Charlie Sheen Done With TV After 'Anger Management'?

Charlie Sheen Anger Management He's hardly a TV veteran, better known for big-screen hits like "Platoon", "Wall Street" and "Major League" - but Charlie Sheen claims his latest endeavor could mark his short small-screen run's end.

In a perfect world, Sheen told Access Hollywood, his forthcoming FX comedy "Anger Management" would ultimately be a hit "swan song" that caps his television endeavors after it premieres Jan. 28. These days, it's spending more and more time with his five children - including three-year-old twins Bob and Max - that tops his wish list.

"[Bob and Max are] doing great and I have three girls as well, Cassandra and Sam and Lola. That's why I'm excited about this show possibly being my swan song," Sheen said. "Then I can just leave that behind and just be a full-time dad."

Seemingly more important than anything else weighing upon Sheen is that he "can't have what happened with ['Two And A Half Men] be [his] legacy." Sheen was fired from the show in spring 2011 amid reports that his relapses into drugs and partying made him an unreliable on-set cancer. The ensuing summer, he ruled tabloid headlines as he entered into a wrongful termination suit against "Two And A Half Men" creator Chuck Lorre and Warner Bros. By fall, he appeared conciliatory at the Prime Time Emmy Awards and ready to move on from his legacy with the CBS hit.

"I'm not saying I'm done forever," Sheen said. "I mean, I [just gotta] take some time off, and do some movies or more TV. I don't know, I don't really have a plan."

For the colorful once self-proclaimed "warlock" who made "tiger blood" and "winning" Interwebz-Hall-of-Fame memes, it's an admitted "trip" playing a therapist in the FX comedy, which has reportedly already shot two episodes. So much so, that though he isn't angry that an upcoming "Two And A Half Men" episode features Kathy Bates playing the after-life version of his deceased Charlie Harper character, though he does acknowledge it's a none-too-subtle jack at himself.

"I don't know the storyline. I don't get the scripts anymore . . . I just think a certain someone is just trying to continue to insult me and not focus on the writing," Sheen said. "I was honored they hired her. She's a genius, and a family friend . . . WHen I read 'Misery', I though, 'There's no one alive to play this. There's no one alive.' And then, when I saw it, I went, 'Except her.' I mean, wow. That's one of the great performances of all time."
