Leslie Moonves, president and CEO of CBS Corp., has broken his silence on Charlie Sheen and his Meltdown Tour 2011.

"[He's] on the air quite a bit these days. I wish he would have worked this hard to promote himself for an Emmy," he noted of Sheen's countless media appearances.

As for Two and a Half Men, Moonves doesn't know if the CBS ratings powerhouse will be back in the future, but stopping production isn't causing any grief for the network. "Short-term, financially it is actually a gainer for us. Repeats obviously get somewhat less revenue than the originals. It is a show that repeats very well. Doing eight [fewer] originals saves us quite a bit of money."

Not that he wants to continue reruns forever. "I'm not saying long-term I want this to go on," he says. "Going down the road...I don't know what's going to happen," Moonves said. "I hope it's back. We'll see."
