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?

They impose genocide on us and deny us free speech to oppose it.
The Obama years taught me:Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white.
I don't wish Sheen any ill will or anything like that. I am just totally disgusted with anyone, him included, who blatantly uses illegal substances and gets away with it and even shows up in public evidencing proof of what he's been up to, and he's never served prison time like the guy next door in my neighborhood would in the same situation.
Again, not that I'm wishing Sheen were in prison, I'm just wishing people in this country of mine would wake up and stop with the Me, Me, Me attitude, the "I'll do whatever I want to, whenever I want to" message that continually gets trumpeted with no legitimate, persuasive arguments to the contrary whatsoever.
I thought Sheen's 'performances" during that meltdown were embarrassing and shameful. What a waste. He is a good actor and, believe it or not, I actually love the ads he's doing for that "Anger Management" program. I like it when people laugh at themselves. But I just don't like the overall messaging that Sheen and other high-profile people send out to the rest of us that going around breaking laws and acting like horses patoots is really neat and, Hey, come join us for ...

Right. Aren't any for them, that's for sure.\
But, alas, Sheen and the rest of Hollywood are fulfilling a purpose. They have a job to do, and that is to entertain the rest of us. And he does a good job, far as I am concerned. I just wish he'd clean up his act, stop breaking the law and messing with illegal substances, and maybe even attempt to undo some of the harm his glorification of his lifestyle has undoubtedly done to lots of star-struck youths.
Meanwhile, I'll watch "Anger Management" and hope I can get into the character Sheen is supposed to be playing and hope he does a good job. But if he screws up one more time, that'll be the last time I bother watching him. As he says, this is his 24th chance. (I like the humor behind that.) So he's run out of freebies. LOL
The PROBLEM is that WHAT they say rarely survives beyond the moment that they say it..
Can it happen??
LOOK at Robert Downey Jr.. It seems to work occasionally.. ALL we can do for Sheen is HOPE..
