|Pre-Season 8: Main character Charlie Harper (Charlie Sheen) is an [[alcoholism|alcoholic]] jingle writer whose series of casual sexual relationships is admired and envied by others, while his younger brother Alan, a chiropractor who is more moral and hard-working by comparison, is more prone to misfortune. There is a lack of positive female role models, and Charlie has an antagonistic and dysfunctional relationship with his mother, which is passed off as humorous.
|Pre-Season 8: Main character Charlie Harper (Charlie Sheen) is an [[alcoholism|alcoholic]] jingle writer whose series of casual sexual relationships is admired and envied by others, while his younger brother Alan, a tightly-wound chiropractor who is more moral and hard-working by comparison, is more prone to misfortune. There is a lack of positive female role models, and Charlie has an antagonistic and dysfunctional relationship with his narcissistic, emotionally toxic mother, which is passed off as humorous.
Post-Season 8: After saying goodbye to the late Charlie (a response to Sheen's dismissal from further appearances following his real-world bout with alcoholism, drug abuse, and adultery), Alan meets and takes in tech company billionaire Walden Schmidt, whose divorce from his wife is presented positively. One of the episodes depicts Alan's ex-wife and current girlfriend implied to have undergone a lesbian one-night-stand. In another episode, Jake, Alan's son, comments about getting an STD as if it were a badge of honor.
