Jones, the series was about a hedonistic jingle writer, Charlie Harper, his uptight brother, Alan, and Alan's mischievous son, Jake.

Ashton Kutcher was hired as Walden Schmidt, a billionaire who buys Charlie's house after his death.

I cannot believe Alan got upset over charlie owing him $38 when Charlie had let him live rent free in his house. Alan had some nerves

[@JuanJoseEstigarribia1]

Remember, Alan was nearly a poor person, and had his money practically counted for the month. I don't say that is okay at all but idk, being in that position is horrible

[@maxxymrice6200]

5:30 Alan stealing gas from Charlie over 37 dollars is one of his most insufferable moments and the worst example of him being cheap.

[@batmanrocks6727]

Yeah, but Alan lost thousands of dollars because Charlie was sleeping with Alan's divorce lawayer

[@O.G.H.]

Well, being dirt-poor, Alan basically has no means left to be generous. So being cheap is not a choice, its a survival condition. There is an episode, where he earns better by chiropracting a wealthy customer, and he takes care of the check and gives Jake extra money for stuff, which shows he is generous when he can afford it.

[@maxxymrice6200]

@@O.G.H. He was poor because of childcare and alimony, which he stopped paying in season 4 and Charlie continued to let him live rent-free and pay for all his meals. Eventually, his cheapness became insufferable.

Yeah, Alan should have just gone to Evelyn for help at some point. It's implied she knows a lot of rich and powerful people in Hollywood who could have helped him out with the divorce.

there is a reason why she got tired of alan as she once said his need of constant control and his cheapness annoyed her so much.

“I’m not cheap, I’m broke. There’s a difference” - Alan Harper

[@EagleOneM1953]

What about the concept of alimony is unclear to you? You don't get to keep any of it. It may be a few thousand dollars per month, plus the costs of rent and running his office with a receptionist, even one at minimum wage... it all adds up fast...

[@legendaryjimbob7685]

@@EagleOneM1953 What rent? His literally leeching off Charlie, and never pays rent. Yeah he did "try" to start paying rent to get more rights in the house, but it was mentioned on the show that he did so, like once or twice over the several years of living there

[@patthonsirilim5739]

maybe 50k a year in alimony might have somthing to do with him living pay check to paycheck.

[@melanieparker]

I would've just walked into the movie. No way is that cheap snot taking advantage of me.

[@virtualdark2295]

That episode is when I got mad at Alan. Until it was funny when Charlie found the hidden stash of money.

[@EagleOneM1953]

Few people may have noticed but Jon Cryer performed his own stunts throughout the whole series. I remember the one where he gets tased and is contorting on the hallway floor, the other one where he dives for the corner after the girl he's breaking up with flips open her lighter and he thinks it's a gun and here how he jumps on the seat's backrest and falls backwards. He could have hit his head on the edge of the stone step behind him or the table on it... Much underrated actor who in my opinion was a great part of the success of the series... Brilliant how he played the scene with the lighter and adjusting his book.....

[@JackMcLeodJr]

Agree, Jon Cryer is very underappreciated overall. The only reason I continued to watch it after Charlie left was because of him. An excellent comic actor. It wouldn't have worked if anybody else had been cast as Alan. Great chemistry with Charlie.

[@jonathanpretty5031]

Cryer is hilarious

[@mattmojo105]

I think you can tell you kind of donations too though. (Maybe I'm wrong. ( But still a great actor nonetheless.

[@Rj-ij6ko]

I still think Alan’s cheapest moment was when he was having a heart attack he still managed to crawl to pick up the 100$ Walden dropped

[@krystalvideos]

I find Alan's constant mooching sometimes a bit amusing due to how elaborate he can be, but this one scene 4:12 makes me always feel unspeakable rage towards him as a character, given how much Charlie pays for and has up til that point and he tries to squeeze more money out of Charlie. He should of given it without a whisper of a complaint. I rarely swear but I swear up a storm during this scene. I wish Charlie set him on fire, but gaged him first so we don't have to hear his high pitch yelling.

[@rickysan6772]

it’s not 50.000 but 5.000 dollars

[@alexanderpytko5394]

Yeah, it was $5,000 in dollar bills. Alan said that whenever someone in his office paid in cash, he puts it away for when he's an old man because he doesn't think he's going to be able to depend on Jake to take care of him when he's an old man.

I certainly blame her. She was married to the guy, had a son with him, and was with him for years yet she never thought for a second that Alan might need therapy, even though he and Charlie were extremely vocal about how their mother ruined their lives. Nope, instead she painted him out to be some buggy man that ruined her life.

Jake was a great actor, he helped the show. Until...Eldrige and the dummy.

[@hydrangeas_lover]

I feel like they dumbed him down literally bc the character he use to be wasn't one dimensional and to continue the show with Walden would not create the same chemistry he had with Charlie. Walden is a pretty boring character with no real story. Alan, Charlie and Jake are family. With Walden Jake was a byproduct of Alan remaining. It's sad unfortunately. I always felt like I was watching 2 shows when Walden came on.

Everything Rick said about Jerry in "The Whirly Dirly Conspiracy" is true for Alan. "You act like prey, but you're a predator! You use pity to lure in your victims! That's how you survive! I survive because I know everything. That snake survives because children wander off, and you survive because people think "Oh, this poor piece of sh*t, he never gets a break. I can't stand the deafening silent wails of his wilting soul. I'll guess I'll hire him, or marry him."

Chelsea, if you think taking care of Alan is an obligation, let's see how fun you think it is.

[@eternallucifer7709]

That scene was the show showing how unbelievably fucked up their family was and that Alan was treated as a punching bag by Charlie and his mother, and what you took away from it is that Alan is a pest?
