It's going to be pretty tough for audiences to distance Charlie Sheen's 2011 meltdown from his new series, "Anger Management," but he's going to have to try. The studio's got a lot of money riding on that show. So Sheen is doing a little bit of damage control by getting candid about what he calls a "psychotic break." Watch the video below for some classic excuses.
Sheen told Playboy, "I started to unravel. I finally just said things I had always been thinking. But in the middle of a psychotic break ... It was surreal. And it never occurred to me where this was going to end up or how it was going to be perceived ... How do you go from making Oliver Stone movies to being in a feud with warlocks?" Do you think Sheen's embarrassment over his meltdown is genuine -- or is he just looking for press?

charlie has been "genuine" many times. At least to him it is. Keep him off of drugs and alcohol for a year and we'll see if he can speak.

This even includes 'wanting press' and this is something where he has grown up in a world where that IS an actual routine part of his life, identity, business.
In a real way I can't blame him for anything. He grew up a 'Hollywood Royal' and could not possibly have had a chance to be 'normal'. He thinks sleeping with two porn stars is 'good' and cocaine is a 'work tool' and t-shirts with your catchphrases are worthwhile and so on.
Then again, his brother Emilio would have grown up the same way with the same skewed strange life. And Emilio seems (as far as I can tell) to be a very normal guy, a nice man and seems very polite.
He has a new show coming out that, considering all, will probably be the last thing he does and I'm sure he's not the only one that wants it to be a huge success. He has to win back those who won't even tune in out of morbid curiosity, so publicly making amends and admitting wrongs is a good way to do that.
