Angus T. Jones Slams Two and a Half Men as “Filth,” Urges Viewers “Stop Watching”

1:36 pm, November 26th, 2012

(YouTube)

“Two and a Half Men” star Angus T. Jones calls the show “filth” and urges people not to watch it in a stunning new video that could land him in hot water with his bosses.

Jones makes the remarks in a Christian testimonial recorded on behalf of Forerunner Chronicles.

During the pieced-together interview, the actor discusses his search for a new church, his Bible study, and how he’s using religious practices in his daily life.

But then Jones begins to talk about his job in a way that might not sit well with producers.

Directly addressing the camera, he says, ”If you watch ‘Two and a Half Men,’ please stop watching ‘Two and a Half Men.’”

“I’m on ‘Two and a Half Men,’ and I don’t want to be on it,” continues Jones. “Please stop watching it. Please stop filling your head with filth.”

He adds, “People say it’s just entertainment. Do some research on the effects of television and your brain, and I promise you, you’ll have a decision to make when it comes to television, especially with what you watch.”

Jones then seemingly implies that the Devil works through shows like the one that’s made him exceptionally wealthy over the past 10 years.

The actor says, “Watch out, just watch out… [because] a lot of people don’t like to think about how deceptive the enemy is. He’s been doing this for a lot longer than any of us have been around. So, we can’t play around. There’s no playing around when it comes to eternity.”

There’s been no comment yet from Warner Bros., which produces “Two and a Half Men,” nor from its network CBS.

Check out Jones’ testimonial below — the “Two and a Half Men” comments come at the 7:34 mark.

    I wouldn’t say it’s evil – just poorly written and not at all funny.

    amen

    amen

  • Rose

    Hooray, good for him. It’s not funny how disgustingly portrayed women are on this show and having a child grow up on this crap. I am glad to hear this news.

  • Jaded28

    Well them maybe he should quit the show. What a freaking hypocrite. If you don’t want to be there and it’s against your beliefs then stop going. Stop renegotiating your contract. Typical Bad Christian. Sell out your beliefs for cash. I’m so sick of these people.

  • GeekGamerGirl

    Obviously, he doesn’t have a problem going to work everyday, doing PR, and cashing his at least 6 figure paychecks. If he really thought it was filth he could/would have tried to get out of his contract or quit durning the hiatus they took durning the Sheen drama. I would never judge someone for their beliefs but, I will ALWAYS call someone out on their hypocrisy. You can’t condem something in one breath and then continue to do it in the other.

  • Regina1180

    Oh give me a break. The show is not funny and should have gotten canned a few years ago, but for him to try and make people believe that he really feels this way is a joke. Want to make a point? How about you break your contract, stop collecting “dirty money” and give some of it to charity.

    Isn’t he one if the highest paid kid actors in tv EVER?

  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-chCJzfDpj8&feature=colike ✭MegO-BTB✭

    Your glad to hear him being a hypocrite? He has no problem using his pay cheque. If he really believes what he says, he should quit the show and donate every cent he’s made to a good cause. Other wise he looks like a hypocritical blowhard who bites the hand thats fed him.

  • jimmy

    What an ungreatfull little shit he makes 300 thousand per ep soo this filthy show is paying off well I work at wal-mart o/n i bring home if lucky 542 dollars every two weeks by the time i trim the fat of my pay im lucky if i have a 100 bucks to do me but if i had a job that paid me 300 tho i definitly wouldnt be critizing it i hate people like this so ungreatful

  • Bree

    He should donate all of the money he’s made, if it’s the fruit of evil.

  • Jamie T

    He was a child actor, probably pushed into the show and now he wants out – plain and simple. He’s obligated by contract and is looking for a way out. Also seems like he’s getting a bit too sucked into the religion thing. I personally love two and a half men.

  • ksb517

    I can kind of see your point. He probably didn’t have a lot of control over his life when he first joined the show. I can’t imagine growing up working next to Charlie Sheen. That can’t be super healthy.
    I totally get all of the hypocrite comments though. What is he doing with the $$ is he making from the show. Is it all being donated? I wonder if he can’t get out of his contract & is trying to get fired.

  • rara

    This could be his way to break his contract.

  • D. Martin

    IDK – I’ve read some of your posts and you all have points. He’s still very young and has been on this show since VERY VERY young. I agree with @ksb517:disqus — working around Sheen — especially during his meltdown — could not have been easy. Hypocrite? Jury is still out on that. Again, he’s young. And he’s under contract. And we don’t know — he may have tried to get out of it but couldn’t. Maybe he’s just looking for something to fill the hole in his life. If he’s turning to faith/religion then great. At least he’s not turning to drugs and alcohol.

  • Lake view

    Just another pretentious brat ! If he REALLY believes in what he’s saying he would give back every red cent made from that show , repent and go help the needy. Easy things to say when you are very wealthy !

  • Lucky

    I guess it didn’t matter that this “FILTH” was making him “FILTHY” rich?

  • Rose

    He’s a kid. His parents or agent or somebody sold him onto a dirty-assed show starring a druggie sex fiend with a very sexist agenda. Because a person grows up doesn’t make them two faced. As a matter of fact, even an adult has the right to change their mind or come to their senses if they choose to.

  • Rose

    I don’t get the hypocritical statements whatsoever, unless you were an adult in charge of creating the show. He was a victim. Why should the kid give back money somebody paid him to ‘use’ him, to influence the idiots that watched the show. He should sue. Okay, I jest, but how ridiculous for a bunch of judgmental hypocrites suggesting he’s a hypocrite?

  • Ahem

    Kirk Cameron 2.0?

  • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-chCJzfDpj8&feature=colike ✭MegO-BTB✭

    No what makes it wrong is instead of doing something about it he complains about it during an interview which makes him look ungrateful for what he has. If he truly felt that way there is a better way to go about it, like quitting the show and donating the “dirty” money.

  • Lisa

    I give him credit for standing up for what he believes. But if you really believe it is filth, you need to leave the show. Just saying. . .

  • geez

    wow. i don’t like Two and a half men in the least. It’s not funny and I have no idea how much they pay these poor women who have to kiss the dude that plays this kid’s father. i mean he’s not cute in the least and not funny at all. but apparently it is popular and these actors make a lot of money for 22 minutes of entertainment where they’re not even in every scene. what a douche this kid is! he’s been on this show for years and he has fans that love him on that show and probably just made them feel bad for liking him on that show. if the kid hates it that much write him off. cancel the show. Big Bang Theory is way better plus I haven’t heard any of those actors cause a commotion like this kid and Charlie Sheen. this kid is so ungrateful. i hate it when I read about actors saying they hate the TV show they’re on or a movie they’re in. How about being grateful for the work that others really needed but didn’t get because you just had to audition? I mean it’d be different if the movie or TV show genuinely ruined their careers but the ones I hear it from are still thriving.

  • Be Wobbly Bo

    Wow! Did he study and the Megan Fox School of Public Relations and Job Security?

    What the heck is in the water at that show anyway? First Sheen and his strange and twisted journey, now Angus T Jones and finding God….plus they hired Ashton Kutcher…..Definitely something in the water…..

  • missylalawhite

    I applaud him for standing up for his beliefs, you don’t see much of that in Hollywood. If he really thinks the show is filth, then why doesn’t he just quit? Instead of telling people to stop watching, just quit and then there won’t be anymore ‘Two and a Half Men’.

  • Cassie Fiona

    I’m sure this is a publicity stunt he couldn’t possible be this stupid

  • Catherine

    Contracts can be broken – you just have to pay a financial penalty for it. And it’s not against the Christian religion to forfeit a business contract.

  • Catherine

    You can also break your contract by simply giving notice and not trying to sabotage the show you work on.

  • mm

    It is possible he is having some type of breakdown. Remember Britney Spears? What if someone had stepped in from the very beginning and gotten her some medical help? That was a sad thing to watch. At some point, most people realized she was sick. It is possible this young man is just sick, and needs help.

  • GoneRouge

    I think Angus should give every penny he’s ever made off the show to Sandy victims and then he should go away. As for the typical xtian crap brainwashing, it should be banned from the country, or at least heavily taxed for their propaganda selling BS and profiteering.

  • John

    What does money got to do with anything? Angus didn’t mention money one single time in this video, thus making it irrelevant. Irrelevant because he doesn’t state his opinions because of money, he’s not paying – nor getting paid – to do this interview.

    Another thing. It’s not Jake Harper speaking here. It’s Angus Jones. A human, not a worthless character, like you and me. Isn’t he entitled to his opinions, or is there a limit on how much money you can have before your opinions doesn’t count anymore?

    I couldn’t care less if Angus have/had 1 dollar or 100 million dollars. What I care about is his opinions, and he’s clearly taken a big stand about something he’s grown up with.

    Listen. No one knows more than Angus Jones about what’s going on at Two And A Half Men. The people who work there knows just as much as he do, but not more.

    And for the religion part. That’s his choice, and he’s obviously learned a lot from it, and gotten away from a lot of trouble because of it. I would definitely continue worshiping God if I was him.

  • newlife12

    I just think it’s sad that another young person is falling into the trap of fundamentalism, regardless of the particular religion. However, he’s not such a child. He is 10 years old. His net worth is $15 million and he makes $350,000 per episode. If he hates it, he should quit. A contract can be broken, although there may be financial consequences. It strikes me that he wants to avoid that. Otherwise, put your money where your mouth is. He’s not that much of a kid – he’s 19.

  • slf

    what a jerk! boot his butt off the show. he’s hardly on any more anyway. adios mo fo

  • Alex

    Wow, didn’t see that one coming.

  • Alex

    Was thinking the same thing. Brings back some scary memories, huh?

  • R. McBride

    I’ve never seen the show. Have no idea who this kid is, but I’m thinking he’s not the sharpest knife in the drawer right at the git go.
    Jake, a word of advice… save all your money and get a good education after you get fired from this gig (because you will when your bosses find the right moment) because you can be pretty sure you will nevaaaar get an acting job in any meaningful way evaaaar again.
    Little nitwit.

    Do to Angus T. Jones what they did to Charlie. Kick his a$$ off the set. Don’t bite the hand that feeds you.

  • MIMI

    How dare he, obviously he doesn’t realize how many people will be out of work if and when this show comes to an end. I’m sure he now has a bank account, which has money in it that came from him working on this “filthy ” show. It drives me crazy when people of his age thinks they have acquired a brain, and now they have something to say, whether or not it makes any sense. If he’s so down on this show, go to your bank, withdraw all of the money which you have, and donate it to a charity, because I’m sure you have no need for this ” filthy ” money. You were soooooooo cute and funny, when you were a child, damn shame you had to go and grow up, jerk.
