In a statement, the studio said, "After careful consideration, Warner Bros. Television has terminated Charlie Sheen's services on "Two and a Half Men" effective immediately." The move comes after several weeks of public battles between Sheen, Warner Bros., CBS and Chuck Lorre, the show's executive producer and co-creator. Production on the show was stopped so Sheen could go into rehab. Sheen did his rehab at home, wanted to go back to work and then started bashing Warner Bros., Lorre and CBS for not letting him resume his duties. Sheen also went on a media rampage, appearing on NBC, ABC, CNN and even Howard Stern. He retained Hollywood lawyer Marty Singer, who threatened to sue Warner Bros. if Sheen was not paid for the rest of his contract, which runs through next season. Warner Bros. did not say if it would try to keep the show going without Sheen.
