Ashton Kutcher’s ‘Two and a Half Men’ Automated Super Trailer
The two-story, 53-foot long "trailer" features AMX automation, seven 60-inch 3D plasma TVs, 360-degree, 24/7 security and costs $8,750 per week.
Ashton Kutcher certainly is "winning" on the set of the CBS sitcom "Two and a Half Men".
Apparently the $700,000-per-episode salary Kutcher will pull in for replacing Charlie Sheen isn't enough to woo him away from Demi Moore. Nope, the fine folks at CBS are shelling out $8,750 per week (and they said they couldn't afford Sheen) for Kutcher's ridiculous two-story, 53-foot-long, 30-ton trailer (called the Heat) that he'll hang out in between scenes.
The trailer boasts 1,200 square feet of space, including a master bedroom, full kitchen and lobbies (yes, lobbies), all done up in leather, oak wood and marble. And there's side sections and a second floor that hydraulically emerge from the main body of the vehicle.
We haven't even mentioned the electronics. But, in case you're wondering, there's seven 60-inch 3D plasma TVs, 360-degree, 24/7 video surveillance and security, and an AMX wireless touchscreen that controls heat, air conditioning, brightness, blinds and a conference area. And when the doorbell rings, the stereo system and TV volume drops, with the image of the visitor being projected on the screens inside.

Again, this is a trailer, folks.
Judging by all the pampering, CBS execs must have full confidence Kutcher will be able to carry the show in Sheen's absence. But many loyal fans of "Two and a Half Men" like me think the show is in big trouble without Sheen. Hopefully CBS has insurance on this trailer.
What's worse, Kutcher's trailer or P. Diddy's iPad-controlled superyacht?

This show will fail without Sheen, they just don’t know it. Kutcher is not suited for this role. Alas, the need for this sort of trailer is beyond believable as is the payment he receives for each episode….
