They set it up, with Rose and the closed coffin, for the entire season to be wiped away, no problem. Maybe Charlie and Rose concocted an insurance scheme, which fucks his mother in some odd way. Hehe, that came out wrong. But it's setup so Charlie can walk right back in and go 'You had a funeral for me? Who showed up?' etc etc. It's still salvageable, I'm saying.
But this first episode was really about plot points, nothing else. Answering tough plot questions like:
What do we do with the house? Can't give it to Alan cause then he'd be rich...so we'll make it so it has 3 mortgages....we need Kutcher to be rich so he can quickly come in abd buy the place (we need that set)...the whole first episode was how to cleverly (they hoped) fix the plot problems created by Sheen's eparture. The real test for this show will be how they develop the Kutcher character, and the plots they come up with moving forward.
I am not confidant.
