CBS has decided to take "Two and a Half Men" off their primetime roster after season 12 wraps up, Daily Mail reported.
Creator Chuck Lorre announced Friday that the sitcom, which has been rife with controversy and huge ratings for the past 11 years, will come to an end on Feb. 19, 2015 after 12 seasons on CBS.
Despite receiving continually negative reviews from some critics and even some of its stars, "Two and a Half Men" has received 47 Emmy Award nods since it premiered in 2003. Jon Cryer, who plays uptight single dad Alan Harper, has won twice.
The series, which has weathered through numerous public quarrels between its stars, executives and even some fans, was the most watched sitcom on TV from 2005 to 2009.
This was one of the reasons why the fallout between star Charlie Sheen, Lorre and Warner Bros. made headlines in 2011 after Sheen was kicked out of the show and replaced with Ashton Kutcher.
Sheen was dumped following accusations that he was showing up to work either drunk or on drugs (or both) and ended up at the center of a bizarre media blitz that only ended after he took his one-man circus on a nationwide tour that sold out theaters across the U.S.
Another "Two and a Half Men" mainstay followed Sheen two years later, after former child star Angus T. Jones, who plays Cryer's onscreen son, declared the sitcom "ungodly filth" and exited last year.
Unfortunately, Kutcher and his audience-drawing powers were not enough to bring back the sitcom to its former glory days and the show continued to see a decline in quality and viewers.
Still, "Two and a Half Men's" magic can't be denied either; even with it's lowest ratings ever, the show still has decent ratings. Season 12 is currently averaging 10.1 million viewers.
Meanwhile, CBS has announced the premieres of several new midseason shows.
"The Odd Couple" will be making its television debut before "Two and a Half Men's" series finale on Feb. 19 at 8:30 p.m. The new series, a reboot of the 1968 play and '70s sitcom, stars Matthew Perry and Thomas Lennon.
"House" executive producer David Shore and "Breaking Bad" creator Vince Gilligan have teamed up for "Battle Creek" which is set to debut on Sunday, March 1 at 10 p.m. The show will take over "CSI's" current timeslot two after the show's Season 15 finale.
"Battle Creek" stars Josh Duhamel and Dean Winters as two police officers with opposing personalities who are forced to learn how to work together, according to TV Line.
In the same week, "CSI: Cyber" will air it's premiere episode on Wednesday, March 4 at 10 p.m. The show, which will take over "Stalker's" current timeslot, stars Patricia Arquette as the head of the FBI's Cyber Crime Division. James Van Der Beek and Bow Wow round up the cast, according to Hollywood Reporter.
"Stalker" will return later in the season.
