Two and a Half Men halted

CBS has halted production of Charlie Sheen’s Two and a Half Men – the network’s most watched comedy - as the actor has opted to undergo treatment at a rehabilitation facility. The network and show creator Chuck Lorre announced the temporary suspension in an e-mailed statement.

Stan Rosenfield, a publicist for the actor, said: “As a preventative measure, Charlie Sheen has entered a rehabilitation facility.” Sheen was arrested on Dec. 25 in Aspen, Colorado, for alleged domestic violence.
