Trivia
This show was in the top ten for its first two seasons: 1976 to 1977 number five, 1977 to 1978 number four, competing in a three way tie with 60 Minutes (1968) and All in the Family (1971). Midway through season three, when Kate Jackson announced her impending departure, the show slipped out of the top ten to number twelve. When Shelley Hack became Jackson's replacement, the ratings dropped even further to number twenty. The ratings slide continued, and Hack was let go. Tanya Roberts was hired to replace Hack, but the ratings didn't improve, plummeting to an abysmal number fifty-nine. The show never recovered, and was cancelled at the end of its fifth season.
Quotes
Charlie:
Once upon a time, there were three little girls who went to the Police Academy; and they were each assigned very hazardous duties. But I took them away from all that, and now they work for me. My name is Charlie.
Goofs
With hardly any exception, whenever the angels went "undercover", they always used their real first and last name. This wouldn't occur in real life.
