Consistently funny for years. Especially the classic episodes where Alan married Kandi. Charlie Sheen went and it went downhill as result. I'm watching the current episodes now. Have they sacked all the old scriptwriters as well? It's shocking how poor this is now...put it out of our misery...

I noticed the constant positive references to pot smoking or, as we say in the UK, cannabis use as well. Same deal with Big Bang which is made by the same people. I would have thought that kind of reference would not have gone down well with the republican mindset in the US. It is a bit weird for family viewing.

Alan's character used to be well meaning , uptight, tightwad. That played well against Charlie. He is now written as a pathetic, closeted, unsympathetic loser. Kutchers character lacks charm or style and the whole thing reeks of desperation and everyone involved phoning it in. The scripts now seem like they are written by people who have never watched the show. I keep thinking it will get better....

I binned the "new" Charlie show; anger management, which was weak, safe and repetitive from the off.
