CBS has announced the new lineup for season 11 of Two and a Half men and Angus T. Jones. Both Ashton Kutcher and Jon Cryer have both signed a one-year contract, but the 19-year-old has yet to be confirmed as continuing lead for the show.

Last November, the religious teen called the show "filth" and begged viewers, "Please stop watching it and filling your head with filth. People say it's just entertainment. Do some research on the effects of television and your brain, and I promise you you'll have a decision to make when it comes to television and especially with what you watch on television...it's bad news." He added, "If I am doing any harm, I don't want to be here. I don't want to be contributing to the enemy's plan. You cannot be a true God-fearing person and be on a television show like that. I know I can't. He continued, "I'm not OK with what I'm learning, what the bible says and being on that television show."

Angus' new views on Hollywood may be based off his new-found religious values. In a full ForeRunner Chronicles video, Angus said that he found peace at the Valley Crossroads Seventh-day Adventist Church,

"I really started to get into reading the bible and I started to look for a church to go to. Every Sunday I was going to like three or four churches, I was just looking for the right church."

He added, "I was looking to go to an all-black congregation." He explained, "The first day I went there I went by myself and I walked in and sat down at the back...it was just like, that was my church."

The teen actor later apologized his rant and signed back on for the 10th season. Nina Tassler, the CBS entertainment chief explained that CBS still wanted to continue working with Angus, "At the end of the day they want him back and he wants to come back." She added, "He's tabling next week and that's it and we move on. We had a little bit of a glitch, but what else is new?"

According to US Weekly, now the teen is shifting gears and wants to venture off into music, "They tried really hard to keep him, but he was just done done," a source says.

After wonderful reviews, Miley Cyrus was rumored to have been offered a recurring role on the hit show. Could this be the perfect opening for the country singer to break into the show?
