Two and a Half Men aired on CBS from September 22, 2003, to February 19, 2015. Chuck Lorre and Lee Aronsohn were responsible for creating the show. It followed the lives of two brothers and a young boy living together in a beachfront house in Malibu, California.

The show focused on the interactions and humorous situations that arose from the starkly different personalities of the main characters. Throughout its run, Two and a Half Men was known for its witty dialogue, situational comedy, and Charlie Sheen's character's womanizing antics.

Updated March 2024: Since 2023, both Ashton Kutcher and Charlie Sheen have decreased their net worth. Kutcher by $80 million and Sheen by $7 million. For Kutcher, this could have to do with the fact that he has been laying low since news broke that he and his wife, Mila Kunis wrote letters supporting Danny Masterson during his abuse trial. As for Sheen, between making child support payments and not working much, his net worth has continued to dwindle over the years. The remainder of the cast has kept their net worth intact.
