"You're always sure that another shoe's gonna drop and this is all gonna go away..." 




A teenage icon turned struggling actor to Emmy Award-winning sitcom star, Jon Cryer has seen every side of Hollywood and made an impact most couldn't even dream of. Jon tells Dan what it was like growing up in a showbiz family and how he experienced fame early in his career with "Pretty in Pink", being associated with the Brat Pack, and performing on Broadway as a teenager. He also explains the unique disappointment that comes with working on a failing TV show or a movie that bombs... to the then life-altering popularity of "Two and a Half Men", how he's moved on since it ended, and why he's still not ready to reconnect with Charlie Sheen.
