Troubled 'Two and a Half Men' star Charlie Sheen gave an interview on 'Today' (weekdays, 7AM ET on NBC), arguing that CBS had no right to put the sitcom on hiatus, that show co-creator Chuck Lorre is guilty "dictatorial laziness," and that a relapse isn't even a remote possibility.When asked if CBS had just cause to end the sitcom's production early this season, Sheen replied, "No, because ... they observed a guy hitting every mark, nailing every line, every joke with a full house, screaming."
Then, the actor reads several prepared questions to Lorre, in which he accuses him of "dictatorial laziness" and taking steps to sabotage the show.
In terms of a relapse, Sheen seems to argue that such a thing isn't even possible. "I just won't do it," he said. "I will not believe that if I do something, then I have to follow a certain path because it was written ... for normal people, people that aren't special, people that don't have tiger blood and Adonis DNA," adding that those who have relapsed are "fools" and "trolls."
