Just in the back of my mind, with the seeming success of Charlie Sheen's plans to tour with an as-yet-undefined show, taking a page right out Conan O'Brien's playbook after NBC dumped him, will this tour prove to be a genius move or will we see that the warlock has no clothes?
If the whispers are true, that CBS is considering rehiring Sheen after seeing how much interest and advance ticket sales he's getting for his tour, it could end up that Sheen will be seen as crazy like a fox, especially if he actually commands a still higher salary to return to "Two & A Half Men."
But I can't help but suspect that with no real idea what Sheen may be doing in the performances, it could blow up in his face. A 90-minute or more live show of incoherent ramblings and no real plan for entertaining an audience would be a far cry from Conan O'Brien's tour that had a clear set list of songs, video clips, skits and other written pieces. One or two train wreck shows on the first couple stops of the tour could scuttle the rest of the tour, especially if dissatisfied audiences start demanding refunds.
Which way do you think the tour will end up? I'd be curious to hear. Let's see who's right.
