The long-running CBS series "Two and a Half men" has been renewed for its eleventh season, the network announced on Twitter on Friday.
Ashton Kutcher and Jon Cryer have signed on to play their characters again and Kutcher has now topped the chart for highest paid sitcom star, with a $700 000 per episode deal, as reported by Us Magazine.
However, that is still less than previous "Two and a Half Men" star Charlie Sheen's $1.2 million per episode salary, but it's still a sweet deal.
Meanwhile Angus T. Jones' future in the sitcom is still uncertain. The actor ran into a bit of hot water after he urged viewers not to watch the show because its filth during an interview with a Christian publication.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Warner Bros. Television are "working out a deal" for the 19-year-old, who's been on the series since day one. Jones may find himself in a recurring role when Season 11 starts in the fall.
Earlier this year, CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler said the network wanted Jones "to be part of it next year."
"I think he would like to come back too, we would like him to . . . He made his public apology, and we've moved on. And we'd like the show back, and we'd like him to come back too," she told reporters at the Television Critics Association Press Tour in Pasadena.
According NBC News , Angus T. Jones said at the annual PaleyFest in Los Angeles that he felt "very awkward" being part of the more grown-up storylines that "Two and a Half Men" has covered during the current season in which his character Jake Harper began intimate encounters with women of all ages.
"'I mean, I am with these people on set that I have been with since I was 8 years old,' he said. 'And (I'm) doing the adult thing when I am still not an adult. I mean, I am 18, but I am not an adult'."
