Anger Management: Season One [Blu-ray]

Sheen's Anger is Managed to a dullness
I miss Charlie Sheen in Two and A Half Men. The show lacked after he was fired. Anger Management is a lollipop to fans of Men. The problem with Anger Management is Sheen is sorta muted in this new role, I miss good ole Charlie Harper. This character of Charlie Goodson seems dull and boring.

As a retired Baseball player turned shrink, Sheen does shine through. The world does revolve around his character. He needs more development to grow in this series. there are times Sheen seems like he is phoning his performance in rather than allowing himself to be a full comedic speed.

Thanks for the english subs

Celebrities seem to garner attention for the worst behavior possible and people these days seem to think that's cool. It doesn't say much for us does it?

But Sheen has come back from the wild ways he displayed and attempted to not only create a new series that he can star in but that can poke fun at his past behavior at the same time. ANGER MANAGEMENT stars Sheen as Charlie Goodson, an ex-major league baseball player who in a fit of rage tried to break a bat over his leg...only to injure himself instead and thus ending his career. Seeing the light so to speak he in turn became an anger management therapist with a successful private practice. He still occasionally finds himself on the verge of anger but seems to...
