‘Two and a Half Men’ preview: Ashton Kutcher, Jon Cryer sing and dance
“Two and a Half Men” have really stepped up their game the past few episodes as we have really been loving the Walden/Kate romance angle. Walden has always been a guy with a lot of heart, so it’s nice to see him finally finding love, but because of the giant lie he concocted to land Kate (being a normal guy with no money) the stress is starting to get to him and he’s not exactly sure how much longer he’ll be able to continue living this double life.
In a new preview for the next new episode of “Two and a Half Men” we have learned that there will be a singing and dancing number about how Walden is a jerk for lying to Kate about who he really is. A lot of shows have added singing and dancing numbers to their episodes this season – even shows like “American Horror Story: Asylum” had Jessica Lange singing “The Name Game” with a bunch of patients in the asylum dancing around, so it seems to be fairly common right now to break the monotony of a lot of shows with a song and dance number.
When you think of Jon Cryer and Ashton Kutcher you don’t really think “singers” and they don’t think of themselves as such either, so when it came time to lay down the vocals for the song, they both felt like a fish out of water. Cryer said: “You know I’m not used to it, I’m not one of the kids from “Glee”. You know they just hop into the studio and lay down some tracks and get out of there and that’s not me.” Kutcher agreed with Cryer, saying: “It’s hard to listen to your own voice, ever, but singing it’s even harder.”
If you just can’t wait to hear Cryer and Kutcher singing then be sure to check out the video below for a sneak peek of “Two and a Half Men’s” upcoming musical number.

The only thing I can think of… is something I heard years ago, and seems to be relatively true: “When a show starts doing a musical in amidst its regular episodes after several successful years, it’s usually because their ratings are starting to sink and then shortly thereafter the musical, they’re sunk.” (ie. “Moonlighting”)
