Two and a Half Men and my list of expectations from the final season


[embed width="620"]http://vimeo

com/16692088[/embed] A lot of the fame can be attributed to the star-studded cast the show has; with the controversial yet famous Charlie Sheen being in the lead role for the first eight seasons, to getting Ashton Kutcher taking over “the ashes” of Sheen

Meanwhile, many huge celebrities also made regular appearances on the show, some prominent ones being Sean Penn, Megan Fox, Steven Tyler and Mila Kunis

Despite the ups and downs faced by the series the ‘men’, somehow, managed to survive

This being the last season expectations are sky-rocketing! In light of that, here is my very own list of expectations (wishes) that I hope to see in the final season of the series: 1)       Make Walden more Charlie I know Walden can never really be Charlie but a little hint here or there won’t hurt; besides, Charlie’s charm is hard to forget, give us something to hold on to

Walden seems to be perpetually caught up on an emotional rollercoaster

Although the producers did try to give him a ‘playa’ edge in the previous season, it just didn’t meet the extent we, the audience, expected

While Charlie was rich but old, Walden is young and rich; you don’t expect that type of guy to be in a relationship or as someone looking to settle down

I do realise that bringing in another version of Charlie would be over-the-top, but flashes of resemblance will connect the 8 seasons with Charlie to this new Two and a Half Men a lot more

Also, and this is my humble opinion, but the tech geek aspect of Walden’s life also needs to brought down a notch; the show is called Two and a Half Men not The Big Bang Theory! We also hope he doesn’t get back with any of his previous partners, all of whom we hated! [caption id="" align="alignnone" width="600"] Photo: IMDb[/caption] 2)       Where is Jake? What happened to Jake? I know the producers are aware of this, but he does happen to be ‘half of the men’ and he has been missing in action for far too long

Yes Angus T Jones, Jake, did make some controversial remarks about the show and does have college to attend in real life because he is a kid, but it would be nice to see how his life unfolds towards the end of the series as well

His conclusion is long overdue and honestly, he was an important part of the show

We miss the stupid albeit funny things Jake did/said with the gang

The kid literally grew up with the ‘men’

Everyone lives happily ever after but, Alan? No! You can’t give Alan a happy ending

Yes, don’t take me wrong, I do feel for the guy sometimes – he is a cheap, deceitful freeloader but remains to be the one who cares the most about everyone else around him, feels their pain and helps them carry on with lives, while his own life is a wreck – but can you really see Alan being anything but a wreck? Nah! That just doesn’t make any sense! If Alan gets a happy ending, he ceases to be Alan

He deserves to be the sponge living at somebody else’s house

Okay sure, maybe give him a teeny-weeny bit of happiness, give him Lindsey, but that’s it!! Anything more would be overkill

[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="600"] Photo: IMDb[/caption] 4)       Jenny! After Jake’s departure, Jenny, Charlie’s long lost daughter, took over as ‘half of the men’

Although this may have been the producers way of bringing bits of Charlie back to our lives, and is shown, successfully, to share many personality traits with her deceased father

After Alan, Jenny is the most fun character in the series

She is already in a relationship and we expect her to settle down, all the while continuing to be part of the ‘men’

But shouldn’t there be a twist in her story as well? What if she isn’t actually Charlie’s daughter and turns out to be a freeloader like Alan? Remember the producers had almost the same storyline with the character of Courtney Leopold, played by actress Jenny McCarthy, during season five

So who knows! [caption id="" align="alignnone" width="600"] Photo: IMDb[/caption] 5)       The rest of gang Berta – truly the world’s best housekeeper

We expect her to continue with a lot of pot brownie eating, less working and taunting “zippy” every time! Evelyn – by now we expect to see her and her husband dead

The woman was of importance during the time Charlie was alive but now, please kill her off

Rose – is also missing

The last we knew of her was the fact that she was an investor in Walden’s girlfriend’s fashion line

So is she still stalking Walden and trying to get to him? A truly fun twist would be if she could somehow tell us the truth about what exactly happened to Charlie

Also, Lindsey – we love her! She is so funny; it would be lovely to see her get back with Alan

I know it’s a stupid thought; they killed the character and everything, but just to say adiós, just to make an entry, in whatever way, feature Charlie at least once, perhaps as a ghost, to say goodbye to his fans! Or he could be a pedestrian on the street who bumps into Alan, a janitor in a relationship with Berta, whatever helps float the boat

The guy built the show! For eight seasons he made Two and a Half Men what it is

He was and is an integral part of the show, and his fans deserve to see him one last time
