Resemblances
Characters in The Simpsons
Charlie bears a resemblance to Sam, one of the barflies at Moe's Tavern. this could be because they both have big glasses, they both have trouble with alcoholism, they have scruffy looks, worried eyes, and have bags under their eyes. They also occasionally are seen hanging out at Moe's Tavern as well.
Characters in Other Media
In Matt Groening's second show, Futurama the character Terry appears to resemble Charlie including his primary role of being a background filler and his usual role of having bad luck.
Creation
Voice
He is voiced by Dan Castellaneta, who said that he was "doing an imitation of Lenny" according to the commentary for Homer at the Bat. His voice sounds more like the Blue-Haired Lawyer and Arnie Pie who are also voiced by Castellaneta.
