"My favorite show is Two and a Half Men with Charlie Sheen. The little boy who plays along reminds me of my son,” Fritzl told Austrian news publication Bild.de.
“It relaxes me, I need to laugh. But it destroys the soul, if you are always sad."
According to the report, Fritzl is being held at a high-security prison with 900 inmates, 90 of which have been deemed “mentally-disturbed offenders.”
"I'm world famous," Fritzl said.
“Two officers are always with me for my protection,” Fritzl said. Being a sex offender makes him a target for inner-prison violence making management afraid for his life.
