Two and a Half Men Season 12

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

Walden Schmidt and Alan Harper (Ashton Kutcher and Jon Cryer) have spent another year searching for the ideal life in their Malibu beach house. In the 12th and final season, Alan and Walden will continue their search for true love, contentment and the meaning of life. And they may actually find a couple of those things!

Two and a Half Men has been excellent for eleven seasons, then the writers took the show in a totally new direction – a ridiculous, boring and wrong direction. It’s as if the writers were new to the show and had never seen any of the previous seasons – they appear to have no idea what the show or the characters are about. The show is suddenly about coping with adoption, making Alan look dumber than ever, making sweet Lyndsey look like a sideshow freak and poor Walden look like a 10 year old kid that can’t cope with his life. I could go on and on about how badly they screwed up this show – but you get the idea. If you were teaching a course on sitcoms, Season 12 would be a great example of how not to write, produce or direct.

The show died when Charlie Harper “died,” but I bought the entire set so I’d have a Two and a half Men collection. I realize that the ending was ridiculous, but having written for TV in the eighties (and having taught script writing on campus most of my adult life), I probably would have ended the show in a similar way. Charlie Sheen had bounced off the wall so badly, Ashton Kutcher made such a mess of the Walden character, Jon Cryer ended up doing dumbed-down slapstick (when he’s so much more capable) . . . . where do you go from there? You end the show just like the writers did. You make it absurd. I absolutely loved the inside jokes, and how the entire cast delivered one-liners and then looked right at the camera. I watch seasons one through four most of the time (didn’t like the Chelsea episodes), and do watch the two final episodes for a good laugh. Worth it just for those two shows and to complete a collection.

Twelve seasons. When a show runs 12 seasons with major cast changes, such as M*A*S*H did, it’s clearly worth watching. When Henry Blake left and Sherman Potter took over there was an adjustment. Thus the case when Charlie Harper left and was replaced by Walden Schmidt. Again when Jake left and Jenny showed up. All 12 seasons of “Two And A Half Men” are fun and worth seeing. Perhaps take a break between seasons 8 and 9.
Ashton Kutcher’s fantastic and can’t be compared to Charlie Sheen. The two characters are so very different. Season one the half man was young Jake. Season 9 the half man is Walden, a billionaire peter pan who’s wife threw him out because she wanted a husband, not a child. As walden matures, with the odd help from Alan (Jon Cryer) who becomes lazier and spongier with every episode, in comes Charlie’s surprise daughter, a bright, boozing lesbian and we still have-though thinly and cheaply- two and a half men.
The final season maintains the hilarity, the stakes continue to get higher and a new half man named Lewis. Alan continues to become more of a dork but maintains his loyalty to Walden, Berta is still ever present as is Holland Taylor and once or twice a season Rose returns with brilliance that parallels the first season and the stakes getvhigher and higher until the brilliant but simple finale.
It’s worth it. So very worth it.
