9.3 Million Watch ABC’s ’20/20′ Interview With Charlie Sheen

An estimated 9.3 million people watched the ABC News “20/20” special last night, featuring an interview with “Two and a Half Men” star Charlie Sheen.

The program placed first in its time period in the two key TV demos: adults 25-54 and adults 18-49. The interview placed second in total viewers behind CBS’ “The Good Wife.”

Sheen seemed to be doing everything in his power to undermine what was supposed to be an exclusive with ABC, granting three separate interviews to NBC’s “Today,” as well as to CNN’s Piers Morgan, TMZ.com and Howard Stern.

Sheen said on Monday that the ABC interview, conducted by Andrea Canning, “seemed a little slanted.”

Last night Sheen tweeted:

“Just got invited to do the Nancy Grace show… I’d rather go on a long road trip with Chuck Lorre in a ’75 Pacer….”
