The curtain shot, in which Two and a Half Men stars Charlie Sheen, Jon Cryer and Angus T. Jones “sing” the series’ theme tune “Men men men men, manly men men men” has served as the series’ main title since its launch. Today, CBS and Men producer Warner Bros TV released a new promo photo for the revamped Two and a Half Men with new leading man Ashton Kutcher that features him and co-stars Cryer and Jones in the very same setup. I understand that this was not a shot taken doing the taping of a new main title for the show but just a promo photo shoot — no main title has been filmed yet. This is the second promotional image for the new Men, following last week’s “naked” poster. Production on the show is slated to begin next week for a Sept. 19 premiere. 





It sounds like the kid was a participant to “Extreme Makeover Weight Loss Edition” !
Perhaps he lost weight off season like Sean Murray has over on NCIS :)
How far are they going to take this charade? Sheen said his return is inevitable. This is just another ruse by Chaim.
Asthon looks so out of place, he needs to go back to those Nikon commercials.
That long hair do will NOT work!!! Clean it up!
Yes, Ashton – a shave and a haircut are a MUST. This is Two and a Half MEN – not One and a Half men and Harry Henderson.
Aston should get rid of the long hair & beard. The nicest thing about the previous 2 & a half men was the appearances of the men. They were clean cut & shaven. Charlie Sheen made the show. I think Sheen & the producers should have met in therapy to solve their indifferences. I give the show only 1 year, even if that long to survive. I know I won’t care to watch the show without Charlie. Boo to the revamped 2 & a half men!!!! Charlie Sheen made the whole show. CBS should have given him another chance! They will lose millions with their decision to cancel him from the show.
Send Aston back to Nikon and bring Charlie Sheen back to the show!!!! He deserves it!!!!!
Looking like a moronic wino – nothing out of character for that dope here.
This is going to splat like an egg from a tall chicken.
P.S.
MEMO to Kutcher— this is not a remake of “King Of Kings”.
They should do it like the old ones, but have the kid in Charlie’s position, and in the center, instead of having the younger kid merge into his post-puberty self, have Charlie morph into Ashton.
hahaha you’re a genius
OK, I get it. It’s Christmas In JULY! This is The Biggest Inside Joke
in Hollywood.They won’t dare Tell NIKKI or Anyone on her Staff. There Milking this for All it’s Worth.
You’ll See. The Fact is Charlie & Ashton are very Tight. We have All
been PUNKED!
Lol.Cheers,

This just does not look right. Charlie and Jon were a far better fit. Ashton and Jon are two completely different age groups and life experiences to be a good duo together.
Notice how Ashton is now wearing the red bow tie and standing in the middle? Angus is wearing the red bow tie and standing in the middle of the old photo. It appears that Ashton is now officially the “Half Man”, and Angus is replacing Charlie.
my thought and was going to be my comment as well. The 1/2 man has grown up and is now one of the men, and Ashton is now the 1/2 which sets a good premise and tons of story lines.
I’m pretty sure the idea of the title has always been that the Sheen character was the “half man” of the three guys.
Half man = Half Brother of Alan?
What’s Timberlake doing there?
Why are they even bothering with this lame set-up? The most this show can hope for it a couple more years with ho-hum ratings – if they are very lucky.
Charlie was the draw.
Nah… watching a man’s slow demise on tv….Charlie is what kept me away.
At least, now there will be actual acting involved in the Charlie character slot. Ashton can offer a bunch of different ways to be funny with each scene.
Charlie can offer a one dimensional version of himself…over and over again.
And you’re suggesting that Ashton Kutcher can be more than one-dimensional?
Bwwwwwaaaaaahaaahahahahhahahahahahahhhaaaaa…
My curiosity is peaked. I will tune in to watch. I hope the writing staff works overtime to ensure that the ratings are sky high. I despise Charlie Sheen and I want to see that SOB eat humble pie. Although this type of casting change to an established series rarely works out for the long haul, a few come to mind such as MASH, Cheers and Bewitched that seemed to continue successfully for years after the replacement of a principal cast member.
So much hatred against Kutcher!
I never really liked Charlie in the series because of same old thing in every episode. Should be interesting what Kutcher plays.
This pic is so ridiculous and pathetic. LMAO. I won’t watch a second of this. They should had brought Charlie back or just kill the show.
worst photo ever.
Charlie! Asthon! Come on people…get a life…get off the couch…out of the room and live life!
the worst show on the planet. So unfunny. Its garbage.will it redeem itself.
Why does Kutcher look barely older than the kid?
It`ll be interesting. Will the very many built-in couch commandos reach for their remotes? Stay tuned……..or not.
Who designed this horrible promo pic? Charlie Sheen? Replacing Sheen with Kutcher was a brilliant move! Kutcher’s a very goodlooking young guy with a gift for self-deprecating humor and charm to spare. His “new” look (ratty long hair, scraggly beard and mustache, unbecoming smirk) is an instant turnoff, a harbinger of rock-bottom ratings and quick cancellation. Advice to Ashton: call your agent immediately. This sinking ship has sunk. You deserve your own TV show! And Charlie, please get help before it’s too late. As Bill Maher recently remarked, today’s Charlie Sheen is not the nice guy he used to know, and the only certain thing looming in your future is a body bag.
Looks like Kutcher is obviously going to play a childish mid 20s-ish character in the vein of Kelso or a fictional version of himself.
Am i the only one who thinks that Hugh Grant would have been better than Ashton Kutcher on this show? At least Hugh Grant, can manage acting like Charlie Sheen, but Ashton Kutcher just isn’t that good :/
The guy in the middle, is that Bruce Willis’ son?
No..it is Bruce’s EX WIFE’S Current husband. BUT they all do play together!!!!!!
What is wrong with all of you? Do you not see that Jon Crior is the true talent, and always has been. He was the funniest part of that show to begin with….Charlie Sheen played a great straight man….but it’s Crior who has the true comedic talent. This show is going to do just fine as long as they come up with a good “character” for Ashton Kutcher. Can’t believe that anyone ever thought that Charlie Sheen was the “star” of Two and a Half Men!!!
I guess Kutcher will be the long lost son of Charlie who takes over while Charlie is getting… into rehab… ugh… this just simply cannot work. First episode will be chartbreaking… second episode will not be seen by anyone but the producers… third episode… what third episode?
This are just some of the stupidest comments I’ve ever seen anywhere on the internet.
Nothing upsets Middle America baby boomers more than a man bucking the clean-cut look they fantasize enforced on all American men until the end of time.
