Charlie Sheen's dad to make sure his son stays on best behavior on new sitcom, Happy Jack
AMC has given the green light to Happy Jack , a new half-hour family comedy, starring Charlie and Martin Sheen.
Charlie Sheen's father, Martin Sheen, is set to ensure his son's behavior remains impeccable on their upcoming sitcom, Happy Jack. The series premiered on AMC, a network well-acquainted with Sheen's previous roles. Martin Sheen will play Jack's father, alongside his son, who portrays the character of Jack, a perpetual troublemaker with two daughters.
One daughter manages Jack's business while the other is about to elope with an investment banker who shares the same age as Jack. Despite the comedic premise, the relationship between father and son is expected to provide plenty of family-friendly laughs. The show, which will consist of six episodes in its first season, is scheduled to air later in 2027 on AMC and AMC+.
The writing duo behind Two And A Half Men and The Ranch, Jim Patterson and Matt Ross, co-showrun the series, hoping to bring their expertise to the project.
