Charlie Sheen: I want a raise

New York - Charlie Sheen says he wants a raise to come back to the TV show Two and a Half Men.

The troubled star appeared on duelling morning show interviews on Monday to continue an attack on the show's network, CBS, and producers of his hit sitcom for shutting down the show because of his off-set behaviour.

Both ABC's Good Morning America and NBC's Today show featured him in their first half hours.

NBC interviewer Jeff Rossen appeared startled when Sheen said he wanted to be paid $3m an episode to return to the show. He's reportedly being paid $1.8m an episode now, one of the highest-paid actors on television.

"You want a raise?" Rossen asked.

Replied Sheen: "Yeah, look what they put me through."
