CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler told TV reporters Friday that she has given a great deal of thought to Sheen on a "human level," including his role as a father. But she said the situation can't be viewed simplistically, calling him a professional who shows up for work on "Two and a Half Men" and does his job well. Sheen's sitcom is a hit, Tassler said, adding, "that's all I have to say."
The actor's messy personal life has included a wild night that left a New York hotel room in tatters and sent Sheen to the hospital, and a guilty plea last summer to assaulting his wife in Aspen, Colorado.
Sheen's legal issues haven't hurt "Men," which has remained part of the Top 20 prime-time shows ranked by Nielsen Co. since the hotel incident last year.
