TUESDAY UPDATE: Just one problem when late night TV tries to exploit Charlie Sheen for ratings: he’s a loose cannon. (Like, duh.) Turns out the Jimmy Kimmel show cut Charlie’s last line when he said, “That whore Sarah Silverman left this at my house” and slammed a toothbrush on Jimmy’s desk. I’m told Kimmel “felt it was insulting” to his ex-girlfriend. (Like, duh).
Monday Midnight: There’s no stopping media’s newest phenom what with all the TV moguls talking to him about network gigs new and old. (Let’s just hope he doesn’t meet the same fate as Howard Beale…) So it’s somewhat fitting that Charlie Sheen made a “surprise” appearance on ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! tonight during an interview with Mark Cuban. The musical guest, Brett Dennen, just tweeted the album cover Charlie signed and gave to a member of the audience. Jay Leno no doubt is losing his mind about missing this “winning” opportunity…
Editor-in-Chief Nikki Finke - tip her here.

Great. Good for him. I like the Howard Beale analogy. Charly might just be the crazy prophet.
I want Two and a Half Grams, I mean Men to continue…
Ugh. Why does Kimmel get to have a show?
Crazy Charlie will soon have lucrative offers from every network including CBS they and Warner Bros. will wind up giving him a big raise to return for two more years of Men he’ll end up getting 2.5 million per episode which just goes to show what hypocrites they are.
The problem is Crazy Charlie will always be labeled crazy from here on out. What “serious” actor wants to be tagged crazy? Look at Gary Busey….look where he’s at….that’s Charlie 3 years from now.
bad example, busey is still, as he always was, a c-celebrity.
Don’t be ignorant – Busey is a joke now but at one time he was an Academy Award nominated Best Actor and full of talent – drugs and psychiatric problems took it away. Your comment was a C.
Leno has missed WAY more opportunities than this.
Gotta live the fact that Leno didn’t get him….but it shouldn’t be any surprise to Jay because 90% of Hollywood HATES Leno and he knows it. He only gets guests that are told to get on tv to pitch their upcoming project.
And Kimmel is pretty funny…that Tom Hanks sketch on the Academy Awards after show was one of the funniest things on a late night show in years…Leno just isn’t funny, and his interview style is lacks any intellect or humor.
Never let facts get in the way of your rants! 90%? You so funny.
What’s this 90% hate Leno crap? It’s ok for you to hate him, but don’t project it onto 90% of Hollywood—99% of which you don’t know.
You can say what you want about Leno, but he’s the king of viral clips.
You can’t keep the man off of YouTube!
90% sounds way low. closer to 95%. Don’t let the Drudge heads claim otherwise
Charlie is just awesome.
I don’t know what the heck Kimmel is doing on Tv. My God, have we all lost our minds?
Kimmel’s actually doing the best, funniest front 20 minutes in late night, Ferguson sometimes excepted. Watch and see.
The fact that we enable and reward this type of behavior just makes me sad.
I am so sick of Charlie Sheen – 2 and a half men was a funny show, I give you that – but his part could have been done by any suitably humorous actor. Now, his off-set crazy lifestyle (drugs, porn stars, etc.) was a great thing for his publicity, so I applaud him for that (brought in more ratings) – but now I think he is just being an overexposed douchebag a la Lindsay Lohan. Maybe if he’d taken more of a Conan O’Brien approach I wouldn’t mind so much – but people are talking like he’s a damn prophet! I can’t help but think if the media was portraying him more truthfully (douchebag) people wouldn’t be on his herpes laden bandwagon of idiocy.
THAT’S what Live Nation should have named the tour:
“Charlie’s Herpes-laden Bandwagon of Idiocy” coming to a city near you!
dont be so envious Kenny. charlie IS a prophet. soon you will obey to him.
Agree
The beauty of Hollywood is that it is pure: there is absolutely no integrity at all. In Charlie’s case you can beat women, threaten to decapitate the mother of your children, spout anti-semitic comments, bang prostitutes and do boatloads of illicit drugs and somehow you’re a hero and network execs stand in line to blow you and offer you buckets of money. Charlie fried his brains on drugs. What’s everybody else’s excuse?
Too much tigerblood!
I actually stumbled on this last night. Charlie was moving at such a fast pace. He literally never stopped moving.
He may be off drugs, but he looks bad and his behavior is still quite manic.
In any case, I hope he sells lots of his T-Shirts.
Charlie is different than Lohan or Busey in that he is embracing this “CRAZY” persona, rather than denying it or being angered by it or having the press be the one to throw this label on him (instead of him throwing it on himself, which he’s done). Charlie’s created all this, so perhaps he isn’t as crazy as he wants us to think he is.
Are you Nutty??? Aside from Letterman, Kimmel is the best thing that happened to late nite TV!! LENO sucks & he’s a big BABY!!! “Wahhh, I want my job back, Wahhh I don’t care who I hurt….Wahhh, Wahhh, Wahhh!!! Leno go home to all your cars….your ratings have fallen & you’re just NOT THAT GREAT!!! (fir the record
Ooops… My above comment should also say: FOR (not fir) the record I also think Craig Ferguson is pretty Damn funny!!!! Never really liked Leno B4 his big “wah-wah” moment, now just like him even less!! Kimmel is great!!!!
The fact that we enable and reward this type of behavior just makes me sad. -rusty
That’s Hollywood for you. How else do you think people with bankrupt morals would behave? The people who produce what you watch on television and the big screen aren’t really that different from Charlie Sheen.
The problem is Crazy Charlie will always be labeled crazy from here on out. What “serious” actor wants to be tagged crazy? Look at Gary Busey….look where he’s at….that’s Charlie 3 years from now.-Chicago48
One can only hope.
Give it a rest, genius.
Hollywood is just like every other community in America. Some folks are talented, generous and smart. Some are horrible parasites with no redeeming value to society. So get off your high horse, grow some balls, and do something productive with your phony outrage.
The same can be said for you. Let’s keep things respectful here.
This should be Charlie’s new career he can crash every talk show on the air a different one every day. Martha Stewart, Rachel Ray, The View, The Talk, Oprah, Ellen, then the morning shows followed by the nightly cable news shows. He’ll do this same bit on Letterman if not tonight then later this week. Where will he pop up next? That’s the beauty of this you’ll never know where.
If he crashes my show then I will kill that no good Gelman for arranging it. Don’t do it Gelman that no good Charlie will give me another heart attack. I’m too old and too rich for his insanity.
Oh Kenny, you are a Good man.
It’s interesting to see the audience to go nuts over Sheen.
Through all his madness, he’s got America behind him. I bet he will be back on 2.5 Men by the end of the week. Les Moonves doesn’t want to miss the boat.
P.S. I hope Jimmy Kimmel gets a shot for STDs. You never know what disease he got from that kiss.
America is behind him? Are you kidding me? They are behind him in that he is crazy and people find crazy people funny. They are not “behind him”.
People are behind him in the same way a crowd yells, “jump! Jump!” to a person on the ledge of a building.
Aren’t his fifteen minutes up?
When did Charlie Sheen turn into Richard Lewis?
Charlie needs a babysitter.
I hope Kimmel enjoys herpes.
A little herpes with the winning is the price you pay, I guess.
Wow. Sheen is even more delusional than he appears to be if he thinks this is anything other than the desperation of an incoherent drug abuser earnestly trying (and failing) to prove that he has the faintest fucking idea what he’s doing.
You gotta love that even in his altered, wacko state Charlie is still able to have the sense to steer clear of Leno – drugs, hookers, assault, that’s OK, but Leno could harm his image in Hollywood
Cage match — Charlie Sheen and Chris Brown. Cheer for them both to lose.
