Episode 09-02: Monday, 9/26/11
Another stellar ratings night for CBS and this venerable sitcom, which attracted a 7.4 in the demo and 20.52 million viewers. Kutcher and Cryer and company were down by 31% in the demo episode-to-episode but that’s still an incredible performance.
Season average: 9.1 in the demo and 24.63 million.
Episode 09-01: Monday, 9/19/11
There was a very high amount of anticipation surrounding the sitcom’s return and CBS was surely not disappointed by the ratings. Ashton Kutcher’s first episode attracted a whopping 10.7 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 28.74 million viewers. This was easily the show’s biggest performance to date and the event benefited the network’s entire Monday line-up. We don’t know how the new version of Men will compare to the old but it certainly got a good sampling.
Reference point: The 2010-11 season averaged a 4.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 14.22 million viewers.
Note: These ratings are collected by the Nielsen company and are the final national numbers. These are different from the fast affiliate numbers which are just estimates of the actual ratings and are reported on by most other outlets. The final nationals are typically released within 24 hours of the programming or, in the case of weekends and holidays, a couple days later.

My family was excited for the new season. We tried to support those actors who remained with the show. What happened? Why are the writers changing Allens’ character. What have the writers done with our characters. We are tired of suffering through each episode waiting for our characters to come back to life. We are not just turning this off but we are changing the channel. I suggest others to turn the channel during this time slot and maybe CBS will let this disaster go and offer something worth our time. It’s time to grieve the loss of our dear… Read more »
The writers made the show and they still make it. Charlie was just ONE of the actors, now he’s gone and someone else makes his job. Yes, he’s different, but the show is still as funny as it was before. And Charlie won’t return, get over it!
I have watched this show since it first aired. I love Charlie, he made the show… It is nothing without him. Please make it all a dream that Charlie s dead and bring him Back. I stopped watching it since they replaced Charlie. It doesn’t have the fun and laughs anymore. I refuse to watch it until Charlie returns. Its just not the same anymore.
Please bring back Charlie………
If they can’t bring Charlie back, get Rob Lowe to play the part. He is handsome and can play funny or dramatic parts.
As long as the so called “18 – 49” s like this show, I imagine it will be renewed. I guess the network can be thankful for the bizarre thinking this group has. The show does stink and the real strength of the original cast (who I do like and admire) were over shadowed by Aston Kutcher who has no talent for good comedy, only the dimwitted kind. I stopped watching since day one of the new series.
IT SUUUUUUUCKS, ASHTON is a piece of crap. It should be called TWO IDIOTS AND A HALF MEN.
Chuck Lory, are you listening? LINUS has a good idea – – “Make Charlie being dead a bad dream – Make Allan wake up ..etc.” Aston Kucher’s character is pathetic, and I’m defintely not liking Allan these days – with Charlie, Allan was at least a little lovable. Now he’s just a nasty freeloader and a bad influence on his kid!
Talentless Kutcher and it shows. I try to watch it because nothing on at that time but fall asleep – no storyline- no talent.
It’s amazing that they would choose him. He’s so dull.
MAKE CHARLIE BEING DEAD A DREAM… MAKE ALLEN WAKE UP AND GET
THE SHOW BACK WITH CHARLIE…. STILL WATCH ALL THE RERUNS BUT
NEVER THE NEW SHOWS….. THE SHOW IS TERRIBLE AND A JOKE
Cancel it. It’s Horrible. No surprise that it tanked without Sheen.
Charlie Sheen was the show!! Beg him to come back. Put aside the grudges and make the magic again. Kutcher is cool, but not for this show.
Bring Charlie Back!!!!!!1
take this show off and put heroes back on
Yeah bring heroes back! Haha… And Charlie!!!
SUCKS! We tuned in 1st episode & the the 5th…for about 2 minutes. Have not tried again. Cannot have 2 “Men” whining, crying, the same 130 lb. body, one a freak and one looking dirty, let alone the poor acting. Alan WAS good with being a whimp, but 2 whimps, NOT!
OMG – If they renew this piece of garbage, I think I might just slit my wrists! But nobody at WB/CBS seems to care how much people absolutely hate this show with Kutcher (and the writing). But with so many really good shows getting the axe in 2011 and 2012, this one should be on the top of the list as the very worst.
