LOS ANGELES (AP) — The latest stop on Charlie Sheen's bury-the-hatchet tour was Sunday's 63rd annual Primetime Emmy Awards.
The fired star of "Two and a Half Men" appeared at the awards ceremony to present the lead actor in a comedy series award. Or as Sheen called it, "My old category."
But before he did, he took time to mend some fences.
"I want to take a moment to get something off my chest and say a few words to everybody here from 'Two and a Half Men," Sheen said as a silence fell over the awards show audience.
"From the bottom of my heart, I wish you nothing but the best for this upcoming season. We spent eight wonderful years together and I know you will continue to make great television."
Sheen then announced Jim Parsons of "The Big Bang Theory" as the winner.
Parsons said backstage that Sheen personally congratulated him, telling him his victory was awesome.
"It was that sweet and that banal. I wish there was something lurid to say," Parsons added.
Sheen was fired in March after railing against his bosses, who in turn blasted him for what they said was his unpredictable behavior.
Then he really went on a tear, declaring he had tiger blood, Adonis DNA and was a "rock star from Mars," as he insulted people connected with the show. He called former co-star Jon Cryer a troll.
"Jon, I want to tell you something: I do not think you're a troll," Ashton Kutcher, who replaced Sheen, told Cryer later when the two presented another award.
Cryer himself was in a forgiving mood. He applauded his former co-star when Sheen took the stage.

Ricky Gervais, who annoyed Hollywood royalty with his acerbic remarks as host of January's Golden Globe Awards, got a few shots in at the Emmy people, only this time from a distance.
"Sorry I can't be there live in person, not allowed, not after the Golden Globes," Gervais said in a pre-recorded announcement of the nominees for comedy series directing.
"In fact now, during any award ceremony, I'm not even allowed on American soil," Gervais joked.
He added that he knew anything rude or controversial that he said would be edited out. Then he went ahead and said it anyway. And it was fairly easy for television viewers to pick out the censored words.
"What a bunch of cowardly (bleep) countrymen, like Simon Cowell and Piers Morgan," Gervais said. "I've won a few Emmys myself. I've lost a few too. I was up for five last year, and I lost 'em all, to other shows, that were absolute (bleep)."
He signed off by raising his middle finger with a Twinkie superimposed over it.
Emmy host Jane Lynch got in her own jab.
"Poor little Ricky Gervais, someone didn't get enough hugs from Mommy and somehow it's Hollywood's fault," she joked.
