His only work i've seen him in between Pretty In Pink and Two And A Half Men is Hot Shots!. If Charlie Sheen leave the show, I imagine his career will be back to MIA status.

He's odd-looking. And recently thought his ex-wife put out a hit on him.
On January 15, 2010, it was reported that Cryer told police he believed his life was in danger and that his ex-wife had hired a hitman to kill him. The following weekend, Two and a Half Men was filmed without its usual live audience, apparently due to concerns over Cryer's safety.

Oh, so that is who Jon Cryer is. You saved me the trouble of having to google his name.
He remains now, and will always be, a Duck man.

Exactly! I have never seen Two and a Half Men - I don't know what's on at the same time, but I've never watched it. Even if I had, he'd still be Ducky to me.

I've never seen anything that he's been in. Basically because shows like Two and a Half Men appear so inane in the promos that I don't waste my time watching them even once to determine if just the promo was bad or if it was truly reflective of the show as a whole. I guess this is a warning to studio executives - don't make inane promos!

It angers me that his horrible show is the top rated comedy on TV.

Wishes he was Matthew Broderick.
2 And a Half Men is hysterical. My favorite sitcom on tv. Well, actually the only one I really watch.

Played Praeger in a great episode of Andy Richter Controls the Universe. A very underrated show that finally got a dvd release last year.

Dude it's the same thing every week. All they do is make double entendre sex jokes that are juvenile. No realistic situations or conversations. Nobody talks like they do.

Honestly though, just about everty sitcom is the same joke just with a different cast. That one with Jim Belushi is just awful.
Queen of Queens is the only other sitcom I watch besides Two and Half Men.

Try Modern Family. Laugh out loud funny while being smart and edgy.

That show's hilarious. I assume it's doomed.
I do catch Two and a Half Men on occasion though, and it always makes me laugh. Yeah I know the show's incredibly inane, but it's still damn funny.

Phil is great and his wife is super hot.yes, she's slamming.. but Gloria steals the show in terms of hotness.

I'm not sure if I've ever seen Pretty in Pink. Maybe I have but I'm not sure because those John Hughes movies all kind of blend together into one big movie.

Ha ha, no. I barely remember a lot of that movie actually and I've seen it more than once.

I can understand that....it was not one of my favorites, see above. :lol:
"Sixteen Candles" and "The Breakfast Club," on the other hand....

"Sixteen Candles" and "The Breakfast Club," on the other hand....ugh... nothing against you since you brought it up. Breakfast Club is second to Napoleon Dynamite as the biggest movie to suck so hard but be so popular.

You may discuss the results of this thread, but it would be best if the discussion of today's celeb would just be laid to rest. This means you Brad.

I mean every one of the characters is a complete tool played by terrible actors in an extraordinarily unbelievable and ridiculous story. I mean if you want to rate good cheesey 80s movies to not take seriously, sure it could have some value. But the credit it gets, I don't know. The only good thing about that movie is the song "Don't You", and the scene where the wannabee dirtbag guy starts freaking out about his dad.

Did you watch it in the 80s or only later?

I'm the same age. I loved all those movies. Every last one. :lol:
So even as a young person you rebelled against pop culture?
