YouTube Monday : Two and a Half Men | The Best of Berta


Late in her life, as dementia lowered her inhibitions, my mother found sitcoms entertaining, the rauncher and more tasteless the better.  I had never watched "Two and Half Men" until I spent time with her, Thanks Mom, these are funny. (My father cringed, went in the other room, played solitaire on the computer and listened to faux news on TV.)

  1. Wow! My mother watched the show once and thought it was “filth.” An interesting side effect of your mother‘s dementia.

  4. Yes, an appalling show -- appallingly funny! It was a guilty pleasure of mine too.

  5. I watched this show for a couple of years until Charlie Sheen started getting on my nerves. I watched for Holland Taylor and Conchata Farrell. They brighten up anything they're apart of.

  6. Funny how dementia can crush some inhibitions and turn around taste.

  7. I hated what little I saw of it, but I did love Berta (and the actress who played her.)
