It's always been on the racy side but amazingly enough it rarely veered into utter vulgarity until Charlie Sheen left or was forced out.

The maid is hilarious and so is the mother. Too bad they didn't take the opportunity to give them a little more air time.

Ashton Kutcher was a ridiculous choice for a “replacement” character, he added nothing and adds nothing. Charlie Sheen came across as himself, for better or worse, and was believable in the role. It was almost autobiographical, or it was plausible to think it was. Kutcher is not believable in the role, can't act, isn't funny and the stupid shines right through, so he's ultimately being himself because he just can't help it.

The part that Ashton Kutcher is playing is just ridiculous. As I understand it, he’s playing the part of a successful internet mogul, who is a billionaire.

Why would a billionaire share accommodations?

Aside from the rude and crude, it would have been far better to play the part of a guy who lost his job and started up an internet company. There is far more comedy potential from somebody who is struggling, then somebody who is wildly successful.

I agree. The wise cracking maid and the mother were the funniest characters on the show. I rather enjoyed the show when Charlie Sheen was on it, haven’t really watched it much since – not so funny anymore. But is it a family friendly show? No. Is it something I’d want my five year old niece to watch? No. Do I always want to watch family friendly or shows only appropriate for my great grandmother or for a five year old? No!

When my grandmother used to come to visit, we’d have to watch the Lawrence Welk Show and Highway to Heaven – talk about cruel and unusual punishment. LOL!

Nobody is forcing anyone who finds offensive to watch it.

I also very much like the Big Bang Theory BTW.
