LOS ANGELES, May 13 (UPI) -- CBS has ordered a 10th season of its sitcom "Two and a Half Men," starring Ashton Kutcher, Jon Cryer and Angus T. Jones, The Hollywood Reporter said.

Jones and Cryer have been on the series since it began, but Kutcher joined "Men" last season after original lead Charlie Sheen was fired mid-way through Season 8 for his erratic behavior and drug use.

Show sources told the entertainment industry trade newspaper Kutcher, Cryer and Jones will get small raises to return for the 2012-13 television season.

Lee Aronsohn is leaving his post of show-runner and writer-producers Don Reo and Jim Patterson will take over for Season 10, The Hollywood Reporter said.
