Anger Management is light comedy. Charlie Sheen is funny as usual. Charlie has same old Charlie Harper characteristics but in more toned down way.Supporting cast is great. Charlie's Wife/Girlfriend does great job. Charlie has new role as father which wasn't seen in Two and a Half Men.Anger Management seminar don't take much time out of each episode but they are quite funny. Overall the tone of the series is very light. Not overly emotional just like two and a half men. But felt it did better job than Two and a Half Men did at comedy after Charlie left.Spoiler: Some of the jail scenes in the series are funny too.

I have been watching Anger Management in reruns and enjoy it very much. I hated Two and a Half Men, so I didn't try watching until I stumbled upon it one night and found the writing intelligent and original, and the characters very entertaining.Charlie Sheen's character is similar to the one he played on Two and a Half Men, but the ensemble cast is stronger and funnier. The fact that Charlie plays a loser who runs group therapy sessions in an attempt to help other losers is especially funny because it has a ring of truth. I had a mental health professional in my family, and everyone I met through her in that field had something emotionally or socially wrong with them. This show reveals the truth about those who set themselves up to tell everyone else how to live.I especially like the encounters he has with dangerous criminals, who belong to the group he leads at a local prison. They would be frightening and dangerous in another context, but the way their lines are delivered are so deadpan, I can't help but laugh. I wish the producers would consider bringing this back.

I thought Charlie Sheen Carrier was done... but after watching few episodes of this show (spatially the second season) I realized I am loathing an hour after the show was over. The jokes are similar to the first few seasons of "Two and a half men", before Jake grew up... when it was actually FUN to watch. I believe these are the same writers (I have no idea but it sounds like it). I don't believe this show is being funny got anything to do with Charlie Sheen, it is simply about good & sophisticated writers that doing great job with the script and the jokes, there are no limits, no barriers... You must ignore the bad reviews and give it a chance.

It was so sorrowful to see this episode revive in the "Old Charlie" Show. Getting drunk and promotion of such lifestyle wasn't the one that held the fan group for you earlier, but the crude brilliance and quirkiness to get out from any fix in the most bizarre, funny and yet logical way that was the stuff that attracted the audience. And with being in the role of a Counselor cum Psychotherapist there is a lot of scope for explorations, just ask the writers to start reading DSM and formulate instances lightly, that could precipitate the funny side of the issues, people who utilizes it and people who gets on with it.(Don't go seriously as you guys did with Sam in the first episodes - there was no fun, but sympathy) For E.g Paranoia can be done nicely done and i would say, bring in actors like Robin Williams for 1or 2 sessions for revving up.And some observations The Ex-Wife character, always appears as if stoned - but in this episode it was bit more improved, like at instances somebody had a switch to electrocute her.The Nolan character could be improved, it is always dull - could add social phobia as a associated behavioral pattern with bouts of depression.Other characters also could be pumped up in character profiles, but this two must see a change.Then if you guys plan to bring back the current ex-girlfriend, it would be nice if she could be fit rather than being thin. Some episodes shows her like a ghostly figure, the frailty was so evident. But good acting.Roles of your Father, Histrionic Lacey's current roles and Daughter's(Current role could be explored into a bad-ass form and into the dynamics between father and daughter) are good.It is okay to a certain extent to show the womanizers normal day to day issues with a friend acting as a buffer. But i think that is the limit where the fun part ends. Showing more skin just for it isn't fun(It is like Alan's disgusting coloca jokes and being naked just for the sake of it - as seen in the last episodes of two and 1/2 men) And i personally think at this point the vitality of a alpha-male character with its force and baseball/drunkard wisdom could be updated into your character profile.2 and 1/2 men has lost its edge with you gone, they have pitched various ideas only 2 or 3 structural inputs really worked and they tried hard too. Don't know how it will unfold in the next season, But every former fan of 2 & 1/2 men really misses you.I hope you or somebody in your team sees this and gives a swirl with this.And i saw the latest jay Leno interview, come on man - what ever is personal keep it as such, be just the entertainer that you are, on TV. I would say a "Cat only needs once to know the uneasiness of water".
