“Two and a Half Men” Creator Made Fun of Charlie Sheen At the End of His Shows Monday!
"Two and a Half Men" co-creator CHUCK LORRE took shots at CHARLIE SHEEN Monday night, at the end of both "Men" and his other comedy, "Mike & Molly".
But before we can explain HOW he did it, we have to drop a little TV industry lingo on you.
You've probably never heard the term "VANITY CARD" before, but you've seen tons of them.
They're those quick little stills... or sometimes there's actual motion in them... that come at the very end of a show, to say who the executive producer was.
For example, J.J. ABRAMS' vanity card is that "Bad Robot" clip. TINA FEY'S is the baby in the peacock costume.
Perhaps the most famous vanity card of them all is the one used by producer Gary David Goldberg for his Ubu Productions. It features a picture of a black lab holding a frisbee in its mouth. A voice says, quote, "Sit, Ubu, sit. Good dog"... followed by a single bark. (You can see it here.)
Anyway, Chuck Lorre very often puts little messages or jokes on his vanity cards. And on Monday, they both appeared to be aimed at Charlie.
The "Two and a Half Men" card DEFINITELY was. It said, quote, "I exercise regularly. I eat moderate amounts of healthy food. I make sure to get plenty of rest. I see my doctor once a year and my dentist twice a year. I floss every night.
"I've had chest x–rays, cardio stress tests, EKG's and colonoscopies. I see a psychologist and have a variety of hobbies to reduce stress. I don't drink. I don't smoke. I don't do drugs. I don't have crazy, reckless sex with strangers.
"If Charlie Sheen outlives me, I'm gonna be really pissed."
The card that ran after "Mike & Molly" was more veiled. It didn't mention Charlie by name, but it talked about someone who partied in order to stop feeling, quote, "dead inside"... and then died.
TMZ caught up with Charlie last night and got his response. He said, quote, "Chuck I will outlive you. I will piss you off. I miss you, man." (Here's video.)
