Two and a Half Men

A bunch of people (and one half-person) who stand around and fart on network television.

There are some shows that strive to be great, create a lasting influence on future generations, and perhaps take home a few golden statuettes in the process. Then, there are the shows that settle for mere enjoyability or mediocrity, escapist entertainment that is easy to watch but not particularly groundbreaking. Two and a Half Men is the third type of TV show. It's the rare type of show about farts, transsexuals, farting transsexuals, and having sex with farting transsexuals.
But the story of Two and a Half Men isn't all farts and sunshine. Though a commercial behemoth since its very first season, the show has recently become plagued with casting quibbles that threaten its very existence.

The plan went off without a hitch, and nobody was ever the wiser (not pictured: Ashton Kutcher's cavernous mangina).
