Good Day:

I am wondering if any of the good members of the Forum are somewhat familiar with the show Two and a Half Men? Someone told me that the show is quite comical, but then someone else told me that it could be somewhat risque. I do believe that we should be somewhat careful about what we watch.

Take care and enjoy the weekend.

Both assessments of the show are correct.

I agree. It is risque, and it is often hilarious.

I've watched it a few times but lost interest.
I don't consider it risque since risque means "suggestive of sexual impropriety; bordering on the indelicate".
The show does not suggest or border on sexual topics, it's quite clear and open about topics such as promiscuity, fornication, oral sex, alcohol and drug abuse, all of which are presented as comical and normal behavior.

I agree. It is both.

It is still one of my favorite shows, though. Not quite as high as Grey or the Housewives, but I do try to watch it Monday nights and it does take my thumb off the remote when I happen to find some of the re-runs.

But then again, I think I have a very high tolerance for what comes out of the TV.

Shalom,
Memo
