Ferrell as Berta in ‘Two and a Half Men’ CBS Ferrell probably is best known for her role as no-nonsense housekeeper Berta on the hit CBS comedy Two and a Half Men. The role earned her a pair of Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series Emmy nominations in 2005 and 2007.

Berta, your housekeeping was a tad suspect, your ‘people’ keeping was perfect.” Rest easy Berta, a beautiful talented soul for certain

Two and a half men was a great show. It wouldn’t have been great without her.

Loved her Character, she was crass and quite capable to kick ass!

I don't know as I'd go quite that far. 2.5 Men had several great characters. But it certainly wouldn't have been as great w/o her.
RIP, "Berta"

Nah, I think the Bean man is right. Like many very successful shows, the way the cast integrates with each over while still creating these memorable individual roles is often a huge part of what makes them so successful. Berta to a large degree made the show what it was. She always made me laugh and for that I am very thankful. May she RIP.
