Anyone notice how Martin Sheen's hairstyle was EXACTLY the same as Charlie's on 2 and a half men?

One of my favorite shows of all time! I'm on Volume 2 of Season 1 right now; ordering Season 2 soon. I treat myself to an episode every Saturday morning with my coffee, and I really look forward to that! Sorry to hear of Michael Douglas's health problems lately.

I grew up in the 80s, but this show is being aired on our local KOFY Cable 13 channel, which was our local WB affiliate before going back to local/independent. I also didn't know that Michael Douglas had left the show and that his character was killed off in the "Return to the Streets of SF" TV-Movie in the early 90s...

,,he's still alive, but notacably older, he's going to do another American Express commercial & Michael Douglas is going to make another sex thriller movie with his wife Catherine Zetta Jones.
