Actual, Non-Halloween Related Warning: 'Charlie Sheen Is Going To Die This Week'

Two-and-a-half-men_500.jpgWe’ve been having fun with Halloween today here at the Movieline Terrordrome, but here’s some actually scary news for you: Charlie Sheen has moved on from his hookers-and-blow debacle from last week to a NEW hookers-and-blow debacle. But things are so bad that a long-time friend of Sheen’s has declared “Charlie Sheen is going to die this week.”

Radar is reporting that, after being hospitalized and undergoing psychiatric evaluation last week in New York, Charlie Sheen has been entertaining a steady stream of prostitutes and hoovering up massive amounts of cocaine non-stop. Says one of Radar’s sources, “It’s been a non-stop party of drugs and hookers since Charlie got home. He is completely out of control. No one can get through to him.”

Whether Sheen succumbs to the fatal prediction made by his close friend is anyone’s guess, but from the sounds of it, he certainly is doing his darndest to make it come true.

And while the lion’s share of the blame for Sheen’s behavior clearly and obviously rests on his coked-out shoulders, I think we shouldn’t forget that CBS bears at least partial blame in this sad mess. CBS’ willingness to look the other way so long as their toot-happy star was still raking in the bucks for them — and even give him a raise even after being charged with assault — is deplorable and only worsened the matter. Their enabling helped paper over any problems Sheen might have been forced to confront if he was removed from his sitcom.

Again, is this largely Sheen’s own responsibility? Of course. Would being fired or reprimanded by CBS have prevented these latest episodes? Maybe yes, perhaps not. But CBS turning a blind eye has certainly been a detriment to Sheen and his family.
