External links Website disneychannel.disney.com/good-luck-charlie Good Luck Charlie is an American sitcom that originally aired on Disney Channel from April 4, 2010, to February 16, 2014. The series ' creators, Phil Baker and Drew Vaupen, wanted to create a program that would appeal to entire families, not just children. It focuses on the Duncan family of Denver as they adjust to the births of their fourth and fifth children, Charlotte `` Charlie '' ( Mia Talerico ) and Toby ( Logan Moreau ). In each episode, Teddy Duncan ( Bridgit Mendler ) adds to a video diary that contains advice for Charlie about their family and life as a teenager. Teddy tries to show Charlie what she might go through when she is older for future reference. Each video diary ends with Teddy ( or another family member, even Charlie ) saying the eponymous phrase, `` Good luck, Charlie ''. Among other decisions, executives included adult - centric scenes and changed the series title from Oops to Love, Teddy and finally to Good Luck Charlie in order to ensure the series would appeal to all family members. Good Luck Charlie premiered on Disney Channel in the United States on April 4, 2010, in Canada on April 5, 2010, in the United Kingdom and Ireland on May 14, 2010, and in Australia and New Zealand on July 23, 2010. In March 2011, a feature - length Christmas Disney Channel Original Movie based on the series, entitled Good Luck Charlie, It 's Christmas !, began production for a December 2011 premiere. In June 2013, Disney Channel announced that the series would end its run after four seasons. The finale aired on February 16, 2014, with a one - hour episode.

When parents Amy ( Leigh - Allyn Baker ), a nurse, and Bob ( Eric Allan Kramer ), an exterminator, return to work, they ask their three older children -- PJ ( Jason Dolley ), Teddy ( Bridgit Mendler ), and Gabe ( Bradley Steven Perry ) -- to help raise their little sister. At the same time, Teddy, PJ, and Gabe try to deal with school and general social challenges in their lives. The events in each episode become material for a video diary that Teddy is making for Charlie. Teddy hopes the videos will provide useful advice for Charlie after they have both grown up and Teddy has moved out. At the end of each video, she ( and / or other cast members ) says, `` Good luck, Charlie '' or may even say it indirectly such as `` Wish them good luck, Charlie. '' During the movie, Amy reveals to Teddy that she is pregnant with her fifth child, but this story plot is not brought into the series until the third season, during which Amy gives birth to a baby boy, Toby. Each episode ends, after the video diary, with an event that is weird and usually can not happen in real life. Characters Main The season four cast of Good Luck Charlie ( The Duncan family, from left to right ), Mia Talerico as Charlie Duncan, Bradley Steven Perry as Gabe Duncan, Bridgit Mendler as Teddy Duncan, Leigh - Allyn Baker as Amy Duncan, Jason Dolley as PJ Duncan, Eric Allan Kramer as Bob Duncan and Logan Moreau as Toby Duncan Teddy Duncan Teddy R. Duncan ( Bridgit Mendler ), Charlie 's only sister, is the second - oldest Duncan sibling. Feeling that she will not be around as much when Charlie is grown, she produces and directs video diaries for her, hoping they will give her advice that will help her be successful as a teenager. She produces these video diaries at the end of every episode, and at the end of every video diary she says `` Good luck Charlie ''. Her best friend is Ivy Wentz. It was mentioned in `` Sun Show : Part 1 '', that her parents were expecting a boy, hence the generally masculine name `` Teddy ''. She dated Spencer Walsh in season one, but they broke up after she caught him two - timing both her and a pretty, dim - witted brunette named Skyler, breaking her heart. She and Skyler later become friends. She and Spencer get back together in season two. Throughout the show Teddy has had numerous boyfriends. Teddy shows much care towards her brothers, such as saving PJ from falling out of the treehouse window, or offering to help Gabe deal with Jo, who has given him a black eye. Teddy 's best friend Ivy often calls her G.G. for `` goody - goody. '' She and Spencer get back together in `` Can You Keep A Secret ? ''. In `` All Fall Down '' Teddy and Spencer break up because they do n't want to be in a long - distance relationship while Spencer attends the Boston Institute for Performing Arts ( BIPA ). But when Bob 's newest employee Beau admits that he likes Teddy, they begin dating. The two break up when he decides to move home. In `` Accepted '', Teddy finds out that she is on the waiting list for Yale after Victor ; later she is accepted. Later in the last episode, Spencer and Teddy get back together and kiss, and she shoots the final entry in her video diary before leaving for Yale. It was never revealed what her middle initial `` R '' stands for. Amy Duncan Amy B. Duncan -- ( née Blankenhooper ) ( Leigh - Allyn Baker ) is Bob 's wife and the mother of PJ, Teddy, Gabe, Charlie, and Toby. She worked as a hospital nurse and is often portrayed as dutiful, protective and comedic. She loves her family and does everything to care for and protect them. She appears out - of - her - element when she is n't nurturing them, especially Charlie, but as the series progresses, she begins to feel assured that her youngest children are in good hands and trusts that her husband and 3 eldest children can look after Charlie and Toby. She is notoriously conceited and enjoys bragging about her accomplishments, be they admirable, real, or otherwise. Amy used to be on the local news team and was also a poet in her high - school days. A running gag on the show is that she was involved in virtually every extracurricular activity at Southwest Denver Community College but still earned a nursing degree. She lets special opportunities, such as being on TV or singing in front of a group, go to her head. She has a habit of taking any chance of any publicity that may shine on her family to focus onto her, but this never works out well ; usually she ends up being cut from the project or tossed out of certain groups. Amy seldom accepts her children 's misbehavior. It is revealed in the movie, that she is pregnant again with her fifth child. In the middle of the third season, Amy quit her nursing job to be a stay - at - home mother to Charlie and Toby. In the final episode, Amy is chosen to be the new anchor on `` Good Morning, Denver '', thanks to Charlie calling in during her on - air audition. Gabe Duncan Gabriel `` Gabe '' Duncan ( Bradley Steven Perry ) is the middle Duncan sibling, being both the younger brother of Teddy and PJ and the older brother of Charlie and Toby. From the beginning Gabe does n't approve of Charlie 's arrival and is the last one of the family to get used to her, but finally he reaches the point of reluctantly assisting in her care and demonstrating some fondness of her. He is a prankster and troublemaker, often sarcastic and lazy, but can also be dutiful and determined at times. He is front - man when it comes to the Duncans ' running rivalry with their neighbor Mrs. Dabney, who is often the target of Gabe 's pranks and stunts -- which is the only time the family does n't mind them. Although he does n't like Mrs. Dabney, he ends up dating a relative of Mrs. Dabney, Lauren. He and Toby are the only brown - haired Duncans ; all of the others are blondes. A running gag in the show is that he insults Bob 's weight and baldness, Amy 's cooking, PJ being a goofball, Teddy being a `` goody - goody, '' and occasionally Charlie. He also likes to harass and tease Mrs. Dabney, whom he finds annoying. He also won the right to name his baby brother Toby ; in one episode, he tried to impress a girl by making video diaries for Toby, ending them with `` Good Fortune, Toby ! ''. It has been revealed that Gabe was a calm and docile baby. Charlie Duncan Charlotte `` Charlie '' Duncan ( Mia Talerico ) is the title character and the second - youngest Duncan sibling. She is generally portrayed as being happy. It sometimes takes a few tries to get her to do the right thing. Charlie can also be mischievous at times. Many of the Duncan family 's adventures revolve around Charlie. Both her older brothers, PJ and Gabe, are often seen using Charlie for their own benefit, although PJ shows that he cares about her deeply. Gabe seems to dislike Charlie the most although, in some episodes, he is seen being quite fond of her. Amy thinks of Charlie as the perfect baby. It was revealed in `` Charlie is 1 '', that it was Teddy 's idea to nickname her Charlie. Charlie speaks more often in later episodes of seasons two and three. Toby was born on her birthday ; she responded to this by `` I like this present. '' In season three, her personality begins to develop, as she is seen as sneaky and mischievous, such as pretending to like a doll Amy bought for her to like Toby, then throwing it away when she was not looking ; and also telling Amy 's `` friends '' what she really thinks of them, causing her to lose them all. Also, she can be seen as not liking Toby as in the episode `` Doppel Date '' when she asks Bob if Toby is going to stay at the hotel and he says no and Charlie asks if they can talk about it. Bob Duncan Bob William Duncan ( Eric Allan Kramer ) is the father of Teddy, PJ, Gabe, Charlie, and Toby, and husband of Amy. He owns a pest control company, `` Bob 's Bugs Be Gone ''. He sometimes refers to his business as the `` Triple B-G ''. He loves bugs and attends the Bug Convention every year. Bob is the coach of Gabe 's basketball team, but he was temporarily replaced by his wife. It is also mentioned in `` Snow Show : Part 1 '' that Bob and Amy are not legally married because they were scammed by a con man who impersonated a judge ; they have a legal ceremony with all 4 children present. His childhood dream was to be a professional wrestler named `` Bobzilla '', which he showed in his company 's commercial. Bob gets made fun of a lot throughout the series because of his weight and baldness, usually by Gabe. He is barely more intelligent than the bugs he kills, and breeds much resentment among his kids by being very `` cheap '' and `` tight '' with his money. He wants his family to know him as a `` fix - it '' man, though his projects never seem to work out. He is slightly afraid of Amy, but he calls it a `` strong respect ''. He has two positions of authority when it comes to the children : driving lessons and barbecuing. He can be lazy but is determined to spend quality time with his wife and children. He has issues with his mother - in - law, Petunia. It is revealed he has apologized to Amy at least 162 times, while Amy just soaks it up. In `` Baby Steps, '' it is revealed that he dropped all of his kids including Toby. In multiple episodes Bob brags about having his own band in high school, `` The Bob Duncan Experience '', which made a grand total of one record ( an LP, no copies ). He can still play bass guitar and occasionally sits in with PJ & The Vibe. Late in the third season, Bob began exercising and dropped a massive amount of fat, replacing most of it with muscle. After Amy and the kids staged an intervention to stop his more - revealing wardrobe choices, he admits the catalyst for his getting back in shape was someone in the park mistaking him for Toby 's grandfather. It is revealed in `` Amy Needs a Shower '' that his middle name is William. In the final episode, PJ 's culinary talents motivates Bob to pry open his wallet and invest in his son 's business. PJ Duncan PJ Duncan ( Jason Dolley ) is the eldest Duncan sibling. He and Teddy often fight, although they care about each other, and he usually gets along well with his younger brother Gabe. He often appears awkward, somewhat careless, and childish, but on numerous occasions has been known to be resourceful, creative, and intelligent. He has also been shown to be a good cook, and Bob once tricked Amy ( who is n't a very good cook ) into working later so that PJ would cook. He and his best friend Emmett have their own band entitled `` PJ and the Vibe ''. PJ occasionally uses his younger sister Charlie for his personal gain, like when he uses her to make big tips while working for Kwikki Chikki by saying that his mother was in the hospital when she actually worked there ( customers just assumed she was ill ). He dated Teddy 's friend Skyler, who has his type of scatterbrain, but they broke up in `` PJ in the City '', when Skyler had to move to New York City because of her father 's new job. He was originally intended to be named after his great - grandfather, Patrick John, but Bob was nervous as he was writing on his birth certificate, resulting in the legal name of `` Potty John '' instead of the intended `` Patty John ''. Despite Bob trying to correct this in the season two episode `` Can You Keep a Secret ? '', he accidentally changed the intended name to `` PP Duncan ''. It is revealed in the `` Special Delivery '' episode that his middle name is Darth. In season three, PJ moves into an apartment shared with Emmett, but is still in the Duncan house a lot. In the season - four episode `` Good Luck Jessie : NYC Christmas '' he gets back together with Skyler, who will be attending college in Denver. In the final episode, PJ has graduated cooking school, buys a food truck, hires Emmett to work for him, and makes Bob his business partner. Also in the last episode, PJ finds Skyler in Denver, who forgot to mention she moved back to Denver to go to college. Recurring Ivy Wentz Ivy Renee Wentz ( Raven Goodwin ) is Teddy 's best friend, and is one of the major recurring characters in the series. She is seen spending most of her time with Teddy at the Duncan 's residence and often accompanies her on her dutiful, or personal, excursions. Ivy is energetic and witty and has proven to be quite intuitive ; although she does not receive the best grades in school. She is passionate, if not obsessed, about clothes, money, popularity, boys, and texting ; but on numerous occasions has proven to be a loyal and comforting friend. Ivy briefly dated Emmett when they were younger, and now never misses a chance to insult him, but went to the school dance with him so she and Teddy could have a ride in `` Dance Off ''. It is revealed that she loves country music and animal - print clothes. At one point, it is implied that Ivy has ( or had ) an addiction to chocolate. Spencer Walsh Spencer Walsh ( Shane Harper ) is Teddy 's ex-boyfriend. At first, they started dating after they begin studying together. He cheated on her in the episode `` Girl Bites Dog '', and Teddy broke up with him. In `` Snow Show '', he goes to the lodge that the Duncan family is staying at to get back together with Teddy. They share a kiss on the ski lift. At the end, they just decide to stay friends. He and Emmett share similar dancing abilities that rival each other, and they eventually become friends. In the episode, `` Can You Keep a Secret ? '', he and Teddy get back together but they break up in `` All Fall Down '' because Spencer goes to college in Boston. Later, on Teddy 's birthday, he returns, asking to get back together. However, Teddy turns him down as she ends up with Beau. He leaves devastated. He and Teddy end up back together in the series finale. Emmett Emmett ( Micah Stephen Williams ) is PJ 's best friend. He is slender, comedic, and has a desperate, misguided & very one - sided attraction to Teddy, though Teddy constantly rejects him. Emmett accompanies PJ on the drums in his band `` PJ and the Vibe '', and sometimes assists PJ on his problematic excursions. Emmett has a nephew named Mason who, he claimed, was better than Charlie, until Charlie beat Mason in a `` baby race '' by learning to walk. Emmett is also an incredible dancer, with skills matched only by Spencer. He once went out with Ivy when they were younger. In his mind, he sees himself as being suave, sophisticated, and very attractive to girls. In season three, Emmett and PJ get an apartment together. Mrs. Dabney Mrs. Estelle Dabney ( Patricia Belcher ) is the Duncans ' strict and easily annoyed neighbor. In `` The Curious Case of Mr. Dabney '', she was mistakenly accused of killing her husband. In `` Kit and Kaboodle '', it is mentioned that Mrs. Dabney and her four sisters were born in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, in 1958. She wanted the Duncans ' tree, which housed PJ and Teddy 's tree house, cut down ; but the family fought back. It is revealed that Estelle is one of quintuplets ; her four sisters are played by Belcher via split screen ; and her four sisters all love children and get along well with Gabe, accusing her of being the black sheep. Mrs. Dabney is often suspicious of Gabe, because his pranks and troublemaking are often directed towards her. She is often antagonistic towards the Duncans -- Bob, PJ, and Gabe especially - but is fairly tolerant of Charlie. She was also a big fan of the fictional Higgins and Zork television show when she was younger. She loves her son and her cat more than her husband, and some wonder why she married Mr. Dabney if she hated him so much. It is also revealed that she has a granddaughter named Lauren who ends up dating Gabe. In `` It 's A Charlie Duncan Thanksgiving '', it is revealed that she and Mr. Dabney had recently divorced.

Linda Duncan Linda Duncan ( Shirley Jones ) is Bob 's despicable and overly perky mother, who regularly upstages Amy, and gives her son a great deal of attention and praise, two things Amy can not stand ( this could well explain Amy 's disturbed need to steal the spotlight from all other family members ). She has appeared twice, in the episode following Toby 's birth and the third season Christmas episode, in which she brags about how she will be singing the same carol at the family talent show as Amy ( probably after eavesdropping from the front porch ), even trying to silence Amy during their agreed duet.

Development and production `` A lot of the high - concept shows have kids in an extraordinary situation where the parent or adult takes a backseat, and sometimes the adult is n't as smart as the kid, or it 's all about the kids putting one over on the adults. But we have a new show called `` Good Luck Charlie '' that has a very different kind of concept. It is very grounded, very relatable, and it 's not about the parents being dumber than the kids. We try and mine as much comedy out of the parents as possible, but it does n't mean the kids ca n't learn from the parents and get guidance from the parents ``. Adam Bonnett, senior Vice President of original programming for Disney. The Good Luck Charlie pilot, entitled `` Study Date '', was shot in February 2009, at Sunset Bronson Studios ( where Hannah Montana was taped ) and the series was picked up later that year. The show 's production occurs at Sunset Bronson Studios in Los Angeles even though the show is set in Denver, Colorado. Starting with the 2nd season, the series is taped at Los Angeles Center Studios, where Shake It Up is also taped. The show operates on a weekly schedule. Scripts for a new episode are issued on Monday before a read - through, Wednesdays are rehearsal and network run - through day, final scripts are issued on Thursday, and the episode is shot in front of a live studio audience on Friday night. According to Mendler, occasionally `` episodes are too big to handle with a live audience ( and are ) taped without an audience, but mostly they 're live ''. Good Luck Charlie was created by Phil Baker and Drew Vaupen, who have been writing together since 1993 on shows ranging from Suddenly Susan to Sonny with a Chance. The pair aspired to create a program that would appeal to entire families rather than simply kids. Inspired by the success of reruns of shows such as Full House and George Lopez with young audiences, Vaupen and Baker turned to family sitcoms. `` We wanted to do a show about a family, to bring back a family sitcom and make it about a real family, not wizards, nobody 's a pop star, nobody has a TV show '', said Vaupen, referring to Wizards of Waverly Place, Hannah Montana, and Sonny with a Chance. Veteran writer - producer Dan Staley ( Cheers ) later joined the show as executive producer. Disney 's Gary Marsh said `` because most network television abandoned the traditional sitcom, Disney has been able to snatch up a lot of experienced talent for behind the camera, including executive producer Dan Staley... '' Good Luck Charlie 's central family, the Duncans from Denver, Colorado, was carefully crafted for broad appeal. While the series is still told primarily through the view point of the Duncan children, the children 's parents, Amy and Bob, are less on the periphery and writers attempt to add scenes that adult viewers can relate to. For example, in one scene in the pilot episode Amy confesses to Bob that she is overwhelmed with becoming a working new mother again. `` She 's not sure she can pull this off '', says Bonnet. `` And just playing that scene the way we did, a very real scene between husband and wife, kind of makes this show different ''. The writers also try to include jokes for adult viewers while remaining chaste enough for their young target audience. Unlike most previous Disney Channel series such as Sonny with a Chance, Hannah Montana, or Cory in the House, both parents are seen in the Duncan family. `` It felt like the right time to have a show with two parents, to debunk the myth that Disney never has the mom in the picture '', says Adam Bonnett, Senior Vice President of original programming for Disney Channel. `` Because it is a myth ''. Because a series about the rich and famous might alienate viewers in a troubled economy, the Duncans were made middle class. According to Gary Marsh, Entertainment President of Disney Channel Worldwide, `` What we want to do is acknowledge the reality of the times in which we live, where two parents work, where kids are expected to help out around the house in meaningful ways. Real - life issues happen. Everyone is n't living ' The Life of Riley ' all the time. '' Naming Broadening Disney Channel 's appeal was a concern when choosing the names of the characters and the title of the program. `` You want a title that says, a ) this is a sitcom and, b ) this is something that will interest the main demographic but also we 're trying to expand the Disney brand beyond just girls '', Vaupen commented. The series ' title was originally `` Love, Teddy '', the phrase Teddy had used to end her video diary entries during development. However, `` Love, Teddy '' immediately felt feminized and almost excludes boys ``, Vaupen said. `` We also did n't want to have the word ' Baby ' in the title because that would exclude certain people ''. The Duncan baby was originally named `` Daisy '' during development, but producers thought that `` Charlie '', which is generally a masculine name, would attract more boys. Casting As Good Luck Charlie is low concept and character - driven, `` the actors not only had to carry the show, they also had to have `` pitch - perfect '' chemistry with each other to make the family dynamic believable ``. Bonnet says Disney Channel executives `` just fell in love with '' Bridgit Mendler, who stars as teenaged Teddy Duncan. `` She has all the attributes of a Disney star '', said Bonnet. Mendler first heard about Good Luck Charlie in late November 2008. After several rounds of auditions and cast reads, she finally secured the part in January 2009. Mendler and Jason Dolley, who plays Teddy 's older brother PJ, have starred in preceding Disney Channel series and movies before both were cast in Good Luck Charlie ; Mendler had a recurring role on Wizards of Waverly Place and Dolley starred in Cory in the House and numerous Disney Channel television movies. Variety magazine 's Brian Lowry says their careers `` ( reflect ) the Disney Channel 's knack for identifying young performers and rolling them from one project to the next, in a fashion reminiscent of the old studio system ''. Both Eric Allan Kramer, who plays Bob Duncan, and Leigh - Allyn Baker, who plays Amy Duncan, have also guest starred in preceding Disney Channel shows, and both Kramer and Baker had respectively guest starred in one episode each of the NBC sitcom My Name Is Earl, where Charlie writers Erika Kaestle & Patrick McCarthy had served as writers and supervising producers. Both Baker and Kramer were in the same episode of the NBC sitcom Will and Grace, entitled `` Sour Balls ''. Baker says Disney had been `` courting ( her ) for awhile to play a mom '', but she had always felt too young. `` I kind of feel like hey, you know what ? When I 'm done with this stint, I 'll actually be the age everyone thinks I am to be able to play the part ''. Baker, who was a new mother herself, was nine months pregnant at the time she was auditioning for the role. Mia Talerico -- Like most series featuring baby actors, producers of Good Luck Charlie had originally intended to have identical twins play Charlie Duncan, the title character and the Duncans ' new baby. Hiring two babies would allow for longer work days without violating child labor laws as well as the ability to substitute one child for the other if one was unavailable. However, the show makers were unsuccessful in finding the proper set of twins and decided to cast Mia Talerico instead. Marsh says casting Talerico, who was ten months old at the time of her casting for the role, was their highest risk while creating the show : `` It 's like flying without a net. She may have a bad day and we ca n't shoot and it 'll cost us tens of thousands of dollars. But so far, so good. She 's the most obedient actor I 've ever worked with ''.

Robert Lloyd of The Los Angeles Times described it as a `` professional sitcom from sitcom professionals '' with efficient jokes and typical sitcom characters, and situations which are `` willfully arranged ''. However, Lloyd praised the series for offering a `` contextually novel picture of a teenage girl taking care of her baby sister with a persuasive nonchalance and practical ease that transcends the strenuous comedy that surrounds it ''. Neal Justin of the Star Tribune said the `` slapstick heavy, laugh - track fueled sitcom '' had no redeeming qualities other than `` keeping your 11 - year - old sedated for a half hour ''. Rob Owen of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette said Good Luck Charlie would appeal to kids, but not adults. `` Parents have seen the same sort of show done before and better in ABC 's 1980s - era TGIF lineup '', wrote Owen. Contrarily, Brian Lowry of Variety magazine said Good Luck Charlie was `` a surprisingly refreshing throwback to ABC 's `` TGIF '' - style sitcoms ``. He commented that while the series did not `` push sitcom boundaries '', it was `` sprightly '' and `` pleasantly handled ''. Viewership The series premiered to 4.7 million viewers, making it the highest - rated series premiere for a Disney Channel Original Series since The Suite Life on Deck in 2008, and the week 's highest - rated cable program. Maclean 's reported that overall, the first season `` has been doing about as well as Disney 's more successful shows -- The Suite Life and so on ''. On June 24, 2012, the episode `` Special Delivery '' became the most watched episode ever of Good Luck Charlie, earning 7.48 million viewers, surpassing the episode `` Snow Show ( Part 1 ) '' which had 7.24 million viewers as well as the episode `` Good Luck Jessie NYC Christmas '' that garnered 5.8 million viewers and the series ' pilot episode `` Study Date '' which had 4.68 million viewers.

The most viewed episode in the United Kingdom and Ireland was `` Special Delivery '' with 602,000 viewers when it aired on October 12, 2012. Protest On January 28, 2014, Disney Channel announced that a television episode of Good Luck Charlie, `` Down a Tree '', would feature a same - sex couple. This decision caused a protest from the conservative group `` One Million Moms '' asking Disney Channel not to air the episode. One of Disney 's spokespersons told TV Guide the episode was `` developed to be relevant to kids and families around the world and to reflect themes of diversity and inclusiveness. '' Disney aired the episode as planned. Other people including actors Miley Cyrus and Evan Rachel Wood expressed their support.
