Chuck Lorre’s vanity card was pretty epic.
Well…that was strange. Not sure what to make of it. I did like how they lampooned themselves.
Whats was the back story behind the USC Water Polo team? That joke went right over my head.
That was incredibly awful. It must have taken a lot of extra effort to make it that bad. I’m glad Charlie Sheen didn’t appear, that show was beneath him, and he’s pretty damn low.
it was a good wrap because it was awful.
the show went for easy laughs and made fun of themselves for doing it.
i was only a very occasional viewer of the show (what’s the best way to waste this free half hour viewer) and found it funny to poke at itself.
i’ll give it a 0.20 Newhart for a wrap.
15 seconds of Kandi (April Bowlby) made the whole hour worth it. I’d watch 20 years of her doing her Gracie Allen schtick. She had a couple of lines last week on Mom was a Hooters type waitress.
I’ve managed to hold onto it past the sheen exit (and a few jokes about the house being like Charlie Sheen house helped a bit). It wasn’t that bad. I always knew it was a kind of filler show, some funny moments here and there, nothing special…
Rose was always the main driving force in the show. The mother helped a fair bit. The kid was just a filler, but it did lose a little when he went.
However, this season, with the gay marriage for kid, it just got kind of creepy and weird. I mean, I know Alan has always been creepy but the point was to bounce that off Charlie/Walden and the rest. With that, it just lost it. It didn’t even make sense Alan already had a kid (and probably a second)… Then all of a sudden Walden was like Alan…
I might just skip the ten episodes of this season I’ve not watched, watch the finale (because of Rose).
Come to think of it, the presence of Courtney Thorne-Smith probably kept me in for the previous season…
There’s an old Hollywood legend about the actress Clara Bow sleeping with the entire USC football team. So here they’re suggesting that Charlie slept with the entire USC men’s water polo team. They portrayed him as bisexual or even omnisexual (the bit with the goat), although previously the character was exclusively straight.
I liked the thousand-and-one in-jokes.
We watched it and I thought it was a hoot! I loved how it poked fun at itself all the way thru. I loved the various cameos. I thought the animation was a clever way to bring Charlie back. Overall, it was stupid and I laughed a lot. But I’m also glad I quit watching otherwise - Alan and Walden got married?? Then divorced?? Glad I missed that story arc.
The actor that played Jake bad mouthed the show because he found Jesus.
So they bring him back for the finale dressed as…Jesus.
I thought that was funny.
I have watched a few other things in which she has appeared and none of them were nearly as wonderful as her appearances in 2.5 Men.
Her appearances as Kandy was some of the most fabulous TV I’ve ever seen.
IMHO, it is just heart breaking to think that we will never again see her in anything that will come close to that again.
P.S. The finale was really pretty terrible except for Kandy’s appearance.
It was also somewhat satisfying for Chuck to see him get the last word. But it was only satisfying for Chuck. So, I will be erasing this episode from my collection. AAMOF, I will be erasing the entire show from my collection.
So sad.
:smack: That totally went over my head. I was surprised and glad to see the character return, and I felt like Angus was happy to be there.
I was up on a ladder painting, and had the show on but wasn’t really paying attention until I heard Ahhnold’s voice and then I decided, what the heck, this could be worth watching. I thought making it one big piss take was the best thing they could have done and they really pulled it off, IMO.
Has anyone read any comments made by Charlie Sheen after the show? I heard he tweeted something about it before hand. Also, how did you interpret the last bit with the piano falling on Mr. Lorre?
You still have the entire show recorded somewhere?
The only other thing that could be considered funny was Chuck Lorre Productions Vanity Card #491.
I would reproduce it here for you to read but I’ve been told that is against the rules.
Anyway, you might like to find it for yourself and take a look.
The vanity card that I referenced in my above post contained an exchange between Chuck Lorre and Charlie Sheen. At least it was Chuck Lorre’s take on it. You might want to take a look at it for yourself.
I got stopped from editting this by the 5 minute rule.
Anyway, it’s against the rules of this board to reproduce more than just a line or two from another web site. It’s considered a violation of copyrght rules.
I would post a link to it. But the only link I have is to another message board and I figure that would be the same problem or at least a problem to link to a competing message board.
It’s not that hard to link to the vanity card on Chuck Lorre’s website.
OK. Thank you Dewey. I wasn’t sure about thata.
Awesome. Forgive my naivete, but do we know if there is any truth to any of it? I can kind of see parts of that scenario being true but I can also see it just being a final dig at Charlie Sheen.
It seems to me that it’s entirely Chuck Lorre’s take on things. It’s his website so he can post whatever he likes.
It would be a mistake to assume any of it is true. Certainly no one can be certain that Charlie Sheen said anything attributed to him on that web site.
