The ratings for Two and a Half Men fell last season but the sitcom was still CBS’ second-highest scripted series. Will the numbers continue to fall or will they rise this year? Is the show getting to expensive to be renewed? We shall see.
Two and a Half Men revolves around the lives of unlikely housemates Alan Harper (Jon Cryer) and Walden Schmidt (Ashton Kutcher). Other regular castmembers include Conchata Ferrell, Holland Taylor, and Marin Hinkle. Recurring are Angus T. Jones, Melanie Lynskey, April Bowlby, Ryan Stiles, and Amber Tamblyn.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

Note: Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you still like the Two and a Half Men TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a 12th season?
KEEP THE SHOW. I LOVE IT!!!!!
And for them to keep Charlie’s house,brother,maid,stalker and even the furniture for awhile was just plan stupid. What was they thinking? I guess they wasn’t. Or maybe they thought the viewers were to stupid to notice Charlie was gone and Ashton was there lol Looks like Jake was the only one that had the sense to get out of there.
Now that they know they are on the way out it’s like they are not even trying. I mean really. They had portrayed Ashton as a Hot Guy, Sexy, like he could have any girl he wanted but yet his only hope of having a child was to marry Allen and adopted. OMG thank goodness this mess will finally be over. It’s time to give us a new show something worth watching. I don’t watch the show at all. I only keep it on the channel for a couple of minutes so the rating process ever how they do it… Read more »
Their mistake was keeping Jon Cryer. He never was funny and adding Amber Tamlym just made things worse. Jon Cryer story lines were stupid. Ashton Kutcher was good but he needs a better show with better supporting actors. He could’ve made it work had it just been him, his bachelor life with Conchetta Farrell staying on as his ever funny maid. The guy that played Herb was hilarious and should’ve left Judith, moved in with Kutcher and kicked Alan out. Those two, Herb and Kutcher’s character along with Conchetta Farrell would have kept it funny. In fact, Mr. Lorre, The… Read more »
It is a joke. Charlie made the show and the others tried to keep up. I think the new show proves they couldn’t. The only reason they added a gay female Charlie, Yeah right lol I guess they knew the show was going downhill so I guess they thought putting the girl on girl crap would keep the interest going, Well yeah if you’re a pervert. Not saying Gay’s are pervert please don’t get me wrong just saying it is the sex they thought would save the show. I don’t think anything could save this show. The name doesn’t even… Read more »
I don’t watch the show anymore. Charlie Sheen was such a natural, very smooth….I love watching all the reruns which probably has a higher rating then the current show. Ashton is too young and comes off as wet behind the ears.
The show was not so bad with Ashton (even if I prefer episodes with Charlie)…
producers ruined it by adding Amber Tamblyn as a sort of “female-Charlie”….
her character is annoying, I think this is the reason why ratings have dropped last season..
You can’t replace Jake Harper!
anyway I still hope to see Sheen and Angus for series finale!
I know there is the term ” dumbing down of our society ” but this show is so bad , the sexual contexts on the show are getting more and more predictable and just downright stupid and trying to fill Angus’ role with the gay daughter has become laughable and not in the good laugh sort of way !! I cannot believe the actors on this show ( no matter what they are paid ) can keep putting out this garbage !! CHUCK LORRE you are better than this !!
Finally an end, it stopped being funny after charlie had to leave, the jokes got worse and were the same. Time to say goodbye.
Me and my Hubby love sitting down after the girls have gone to bed and watch it. We love it.
12 seasons is long enough to milk the same tired joke.
When Charlie died so did the ratings, you cant replace a porter house 28oz steak w/a steak-um 2oz thin slice and expect it to have the same flavor…, Chuck is a dumb *uck he should of swallowed his pride cause the ratings was gona double….jon cryer and sheen was a super coyple like abbot and costello comes only once in a life time……..
