Kathy Bates already took over a role written for a man once when she was cast as the lead on David E. Kelley’s NBC dramedy Harry’s Law. Now she will portray the ghost of a man on another series. The Oscar winner is set to guest star on the CBS comedy Two And A Half Men, playing the ghost of former star Charlie Sheen’s character Charlie Harper. In an episode slated to air April 30, Alan (Jon Cryer) suffers a minor heart attack, and the ghost of his brother Charlie (Bates) will pay a visit to his hospital bedside. I think it is safe to assume that Sheen was not in the running for the part. Both Harry’s Law and 2.5 Men are produced by Warner Bros. TV.

Kathy def knows how to make a male role her own
ReplyDeleteI was definitely thinking the ghost of Charlie to show up at some point on the show, but I figured they'd work something out to get Charlie Sheen back to do it. This is just... weird...
ReplyDeletePigs would fly out of Tim Tebow's anus before Charlie Sheen showed up on Two and a Half Men again.
