Report: 'Two and a Half Men' Will Resume Filming Within A Month With Charlie Sheen

By Rebecca Macatee Posted Feb 1st 2011 05:47PM

If you're worried about getting your fix of booze-loving Uncle Charlie on 'Two and a Half Men,' you might not have to wait that much longer. TMZ reports that Charlie Sheen will return to the set in 3-4 weeks.

Producers plan to make up the episodes not being filmed while Charlie's completing his stay-at-home rehab. E! Online reported that the show's crew members were "furious" with Charlie for addictions halting the show's production, explaining, "A lot of us do not get paid, if we don't work. So if he's off getting rehab or porn-o-ing or whatever, we're screwed."

Now sources connected to the show tell TMZ that while nothing is set in stone, the addiction specialist has said Charlie could be back to work next month. If that happens, producers would make up the two missed shows at the end of the production season. This would mean no one loses any money, the crew gets paid and the show would be right back on track.

Since Charlie has reportedly refused to go to rehab, a sober coach is coming to his multi-million dollar Los Angeles mansion. "He is at home now and those close to him are trying to get him to enter a facility," a source said. "But he doesn't think he has a problem."

The 45-year-old has been encouraged by his family, his ex-wife Denise Richards and his employers at CBS to seek treatment after his alleged 36-hour cocaine-fueled bender with five porn stars last week. See PopEater editors sound off on Charlie's latest fiasco:

CBS is being shockingly irresponsible in this matter. They should shut down production until Sheen enters proper rehab.

CBS is very wrong. They are setting a bad example. This whole mess is in the name of profit. The show should shut down or run without Mr. Sheen. By shooting the shoot they are supporting his child like behavior. Mr. Sheen should be off the show and receive no money. His contract should be canceled.

I think they should film that crappy show round the clock until Sheen drops- he is a helpless hopeless addict- I think no Rehab around will help him see what every other person can see- give him enough coke- porn whatever and work his sorry but until his heart or kidneys give out- that is how it will end anyway

The show is undeniably awful, but it's still not worth killing somebody over ratings.

If he won't sober up for his kids, there's no hope for him. He is a selfish, immature idiot. And he plays a selfish, immature idiot on TV and everybody loves him--or so he thinks.

He is 45 years old and he has, what, four kids? Time to be a man. There's more to life than working and having a good time.

CBS thinks his show is the only show that makes money.

CBS, in its greed, is enabling Charlie Sheen. Sheen, never a great actor, was the luckiest guy on earth to end up with t his gig. With his endless drug binges, whoring, and trashing of hotels, has thrown away his career. If CBS had any integrity, it'd pull the plug on Charlie's role and hire a new actor. No reason that the other, hard-working actors and staff should pay the price for Sheen squandering his career. I hope CBS does the right thing. Time to move on.

Sober Coach for hire...

Isn't this sounding like that doctor Michael Jackson used?

If the Network won't vacate Charlie Sheen, (who needs to focus on staying alive)

Maybe viewers should abandon any advertisers who choose that show to display their wares.

time to start identifying all industry professionals who continue to push and represent and sign on drug-dazed talent who are walking the gang plank of death. ....

This to encourage everyone to be responsible when handling such stars who have as much ability to save themselves as a helpless babe.

LOL coping/pasting uncoordinating info is all you got PE? I love how E! is actually acting like they know anything when all they got is that hooker's words.
All this is gossip especially the coke where there would be evidence, pics etc. I do think he needs to sober up but if he wants to do it at home what is everyone's PROBLEM?? This is probably the best with gossip hounds trying to dig for every detail. And why is it a hooker who admits doing coke and taking money is NOT arrested? um Charlie's not the only one who cops go easy on I guess porn gals too unless it never happened.

They should change the name of the show from Two and a Half Men to Men Behaving Badly! Honestly why would CBS allow an immature, self-indulgent, inconsiderate pig have his own program simple, because we watch it!
