Chiropractor and single father Alan Harper lives in a beachfront house with divorced Internet billionaire Walden Schmidt, who bought the house following the untimely death of Alan's brother, Charlie. As they acclimate to their living arrangement, the tightly wound Alan finds himself taking on a mentor role with Walden, whose lifelong dependence on being taken care of has left him a bit naive. Despite his unsuccessful romantic history, Alan also tries to help Walden overcome his limited experiences with dating. Berta, a sharp-tongued, unapologetic housekeeper, is also featured in the series.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Ashton Kutcher proves to be a game replacement for the unceremoniously departed Charlie Sheen, but Two and a Half Men feels exhausted and bitter as it trudges beyond its natural lifespan.

Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times 09/12/2018
Kutcher brings a softness as well as a sense of rude health to a series that could often be brittle and sour, misanthropic and misogynistic, and temperamentally middle-aged. His presence might allow Cryer to play some sweeter, less strident notes. Go to Full Review Hillary Busis Entertainment Weekly 09/11/2018
Maybe Two and a Half Men has simply lost its luster in the wake of Sheen-gate. Its departed star cast a huge, tiger-blood-shaped shadow - which is probably why the show is determined to keep airing plots that revolve around the absent Charlie.

I realized that Ashton Kutcher is actually too good for this material. Then I splashed some cold water on my face, but the thought was still there. Go to Full Review Courtney Enlow Pajiba 06/23/2020

A cringe-worthy attempt at Chuck Lorre trying to satisfy a childish need to have the final word in one of television's most public feuds. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Neil H @Bushington Jan 31 Shouldn’t have tried to carry on.. See more Johnny H @RT07995177 05/03/2025 Was always set for failure with the sacking of Sheen. Regardless of what his antics done off set, the show was never gonna progress without him. The plot made sense living in his brothers house after a divorce. But living with a stranger who buys his dead brothers house like it's somehow normal makes no sense. Ashton Kutcher actually wasn't bad the role and plot didn't make sense and the attempts at callbacks to Charlie and memories should of been enough of a hint See more 12/19/2021 It's a shame. Ever since Charlie lost his mind with Foodfight, as well as encountered alcohol/drug problems, Two and a half men never was the same. What made Two and a Half Men so good was the sarcastic/crude humor that Charlie Sheen gave. That humor would blend beautifully with Alan's moral backbone and wimpy demeanor. Opposites attract, and Walden was not an opposite. Walden ruined the show in my opinion, he didn't have any sarcastic overtone and witty remarks like Charlie Sheen. Thus, nothing could blend. Sure, the character didn't have to be Ren Hoek (voiced by Billy West) but he needed to be sarcastic enough so the show wouldn't feel empty. See more 02/14/2021 Two and a Half Stars, es lo más que puedo darle, el momento en el que muere Charlie, es el momento en el que la serie dejó de funcionar, la serie debió terminar cuando muere Charlie, querer extenderla fue un grabe error See more FRANCO R @RT88863810 12/28/2020 Not the same without Sheen See more 07/17/2020 Horrible show when Ashton Kutcher takes over.
