"Extra" host Mario Lopez met up with actor Charlie Sheen to talk about his role as a therapist in the new FX series "Anger Management," working with his ex-wife, and his summer plans with his kids.
When Mario asked the former "Two and a Half" men star how his character would treat Mel Gibson's rage issues, Sheen joked, "The session would start with 6 or 8 shots of Macallan's whiskey… I don't know. It's hard to comment on something when you don't really know all the details, we weren't really there."
He added, "I'm not defending Mr. Gibson, I'm merely saying it's not always at face value, what we hear as a consuming public, you know."
After the series wraps, Sheen said his summer plans are to "hang out at soccer games, t-ball games and barbecue… just be a dad, you know. I haven't been able to do that for a long time."
"Anger Management" premieres June 28 on FX.

It is absolutely disgusting that Charlie Sheen got another show and it's on a topic that is extremely important. I worked in a domestic violence court and anger management is a very important tool used by the courts to give the defendants another chance. men who abuse their wives and children rarely deserve another chance but if they have a cagey lawyer they can stay out of jail. Anger management is usually 38 weeks of classes where attendance is taken and participation is required. making sheen the therapist is a slap in the face to those who are sincerely trying to turn their lives around. This is a genuine problem and making fun of it helps no one !!!!!Hopefully it will exit soon.
Charlie, I'm so glad you're back. I loved you on Two and Half Men, wish you were back. It's not the same without you.
