Chuck is a slow-minded, self-centered, and laid-back guy who means well. His career is street preforming since he is unable to get a real job due to his bad credit. He lives in a luxurious apartment with his son, and his sister Annie, before moving out and living on his own with his best friend Pete; He was ridiculed by his parents for being a complete "load" as he says, which was the reason he moved into the apartment, so he could get away from his disapproving parents.

He served as a single parent to his 15-year-old son Albert, until meeting a widowed mother named Liz Quillip, who was introduced in the second season with her daughter Kim. Later on, Liz became Chuck's girlfriend and fiancée.
