Product Description ------------------- Two and a Half Men: The Complete Ninth Season The multi-talented Ashton Kutcher, whose success spans film, television and social media, joins the cast of the Emmy® Award–nominated TWO AND A HALF MEN as the hit comedy series returns for its ninth season, continuing the laughs about men, women, sex, dating, divorce, mothers, single parenthood, surrogate families, money and, most importantly, love. Playing Internet billionaire Walden Schmidt, Kutcher (That ‘70s Show) joins Jon Cryer as the tightly wound Alan Harper, Angus T. Jones as Alan’s laidback son, Jake Harper, Holland Taylor as Alan’s narcissistic mother, Evelyn Harper, Marin Hinkle as Alan’s neurotic ex-wife Judith Harper and Conchata Ferrell as the b and blue-collar Berta on the top-rated series. Revamped and re-energized, the newly “manned” sitcom was created and executive produced by Chuck Lorre and Lee Aronsohn. ]]> .com ---- Season nine of Two and a Half Men marks a sea change--original star Charlie Sheen was fired for off-screen antics and was replaced by Ashton Kutcher. Fans of Sheen may be a bit slow to warm to Kutcher's character and chemistry, but viewers who give him a chance will realize that he and the rest of the cast (the amazing Jon Cryer and all-grown-up Angus T. Jones) are taking Two and a Half Men in a creative, new, and yes, funny direction. Kutcher plays Walden Schmidt, an Internet magnate who buys the beach mansion where Alan (Cryer) and Jake (Jones) have lived. The next thing you know, the three have decided to live together and form a makeshift new family of guys to give rise to comedy. Is Kutcher as talented a deadpan cynic as Charlie (Sheen)? No, but his softer weirdness helps take the cast and storylines in fresh new directions--something Two and a Half Men, after eight seasons, truly needed. Fans will not want to miss the long documentary/interview with show creator Chuck Lorre and the cast and writers about the "real story" behind the changes in the show (which necessitated the "death" of the character of Charlie). Also included is a feature on the "redesign" of the mansion set, which is a fascinating look at just how on-screen magic is created. Finally, there's a gag reel that should lay to rest any doubt that this new cast is having the time of their lives. Long live Men! --A.T. Hurley
