There’s really little need for explanation here. But in case you didn’t know, Charlie Sheen is about to get roasted on Comedy Central. To market the Roast, which airs on September 19, Comedy Central is using the Ozzy Osbourne classic “Crazy Train” in their commercials. Get it? Because Charlie Sheen is crazy! Though it just so happens that Sheen’s character on Two And A Half Men also gets killed off by a moving train.

And with all that in mind, we have the commercial above where Sheen plays the conductor to his own crazy train. You can further read how the channel is connecting their entire marketing campaign around the song at AdAge.com.
