Angus Turner Jones, the former American actor known for portraying Jake Harper in the CBS sitcom "Two and a Half Men", made a remarkable contribution to the show. It earned him two Young Artist Awards and a TV Land Award.

While the show made him the highest-paid child actor on the planet, Jones quit the show after controversy erupted following his derogatory remarks about the series on a Christian radio program.

He has not acted since 2006.

Early life and career as child artist

Born on October 8, 1993, in Austin, Texas, Angus T. Jones' foray into the entertainment industry began in the late 1990s with TV commercials even before starting kindergarten.

Evetually he secured roles to both television and film, incuding projects such as "Simpatico," "See Spot Run," "ER," "Dinner with Friends," "The Rookie," "Bringing Down the House," "George of the Jungle 2," and "The Christmas Blessing."

How Jones sees his character Jake

Reflecting on his portrayal of Jake, Jones isn't pleased about the impact he left behind. The actor views his character as distasteful, a sentiment he openly shared in an interview with a journalist from The Hollywood Reporter some years ago.

Angus Jones even released two videos criticising the sitcom urging viewers to shun it lest they become contaminated. "If you are a viewer of Two and a Half Men, I urge you to discontinue watching the show. I am associated with Two and a Half Men, but it's not a connection I wish to uphold. I implore you to cease engaging with it and refrain from saturating your mind with objectionable content," he said in the videos.
