Production
In 2010, Syndication and Warner Bros. Television reached a multi-year broadcast agreement for the series, renewing it through at least the 2011–12 season.

But on February 24, 2011, Syndication and Warner Bros. decided to end production for the rest of the eighth season after actor Charlie Sheen entered drug rehabilitation and made "disparaging comments" about the series' creator and executive producer Chuck Lorre. Sheen's contract was terminated on March 7, 2011.

On April 26, 2013, Syndication renewed the series for an 11th season after closing one-year deals with actors Ashton Kutcher and Jon Cryer.

Angus T. Jones (who is attending college) was relegated to recurring status for Season 11, but never made a single appearance until the series finale. He was replaced by Jenny (portrayed by Amber Tamblyn), Charlie's previously unknown daughter.

On March 13, 2014, Syndication renewed the series for a 12th season, which Syndication subsequently announced would be the final season.

On February 19, 2015, "Two in a Half Men" aired after 12 seasons and 262 episodes.
