Maybe it's me but i think that this was the best episode of season 9 so far

OK, i was surprised by the low score when i saw it on IMDb. Ashton's character is not that funny but in the end of this episode he came over as a nice person. And this episode was some times very funny especially in the cinema and in the bar. The kiss from Walden and Alan hahaha i laughed very hard. Predictable but it was funny. I understand that a lot of people don't like the masturbate jokes and i find it disappointing that Jake stands offside in a couple of episodes so far. But there doing their best and it's hard to replace such a powerful character as Charlie. I miss him as well but i'm trying to like the new season. To be honest, season 8 was horrible most of the time. Especially the last 3 episodes (14,15,16). So give it a try. I hope the writer brings a more cynical character in it. That's gonna make it better. Charlie Harper R.I.P.

An actually enjoyable episode!

This episode is the best of the season so far. I'm surprised by its low rating here. It took what made the previous episode half-good and made it good in its own right. Felt a lot closer to classic Two and a Half Men (not quite there, but almost!). I'm happy they brought in Charlie's therapist (a personal favourite character of mine) and the scene with her and Walden, where they essentially crack open his psychology was very entertaining to me. When they bring the girls home was also quite entertaining. Alan is great here and his dynamic with Walden works very well and I hope this standard is kept up for a while.

How long can last this disaster?

Ah ah! As usual the first posts are very supportive (who knows who actually writes them!). On the opposite tonight I did one of the mistakes of my TV life : I did not keep the promise of not watching 2.5 men again to not destroy what I remember about the ex most funny show I ever watched. I don't even know where to start so let's start from before watching. I was thinking that Kutcher is nice, funny and handsome so if he was there from the beginning at the place of Sheen and today the situation was inverted we liked him even more than Sheen. First mistake, Kutcher does not work. After - guilty for this disaster are: James Widdoes who is the weaker director among the ones who directed this show, C.Lorre who obviously does not have anymore fantasy, John Cryer thinks this is his opportunity and push too much his acting.... The show it self is old. The magic moment is over, the engine is broken, les jeux sont faits et rien ne va plus. Angus T Jones (Jake) delivers a good performance but his character has been reduced as today he is no more fat and smiling as he was in the first 5 seasons, he is no more funny and can't go on farting and that's it as Alan can't hope to make us laughing insisting on joke as the peanut butter on his testicles.....2.5 man has been rated 7.5 by IMDb watchers in the past, this season gets an average of 6.1 not forgetting that it started with a 6.8 and tonight its rating is 5.4 The first episode has been watched by 28 M people, last week 16M. what else? On IMDb is written: Two and a Half Men - TV series - 2003 /? In my opinion it should be written: Two and a Half Men - TV series - 2003 / ASAP.
