    Charlie Harper at his best.

    This was a very amusing episode. Not only did it contain snappy dialog, it also features Charlie Sheen demonstrating his musical talent. The writers for this episode were wonderfully creative. The idea of a womanizer like Charlie actually performing before children works in this episode. True, the show is a sitcom and as such the story is a lot of fluff, yet this episode manages to take the essential plot to a higher and much more amusing level. The children love Charlie; his cynicism is revealed to be a defensive barrier hiding an essentially good person, someone who will be there for you and actually care. Okay, the songs a bit off-color and perhaps not totally appropriate for young children, but the kids love it! And they think Charlie is great and of they think he's great, then why should anyone disagree?

    Cheesy Waffles

    Charlie Harper at his best. As a children's entertainer, Charlie's new career is launched & takes off in a big money making way. The songs are related to the functions of the body, but Charlie makes it fun & interesting that the parents of the kids don't disapprove.

    When you think about the traditional Nursery Rhymes, they were born of a different type of natural environment one of farming, home cooked foods, and manual labour. Todays, natural environment is a focus on bodily functions, mental support and sex education, which is why I think these songs should be released as an Audio Digital Download, or CD.

    The music moguls missed a trick or 2. They missed out on the £££ and $$$ revenue that could have come from or on the back of Charlie Harper's music genius.

    • Goofs
      The "800" number doesn't have enough digits and wouldn't work. The numbers spell "Waffle", not "Waffles". Had it been spelled correctly, as "Waffles", it would have been correct and worked.
    • Quotes

      Charlie Harper: Oh, Raffi, you magnificent son of a bitch. How does he do it? What does he have that I don't?

      Alan Harper: Well, judging from first impressions: a genuine love of children and bladder control.

      Charlie Harper: That was a cheap shot.

      Alan Harper: I take them when I can.
