Washington: Charlie Sheen, who was fired from hit CBS sitcom ‘Two and a Half Men’ in March 2011 following his erratic behavior, offered an olive branch to his former colleagues at the Emmy Awards last night.
Sheen, who was tapped to be a surprise presenter, took the stage and wished the cast and crew of the series “the best” while presenting the award for Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series, which he called his “old category”."I want to take a moment to get something off my chest and say a few words to everybody here from `Two and a Half Men," Sheen said as a silence fell over the awards show audience.
"From the bottom of my heart, I wish you nothing but the best for this upcoming season. We spent eight wonderful years together and I know you will continue to make great television."The viewers obviously loved every minute of it. Tweets flooding into Kosta asking everything from where he was broadcasting to a personal “how many times have you been fired?” The last time I checked I believe I saw over 90,000 viewers had tuned in to the behind the scenes footage. It was a brilliant social media tool I hope more Hollywood events will implement in the future. The key to its success, in my opinion is not just having the technology in place, but rather a host like Kosta, with excellent improv talent, who can truly deliver on the backstage entertainment value.
