I always thought Jon Cryer never got the credit he deserved while on this show. Not that Charlie Sheen wasn’t great on the show either but playing the “straight man” is a much more difficult task.
Jon Cryer as usual is brilliant. Not only does he act so well he is also the director of 2 & 1/2 Men. A great talent ....hope Charlie sorts it out with CBS soon as I will miss seeing Jon and the rest of this fantastic cast! ...yes, including you Charlie! :)
In another episode, Alan: Charlie do you know how hard it is to maintain a working relationship when you don't have a place of your own? Charlie: Alan if I didn't have a place of my own, I'd be worried about something more than a relationship, you know like GETTING A PLACE OF MY OWN. Alan: So what are you saying, I'm not entitled to a relationship? Charlie: No, I'm saying if you can't afford dog food, you don't get a dog. Alan: Oh great, so I'm supposed to be alone for the rest of my life? Charlie: No! You're supposed to get your own fricking place! Alan: Just cause you keep saying it, doesn't mean it's gonna happen! Charlie is right. Alan should focus more on getting his own place than dating.
@SeanGrenadR Yes, he is cheap. He doesn't have much money and no place of his own. Two things you should not be without if you're dating. Maybe one of them but not both. In fact, Melissa once broke up with him for insisting they do it in his car because he didn't want to cough up $69 for a motel room and plus he didn't go far because he didn't want to waste gas and of course because he has no place to of his own. Charlie told Alan to focus more on getting his own place than on dating. Charlie gave Alan some words of wisdom, "If you can't afford dog food, you don't get a dog."
So what's Alan going to do if these Jewish girls or their families start asking Alan Jewish questions? They should've had a scene where Alan comes home with a black eye and tells Charlie, "Word of advice, Jewish girls get really pissed at dates who lie about being Jewish." And Charlie asks, "How'd she figure out you weren't Jewish?" and Alan says, "She said that she liked my yamaka and I told her, 'Thanks, it was Christmas present.'"
Tell that to the people who came up with the whole Walden series, especially the guy who wouldn't let Charlie appear in the finale because he was holding a grudge.
I really love this show when Charlie was still there... the script was better, and more importantly, Alan was still a smart struggling chiropractor, not as dumb as he became as the seasons went by. Too bad they made Jake become way too dumb
@@emilstalzer8553 It's precisely my comment. Most people stay with the denomination and its doctrines. Few, like me, bother to find out how the others live. As for Catholic, one should know that once John Knox took over, Scotland outlawed the Mass as a capital offense, during the reign of Mary Stuart. It is the main reason that we have no official church in the United States, nor a religious test for office.
@@BuddyNovinski Yes buddy, the Harper family is Ulster-Scot, making them Protestant (probably Presbyterian). And for eliminating any "pathological" doubt about the subject, there's an episode where Alan visits a Catholic Church intending to confess and tells the Father that he (Alan) is NOT Catholic.
Is that the Americanized version of our German idiom 'Oh weh!', Jewish immigrants brought to the States? 😄 Literally, that would means 'Oh, pain!' I think the English version is 'Alack!'.
How do you live with yourself? How come you awake up in the morning and not run a straight razor across your throat?? Alan: first of all I don't own a straight razor!!! 😅😅😅
What if Jon Cryer left 2 and a 1/2 men and acted as charlies brother on anger management who just got kid out of his wife's house( acculty his), and his 12 year old daughter comes to live with them on the weekend.
this scene showcases Jon Cryer's acting skills, he totally nails it
GIVE THE MAN THE DAMN EMMY!!
Jon Cryer is too good
He has 2
He kept the show alive for some time after charlie left
@@shaurya3141 no he did not. The writers made his character too weird
He DID keep the show alive … incredible actor
@@sprashereweird asf.
“That’s a very unfair characteristic, but not entirely inaccurate.” At least Alan’s honest
😂😂😂
I love how Alan isn’t offended by any insult that’s thrown at him because he couldn’t agree more with what’s being said
This is Alan's scene.. killed it!!
Remember that gay party?
"Judith that's terrible, you must be devastated" 😈
Even without the costume, Alan is a walking Jew stereotype.
Loool so true
He is a Methodist , but man , he could pass for one .
Alan never said he liked baby foreskins
Stereotypes are true
So very true. Funny how he turned out to be like this being Charlie's brother and Evelyn's son.
Love how he has the proper merchant posture and everything
My Jewish grandparents call me boy chick
He’s looks VERY Jewish. I am a Jew and he’s exactly like my grandpa
@Amira Djiar its called ACTING!🙂

"Sit boychik" XD
That's a very unfair characterization, but not entirely inaccurate
No because it's ENTIRELY ACCURATE! XD
Who knows more about not satisfying a woman than my brother, Alan?🤣🤣🤣
I’m Jewish it’s 100% accurate trust me
My favorite line of the entire show
@@andrewcundill3660 No, that was a line from the show. It's in the video.
One of the best. John Cryer is a talent.

Jon is gay?
@@wrightchance5891 straight man means voice of reason in this circumstance
@@Honorbound43voice of reason? How much whipped feminist are you? Ask any female who watched this show, Alan is creepy and scary.
Alan Harpowitz
I see what you did there lol
You are genius
Nice man
Charlie Alcoholowitz
harpsberg or harpstein or harpsbaum
Love the-matter-of-fact "You gotta get past that" advice imparted by Alan.
Jon Cryer as usual is brilliant. Not only does he act so well he is also the director of 2 & 1/2 Men. A great talent ....hope Charlie sorts it out with CBS soon as I will miss seeing Jon and the rest of this fantastic cast! ...yes, including you Charlie! :)
Gosh , so this was happening 11years ago. It doesn't seem like it , huh.
Hey, it's been 12 years, what you been upto?
This show relaxes me so much.
Same here 😃
"First of all i don't even own a straight razor"! Love how he was actually thinking that was an option for him!😂😂🤣
"You gotta get pass that", I love it
Jewdith
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Underrated comment
(8 years later) Well, actually the name Judith has that same origin!
I loved this season where charlie was mostly engaged and alan was single. There were a lot of brother moments like this one.
Alan is the best thing that happened to this show
I agree his my favourite in the show
100%!!!
Alan has funny scenes. The ones that are not funny are the ones were Judith humilliates him like if that was funny.
No
Let be realistic Alan is the voice of reason in this show
This is honest to life in so many ways. People who object to it for the wrong reasons are pretentious.
Alan Harper completely nailed it!!
In another episode,

Charlie is right. Alan should focus more on getting his own place than dating.
@33kaus holokaust Sadly not just the US. Divorce courts across the world always favour women.
This scene is so awesome, haha. Love Alan.
😂 one of the best scenes in show 😂
Alan's best performance

heh 69, he shoulda done it for the irony
¨Meshuga¨ Lol! Allan was great here
“I’m pretty sure our people are scotch Irish!”
I think that’s the blood alcohol content, Charlie!
Hard to believe Alan would be willing to pay for Red Lobster.
he would forget his wallet
One of the best episodes of the series.))))
So what's Alan going to do if these Jewish girls or their families start asking Alan Jewish questions?
They should've had a scene where Alan comes home with a black eye and tells Charlie, "Word of advice, Jewish girls get really pissed at dates who lie about being Jewish." And Charlie asks, "How'd she figure out you weren't Jewish?" and Alan says, "She said that she liked my yamaka and I told her, 'Thanks, it was Christmas present.'"
Alexander Edward Pytko - Didn't you watch the whole video? Alan has done his research beforehand. He may be a loser; but he is definetly not stupid.
Alexander Edward Pytko do everyone a favor and don't write for sitcoms.
Tell that to the people who came up with the whole Walden series, especially the guy who wouldn't let Charlie appear in the finale because he was holding a grudge.
Alexander Edward Pytko I laughed
What if he’s not circumcised? That would definitely give it away.
I really love this show when Charlie was still there... the script was better, and more importantly, Alan was still a smart struggling chiropractor, not as dumb as he became as the seasons went by. Too bad they made Jake become way too dumb
The best scene ever on TV.
Hahahaha Meshuggah means crazy, and boychik, means little boy.
+שירן ניאזוב meshuggah is also great metal band :)
PeRogiTra only reason im here
No one cares
Djent
I thought meshuggah was a german Word.
Seems Like it's jewish.
Doesen't really Matter though WE took in a Lot of words from Others.
thats a very unfair characterization, but not entirely inaccurate lol
Such great writing I miss it
Hard to believe Alan would spend enough money to eat at Red Lobster.
This is the scene that actually had me laughing out loud.
. . . and I don’t do that. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I think it's Season 7 Episode 9, "Captain Terry's Spray-On Hair" :)
Yeah with a monkey on the bottle!!
Alan could pass for Jewish 💯😂
Damn this show was gold ❤
I miss this show too much!
The Alan is immunized against all dangers. But call him divorced, and you'll be astonished at how he recoils
Damn that's hella funny
This is a very cute scene! Scotch-Irish? Does that make them Presbyterian?
I guess Catholic would be more accurate, since Scottish used to be Catholic (some still are) and the Irish are an Epitome of being Catholic
Scotch-Irish meaning is that Scottish settlers move to Ireland back in the Middle Ages in Northern Ireland mostly they are presbyterians.

This episode is really funny and Alan makes me laugh 😆
@Rebecca Ross. You are so so right
This episode taught me so much about Jewish stererotype.
@ Keith Lebrun. You are so so right my love.
Alan does look better with the jewish costum
3 mins of gold
0:36 Sit boychik! 😂
Lmfao that last part😂😂
“first of all, i don’t own a straight razor…”
Alan's best scene😂😂😂😂
lol while alan was fiddling with the hat, a hat advert popped up
Red Lobster on a Jdate?
LMAO 😄😄😄
Alan Harpstein.
Halan Ben Harpi
Best scene ever!
Man I missed this show
Oy, Vey! that's my reaction when seeing what's going on in Two and a Half Men now
Two birds with one stone😂😂😂
Life lessons like these are legendary 🤣🤣
Alan is the G. O. A. T.
Listen and learn
Thank God Alan didn't try to do this in pre 1945 Germany.
Has anyone noticed Alan saying too many “Ow” haha
Allen is the best actor but everyone says Charlie
oy vey
Is that the Americanized version of our German idiom 'Oh weh!', Jewish immigrants brought to the States? 😄 Literally, that would means 'Oh, pain!' I think the English version is 'Alack!'.
@@NiVi192 what about "oy gevalt!"
Couldn't stop thinking about the rabbi on Seinfeld. Pretty similar
Alan Red Lobster? HES CHEAP NO WAY
This scene cracked me up, Alan was really funny 😂
Sit boychik 😂😂
How do you live with yourself? How come you awake up in the morning and not run a straight razor across your throat??
Alan: first of all I don't own a straight razor!!! 😅😅😅
What does Alan say after the red lobster dialogue? Meshuggah? What does it mean?
Means crazy
Oyyyyy.........vheeeeyyyyyyy 😂😂😂😂😂
Not an easy scene .... Jon just makes it look easy.... he's brilliant
@aatishay -- "Meshuggah" means "crazy" ... And Alan is such a shmendrik! LOL☺
1:54 Pause
Alan looks totally like a jew.
1:54 for y'all
Reminds me of the rabbi on Seinfeld.
Actually;
RAYOVAC brand is pretty popular with shiksas.
What if Jon Cryer left 2 and a 1/2 men and acted as charlies brother on anger management who just got kid out of his wife's house( acculty his), and his 12 year old daughter comes to live with them on the weekend.
Papa can you hear me 😄
In Entourage, Ari gold used to eat the lobster all the time in his client meetings..?!
Don't think Ari was religious
Google and voila, instant Jewish culture. Love it!
Meshuggah, I knew it
Meshuggah xD
which episode is this ?
Posting this on IFunny.
You can really tell that Charlie Sheen didn't want to say "Oy vey"!
Funny thing is that Jon Cryer is Jewish, and on the show Jewdith is too
No he’s not he’s Methodist!
Am I the only one who thought of Jason Biggs in American pie when he asks his on screen dad about sex??
Well done
Great way to get a girl to break up with you is to tell her she keeps farting on her sleep she will be so embarrassed she will stop seeing you
HOW DO YOU LIVE WITH YOURSELF LMAO
Desperate times....desperate measures... aaaaaah..
Lol first of all. I don't own a straight razor
Are there anymore segments on youTube from this episode?
Look up "alan harper spray-on hair"
I always thought Jon Cryer was Jewish, very surprised when I found out he wasn't. He's like the male Valerie Harper.
what episode was that?
They don't make shows like this anymore
