A Delightful Comic Serial

Here is a show that always brings a smile on my face. That's a guarantee.Two brothers,so very different in personalities,a mother delightfully self-centred,a little boy,cool and collected,a no nonsense housekeeper and the odd Rose who appears from the wainscoting-almost! The script is so good and delivered perfectly by all the actors.Charlie Sheen's casual spaced out persona brings out exactly who he is.A job most well done. Jon Cryer is just too good an actor.Excellent expression of a harassed,exasperated and slightly neurotic character often at sea as to how to deal with a bright son who now and then pairs up with his Uncle.And such talent in the little guy-Angus T. Jones. I always look forward to the appearance of the Mother and the Housekeeper.They are always so good.But my special favourite is Rose, enacted by the talented Melanie Lynskey.How subtly she brings out her obsessive and yet cute self.She is the right gal for Charlie's character, sweet,funny and crazy.
