Breathe easy, America: Two and a Half Men has just finished filming its first episode with Charlie Sheen replacement Ashton Kutcher, and according to an on-set source, it went "really well."

“Although it was a little bit rocky during rehearsal to film without Charlie, they welcomed Ashton,” the source told People. (Wait. Filming without Sheen was rocky?)

Kutcher’s net worth is also doing “really well” thanks to his new role. His salary of $700,000 per episode makes him TV’s highest-paid sitcom actor, according to TV Guide.
