Introducing Julie Rogers

I liked Julie thought she was different and refreshing.

Fun and sexy. A nice return to form after the Shelley Hack travesty.

I know this will start trouble, but I thought she was the sexiest of the bunch.

Just her voice alone.

she was definitely sexy.

She was beautiful - but something about her hair color never seemed to match her face.

Awful.

Show was unwatchable at that point.

I think she was the prettiest angel and wore the best outfits that season. Jaclyn looked like shit in the final season.

Sittin' here thinkin' 'bout Julie.

Today Julie meets Jimmy Joy at a party.

She needs it quick, catch my drift?

She was the first woman I saw nude in a movie ("Sheena," which remains a fave). I still esteem her as one of the most exquisite women I've ever beheld, infinitely more enchanting that contempo types like JLo or Jolie. Julie's character was so cool because she was pure exploitation gold: a street-fighting model who'd done time and originated from a broken home.

I guess someone was a little envious of all the traffic on the Shelley Back thread.

Someone should introduce her to Harvey Weinstein. She's gorgeous in a slightly tough way. Who is she?

I was told by a friend who was a PA on the set of CA in its final years that on her first day on the set, Jaclyn asked Tonya, 'So do you have anything else on your resume besides Two Girls, One Cup?' And then just walked away.

I was also told that Julie Rogers can KICK ASS!

I found her odd skin tone distracting. Also, what R5 said.

Her skin tone was nice. Lotsa makeup!

She’s tough! Street-wise.

I love how she rides atop cars.

Don't you bitches want to talk about her?

She wore the awful hair and makeup of the 80's well. But the show was crap by the time she came aboard, and she didn't generate a lot of excitement.

it didn't help that there was a hollywood tv strike in 1980 that prevented the showing of the angels season 5 premiere until November.

[quote] on her first day on the set, Jaclyn asked Tonya, 'So do you have anything else on your resume besides Two Girls, One Cup?'

To which Tonya replied, “No, silly. That was last season! The one where you and Cheryl both fall in love with Patrick Duffy? Shelley was in that one. I think you’re getting a tad confused. Have you taken your pills today?”

I thought she looked better as a brunette than a blond.

OP, This was 1981 (had to google it). Her introduction, such as it was, was 38 years ago. Take your aricept, do a crossword puzzle to stimulate your brain and wait for a rerun of The Lawrence Welk show to watch in the community room at the home.

R 25, I’m 45 years old. I’m not ready to join you in the home yet.

I'm ready.

Julie wouldn’t have put up with any cuntiness from Kelly. Unlike Tiffany who internalized it and got the fuck out because she couldn’t deal. And every time Kris’ big sis would come for a visit she wouldn’t even speak to poor Tiff! Julie would have made that bitch talk to her! She wouldn’t have put up with that shit from Jimmy Joy...and she sure as fuck wouldn’t take it from so-called friends!!!

Julie not putting up with Kelly’s shit.

I liked that aspect of Julie, r28.

Tanya’s website.

The Tonight Show appearance in 1981. Tanya is nervous and Johnny is a real jerk.

I usually think of Tanya Roberts in the Spring.

Julie where is Julie Rogers?

Still has a pretty viable career, by most accounts

The worst episode of CA was Season Five’s “Chorus Line Angels “. Because of this fucking number. Which they show twice!

R36 I agree! I hate that episode!

Fuckin “Moonshinin’ Angels” is today’s episode. I hate it cause it’s uber stupid.

It’s like Charlie’s Angels take on The Dukes of Hazard. Not a good mash up.

Tanya was in Night Eyes with Andrew Stevens. Has an actor ever been more beautiful? I think that was the first straight to VHS movie.

She was great in That 70s Show.

The Seduction comes out on Blu Ray this month, r40.

r36, that episode was directed by Bosley (David Doyle).

I remember watching one of those "Charlie's Angels" documentaries, and Cheryl Ladd said that Tanya Roberts had the most beautiful skin she had ever seen.

Chorus Line Angels in 7 1/2 minutes!

With bonus Nancy Fox (“Who are you and why are you asking me all these questions???”)

I love how they come back from Hawaii with no fanfare. No "It's good to be back " or "welcome home, Angels". There just back.

lol r46. r45, I absolutely hated Nancy Fox in the episodes.

The Margo scene climax must been seen to be believed. Watch it and LEARN.

I saw 'Tanya Roberts' in a X Rated film called The Story of K in the early 1980s. She was tied up and had pegs placed all over her body and then they were removed. And the same actions just kept repeating for about the 90 minute running time. There was no sex or abuse - it was really bizarre. Not sure if it was the same Tanya Roberts or just some woman with the same name. They looked very similar but it could have been someone else.

She reminds me of the tragic model Gia: tough, East Coast, pretty... but that's about all. She was also into drugs; I saw her on Merv once and she talked slow and slightly aggressively, and her eyelids were heeeavy- like she just scored in the green room.

why were you watching shit like that r49?

R51 It was on the shelf at the video shop and the cover said starring Tanya Roberts caught my eye and curiosity.

well, r52, i hope you got your jollies.

R53 No, it was tiresome and boring. Watching someone having pegs placed on the skin all over the body and then removed and then watching the same process over and over boring. I suppose there is a niche market for that sort of stuff but I'm clearly not it.

The Tiffany thread has expired. Long live the Julie thread!

Why are so many of you old queens stuck in the worst parts of the ‘70s/‘80s? MOVE ON.

Tanya never did full on porn. Just the softcore straight to video, skinamax type stuff. Her first move "Night Eyes" with Andrew Stevens (Kate Jackson's ex hubby) was huge seller/renter and was one of the movies that helped start the flood of clones that flooded the market for some time.

Yeah, she might nave have done 'full on porn' R57, but she had that vibe that she'd show 'pink' if you gave her five dollars.

Funny Tanya story. When the clothing designer for the show, Nolan Miller went over to Tanya's house to get some idea's for her wardrobe for the show, and Tanya's husband Barry exclaimed "She has a great body, she can wear anything. Show him, honey." and proceeded to have her strip completely naked in front of him. Miller told that story on his Television Academy Foundation interview on youtube.

Tanya and Barry had an open relationship, where they didn't discuss their affairs with others on the side. Can't imagine Barry getting too much on the side, he wasn't the best looking guy. But it worked for them and they were together for over 30 years.

show him your tits, honey. show him your pussy too.

I like how they styled Julie's clothing on the show. She was styled very sexy and hot circa 1981.

... unlike Kelly and Kris who were styled shockingly mousey in the fifth season.

It was shocking, r62.

Kelly and Kris who were styled shockingly mousey starting in the 4th season. Kris looked better in S5 (though still not as good as S2/S3).

The Real Housewives Of Honolulu.

Shelley who?

We must never forget that Miss Jane Wyman was a special guest star in season 5, episode 3.

[quote] Can't imagine Barry getting too much on the side, he wasn't the best looking guy. But it worked for them and they were together for over 30 years.

As far as lovers/husbands go, I would rank Andrew Stevens first and Dennis Cole 2nd.

Lee Majors and Ryan ONeal would cum in third/fourth. I would rank Ryan higher but he’s such an incredible asshole + when he was together with Farrah he was already well past his prime.

Jaclyn ‘s first husband, Roger Davis, in the 5th spot.

Roger Davis tried to get Jackie as the new Victoria Winters on Dark Shadows when Alexandra Moltke departed. One can imagine how atrocious Jackie's audition must've been, since the actress they went with, Betsy Durkin, was pretty awful herself. If Smith had been hired, she and Kate Jackson would've crossed paths on Dark Shadows.

I’ve got cramps!

R66 That was a reaction shot of them watching Bosey in a grass skirt doing a Hawaiian dance. What viewers didn't know was that David Doyle wasn't wearing underwear underneath it and mooned them during one take. They used that reaction because it was the most real one. Cheryl revealed that tidbit in one of the Charlie's Angels TV specials.

If that happened today, it would be labeled sexual harassment probably.

Who in the hell wanted to see Bosley’s ass?

I did!

Me too.

I want to see Bosley’s ass about as bad as I want to see Big Aggie’s pussy.!

I’ll bet David Doyle’s trailer was just covered wall to wall with his spunk! Especially after Cheryl joined the cast.

She always had a trashy look. But I guess straight guys liked it.

My favorite Hawaii episode is the one where Julie and her shady friend Bianca get involved with drug smugglers while deep sea diving. That episode had such a random assortment of guest starts like Sonny Bono, Antonio Fargas and Anne Francis.

David Ogden Steiers was the Coco Of Charlie’s Angels!

Ii Bet Zora flicked her king-sized bean a lot after seeing Kris on the steam table half naked.

I wanted to pop the boil on his face.

Charlie's sexiest - and last - angel. Yes, she was very pretty and really stood out. If she had come on the show sooner it might have lasted a little longer.

Angel line-up on the last season, #5.

Timothy Leary?

Sexy Tanya with two PTA moms.

Tanya as PTA mom.

Jaclyn was the heart and sole of CA. She was terrific in the season 5 episode where Kelly becomes addicted to heroine.

Heroin Kelly was Season 4. The depressing season.

beautiful. wasn't she also in the Beastmaster movie from the 1980s?

She was also known as Tanya Roberts?

This Tanya thread is far less fun and interesting than the Shelley thread. 😴

Tanya WERKS the opening credits walking toward the camera Angel walk.

As well she should R92 as she is a graduate from a top school for models.

But a lot SEXIER, r91!

Are Cheryl and Tanya still golf buddies?

Looking a lot like Jaclyn here.

Tanya Roberts was the only Angel to become a Bond Girl in the 007 movie, "A View To A Kill".

Anybody see her in the James Toback movie Fingers? opposite Harvey Keitel? Hardly behavior acceptable by Angels' standards!

Bosley: Is that a tube top you’re wearing?!

Julie: Just a little elastic basket to hold my peaches. Want some nectar, Hector?

“This isn’t Omaha, Nebraska. This is the big pond, where the big fish play for big bucks. There’s sharks in these waters. So you’d better watch out before diving in.”

I love you r100!

I wonder if Big Aggie and Zora ever had sex?

Angels ‘88!

Laurel Munroe!

Two Bosleys!

The angels for 1988 were actually cast. Tea Leoni, Karen Kopins, Claire Yarlet and Sandra Canning. I wonder what happened. Not sure if they even did a pilot.

It would be better with Shelley Hack!

There was also a Spanish-language called Angeles! More than you ever wanted to know at the link...

Beamish, Big Aggie and Zora were my favorite villains .

What? No Margo, R107?

Sally Kirkland was in the running to play Kris, but Cheryl won out. I think Sally was given a consolation guest starring role that season.

R109 are you absolutely sure?

Stintwoman Angels today. Not a favorite

I bet Jane Wyman was burning up on location in Hawaii in a sweater set, wig and hat R67.

They definitely keep Cheryl and Jaclyn (esp Jaclyn) covered up, almost to the extreme in S4 and S5--which is odd because it's clearly not due to any body flaw, they still do the swimsuit-towel thing that CA always relied on in those seasons too.

Season 5 sucks for the most part.

R107 -those are all great villains you name but I have to give a shout out to Zora’s cohort in crime, the sinister Dr. Slavin! She first tried to seduce Kelly with her lesbian Rorschach tests, before attempting to inject our girl with a lethal serum!!!

r114, Kelly fucked her dyke ass up too!

I will always love Season 5 because it gave us Margo!

Season 5 intro:

R111 Yeah, not a great episode. Funny they had Julie be afraid to jump off the platform onto the airbag below when earlier in the season she hopped on the top of a speeding car.

R112 Cheryl said she was greatful Tanya did all the bikini scenes without complaining. She was glad she didn't have to do many that seeason, compared to the others.

R118 lol.

Cheryl and Jackie seem like decent people who didn't take it all so deathly seriously, unlike Kate Jackson.

Kate made my ass tired.

I love how being stuntwomen had nothing to do with the case. They could have been craft services for all it mattered.

I think the writers even gave up during Season 5. I mean, "Moonshinin' Angels", "Chorus Line Angels", "Mr. Galaxy", and "Let Our Angel Live" are among the worst episodes of the show.

"Chorus Line Angels" is particularly bad. Like watching a bad local musical in a podunk town.

Tanya had no chemistry with Cheryl or Jackie. For all of Shelley's shortcomings, she fit the show and had an easy chem with Cheryl/Jackie. They should've kept her for the 5th season. Tanya was like a square peg.

Let's not forget she was also a Bond girl in 'View to a Kill'.

Her emotional range as an actress was...stupefying.

True, r126. None of them were great actresses. Tanya being the worst of the lot.

I didn't think Shelley had much chemistry with Jaclyn or Cheryl either. Even Kate and Cheryl managed to have more chemistry and they didn't like each other (more on Kate's side though). That's probably the main reason's Seasons 4 and 5 fell flat.

I think they knew Season 5 would be the last and they needed to get through it to get over the 100 episode mark to get a good syndication deal. They lost over half of the audience during Season 4 and few shows recover from something like that.

R109, it's a good thing they cast Cheryl instead of Sally Kellerman, because had they cast her the show would've just seemed like Sabrina was running a group home.

I think they tried to make the show a bit grittier and realistic the last season, since the popular dramas and detective series of that season were much more provocative (Dallas, Magnum PI), but they really couldn't pull it off. The show was stuck in the late '70s bubble-gum TV time warp.

Dallas started in the 70s too. Not a good example.

It was tit tv.

Yeah but Dallas started hitting its stride in 80/81. Dumbass.

It's too bad Farrah got so extra after the first season; wanting to break her contract and all. Her, Kate, and Jaclyn had wonderful chemistry. You really got the sense that the characters were true friends outside of the work they did for Charlie. They were all very close in real life as well. Oh the thought of what at least a couple more seasons with Jill Munroe would've been like.

Julie was a fox.

R133 I think you have shown yourself to be what you called me.

“Pussycat, destroy my competition!”

“Oh fuck.”

I would have been happy with a Kate/Farrah/Tanya lineup.

Still the fairest angel of them all.

R97 Jaclyn was almost a Bond girl. She had to turn down "Moonraker" because of her Charlie's Angels contract.

[quote]r5 something about her hair color never seemed to match her face

Did they futz with the color? Sometimes it looks brown, sometimes red. Is that just the lighting?

Later on as a blonde:

[quote]r11 I still esteem her as one of the most exquisite women I've ever beheld

Her eye color really is rather amazing - -

[quote]r44 I remember watching one of those "Charlie's Angels" documentaries, and Cheryl Ladd said that Tanya Roberts had the most beautiful skin she had ever seen.

Ladd has been very complimentary about Roberts over the years.

She also said that when the new actress revealed herself in a bikini for the first time on set, she and Jaclyn Smith were awed.

[quote]r62 Kelly and Kris were styled shockingly mousey in the fifth season.

Yeah. Whose idea was it to make Cheryl Ladd look like a 50-year-old Barbara Eden??

[quote] Jaclyn was almost a Bond girl.

Good thing she didn't get it. For some reason being a Bond girl seems to be a career stopper. It got the actress notoriety, sometimes for a while, sometimes just for one movie, but no career. Not even sure I could name three actresses who played the typical Bond girl and yet had great follow up roles.

Cheryl and Shelley probably had the least successful post-CA careers.

[quote]r146 Not even sure I could name three actresses who played the typical Bond girl and yet had great follow up roles.

I'm inclined to agree with you. I guess I would say Kim Basinger, Diana Rigg, and Rosamund Pike (who at least did GONE GIRL for David Fincher) have had the best careers, artistically. And Rigg didn't play a "typical" Bond Girl.

Jacqueline Bisset also had a small role in CASINO ROYALE - but her career's always been kind of neither here nor there, even if she never went away.

Brenda Dickson had the body of an Angel.

...and the brain of one as well...R149

Bootsie was better than Josie.

Does anyone remember Toni's Boys, the backdoor pilot with Miss Barbara Stanwyck?

But I'll never forgive Andrew for not showing it all in "Night Eyes." There were several teasing shots of beautiful butt and underwear, but this was a prime example of almost doesn't count. Seems to me she showed it all, if that matters.

Yes, it was terrible. Was Stanwyck desperate for money at the time? The "boys" were too bland and ordinary looking (except for the younger one, who was the best looking by far). The best thing about that episode was Pinky Tu... er, Roz Kelly.

Was Stanwyck friendly with Aaron Spelling? Was he involved with The Big Valley?

R145-as a kid I always hated when Cheryl wore her hair up in any way. I thought it aged her ten years!

It was indeed an outrage.

Long, flowing locks are what worked on her.

Watching the 5th season, I don't remember seeing Julie ever driving the Pinto. Did I miss it ?

Well that ugly Pinto was over 5 years old by then.

Julie drove a jeep in all the HI episodes

For R152

They left out this part of Toni/ Barbara’s voice over:

“Bob’s a top, Cotton is a big old bottom, and Matt here is versatile and ready for anything!”

I can't wait for Attack Angels episode to appear on MeTV this time around! Kill, Julie, kill!

R162 You missed it.

Had no idea the two bodybuilders in "Mr Galaxy" were Colt models

Bodybuilder #2

Are we at “Mr Galaxy”? If so and if they are showing the episodes in order that means tomorrow’s episode is the awful “Let Our Angel Live”, the final episode of the series. Fucking flashback episode 😤

Such a waste having a flashback show as the final episode. They don't even show Sabrina, Jill and Tiffany in the flashbacks.

Halle Berry is arguably the most successful 'Bond Girl' (Jinx in "Die Another Day") having won the Best Actress Academy Award for "Monster's Ball."

I kind of hate it when they go back to season 1.

I feel the same. I like some of the episodes but I patiently wait for Kris to show up.

She can’t die Boz!

I’ll never forget when Kelly first came into my life.

Bosley was truly their fearless leader.

Charlie is hiding in the operating room.

Charlie Townsend = pussy

Steadman?

I hope Dr Steadman can help Kelly!

She will return as super filtered ghost in 2nd Charlie’s Angels film, offerings words of encouragement to drunk Drew Barrymore!

Doyle is really mad at Jackie for scuttling his gig.

Bosley to Kris: “Well, you sure wanted her dead when you were both trying to get into Bobby Ewing’s pants!”

Punky Brewter's abused brother!

I will be fine once I get the catsup off my face!

Bobby Ewing had a lot in his pants!

Dear kindly judge your honor!

Kelly has been more than Reva Shayne combined!

You’ve been hurting your son!

through

They must have really hated the other Angels at this point.

Jackie was really good when she tried.

They could have had Forsythe show up with the face mask.

Charlie is Jesus!

Julie gets the last line Ah, Kelly!

Or was that Kris?

Kate is still bitter that she didn't get the M role in Kramer vs Kramer. If things had turned out differently, it could've been M doing Scarecrow and Mrs. King.

Or was Shelley Hack!

Let Our Kelly Live!

Jaclyn Smith is the only TV Angel to appear in one of the "Charlie's Angels" feature films. Kelly Garrett made a cameo appearance in the second movie "Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle" (2003).

Once upon a time there were three little girls who went on the police academy.

One in Los Angeles...one in San Francisco....and one in Las Vegas.

Cheryl: “Sex. You two. Seriously??”

Angel Aerobics!

More Angel Aerobics!

More!

Cheryl auditioning for Fleetwood Mac, late 80s.

More post-Angel hairdos.

I still can’t believe Kelly got shot in the head twice. That bitch was indestructible.

Fuck, no! Not even heroin could keep Kelly down!

The winner for Most Tortured Angel clearly goes to Kelly. Physically and mentally she was really put through the wringer- head wound traumas, Beamish flashbacks, heroin. She’s been through a lot.

Kris could also take a beating. The episode “Angels in Springtime” alone makes her runner up.

(Jill probably fared the best. ‘The Burning Bed’ doesn’t count.)

Jill and Sabrina were the least abused Angels

I had my share of abuse.

I love how Kris flashbacked to an episode she wasn't even in.

I caught that too, r207!

The first flashback episode was Sabrina’s last episode. The second flashback episode was Kelly’s.

I think it's appropriate that Kelly flashbacked to an episode she wasn't even in, what with the recurring head injuries and all...

Bosley was unhinged in this one.

Yes, how was David Doyle denied an Emmy nomination for his emotionally devastating performance?

It’s back to season 1 again.

Bosley is married in Season 1. He references a wife in one of the episodes.

Then she is never mentioned again.

Assume she died or divorced him some time after Season 1, leaving him free to ogle Julie’s perky tits in Season 5.

Tanya Roberts (Julie Rogers) was sexy as hell back in the day.

R215=Ann B Davis

Salute to the one-season Angels!

The Hottest of All CA's!

Gorgeous!

The first show starts today.

I wonder why they skip the pilot

Why does Kate loathe Cheryl? Cheryl seems like a really sweet person.

Cheryl? Her bush stank!

Isn't Tanya the only one who did [italic]Playboy[/italic] aside from Farrah. (And in that one's case, she was batshit crazy and sliding into drug addiction dementia, so her consent practically didn't count?)

I can't even imagine how boring a pictorial any of the others (aside from maybe Ladd) would have produced.

Even putting Smith and Jackson together in a lezzie layout would put you to sleep.

The "Charlie's Angels" pilot was a 2-hour TV movie that aired on March 21, 1976.

This is the opening from the pilot. It's a little longer than the regular series opening. (This one has subtitles, but it's the clearest one I could find.)

^^ THE TOWNSEND AGENCY LOOKS DIFFERENT ! ! !

Why is Kate in the middle?

Because she was the top billed star. Over the course of the series Jaclyn crawled to first position.

Wasn’t Farrah the best known?

Kate was probably the best known when they cast and filmed the pilot. She had just been on the Rookies (another Spelling show) for a number of years and had been on Dark Shadows before that. Farrah broke out with Charlie's Angels.

r225, I noticed the pilot intro didn't use the Charlie's Angels logo. I guess the logo was introduced when the series premiered later that year (September 1976).

Jaclyn Smith was the least known of the actresses when the show began. She was a model who'd done some guest spots on shows, but Fawcett had worked far more in TV, and also done supporting roles in a few high profile motion pictures (LOGAN'S RUN and MYRA BRECKINRIDGE.)

I wonder how Raquel Welch reacted when she learned Fawcett had been asked to do some publicity pictures for [italic]Myra Breckinridge[/italic] in HER costumes!

Rare Carol Burnett appearance.

Cheryl can’t sing.

Do you think Julie Andrews got jealous at how blatantly Carol was eye-fucking Cheryl during that duet? Also why are they on the set of You Can't Do That On Television?

Cheryl Ladd was also fashioned herself as a recording artist on Capitol Records.

Wow, Kate Jackson really looked like shit in the first episodes. She looked good on the Rookies

The episode where they tried to highlight Cheryl’s questionable singing talent in Season 2 may be what turned off Kate.

I know it grossed me out as a baby gay. I felt the same way every time they tried to showcase Jaclyn’s abilities as a “dancer”.

I think Kate was just angry in general, and Cheryl was just an easy target. She was angry that what had been described to her as a somewhat intelligent series about women detectives degenerated into a jiggle and giggle show. Angry that producer Barney Rosenzweig left shortly into the first season. Angry that Farrah bailed after season 1. Angry that she couldn't jump start a film career. Angry that Spelling wouldn't let her to Kramer vs Kramer. Angry that her consolation prize was the dud Making Love. Take your pick.

Talk about bitter!

Charlie's Angels team up with Jaime Somers.

Sadly the interior artwork is crap.

I was a toddler when Cheryl Ladd released her Capitol Record albums. 2 of the first albums I ever had. Loved them!

Cheryl can't carry a tune.

I like her Top 40 song "Think It Over".

dooo dooo dooo dooo dooo. dooo dooo doooo doo doo. Think it OOOOOOOOOhhhhver.

How long has it been since you’ve been sprayed?

While we are talking about it. Why did the multiple TV reboots of Angels fail? Could it ever work on the small screen again in the age of "peak tv?"

What would need to change?

Angels In Chains episode is on MeTv today.

The guest cast of Angels in Chains was so well cast with actors you wouldn't see cast today. The appealingly butch Mary Woronov as Maxine, the other female guard that always looks like she smells something bad that punched Sabrina in the back, the obese sheriff, and the skinny, skeevy, pervy guard.

That was when you still had character actors in Hollywood. Now everyone cast is beautiful and untrained.

Did Cheryl steal Brenda (Piano in the Dark) Russell's hubby Brian?

Yup!

[quote]r235 Cheryl can’t sing.

How very dare you!

She was the voice for Melody on [italic]Josie and the Pussycats!

[quote]What would need to change?

Hard to tell. I can tell you what I was hoping for when the 2011 version started. Unlike the movie I hoped that the new show would get more depth in its stories. Not too much mind you. I thought the original Charmed from the 90s had a good balance of fluff and depth for that kind of show. The 2011 version of CA may have tried that but was bogged down by really disastrous writing and bad actors who couldn't save it. That show was so bad that I thought it was deliberately used as a tax write-off.

I would want them to retain the idea of sisterhood, but add decent brain to the characters. And unlike the movies, make sure that it's not all about action and sfx, but also about intriguing stories, maybe even a season long arc in the background.

Cheryl Ladd sang the National Anthem at the Super Bowl in 1980.

Cheryl Ladd at Super Bowl (1980).

This is the link:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K17k51bOx6g

Just click "Watch on YouTube" at r256. Cheryl did a pretty good job singing the National Anthem.

Anyone else see angels in chains on Me-TV today? They hacked thatpisode 2 pieces. Seems they completely cut the scene with Jaclyn Smith saying "how long has it been since you've been sprayed"? And also Farrah's classic line "I'm not a yo-yo"!! Maybe I wasn't watching close enough, but I swear both scenes were cut.

I remember some years back when they showed it on the ION network they cut a lot out too. Something like 6-7 minutes worth! For Angels in Chains, they condensed the shower/spraying scene and cut out the whole scene where Jill was giving the guy the massage at "the house" and getting caught trying to make the phone call.

Cheryl Ladd for The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2010.

Shelley Hack was very good in Scorsese's The King of Comedy.

R259 You're right. Who ever edited that episode should be shot. The delousing scene is the most classic scene in the series. Kelly's line is priceless. The whole scene of Jill massaging the guy could be cut. It really serves no purpose and was always missing in original syndication. When they original aired, these episodes were nearly 50 minutes. Now they have to be like 42.

Kelly should have asked Maxine "How long has it been since you've been fucked"?

I think Jill was more Maxine's type.

yeah, she liked the blonde. i think that other lesbian prison guard wanted to dominate Sabrina in every way.

Maxine wanted to give Jill a thorough strip search.

The other female guard did seem to have a thing for "sweet cheeks" Sabrina.

Kelly was the lust object for tall, skinny, skeevy male prison guard.

I guess Charlie is really cheap. He made the Angels drive Sabrina's car all the way to Louisiana.

Aaron Spelling was really cheap. He made Tiffany and Julie drive the fucking Pinto because he didn’t want to shoot new exteriors of the Townsend office.

[quote]r260 For [italic]Angels in Chains[/italic], they condensed the shower/spraying scene and cut out the whole scene where Jill was giving the guy the massage at "the house" and getting caught trying to make the phone call.

I want to speak to a manager.

You could tell she enjoyed hosing down Kelly the most.

Scarecrow dykes like Sabrina and tacky street hookers like Jill are a dime a dozen in penitentiaries across our great land. The classically beautiful Kelly Garrett would stand out, and catch prison guard Maxine's eye.

I loved how they were forced to work in the potato fields without gloves. Sabrina wanted a pair but didn’t have $20 to buy a pair from that butch female guard.

Brenda Dickson should have been an angel.

Well hello, Brenda!

I like to imagine a palsied Katharine Hepburn on the phone as Charlie.

Who saw this? I can't seem to find it anywhere [bold] : (

^ They never do a good job at casting counterfeit Kelly.

How long has it been since you've been sprayed?

Re: the video at r277

Correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think Kate Jackson would have been caught dead in a clingy cheerleader outfit with pom poms. That was Cheryl’s schtick

“A View To A Kill” earned a tepid 50 million at the box office (considering it’s a Janes Bond film). Nevertheless I believe that puts Tanya at the top of the 6 Angels if ranking their box office performances in terms of $$$.

I heard Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith were cancelled for singing racist show tunes? That wild, guys!!! I would never do anything like that!

However suggested Alice's Vera as an Angel is daft.

No one and I mean NO ONE wanted to see Beth Howland's "jiggle."

I don't think Beth had much to jiggle. She made Kate Jackson and Shelley Hack look curvy in comparison.

Beth's (somewhat embarrasing) screen test for the role of Julie.

Yes R168, however she was a Bond girl AFTER winning the Oscar. Was it the best she could do? And her career took a nosedive immediately after that!

Exposin' the others as the Flatty Patties they were.

Does Kate still hold a grudge against Spelling for not letting her have time off to do Kramer vs Kramer?

She's a bitter harpie who blames the whole WORLD for that, not just Spelling.

She could perhaps have redeemed herself by putting out a hit on Tori.

Does Kate attend the Dark Shadows conventions? For all her bitterness about everything, she has spoken very fondly of her time on that soap.

Why did Beth Howland's face look like skin stretched over skull?

Anorexia nervosa?

Its availale on dvd R277.

Only $7.99

All was going great at Howland's audition until she took her top off and exposed her breasts to Aaron Spelling.

R291 Kate Jackson has barely been out of the house in the last 10 years. .

the show opening used to be so simple: 'once upon a time there were three little girls who went to the police academy...'

to season 5: 'once upon a time, there were three little girls -two went to the police academy, one in Los Angeles, the other in San Francisco...the other girl...well, she was tough and would have been the most believable cop since Sabrina, but she didn't go to cop school; she went to a top school for models....and each reaped the rewards blah blah'

I suppose the real battle on DL should be between M and K - not M and G.

Wow, I'm trying to imagine Meryl in Scarecrow and Mrs. King and the tv version of Baby Boom and Kate in A Cry in the Dark...

haven't you ever heard of pancake tits?

[quote]r299 I'm trying to imagine Meryl in Scarecrow and Mrs. King and the tv version of Baby Boom and Kate in A Cry in the Dark...

There was a CHARLIE'S ANGELS thread about a year ago where we posted pics of Kate Jackson in Meryl roles.

It made me laugh -

Kate Jackson would never lower herself to do Ricki and the Flash!

She sure as hell had pancake tits!

Kate must be every dyke's wet dream...the perfect combo of beauty with a hint of masculinity.

Dustin treated Meryl like shit on that movie. Kate would have beat his ass and been fired so she shouldn't have expected great things to have come from that.

I am wondering if Tanya Roberts was a dyke dream for the ladies.

The whole show was a wet dream for lezzies. They all seemed like lipstick lezzies, especially Kate and Tanya.

What happened with Kate - she seemed relatively put together for the Aaron Spelling tribute with Farrah and Jaclyn years ago. That is the last time I remember her at a public event seeming normal. I think she hasn't acted since then?

R309 It was karma for making sure Cheryl was excluded from the tribute.

Cheryl is the nicest, sweetest, kindest human being. How could Kate dislike her so much?

Post-Angel Fashion and Businesswomanin'

According to Jaclyn, some days Kate would speak to Cheryl and other she wouldn't. She didn't seem to know why Kate didn't care for Cheryl. Kate was rarely happy on set. She almost always hated the scripts and complained often about them. It got really bad near the end of her run on the show and everyone except Jaclyn maybe was glad she was gone.

Jaclyn knows only too well why I hate that cunt.

All I know is that as a boy I never ever wanted to be Sabrina Duncan when I played CA.

Maybe because Cheryl a) became more popular than Kate almost immediately and b) because she is a conservative Trump lover.

I'm only going to ask this once:

Was Sabrina [italic]intended[/italic] to be a trans character ... or is that just how she read to audiences?

oh my fucking god - trans troll - please SHUT THE FUCK UP!

For a while Tanya Roberts was doing low budget films before That 70's Show came along and resurrected her career.

Cheryl and David Doyle! Jaclyn and Dennis Cole! Kate and Marlo!

With special appearances by John Wayne, Caitlin Jenner and America’s TV Sweetheart!

Jackie nabbed some gorgeous specimens of masculinity...Dennis Cole, Roger Davis. yummers.

[quote]Show was unwatchable at that point.

Right, like it was The Sopranos before Tanya.

Lucky bitches.

Finally heard Bosley mention his wife in today's MeTv rerun. Never noticed it before

in the first season, we learned Kelly was an orphan; Kate had an ex-husband AND a dad, as I recall; Boz an ex-wife; we learned later Jill had a sister.

They seemed to want to give backstories to these folks at some point.

The only show that delved into that in the future that I can recall is Ray Milland thinking Kelly was his daughter; sure, the finger paint prints didn't match Kelly's but did they ever explain Kelly's uncanny resemblance to Ray's character's wife?

I was the biggest Kate fan, but I'll always think Shelley got the shaft.

R304, a hint of masculinity? More like a boatload. Kate Jackson is as butch as they come. I think that's why she hated Cheryl so much. Cheryl was the cute helpless blonde. Lesbians hate that. At least with Farrah, she was athletic. Jaclyn, although beautiful, wasn't the cute damsel in distress. They did both star in Satans School for Girls so maybe there was bad blood prior to Cheryl joining CA. I still think it was just lesbo hostility.

[quote]r371 oh my fucking god - trans troll - please SHUT THE FUCK UP!

Well, I personally think being the first starring trans character on a major network show is pretty cool.

The Charlie’s Angels version of “Sure, Jan.”

Audrey was so pretty back then and not acting the bimbo thing with her far less talented sister.

r328, I agree. Audrey is a much more talented actress than her goofy sister. Audrey was very good as Cliff Barnes girlfriend on DALLAS.

Judy Landers was the epitome of a butterface. She had a Tori Spelling-like face. Poor thing.

I love the Teen Angels episode. I Audrey/Donna would've slapped that annoying, baby-voiced twat Cissy.

"Keep that mouth of yours shut!"

Judy became a gay icon working alongside Wayland and Madame, though.

Judy was cute.

....from the neck down. I'm sure her body made many men ejaculate though.

R327, you know it's true. Bulldyke lesbians HATE cute little blonds unless they think they can get into their pants.

r334, I'm no lesbian, but I surely don't like you. You're not a pleasant person.

When Audrey was on Somerset there was an article about her family and the father was not mentioned. Judy was butt ugly and an aspiring gymnast. The mother was the typical stage mother. Later Audrey tried to shave 3 years off her age and the father responded in TV Guide no less - that Audrey was the breadwinner in the family at that time and well over 18.

classy . . .

Audrey Landers was on Somerset??!! She really was good as Afton on Dallas, though when they would show her singing in that club, it was pretty embarrassing.

I don't give a fuck about Audrey Landers!!!!!! This is a Charlie's Angels thread and that bitch was like in one episode!

Julie BUMPs.

Let our Angel thread live!!!

The one in white underwear looks like Alaska.

Tanya looks terribly underweight in that still with Mama Michelle and Papa Urich.

Met Cheryl Ladd over the weekend at Chiller Theatre. She looked great, of course anyone would look great with Joan Van Ark near by (My God that poor woman). She was very sweet.

I love Cheryl Ladd!

There was a DL poster here last year who kept insisting that Cheryl was at death’s door and that we heard it here first!

Cheryl at the Chiller Show

Have Kate and Shelley ever met?

Kate and Tanya met

Cheryl does look great there. She's 67, her face lift has settled pretty well (she was too tight for a while), her hair coloring isn't too much, and her teeth and hands don't look "aged."

Where's the photo of Joan Van Ark?

Love that pic onof Cheryl. She loves her fans on twitter.

Season 5 certainly had some scuzzy villains--Margo, the guy who brainwashed Julie in Attack Angels, Dan Haggerty , and Jack Albertson as a murderous dirty old man.

[quote]Where's the photo of Joan Van Ark?

Right here. WARNING: It can't be unseen!

OMG Joan is only 76 years old and she looks like melting wax. Did she sue the plastic surgeon? That is just not right.

For crying out loud, r352! She looks like Madame from "Madame's Place".

In r352, Van Ark looks like some male soap opera star I can't place.

Maybe Anthony Geary?

R348 Who's the lesbian in the middle?

That’s Cheryl after her last facelift.

Wow, Tanya was cute. I didn't appreciate her at the time. She looks like a high-end 70s rock-n-roll groupie.
