\nIt\u2019s strange to think that Good Luck Charlie has been over for several years, especially when many people still remember it all so vividly. Given that so much time has already passed since the series ended, we\u2019re curious to know what our favorite stars from the show have been up to. They showed a lot of promise while on Disney Channel, but has that manifested into anything now that the sitcom is over?
\n
\n[post_page_title]Jason Dolley playing PJ Duncan[\/post_page_title]
\nThe oldest of the Duncan siblings, PJ isn\u2019t the sharpest tool in the shed, although his family often underestimates him.
\n
\nAt the start of the series, he lacks focus and is more interested in performing with his band \u201cPJ and the Vibe\u201d rather than studying for school. However, as the show goes on, he becomes invested in his future after discovering a love for food. He attends a cooking school which he later graduates from, ultimately going on to run a food truck with his father as a business partner.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Jason Dolley now[\/post_page_title]
\nJason Dolley had already been a regular fixture on the Disney channel before \u201cGood Luck Charlie\u201d came along. He\u2019d appeared in the TV films \u201cRead It and Weep,\u201d \u201cMinutemen\u201d and \u201cHatching Pete,\u201d as well as portraying Newt in the sitcom \u201cCory in the House.\u201d
\n
\nAfter a decade of being busy with his acting work, the last few years have been quiet for Dolley. The actor took a four-year break from our screens, but recently returned for features in the comedy series \u201cAmerican Housewife\u201d and \u201cThe Ranch.\u201d
\n
\n[post_page_title]Leigh-Allyn Baker playing Amy Duncan[\/post_page_title]
\nThe mother of the Duncan family, Amy is hugely protective of her children. Although her job as a nurse frequently keeps her away from home, Amy does everything she can to be there for her kids.
\n
\nUnfortunately, this often leads her to be too overbearing, something that she improves upon as the series progress. Despite being a very caring woman, Amy has a habit of being conceited and regularly brags about herself. As a result, she tends to find that she’s excluded whenever something big happens involving good publicity.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Leigh-Allyn Baker now[\/post_page_title]
\nLeigh-Allyn Baker has been in the industry for several decades now, and she\u2019d already racked up dozens of credits prior to \u201cGood Luck Charlie.\u201d
\n
\nSome of her more notable appearances were as Ellen on the sitcom \u201cWill & Grace,\u201d a role that she\u2019s since returned to following the show\u2019s revival, and as Hannah Webster on the supernatural drama series \u201cCharmed.\u201d Though Baker continues to act, she also has two children to care for who were born in 2009 and 2012. The latter arrived while \u201cGood Luck Charlie” was still in production.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Bradley Steven Perry playing Gabe Duncan[\/post_page_title]
\nThe youngest of the Duncan siblings until Charlie came along, Gabe very much fits into the little brother stereotype. He\u2019s the prankster of the family, and it’s Mrs. Dabney who often bears the brunt of his mischievous behavior.
\n
\nUnlike the rest of his siblings, Gabe is hesitant to connect with Charlie at first because he holds a grudge about no longer being the youngest. However, over time he starts to bond with his little sister and is later less resistant when his parents welcome another child into the family.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Bradley Steven Perry now[\/post_page_title]
\nMuch like some of his co-stars, Bradley Steven Perry remained with Disney for a while after \u201cGood Luck Charlie\u201d ended. He featured in the game show \u201cWin, Lose or Draw,\u201d the sitcom \u201cI Didn\u2019t Do It,\u201d and the comedy superhero series \u201cMighty Med.\u201d
\n
\nMore recently, he provided the voice for Zevon on the second season of animated series \u201cDescendants: Wicked World\u201d and moved away from Disney to appear on an episode of the sitcom \u201cSpeechless.\u201d When he isn\u2019t acting, Perry spends a lot of his time doing philanthropic work.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Patricia Belcher playing Mrs Dabney[\/post_page_title]
\nThe main rival of the Duncan family, Mrs. Dabney is the bitter woman who lives next door. Aside from Charlie, she rarely gets along with any of her neighbors and has a particular dislike for Gabe.
\n
\nHis constant pranks often see her coming to the Duncan\u2019s front door looking for retribution, although she rarely ever gets it. Mrs. Dabney is the only one of her four identical sisters to have such a strong disliking for children, often resulting in her being referred to as the black sheep of her family.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Patricia Belcher now[\/post_page_title]
\nPatricia Belcher has been incredibly busy outside of her work on \u201cGood Luck Charlie.” Recently, she appeared in the comedy films \u201cThe Week Of\u201d and \u201cThe Tiger Hunter,\u201d although most of her work has been on the small screen.
\n
\nMany of her credits include single episode appearances, but she has had recurring roles on shows like the sitcom \u201cTrial & Error\u201d too. Her biggest part has been as Caroline Julian on the crime drama \u201cBones,\u201d a character that she played both before, during and after her time on \u201cGood Luck Charlie.\u201d
\n
\n[post_page_title]Samantha Boscarino playing Skyler[\/post_page_title]
\nSkyler wasn\u2019t the most beloved character during her first appearance on \u201cGood Luck Charlie.\u201d That’s because she was discovered to be the girl that Teddy\u2019s boyfriend was dating behind her back.
\n
\nHowever, although the two didn\u2019t get off to the best start, Teddy and Skyler end up becoming good friends. Their anger towards Spencer unites them, and they even end up writing a song about it together. It\u2019s through music that Skyler becomes close with Teddy\u2019s brother PJ, who she ends up dating until her family moves away.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Samantha Boscarino now[\/post_page_title]
\nDuring her career, Samantha Boscarino has never strayed too far from programming aimed towards younger audiences.
\n
\nBefore \u201cGood Luck Charlie,\u201d Boscarino featured on the Nickelodeon sitcom \u201cTrue Jackson, VP,\u201d and she later appeared in the Disney channel comedy spin-off \u201cGirl Meets World.\u201d However, she has stepped into other genres in recent years, including a credit in 2018 Christian drama film, \u201cGod\u2019s Not Dead: A Light in Darkness.\u201d Boscarino also portrayed the lead role in a Lifetime TV movie, \u201cThe Cheerleader Murders,\u201d which aired back in 2016.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Eric Allan Kramer playing Bob Duncan[\/post_page_title]
\nAmy\u2019s husband and the father of the Duncan kids, Bob is a pest controller with a penchant for saving money. He\u2019s often tight with his finances, much to the annoyance of his children, and prefers to handle things himself whenever something needs doing.
\n
\nUnfortunately, his plans rarely ever work out, forcing him to pay out for someone else to get the job done instead. When it comes to handling his family, he usually leaves the responsibility with Amy who he has a \u201cstrong respect\u201d for (and is essentially scared of).
\n
\n[post_page_title]Eric Allan Kramer now[\/post_page_title]
\nBob Duncan was the first major role that Eric Allan Kramer played since his portrayal of Dave Rogers in the \u201890s sitcom \u201cThe Hughleys.\u201d
\n
\nHowever, that isn\u2019t to say that the actor has been struggling for work. He\u2019s made appearances in a great variety of shows over the years, including on other sitcoms like \u201cWill & Grace,\u201d \u201cHow I Met Your Mother,\u201d and \u201cMy Name Is Earl.\u201d He\u2019s recently had a main role on dramedy \u201cLodge 49,\u201d and continues to do theatre work as part of the Antaeus Classical Rep Company.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Raven Goodwin playing Ivy Wentz[\/post_page_title]
\nIvy is Teddy\u2019s best friend in \u201cGood Luck Charlie\u201d and the one sometimes responsible for pushing the Duncan sibling into being more adventurous.
\n
\nShe has an obsession with money, clothes and boys, but it\u2019s not often that she\u2019s seen onscreen with the latter. Ivy\u2019s most prominent relationship was with PJ\u2019s friend Emmett which happened when they were younger, and it\u2019s one that she\u2019s never stopped regretting. Every opportunity she has she insults her ex, although he brushes it off as jealousy for him supposedly being a ladies man.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Raven Goodwin now[\/post_page_title]
\nRaven Goodwin has been doing fairly well for herself since \u201cGood Luck Charlie\u201d concluded in 2014. The year before the sitcom came to an end, Goodwin was cast as Niecy Patterson in the drama series \u201cBeing Mary Jane.”
\n
\nShe also recently took on the role of Eliza in comedy series \u201cSMILF,\u201d and played Lew in the action-comedy movie \u201cSnatched.\u201d The latter was Goodwin\u2019s first film role in over a decade and saw her star alongside big names like Goldie Hawn and Amy Schumer.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Shane Harper playing Spencer Walsh[\/post_page_title]
\nSpencer is Teddy\u2019s primary love interest throughout the show, but the two have a somewhat tumultuous relationship during their time together.
\n
\nWhile things between them look good at first, Teddy is heartbroken when she discovers that her boyfriend has been cheating on her with Skyler. The two end up befriending each other when they bond over their hatred for Spencer, though that doesn\u2019t stop him from trying to win Teddy back. Numerous times he attempts to show that he\u2019s changed, and in the final episode, he finally gets his girl.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Shane Harper now[\/post_page_title]
\nOn \u201cGood Luck Charlie,\u201d Spencer was known for his dancing ability, and that\u2019s a skill that actor Shane Harper has used to his advantage throughout his career.
\n
\nHe was a supporting dancer on reality shows like \u201cSo You Think You Can Dance,\u201d and competed on the first season of Nickelodeon\u2019s \u201cDance on Sunset.\u201d In addition to being a great dancer, Harper also enjoys singing and is a devout Christian, two things that worked well together when he starred in \u201cGod\u2019s Not Dead\u201d alongside former co-star Samantha Boscarino.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Mia Talerico playing Charlie Duncan[\/post_page_title]
\nNot even one at the start of the show, Charlie is the youngest in the series by a long mile. It\u2019s only as she grows up that she starts to develop more of a character, becoming mischievous just like her brother, Gabe.
\n
\nThis becomes stronger the more she\u2019s able to talk, eventually reaching the point where her mom loses friends because Charlies tells them what Amy really thinks about them. Despite being occasionally sneaky, though, Charlie is still relatively innocent and well-mannered throughout her appearances on the show.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Mia Talerico now[\/post_page_title]
\nMia Talerico was only ten-months-old when she was cast for \u201cGood Luck Charlie.\u201d The producers took a risk in hiring one child as opposed to twins, because success on set required Talerico to be in a good mood and available to work.
\n
\nHowever, they rarely had any trouble filming with her, and its helped her career out massively. She might only be ten-years-old, but she\u2019s already building up a good r\u00e9sum\u00e9. Her credits include regular appearances in comedy TV series \u201cMani,\u201d as well as several dramatic shorts.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Bella Thorne playing Cece Jones[\/post_page_title]
\nDisney is known for doing crossovers between their biggest shows, and that\u2019s what happened with \u201cGood Luck Charlie\u201d and sitcom \u201cShake It Up\u201d in 2011.
\n
\nWhen the Duncan women go to visit their great-aunt Nell, they end up being mistaken for famous dancers and are expected to appear on Shake It Up, Chicago. There they meet Cece Jones and Rocky Blue who quickly realize that Amy and Teddy aren\u2019t the Duncan sisters that the show was expecting. Rather than giving them away, though, the girls teach them how to dance.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Bella Thorne now[\/post_page_title]
\nDespite being the series that brought her to the attention of millions, \u201cShake It Up\u201d wasn\u2019t Bella Thorne\u2019s first foray into acting.
\n
\nShe\u2019d already appeared in a variety of films and shows beforehand, including main roles on the dramas \u201cMy Own Worst Enemy\u201d and \u201cBig Love.\u201d After \u201cShake It Up\u201d finished, Thorne stayed with the Disney channel for a short while, appearing in guest slots on the animation \u201cPhineas and Ferb\u201d and comedy \u201cK.C. Undercover.\u201d More recently, she\u2019s played a lead role in the Freeform drama \u201cFamous In Love.\u201d
\n
\n[post_page_title]Zendaya playing Rocky Blue[\/post_page_title]
\nThe other half of \u201cShake It Up\u2019s\u201dcentral partnership, Rocky Blue is the best friend and confidante of Cece Jones. Just as talented at dancing as her companion, Rocky is also in attendance when the Duncan women are mistaken for the famous Duncan sisters.
\n
\nWith Amy determined to go through with the ruse so she can appear on TV, Rocky shows them some steps to stop them making a fool of themselves live on air. When their performance is over, she\u2019s impressed with what the women managed to do.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Zendaya now[\/post_page_title]
\nAfter getting her big break on \u201cShake It Up,\u201d Zendaya has been going from strength to strength. She\u2019s only appeared in a handful of movies so far, but they\u2019ve been some of the biggest around.
\n
\nShe portrayed Michelle Jones in superhero film \u201cSpider-Man: Homecoming\u201d (and its upcoming sequel), and Anne Wheeler in musical \u201cThe Greatest Showman.\u201d Prior to that, she remained a regular on the Disney Channel with appearances in the TV films \u201cFrenemies\u201d and \u201cZapped,\u201d as well as her own series \u201cK.C. Undercover.\u201d
\n
\n[post_page_title]Bridgit Mendler playing Teddy Duncan[\/post_page_title]
\nCharlie\u2019s older sibling and only sister, Teddy is the one who decides to start making a video diary for the child to watch when she\u2019s older.
\n
\nShe worries that she won\u2019t be around much to give Charlie the advice she needs once she\u2019s a teenager, so she uses the diary to impart valuable advice for making it through her adolescent years. The responsible member of the family, Teddy is often referred to as \u201cGG,\u201d or \u201cgoody-goody\u201d by her friend, Ivy, though that doesn\u2019t stop her from occasionally getting into trouble.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Bridgit Mendler now[\/post_page_title]
\nAs with many Disney stars, Bridgit Mendler saw her rising fame on \u201cGood Luck Charlie\u201d as an opportunity to kickstart her music career.
\n
\nShe released her debut album \u201cHello My Name Is\u2026\u201d in 2012 which went on to sell several thousand copies in the US. Its lead single, \u201cReady or Not,\u201d reached number 49 on the Billboard Hot 100, and peaked in the top 10 over in the UK. On top of her music, Mendler has continued to act, with roles on shows like sitcom \u201cUndateable\u201d and drama \u201cNashville.\u201d
\n
\n[post_page_title]Debby Ryan playing Jessie Prescott [\/post_page_title]
\nJessie was not a series regular on Good Luck Charlie, but she did appear in a special Christmas episode. After running into Teddy on the subway, the two become friends and Jessie actually hosts her because a blizzard hits and she is unable to make it back home.
\n
\nPlayed by Debby Ryan, this character is actually the star from another former Disney Channel show, Jessie, about a girl who moves to New York with hopes of becoming an actress, but ends up a nanny instead.
\n
\n[post_page_title]Debby Ryan now[\/post_page_title]
\nNeedless to say being the star of Disney Channel’s Jessie – and obviously her cameos in shows like Good Luck Charlie – helped shoot Debby Ryan to fame.
\n
\nShe is currently starring on a new Netflix Show called Insatiable, which follows an overweight high school student who loses the weight and decides to get revenge on those who used to torment her. While Insatiable hasn’t exactly received critical acclaim, fans of the show were begging for a second season and from the looks of it, their wishes were granted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
