Charlie Sheen to appear on ABC News' '20/20'

ABC News has taped a TV interview with Two and a Half Men star Charlie Sheen, which will air on a special edition of 20/20 Tuesday at 10 p.m. It is Sheen’s first television interview since CBS and Warner Bros. Television halted production of Two and a Half Men for the rest of the season in light of the shocking interviews Sheen has recently given radio stations and TMZ. Portions of the 20/20 interview will appear on ABC’s Good Morning America on Monday and Tuesday, as well as on other “ABC News platforms.”

    Enough with this guy already, there is no amount of reporting that is going to change the fact that he is an addict in denial and there will continue to be ridiculous statements and outrageous behavior until he gets help, please stop feeding the Charlie Sheen machine and let this guy go away and get some help.

    • Just sayin

      Amen!

    • Andre

      Agreed. So let’s all stop clicking on these links and leaving comments…as you and I did. Don’t watch his story on 20/20 either.

      • Ian

        I won’t miss the 20/20 interview. It’s bound to be hilarious and sad all at once.

      • Anna

        The interview is pre recorded, and will most likely be edited down so we see “Charlie Big Boy” making nice for everyone.

      • CHARLIEfan

        Charlie is the only one making any sense, people who judge him are ignorant asses, to say the least. @Lizzie, dream on, u or anyone else can’t stop what charlie is doing, he planned this media blitz and he’s not done yet, as for the creator of T&HM, sounds like hes got a lot to be accountable for. I’ll be clicking on whatever links I want to and watching the interviews to hear from the horses mouth, not all the ponies out there!

    • Nancy

      Yes!!!!

    • gataroo

      It’s like a car crash. I don’t want to look at it, but at the same time I can’t take my eyes off of it.

      • gigi

        Kinda like Hoarders…

      • K.wag

        He’s what a doctor I once worked for calls a ‘fascinoma’. We’re fascinated with this meltdown, disgusted by how he can rip apart everyone who got him to this level of success, and amused by how much attention he gets. And yet we watch! Sort of like watching a lava lamp — just a slow rise and fall of a blob of goo in a heated environment. It’s entertainment from a distance.

      • jtkopke

        well it is a train wreck, but I am under the impression he is that characture on the show, therefore it is hi boss messing with his life, I like Charlie Sheen,he has done many rolls and I am a fan.

      • Cathy

        You’re both right; I watched Hoarders last night, and that was so wrong! Great comparisons!

    • M.W.P.

      The network entertainment news outlets are hooked on Charlie, like Charlie’s hooked on drugs and sex. They can’t help it. Everybody needs to go into rehab!

      • gato

        Sheen is the drug…Twilight and Gaga buzz is wearing off.

    • Steve B

      Yes Ol’ Charlie needs a healthy dose of Honesty and humility! Come on Charlie. Until he decides enough is enough however their is nothing anyone can do and that is the said part. “Charlie, stop feeding the dark wolf!!”

    • Joe Blow

      Shut up..Charlie Waffles is GOD.

      • pam

        this is all very sad he is a great actor i love him but the drugs are making him a very big jerk and that is being nice. can you say donkey!!!!!!!!!

    • Billy

      Sheen is a bad boy and an addict. Two mutally inclusive things that make a bad mixture for survival. He will die soon if he isn’t taken down, physically, put in a straight jacket, placed in a room with soft walls, medicated properly, allowed to withdraw, and then given intensive psychological therapy for at least 6 consecutive months. However, if he doesn’t want to continue after that, he is doomed to repeat and simply die. His choice after the drugs have left his system and are no longer clouding his judgement cannot be made by no other than himself.

      • Roberta Anderson

        We don’t use straight jackets anymore-psychiatry has come a long way!

      • Sugar

        Straight jacket or not, you are right Billy, he is dying and we are watching – like a train wreck. This is too sad for words.

    • Sharon

      I agree with you. Enough of him!

  • Mandy

    Oh, great! It’s the Hourly Charlie Sheen Update brought to you by Entertainment Weekly!

    • DRG

      At least it is one less story for Lady Ca Ca. If it wasn’t for Lady Ca Ca and Charlie Sheen, EW would not have a reason to exist.

      • A

        Don’t forget Glee and Twilight.

      • erin

        And Bieber.

      • jt

        And Fringe.

      • cici217

        Bieber’s haircut fueled EW for a week

    • PM

      It’s also brought to you by Charlie Doesn’t Know When to Shut Up Productions!

    • Billy

      Lady Ga Ga’s alcohol diet? She’s a drunk and admits it. So what’s new? These people are such overnight millionaires, they can’t handle the wealth and fame. They are burnt candles with no more wick or wax, just no way to exist without substances…

  • kathy

    Is he afraid to do interviews with CBS??? CHICKEN!!! Charlie, please just go away. You and your show have been going down hill a lot lately. No one wants to watch a train wreck.

    • PM

      I guess that Charlie wanted to do the interview on rival network ABC rather than do it on CBS shows 60 Minutes where he would have really ticked off CBS’ brass,Leslie Moonves, Warner Brothers and anybody else.

    • terri

      i would give anything if this was just a publicity stunt to increase ratings.unfortunately we are watching someone self destruct before our eyes and just as in the michael jackson case the world will not be happy til he is dead..then he will be talked about for a day or so and life will go on for everyone..everyone except his poor children and the rest of his family ..they will have to live the nightmare the rest of their lives..everyone needs to pray for him and his family

  • cathy p

    will NOT be watching. this guy is NOT news. he is, however, a grade Z loser. reading the random internet headline is okay, but actually watching? please.

  • Rex

    Not to sound high and mighty, but isn’t ABC sort of enabling his outrageous and destructive behavior? Plus, who other than people who follow the entertainment industry would want to watch this?

    • Amy

      Right on, Rex. They’ll probably have to beep out half the interview. Two and a Half Men has shut down production, so this is how Sheen is getting attention: with his tirades. I never watched his show anyway, though I have a brother who loves it. Count me out. That said, I wish the best of luck to his castmates and the crew. May they find other projects with more stable co-stars in the very near future.

  • Rack

    I won’t be watching; everyone can see he’s an addict who’s out of his mind. Now, its just gone into sad exploitation.

    • amy

      I would beg to differ a bit on the “exploitation” part of it. Charlie called in to those radio shows–he wasn’t hunted down and ambushed for the interviews. And I am sure that it was his idea to do the 20/20 interview. It has been his behavior that’s made this such a public spectacle.
      I have little sympathy for the choices that he makes over and over and over…

  • Zeke

    This is nothing more than ABC trying anything they can to pop a rating for their troubled 9 PM CT timeslot on Tuesdays and they resorted to this jackhole to do just that? What’s he going to say on there he hasn’t stated already and he also is deciding to report for work on Tuesday, when CBS and WB already stated they’re shutting down production. Hey Charlie…the guys with the white coats and nets are coming to get you real soon.

    • Rhoda

      I will feel sorry for the kids if he is around. Go to the light you Vatican w assasins! Warlok on the drug called Charlie Sheen! Take your fire breathing fists and bang all the speedballs you can! He should be licking the writers feet! Armless children~ get yourself fixed because your karma just ran over your dogma.

  • pat

    everyone likes charlie sheen

    • jaffer

      esp. if you want some hookers and coke. he’s good on that.

  • jaffer

    damn it! now i have to cancel or re-prioritize my dvr times for that day.

  • Linda

    I love the show,and want to see more. All of the cast work so well togather. Please keep them.

  • Katie

    Minus 1000 points for ABC. Quit enabling this a-hole.

  • Barry

    Another episode of Detroit 1-8-7 is being postponed for this scumbag’s interview.

  • Player87

    Charlie Sheen is a washed up loser who has not aged well at all. His voice is deeper too more like his old man’s. He really needs his block knocked off. Forget him.

    • lll

      In that ABC interview he certainly looked like he’d been rode hard and put away wet. He’s 40 somthing going on 60 something. He’s got turkey neck!

  • Jim

    Stop knocking Charlie Sheen he’s my hero. Everyone is just jealous he can own everyone of you. He’ll get a new show and it will be top rated too.

    • whatevs

      Charlie Sheen’s your hero? God help you.

    • barb0

      Dear Jim
      This is a very sick man and he owns no one for if that was the case the show would not of been shut down for the season….No help for him no show nexrt season!!!

    • Rhonday

      Yea Jim and BLT when pigs fly and I dont mean the ones Charlie talks to! He was propped up and if being himself was acting…I hope to the youtube video soon. Charlie Sheen dies after being shot up by porn star while smoking a turd.

  • PJL

    And again, ABC pre-empts Detroit 1-8-7. They really want to kill that show. 20/20 sure worked fast.

    • LOL

      ABC sucks for crapping all over Detroit 1-8-7.

      • lokita

        hey, i would scrap that show for an f-18 firebreathing warlock!

      • joy

        He is so pathetic. I feel so sorry for his children. They are all dif ages & going through dif stages of life. Please let him OD & drink himself to death!

      • BLT

        joy…you feel sorry for his kids, but you wish he would die? that would really be a great thing for his kids, right?

        what a load of crap.

      • Andy

        @joy, you are the one who is pathetic, and completely without empathy. What a complete opposite of your name you are. Who are you to judge, and wish someone what you did?
