Instead of delivering on that promise, producers opted to crush a Sheen look-alike with a falling piano in the sort of lame sight gag the insanely long-running sitcom had become known for in its later seasons.
To make matters worse, the feud between Sheen and Chuck Lorre was re-ignited when the showrunner opted to end the series by taking one last jab at Sheen in one of his famous vanity card rants.
Sadly, the Sheenius seems to no longer be teetering on the brink of criminal insanity these days, but he did have some choice words for Lorre when a TMZ camera caught up with him yesterday.
Sheen was at the mall, hanging out with the guy who played Eddie Winslow on Family Matters (seriously) when he took some time out of his shopping to share some health tips (Marlboros) and threaten to kill his former boss.
Ya know, just a typical Monday:
"I don't care if he lives or dies," Sheen said when asked about Lorre. "To be that immature and that completely uninvolved and that stupid in my face? You must feel safe, motherf--ker."
It's not quite on par with the tiger-blooded warlock from mars rants of yesteryear, but from the sound of things, Sheen might be working up to another breakdown. Get your popcorn ready.
In 1991, Charlie and some friends contacted the FBI about what they believed to be a footage of actual murders. Turns out it was just a Japanese horror film.
Charlie Brown, the Cincinatti Reds, death threats to ex -wives...what do these thigs have in common? They're all immortalized on Charlie Sheen's body in tattoo form! Speaking of threatening to kill people...
Charlie has threatened to kill people ranging from his ex-wives to his former bosses on several occasions. You or I might go to jail for something like that, but we're not warlocks.
Sheen "accidentally" shot John Travolta's wife while they were dating in the early 90s. Needless to say, the relationship dissolved shortly thereafter.
Charlie Sheen thought he would be a good mentor to Lindsay Lohan (ed. note: HAHAHAHA!). In fact he kept mentioning the idea in interviews until the troubled actress reportedly begged Charlie to stop talking about her.
Charlie and Bret formed a film production company in the 90s. The two even co-wrote and co-directed a film entitled No Code of Conduct. Sadly, it's hard to find a DVD copy.
According to Sheen, he and Rihanna were dining in the same restaurant when he sent a request for her to come over and meet his wife. She declined and ended up becoming the subject of one of Sheen's epic Twitter rants. RiRi responded by calling Sheen an "old queen."
One of Charlie's first big roles was Mitch "Wild Thing" Vaughn in the 1989 comedy Major League. Turns out Charlie dodn't have to do much research for the part. Not only was he already a wild thing, he'd spent several summers at an exclusive baseball camp and a coach who worked with him told ESPN Sheen could've gone pro.
Charlie and the big-haired Jersey Shore star have been spotting hanging out on multiple occasions. They were recently seen bro-ing down at one of Pauly's gigs in Boston.
In the late 80s, an up-and-coming actress naed Winona Horowitz was struggling to come up with a stage name. Sheen suggested Ryder after listening to The Doors' song "Riders on the Storm." Ryder confirms the story, but Sheen continues to gripe that she hasn't diven him enough credit.
Charlie Sheen was on screen for about 3 minutes in the 80s comedy classic Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Even so, he stayed up for two days to achieve the proper "strung out" look for his character. Now he has that look all the time.
Bree Olson is one of the many porn stars Sheen has dated. She said he absolutley rocked her world in bed. High praise coming from someone as experienced as Bree.
