CBS Subs 'Mike & Molly' for 'Two and a Half Men,' Will Ferrell is Not the New 'Office' Boss and More

CBS is enacting its first Charlie Sheen contingency plan: The network ordered two more episodes each of 'Mike & Molly' and 'Rules of Engagement' to help deal with any issues arising from the 'Two and a Half Men' star's absence, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Sheen began rehab this weekend after being hospitalized in the wake of a reportedly very wild party with some porn stars at his home. 'Two and a Half Men' went on immediate hiatus. THR reports that Sheen will be unable to work for three months while he undergoes treatment.
