Last night's double premiere of the new Charlie Sheen sitcom "Anger Management" pulled record ratings for cable sitcoms not on Disney Channel or Nickelodeon and for a premiere episode on the channel, despite getting the worst reviews any FX original series has received since "The Shield" made the channel a player in original scripted series:
I'm sure the back-90 order (following syndicator Debmar-Mercury's patented "Tyler Perry model") will soon be in and Sheen will suddenly have to endure a two-episode a week filming schedule for 45 weeks until the show makes its syndication debut in fall 2013.

I've just decided that all the egomaniacal gasbags in Hollywood need
to just drop off my radar. I've taught online marketing and personal
branding for the last 18 months and, as a matter of course, had to
follow chunkheads like Sheen and Paris Hilton. Now that I don't have
to do that anymore, I want them to fade back into the obscurity of
being somebody else's problem.
Remember during the Clinton years when we as a nation stopped reacting
to Rush Limbaugh and he almost vanished from notoriety? By ignoring
him, we minimized him. It wasn't until a few years later when the
Olbermann's of the world felt the need to call out the guy for being
the lunatic he obviously is that the spotlight shone upon him again.
I choose to ignore Sarah Palin because she is a nonentity and not
worth my time. Same with Sheen and Rush and anybody named Kardashian.
I just don't have the energy to care about these people who so clearly
don't care for anyone else but themselves. Sheen's new sitcom might be
the best since The Bob Newhart Show; I don't care. It doesn't exist in
my universe.

ignore celebrity news, we don't control the conversation. People need
common reference points for casual conversation, especially in places
where strangers meet like hair salons, checkout lines, and airport
gates, and where politics or sports (among men, mostly) could get
inflamed or contentious quickly, following celebrity foibles is
commonly acceptable and the crowd is most often on one side.
