So yes, ASHTON KUTCHER has officially kicked off the 9th season of “Two And A Half Men” with a funeral. No, not his…CHARLIE SHEEN‘s.  The latest season isn’t due to air til September 19, but here’s a lowdown on what to expect when it opens this fall…

Star news says Ashton‘s playing a brokenhearted Internet billionaire – brokenhearted from what, they aren’t saying. And he’ll be attending the funeral of  Charlie Sheen‘s character who’s been killed off on the show from an as yet undisclosed accident, though we’re betting it’ll be an overdose of tiger blood…you think?

Also in attendance will be returning main characters Jon Cryer and Angus T. Jones, and an ex-girlfriend played by Jenny McCarthy. Will they be suitably grief-stricken? We can’t say for sure except that we know Chuck Lorre definitely won’t be.

In fact, we have reason to believe Charlie Sheen himself will be celebrating his own character’s demise, because he’s just winningly said:

“I will be watching my fake funeral, attended by my fake ex-girlfriends, from my very, very real movie theater, with my very real hotties in tow.”
