Charlie Sheen's Been A Very Bad Boy?

It's all over the news right lately: Charlie Sheen taking things a bit too far with drugs and porn stars and then... going public with his jagged disdain of some of the producers of his #1 hit show on CBS.

Next, all the analysts and pundits throwing out the word "troubled" and "erratic" etc. (like they actually give a damn when they most certainly don't).

That said... I think it's safe to say he's doesn't care all that much about continuing with the show (but does want to get paid for the remaining 4 shows on his contract).

It's also safe to say everyone knew who & what he was when he got the gig; it's not like he's doing anything much different than he's done before?

It must be quite a conundrum for the show's producers: All that money they'll lose with the early retirement of a proven goldmine vs. continuing to allow the star to work them over in public. Money talks in this world, ESPECIALLY in Hollywood, and it sounds like the guy is always a pro on the set, so it's kind of a delicious situation. One thing's for sure though: He's not your typical, boring, "everything's great and I love everyone" kind of TV personality - and I, for one, find that at least as entertaining as anything he's done in TV or film.
