Two and a Half Men Heads to Nick at Nite; WE tv Acquires Criminal Minds
Charlie Sheen is heading to Nick at Nite. Reruns of Two and a Half Men will begin airing on Nick at Nite on Wednesday, Dec. 6 in the late night. The sitcom will air every night at 1:00am & 1:30am ET replacing an hour of Fresh Prince, as that series will still air at 10:00pm & 10:30pm. Two and a Half Men will lead into The Goldbergs at 2:00am & 2:30am. Friends will be the lead-in for Two and a Half Men from 11pm-1am. The series has also aired on FX (for over 7 years), but it is no longer on the schedule as of this week...so perhaps Nick at Nite will now be the exclusive cable home? The series continues to air locally in broadcast syndication. More info to come, as we get it. In this popular sitcom, carefree bachelor Charlie Harper's (Charlie Sheen) life is turned upside down when his divorced brother Alan (Jon Cryer) and nephew Jake (Angus T. Jones) move in with him. Two and a Half Men aired from 2003-2015 on CBS.
WE tv will begin airing the critically-acclaimed drama, Criminal Minds, starting Saturday, December 16 from 10am-5am ET/PT. The first ten seasons will continue to air during all-day binge-a-thons on Saturdays from 10am-1am ET/PT and Mondays from 4pm-1am ET/PT. Each one hour episode follows an elite team of FBI profilers who are set on catching various criminals through behavioral profiling. The Behavioral Analysis Unit's most prominent agent is David Rossi (Joe Mantegna), a founding member of the BAU who returns to help the team solve new cases, while pursuing some unfinished business of his own. The team is led by Special Agent Aaron Hotchner (Thomas Gibson), a family man who is able to gain people's trust and unlock their secrets. Other members include Emily Prentiss (Paget Brewster), the daughter of high-powered diplomats who must prove her worth to Hotchner; Special Agent Derek Morgan (Shemar Moore), an expert on obsessional crimes; Special Agent Dr. Spencer Reid (Matthew Gray Gubler), a classically misunderstood genius whose social IQ is as low as his intellectual IQ is high; Jennifer "J.J." Jareau (A.J. Cook), a confident young agent who acts as the unit liaison for the team, and Penelope Garcia (Kirsten Vangsness), a computer wizard who helps research the cases. Each member brings his or her own area of expertise to the table as they pinpoint predators' motivations and identify their emotional triggers in the attempt to stop them.
