Tropes which apply to him and his work:
- The Cast Showoff: Charlie is well known for his musical talent. Along with his singing voice, he can play piano, guitar and harmonica. He’s also written quite a few songs for Sunny.
- The Danza: The character he plays on It's Always Sunny is also named Charlie.
- No Indoor Voice: A Charlie Day character who doesn't scream half of his lines is a rarity.
