Charlie Sheen Back at Work, Gets Ratings Bump

Charlieโ€™s sheen remains intact for now.

โ€œTwo and a Half Menโ€ reportedly earned a bump in the ratings Monday night, amid a week of swirling rumors and revelations surrounding star Charlie Sheenโ€™s personal life.

On the same day Sheen and wife Brooke Mueller filed for divorce, โ€œMenโ€ scored 13.6 million viewers, a seven percent boost, and beat the competition among adults in the prized 18-to-49-year old demo, according to The Hollywood Reporter and E! News.

The eyeball bonanza comes nearly a week after law enforcement sources told NBCNewYork the apparently inebriated actor tore apart his swanky Manhattan hotel room while parading in the buff, as a woman later identified as a porn star hid in the bathroom.

Sheen was briefly hospitalized after the meltdown for what his publicist later dismissed as the result of โ€œan adverse allergic reaction to some medication.โ€

Despite the weekโ€™s drama, the Hollywood bad boy arrived for his day job as scheduled on Tuesday.

"We have resumed normally this week," a โ€œMenโ€ rep told People mag. "The show was on hiatus last week and the entire cast is back on set today."

Ahh, normalcy.
