Two and a Half Men lasted for 12 seasons despite the controversy and behind-the-scenes issues that plagued the show. Charlie Sheen made a controversial exit, while Angus T. Jones also criticized the show before leaving. 

Charlie Sheen and Jon Cryer had different reactions to Angus' meltdown. Jones turned his back on the show due to his religious beliefs and advised fans to stop watching, calling the show "filth."

He later apologized for his comments and expressed his gratitude and respect for his co-workers. Jon Cryer downplayed the situation and joked about it when he learned of Angus' departure.

 Ashton Kutcher looked shocked when he revealed the news to Cryer. Charlie Sheen blamed creator Chuck Lorre for the issues on the show, claiming that working for him caused extra stress for the cast. Sheen believed that Angus was influenced by Lorre's beliefs. Despite the controversy, Angus returned for the show's finale and received praise from Lorre.
