Two and a Half Men’ Star Calls Show ‘Filth,’ Begs People to Stop Watching

The drama around “Two and a Half Men” didn’t end with Charlie Sheen. In a video published on YouTube today, Angus T. Jones, who plays Jake Harper on the hit CBS sitcom, trashes the show, calling it “filth” and begging people to stop watching.

“Jake from ‘Two and a Half Men’ means nothing,” he says. “He is a non-existent character. If you watch ‘Two and a Half Men,’ please stop watching ‘Two and a Half Men.’ I’m on ‘Two and a Half Men’ and I don’t want to be on it.”

Proof that mods don't read threads.

Thrill-please buy a powerball ticket for me-if it wins I will pay you two dollars.

Is that still going? I might actually buy a few.

Have any of you heard about that kid from Tow and a Half Men? He found God or something and now calls the show "filth." Anyone find a link to this story?

[docellis]

Cole, what the hell are you talking about? Are you making up stories?

[docellis]

Watched the only season of Persons Unknown. I think that show should have gotten a second season. I really, really like it.

Why isn't that kid into heroin and hookers like most child stars? Weird. Charlie Sheen really failed as a role model.

Started watching MI5 (Spooks) on Netflix and can't stop. It's your standard spy TV show, but the writers are the same from Luther. The twists and turns are pretty good.

Christ. Freaking Elmo in a sex scandal.

The accuser has now recanted and admitted it was a consensual relationship between adults, which is what Elmo's puppeteer said it was.

Well good. Like all people from my age cohort I hate how goddamn Elmo took over Sesame Street, but all the same, here's hoping Kevin Clash is allowed to come back to work.

Now Clash quits after a second man comes forward with allegations:

I watched a lot of TV last night, getting caught up on the DVR from the Holliday Weekend.

Homeland-
Carrie sucks. No way a government agency would allow her near any operation. She's a nut job always blowing up and not listening. I'm still entertained and like the show. Hate the charcter, and I'm not sure that's the intent.

[SHOW]

And the big ending, when they were going to kill Brody? Why the double cross? Why would they leave Brody alive if the plan was to kill him, now that his cover is blown?

Dexter- Still don't trust Hannah one bit. And La Guerta's quest, LAME. Been there. Done that.

Boardwalk Empire-
Each episode gets better and better. This week's might have been the best episode of TV I've seen since... Sopranos Finale? Intense...

[SHOW]

Nucky on the run the entire time. With this show's tendancy to kill anyone at anytime, I actually felt nervous he could've got it...
The more Chalky and Richard the better. Can't wait to see what Richard does next episode. I hope he survives. I hope Gillian doesn't.
And Eli coming through w/ Capone, awesome. And Capone's line at the end was superb.
"Been traveling 18 hours. I need a bath, some chow. And then you and me sit down and talk about who dies."
