'Two And A Half Men' adding gay character

Two And A Half Men may be one of TV's highest-rated comedies, yet it's never really been known for having high-brow sensibilities. However, the show is still finding ways to switch up its formula as it moves into its 11th season, particularly now that Angus T. Jones, the titular half-man, is pretty much gone from the series.

The show is reportedly adding a gay character to its lead cast: the long-lost daughter of Charlie Sheen's character, Charlie Harper.

According to E! Online, the character is named Jenny, and is described as a "sexy and gorgeous" 21-year-old gay woman who just moved from New York to Los Angeles. The role has yet to be cast, but the character is expected to debut in the season premiere. She will start out as recurring, but there's potential for Jenny to become a series regular down the line.
