CHARLIE SHEEN is back on television screens across America – in advertisements.

Sheen pokes fun at the recent turbulence of his private life and career with shot of him wearing a leg monitor and a joke about ‘loving being under house arrest’ in a new ad for Fiat.

Meanwhile, in a second (somewhat weirder) ad for TV provider DIRECTV, viewers are warned that having cable television will somehow end with them reenacting scenes from Platoon with the actor.

Sheen has more advertising appearances lined up: the former Two and a Half Men star has been tweeting about making an ad for Bavaria beer. He is also set to appear in a new comedy called – perhaps appropriately given his exit from the aforementioned show - Anger Management.
