CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler said the ongoing Charlie Sheen domestic case is neither affecting the network nor production of the hit comedy Two and a Half Men.
 
"Right now, we are being very sensitive to the fact this is a very personal and private matter for Charlie, there has been no impact on the network right now," she said Saturday at a press event in Pasadena.
 
"The show is proceeding along its regular production schedule.  I really have to credit [creator] Chuck Lorre ... he runs a wonderful show and right now it is business as usual for us."

Lorre echoed Tassler's sentiments saying, "Charlie's a consummate pro. He shows up and he deliverd.  Last night was one of our strongest episodes and he is just terrific."
