The New Odd Couple Gives Fans More Laughs

By Yahoo! Shopping User  Dec 21, 2008

Pros: Every episode has more than enough laughs to make even a single man want to stay home at least one night a week.

Cons: The commentary and bonus features don't really add much to the overall experience. That is with the exception of the gag reel.

The odd couple of the 21st Century is back yet again with another season chock full of laughs, and enough man jokes to give even single men reason to stay home one night a week. The 2007 Peoples Choice Award for Favorite Comedy brings fans laughs gal...ore in every episode. This season also brings fans what is likely one of the best episodes of the series so far in "Mr. McGlue's Feedbag." This episode sees Charlie taking young Jake to the horsetrack instead of helping him with his book report. Jake ends up winning a very large amount of money. This leads to a semi-Abbott & Costello moment on their drive back from the track. Season four starts right up where the third season left off. Alan is now going through a divorce with the young Candy, who is slowly written out of the show. Rose, Charlie's stalker is also written out. She leaves for London late in the season as she finally realizes Charlie has no interest in her. The irony here is that Charlie actually ends up missing Rose, and goes to London after her later. Jake is also growing up more in this season. This leads fans to wonder just how much longer Two and a Half Men will last in its current run on air. He's a third wheel, but without Jake, there really is no "half-a-man." So a lot of the writing for this show rests on the future of Jake. Thankfully for fans, the show's writers have manged to keep him involved so far. But that can only last for so long. In the meantime, fans of this outstanding show now have four full seasons to enjoy, and more to come in the future. Read more Less
