As the Charlie Sheen replacement rumors run rampant, comedy genius Seth MacFarlane has weighed in on who he thinks should take on the recently-fired actor's role on Two and a Half Men. Seth worked with Charlie last year during his guest stint on Family Guy and agrees with Warner Brothers decision to move on without the actor, who has gained notoriety during his whole battle with the creator of the show, Chuck Lorre.

But given the circumstances I do think Warner Bros. made the right choice. It’s hard to say if it can go on without him.”
