Rant of the Week - Is this simply Over the Top and Greedy

I've not done a "Rant of the Week" for a while but this just made me angry when I got up this morning.

Thanks to darq who sent this in to us today.

When I read it I was like WTF! In these hard economic times when people are struggling to make ends meet this simply pissed me off. There is never a need for something like this. Over $8,000 a week for a trailer! That's more than most people will earn in a month. Remember that he is also earning nearly 1 Million dollars per Episode!

This has made up my mind not to watch Two and Half Men now and I hope they cancel it.

Am I wrong? Vote in the Poll and let me know what you think in the comments.




Two and a half men? You could fit a dozen times that many people into Ashton Kutcher's enormous, luxurious trailer that he'll reportedly use while filming CBS's Two and a Half Men this season.

More than 1,000 square feet? Check. Seven 60-inch, 3-D plasma TVs? Check. Two bathrooms, a kitchen with granite counter tops, a conference area? Check, check, check.

And the network will be writing some serious checks, too – $8,750 a week – to rent the palace-on-wheels for its new star, 33, who replaces Charlie Sheen on the top-rated sitcom, reports London's Daily Mail.

The trailer, which recalls the double-decker monstrosity that Will Smith parked in New York while filming Men in Black III, has side sections and a second floor that hydraulically emerge from vehicle's main body, as well as a wireless touch screen that controls heat, air conditioning, brightness and the blinds.

If the rent seems exorbitant, check out the purchase price for one of these babies – upwards of $2 million.

Of course, if Kutcher grows fond of his new digs, he may be well positioned to spring for one. His salary for Two and a Half Men will reportedly approach $1 million per episode for 26 episodes.
