TV Exec's Pumped About Sheen Escapades

103110sheen.jpg While most people are getting caught up in all of the negative aspects surrounding actor Charlie Sheen's coke-fueled frothing escapade, like sullying the good name of the Eloise Suite, there are a few stalwart Sheen fans who have found the silver lining in the incident. That would include CBS, who think that the high profile hooker-and-drugs binge may boost ratings of Sheen's hit show, Two and a Half Man. "They're quietly thrilled. They think it will open up the show to a whole new segment of young viewers, the 17-to-23 crowd. They feel like it's millions in free publicity," a network insider told the Post. Nothing gets the 17-23 crowd going like having a cocaine-encrusted face!

But Sheen's father, actor Martin Sheen, isn't seeing things with the same rose-colored glasses: he is reportedly considering organizing a family intervention to try to get the troubled actor off booze, drugs and prostitutes. Maybe someone should consider staging an intervention for Sheen's one-night paramour, jack-of-all-sex-trades Capri Anderson. Because once you've been stiffed on the bill after a wild romp with Charlie Sheen, AND featured in a Girls Gone Wild national commercial, it's hard to sink much lower.

    what is confusing to me, is who exactly thinks Charlie Sheen is remotely attractive?

    How is he gets to portray a womanizer when he looks, dresses and acts the way he does in that show?! Absurd!

    He is disgusting looking both physically and the way he dresses...Really don't get this show popularity or this man horrible fake fake character. Perhaps that is why he's so pissed at his own existence!
