Sheen’s Korner streaming live at 3am

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/7388095

It’s hard to tell what’s going to happen, but Twitter sensation Charlie Sheen just tweeted that he will appear live tonight at 10 Eastern (7 Pacific) on Ustream, an online video channel.

He didn’t indicate what else would be going on during his Ustream netcast, where he’ll probably be cavorting and horsing around on a program he’s calling Sheen’s Korner.

Here’s Sheen’s tweet:

WORLD.. live 7:00p pacific time..! Tune in, turn on… Its #TigerBlood tonight!!

There’s little information about this upcoming appearance, so for now, we’ll just have to speculate and guess what on earth he’s going to do with this live video stream. According to Sheen’s latest tweets, he’s settled a legal dispute with his wife with a verbal agreement, so maybe now it’s time for him to celebrate.

Did Charlie Sheen go from winning to losing with 'Sheen's Korner'?

The spiralling actor rambles for an hour to a live online audience of more than 100,000 viewers... many of whom were not impressed

Best Opinion: Gawker, SF Chronicle, NY Daily News

His hit sitcom canceled, Charlie Sheen took to the internet Saturday night, streaming the inaugural episode of his new production, "Sheen's Korner." As many as 113,251 people tuned into the Ustream program, which was "closely akin to a local access cable show," says The Hollywood Reporter. Sheen promised that if the audience held up, he might turn it into a daily program. (Watch a clip below.) Alas, most of the reviews were not kind: Sad, boring, pointless. Will this finally end our fascination with Sheen's televised meltdown?

Sheen jumped the shark: The best part about Sheen's "horrendous" and "embarrassing" online-streaming experiment is that "thanks to Ustream's viewer display count, you could see people getting sick of Sheen in real time," says Adrien Chen at Gawker. And you can see why: "It was so boring!" So thankfully, "barring some insane new development," this "marks the beginning of the end of our national obsession with Sheen's breakdown."

"100,000 people watched Charlie Sheen's awful webcast"

His audience is growing: As Sheen's tagline says, "you're either in Sheen's Korner or you're with the trolls," says Ellen Lee at the San Francisco Chronicle. And while there may be quite a few trolls, Sheen's audience shows no signs of abating. "@CharlieSheen already has a following of two million on Twitter," a number that grew so fast it set a Guinness record. "Can we say #winning?"

"Charlie Sheen joins Ustream"

And Sheen isn't going anywhere: The "out-of-control actor" at least has the "sliver of sense" to know that his "bizarro blabbering webcast... was not his best performance," says Lukas I. Alpert at the New York Daily News. But it won't be his last. After tweeting that his show was "treasonous to the movement," he announced a "video solution," which means we can look forward to more "forgettable" webcasts full of "fart noises and endless references to 'winning.'"

Actor Charlie Sheen has been fired from the hit US sitcom Two and a Half Men by Warner Bros Television.

The studio said it had acted after "careful consideration". The news comes amid a frenzy of US media reports on Sheen's controversial personal life.

No decision has been made on the future of the television series, a spokesman for Warner Bros said on Monday.

Sheen, the highest paid actor on US television, has also appeared in films including Wall Street and Platoon.

Production of Two and a Half Men had been suspended since late January after Sheen, the son of Hollywood actor Martin Sheen, entered rehabilitation for reported drug and alcohol abuse.

The sitcom is the most popular series on the CBS television network.

"After careful consideration, Warner Bros Television has terminated Charlie Sheen's services on Two and a Half Men effective immediately," Warner Bros said in a statement.

When asked by the Associated Press news agency if he would sue, Sheen replied via text message with the word "big". He added his next move would be a "big one".

"This is very good news," he said in a statement obtained by celebrity website TMZ.

'Rambling' interviews

Production on Two and a Half Men was officially halted in late February after the 45-year-old actor insulted Chuck Lorre, the show's producer and co-creator, in several interviews.

The actor had a contract with Warner Bros that ran to the end of the 2012 television season, providing him with $2m (£1.2m) per episode.

Sheen said last week he was being paid too little and demanded an increase to $3m per show.

Over the past few weeks, Sheen has given a series of often angry, rambling media interviews. He insists he is drug-free after undergoing rehabilitation in January.

The actor was taken to hospital in Los Angeles with severe abdominal pains before entering rehab.

He filed for divorce from his third wife, Brooke Mueller, in November, citing irreconcilable differences.

Internship opportunity

Meanwhile, Sheen posted a message on the micro-blogging website Twitter early on Monday, searching for an intern to assist him in his work.

The tweet, posted prior to Warner Bros's announcement, was a paid-for endorsement from the website Internships.com.

"I'm looking to hire a winning INTERN with TigerBlood," Sheen's message said.

The actor has used social media websites to comment on the dispute between himself and the show's producers.

It took him roughly 24 hours to reach 1 million followers on Twitter - a record for the website.
