While it's yet to be seen whether Ashton Kutcher's comedic timing and acting chops can fill Charlie Sheen's Two and a Half Men shoes, one thing is certain.

He'll sure bring some sexy to the series.

In fact, one member of the Two and a Half Men family thinks Kutcher should consider showing some skin on the show...

"Ashton's very good at comedy and he's got the hot factor, so I'd tune in if he doesn't have his shirt on," Jenny McCarthy cracked at last night's "Beauty Culture" exhibition opening at L.A.'s Annenberg Space for Photography.

McCarthy has guest starred on Two and Half Men several times, most recently reprising her role as Sheen's con-artist ex Courtney back in November.

"I think there's going to be a lot of Charlie fans that will miss Charlie," she told us. "I'm hoping the chemistry is still the same. I mean, I did six episodes, so it's so hard for me to step out of Charlie-isms and step into Ashton-isms till I see it."

McCarthy is confident Kutcher can keep the series' ratings in the No. 1 spot.

"I think it will for the first few months," she said, "and it's up to him after that."

And remember, Mr. Kutcher, you can always take your shirt off. We Jenny certainly wouldn't mind.
