According to a report by CNN, Jon Cryer who plays Alan Harper and Angus T. Jones who is Charlie's nephew 'Jake' on the CBS hit show, those two cast members will "likely get paid whether or not they're working", but the crew of the show will not as they are considered to be freelance workers.
Jon Cryer reportedly makes $550,000 per episode according to Celebrity Net Worth (click here) even though other websites report differing amounts.
Take for example, TMZ who obtained this picture of Jon picking up his son from school yesterday (February 2) in Los Angeles who said that Jon is "losing $400,000" per episode while Sheen is away. Click here for photo.
(Click here for information about Charlie Sheen's $2 million salary per episode.)
And what about the crew of Two and a Half Men?
According to EOnline.com, the crew is rightfully "pissed" stating, "A lot of us do not get paid, if we don't work. So, if he's off getting rehabbed, or porn-o-ing, or whatever, we're screwed."
CBS has not made any official statement regarding how the crew is affected by Sheen's absence.

Post a CommentWhile they could produce a few articles w/o Charlie -- maybe he disappeared on a drunkin' excursion again -- he DOES make the show and I would regret seeing another life lost to inappropriate behavior and addictions.
I think Jon Cryer is funny without Sheen, they should just go with him.
I think they should make some episodes without Sheen, they can always have him on an extended vacation.
