Charlie (Charlie Sheen, Spin City) is a well-to-do bachelor with a house at the beach, a Jaguar in the garage and an easy way with women. His casual Malibu lifestyle is interrupted when his tightly wound brother, Alan (Jon Cryer, Pretty in Pink, The Trouble with Normal), who's facing a divorce, and Alan's son, Jake (Angus T. Jones, See Spot Run, The Rookie), come to stay with him. Together, these two and a half men confront the challenges of growing upfinally. Complicating matters are the brothers' self-obsessed, controlling mother, Evelyn (Holland Taylor, Baby Bob), and Alan's possibly gay estranged wife, Judith (Marin Hinkle, Once and Again). Not to forget Rose (Melanie Lynskey, Detroit Rock City), a one night stand and current neighbor of Charlie's, who wants to be a part of his life and is willing to do anything to be around.
