Product Description Join the comedy of this fifth season of Two And A Half Men which opens with Jake getting ready to start a new school as he advances to junior high. Alan and Charlie take him school shopping and find themselves in trouble. The comedy continues in this lovable comedy TV series starring Charlie Sheen. Amazon.co.uk Review Now firmly established as one of America’s favourite comedy series, it’s tricky not to fall for the charms of Two And A Half Men, as it confidently hits its fifth season. At heart, it’s the story of two brothers. On one hand, there’s Jon Cryer’s Alan, who it’s fair to say is the calmer and more sensible of the two. Then there’s Charlie Sheen as, naturally, Charlie, who doesn’t have that many cares in his life, and is a natural born womaniser. Season five of Two And A Half Men includes the 100th episode of the show, but there are many other highlights too. Season five includes Alan persuading Charlie that the women they date need to be more respectable, Charlie trying to entertain a four-year old, Alan’s attempts to steal Charlie’s girlfriend and then Charlie also seeking relationship advice. It’s a fairly conventional mix of plotlines, granted, but Two And A Half Men mines many laughs from them. It helps that Sheen and Cryer are a really good double act, and aided by a supporting cast that includes Angus T Jones and Conchata Ferrell (along with a few surprise guest appearances), the show is hard to resist. Five seasons on, its popularity and quality shows little sign of dropping, and it’s a comedy you can consistently rely on to generate chuckles. --Jon Foster
