Two and a Half Men, starring Charlie Sheen and Jon Cryer, became one of the most popular sitcoms after it impressed audiences with its unique story and humor. Another primary reason behind the show's runaway success was its co-creator, Chuck Lorre.
As the mastermind behind several critically acclaimed shows like The Big Bang Theory and Cybill, Lorre is hailed as the undisputed legend of sitcoms. While audiences were also able to feel the magic of Chuck Lorre in Two and a Half Men, the co-creator almost left the show halfway through because of Sheen.
Besides all the positive elements of the show, Two and a Half Men also made several headlines due to Charlie Sheen's many controversies. But all hell broke loose when Sheen was embroiled in a feud with Lorre that almost convinced the latter to leave the show.
