter publicly insulted Chuck Lorre, one of the creators.
Charlie Sheen vs. Chuck Lorre
After this scandal, the actor, known for his attitude and often inappropriate behavior, was fired and then replaced by Ashton Kutcher. A man and a half (the name of the comic in the original version) then underwent a kind of reboot and lasted for 12 seasons.
It’s water under the bridge today and some people are wondering if my Uncle Charlie could be reborn from his ashes… this is also a question asked by one of the talk show hosts, Alice Farrah Griffin. viewwho immediately asked his guest Jon Cryer (on the February 9, 2024 show) if it would be possible to bring the series back…
Frankly, Alan’s translator replied:I don’t see how that would be possible. Charlie is doing much better today and that’s great. We haven’t spoken in a few years, but he’s doing much better and I’m obviously happy about that.“
“I don’t know if I’ll work with him.”
“The hardest thing for Chuck Lorre was how everything fell apart because he really thought he was friends with Charlie.Jon Cryer recalled. It was very difficult for him to lose that. But they reconciled and it’s wonderful.“
“As far as I’m concerned, when the show was still on, Charlie was probably the highest paid actor on television and probably in the history of television. And no one has yet surpassed the huge amount of money he was making back then“- remarked the actor.
“However, he messed everything up. So I tell myself that I love him, I wish him the best, and I hope he lives a healthy life, but I don’t know if I will work with him.John Cryer concluded.
Humorously, the host revived it and proposed a solution that the entire cast would receive the same fees as the stars of Friends in the past. Then the main stakeholder agreed in the same tone and said: “That seems fair to me!“.
Alas, this will probably never go further than this joke…
