‘Two and a Half Men’ Hitting Free Streaming for the First Time via Deal With Pluto TV (EXCLUSIVE)

“Two and a Half Men” is set to hit free streaming for the first time. The show is among five series from Warner Bros. TV set to will premiere on Pluto TV later this month under an output pact with new Skydance sibling Warner Bros. TV. Also coming to Pluto TV are “Veronica Mars,” “The Jamie Foxx Show,” “Martin” and “The Wayans Bros.” Pluto TV said this is the “first wave of programming” that will be coming from Warner Bros. TV to the AVOD platform. Pluto noted that it has added more than 25 library titles to the service this year and that, as a result, its AVOD viewership is up by 70% this year. “Having ‘Two and a Half Men’ on free streaming for the first time is a big moment for us,” said Pluto TV senior VP, content partners and programming, Will Gurman, in a statement. “It is one of the most-watched sitcoms of its era, and it anchors a slate of proven hits our viewers already know and rewatch, from ‘The Jamie Foxx Show’ to ‘Veronica Mars.’ Free streaming is expanding faster than any other part of the market, and a curated library like this is what makes Pluto TV a destination. We’re very happy with how the strategy is working.” “Two and a Half Men” will feature all 12 seasons (262 episodes) on Pluto TV starting Nov. 20. “The Jamie Foxx Show” will include its five seasons and 100 episodes starting Nov. 15. Five seasons (132 episodes) of “Martin” will be available starting Nov. 15. “Veronica Mars” will be available starting Nov. 20 (three seasons, 64 episodes). And “The Wayans Bros.’” five seasons (101 episodes) will be added on Nov. 15. The additions come after Pluto TV also recently added 14 FAST channels from the Warner Bros. library, including “Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern,” “Crime Scenes,” “Extreme Expeditions,” “The FBI,” “How To,” “I (Almost) Got Away With It,” “Mysterious Worlds,” “Nikita,” “Nip/Tuck,” “The Repair Shop,” “Strangely Addicting,” “Survive or Die,” “Third Watch” and “Whose Line Is It Anyway.”
