CBS Renews TWO AND A HALF MEN; Angus T. Jones to Depart

CBS has officially picked up its long-running sitcom Two and a Half Men for an eleventh season.

The network took to twitter today to make the announcement, posting: @CBSTweet: "TwoAndAHalfMen renewed for 2013-2014 season!"

Deadline has confirmed that both Ashton Kutcher and Jon Cryer will return as regulars - but Angus T. Jones will not. The site reports that the young actor may do occasional guest appearances.

The news comes after months of speculation that execs might finally let go of TWO AND A HALF MEN, following the departure of Charlie Sheen and Jones' religious tirade against Chuck Lorre's show.

Two and a Half Men airs Thursday nights at 8:30 PM on CBS.

About TWO AND A HALF MEN:

It's been a year since we saw Walden Schmidt, a lovelorn Internet billionaire, attempt to drown himself in the ocean after his wife kicked him out. He stumbled into the Malibu beach house where tightly-wound chiropractor Alan Harper and his slacker teenage son, Jake, had been living with Alan's brother for the past eight years before his untimely passing. Walden bought the house and invited Alan to remain there, saving Alan from having to move in with his mother. Walden asked Berta, who had been working in the household, to stay as well. Despite his unsuccessful history with women, Alan found himself mentoring Walden. Walden, Alan and Jake adjusted to their new living arrangement and created a surrogate family unit to make each a better man ... or at least try.
