Mark Oakley has just watched 24 episodes' worth of Charlie Sheen’s hairy legs.
The price he paid for reviewing Two And A Half Men…
Who wears short shorts?
Its also one of Channel Fives US imports which the channel bought the rights for alongsideJoey.
Crucially though, is it funnier than the ex-Friends stars show?
On paper, it all sounds quite promising.
For the uninitiated,Two and a Half Mencentres on brothers Charlie and Alan Harper and Alans son Jake.
So, the basic premise in born.
Give a cute kid a funny line or place him in an inappropriate situation and laughs will undoubtedly ensue.
With two differing father figures watching over him, Jakes role as a third comedic foil was a given.
But what happens when that same kid grows up and stops being cute?
Unfortunately, said actor (Angus T Jones) isnt great.
Jon Cryer on the other hand steals the show.
The other comedic highlight is Rose.
All-in-all, series three is a slow burner.
So, Charlie Sheens legs aside, this is solid, if not gut-bustlingly funny, comedic ground.
Two And A Half Men season 3 is out now.

3 out of 5
