Charlie Sheen will not be resuming his roll as playboy jingle writer Charlie Harper on the hit CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men. The 45-year-old actor, who has been on a media bender since being on a forced hiatus from set, has been officially terminated by Warner Bros. Television. And Charlie has already responded in his unique Charlie-speak.
"After careful consideration, Warner Bros. Television has terminated Charlie Sheen’s services on Two and a Half Men effective immediately," the company said in a statement via The Wrap.

It remains unknown whether someone will replace Charlie or if the show will end production all together. As of now, reruns have been receiving high ratings.
“Going down the road… I don’t know what’s going to happen,” CBS president Les Moonves recently said in a statement about the fate of the hit sitcom last week. “I hope it’s back. We’ll see.”

Charlie will not be silenced, responding to TMZ:
"This is very good news. They continue to be in breach, like so many whales. It is a big day of gladness at the Sober Valley Lodge because now I can take all of their bazillions, never have to look at whatshisc**k again and I never have to put on those silly shirts for as long as this warlock exists in the terrestrial dimension."
