Charlie Sheen threw his hat into the ring to replace Jimmy Kimmel amid the late night comedian’s suspension.

Sheen joined Fox News’ Gutfeld! on Friday evening to promote his new Netflix documentary and autobiography. The actor joked he was only on the show because Jimmy Fallon wouldn’t return his calls.

On Kimmel’s suspension, Sheen said he’s all for free speech, but he also joked that he could be the only to “fix” Kimmel’s show and bring back big ratings.

“As far as the Kimmel stuff, you know, I am a firm believer in freedom of speech, you know? Especially, you now, some of the speech that I believed in, and, yeah, but all of that said, I saw the dismissal as a potential job opening, and if they want to, you know, fix that show and get some ratings, this guy!” Sheen said.

Host Greg Gutfeld argued earlier in the show that Kirk would have likely been in favor of Kimmel returning to his show.

Kimmel was put on indefinite suspension by ABC following comments about Kirk’s murder and his suspected shooter, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson.

“We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them,” Kimmel said.

Utah officials, including the governor have said that Robinson was “indoctrinated” in far-left ideology ahead of Kirk being shot and killed last week at a college campus in the state.

Kimmel’s ABC suspension came amid complaints from local affiliates and also followed FCC Chair Brendan Carr pressuring the network in a podcast interview.

“Frankly, when you see stuff like this, I mean look, we can do this the easy way or the hard way,” he said. “These companies can find ways to change conduct and take action, frankly, on Kimmel, or there’s going to be additional work for the FCC ahead.”

Check out the Gutfeld/Sheen exchange below:

GREG GUTFELD: How did you end up on this show?

CHARLIE SHEEN: I’m asking myself that right now. The math is pretty simple, Fallon wouldn’t return my call. I walked 20 feet off a Jesse Watters stage, saw you, you jumped up off the couch screamed my name, we never met before, gave me a giant hug and said, “hey, you wanna do the show?” And I was like, “f**k yeah.”

GUTFELD: And here we are.

SHEEN: And here we are.

GUTFELD: I feel like I’ve known you all of my life [laughs]. What do you make of this current climate? I mean, you’ve been, you know, watching what we’ve been watching, the world is changing.

SHEEN: I mean, as far as the Kimmel stuff, you know, I am a firm believer in freedom of speech, you know? Especially, you now, some of the speech that I believed in, and, yeah, but all of that said, I saw the dismissal as a potential job opening, and if they want to, you know, fix that show and get some ratings, this guy!

GUTFELD: That is genius. Except though, you’d be my competition. And he would kill me.
