Editing Charlie Harper (section)

== Trivia ==

* The character of Charlie Harper was based on Charlie Sheen's character, Charlie Crawford, from ''Spin City'', with the role specifically created with Sheen in mind. Charlie's first job writing jingles was for a toothpaste brand, and his first national commercial was for Pepsi, which was viewed by around 20 million people when it aired. His mother, Evelyn, was disappointed that he couldn't secure a contract with Coke instead.
* Charlie's cell phone had several escort service phone numbers. He labels them by preference, as seen when he calls "Silent Betty".
* Charlie is not academically intelligent like his brother Alan, but he possesses far more common sense and street smarts, contributing to his greater success in life compared to Alan. He briefly studied at Juilliard but was "kicked out" for unspecified reasons.
* Charlie's "death" on the show was a result of Charlie Sheen's firing in September 2011 after a dispute with the show's creator, Chuck Lorre. Ashton Kutcher replaced Sheen, playing Walden Schmidt, an internet billionaire who buys Charlie's beach house and allows Alan and Jake to stay there following Charlie's death and funeral. At his funeral, it is revealed that Charlie was apparently only diagnosed with one disease, but several past girlfriends claimed he had transmitted multiple infections to them.
* Throughout the series, Charlie is often seen holding his iPhone incorrectly. Whether this was due to the character's frequent intoxication or an oversight by the camera crew is unclear. In the Season 9 finale, parts of Charlie's hair, body, and fingers are visible, marking the last time the character was portrayed by Charlie Sheen.
* Charlie had two tattoos: a rose on his right butt cheek, done by Rose when she was taking care of him while he was sick, and a second tattoo saying "Get out of my house" on his crotch, which he got in Season 8.
* It is unknown at what age Charlie lost his virginity, but from all the dialogue it is made clear he has been sexually active since his early teens and possibly lost it to an older woman.
