Los Angeles:
The Two and a Half Men crew say they miss Charlie Sheen's jokes on the set of the sitcom.
The production team behind the sitcom on which Ashton Kutcher replaced Sheen after his hard partying lifestyle led to him being fired from the show, miss the way the actor used to joke around with them on set.
"Ashton is nice and he tries to do things to get us to like him more and more, but he kind of feels like a step dad. He might be the best thing for the family, but everyone misses their 'original dad,' Charlie," a source said.
"With Charlie, we knew we could push his buttons and joke around about his personal life all the time. Ashton is all business and doesn't like to joke around with the guys about his life. It's off limits," the source added.
Although the cast and crew are very happy with the way the ninth series of the show is going with Kutcher in the lead role, they feel Sheen was better at standing up to show co-creator Chuck Lorre for them.
"Chuck isn't the easiest guy to work with and Charlie could handle him in a way where the crew wouldn't get the brunt of it. But Ashton and Chuck are super friendly with each other, so crossing Ashton is like crossing Chuck," the source added.
