Editorial Reviews

"Charlie’s Angels," TV’s original "T&A" series, became an instant cultural phenomenon, shooting to the top of the Nielsen ratings after its debut on September 22, 1976 and made overnight stars of its original crime-fighting "Angels" – Farrah Fawcett-Majors, Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith. Now see how the sexy girls-with-guns drama series that spawned two hit feature films began and ended its tumultuous first season.

1.0 out of 5 stars even if you are a die hard fan this is hard to watch, April 11, 2005

This review is from: Behind the Camera - Charlie's Angels (DVD)

While the book this was based on (Charlie's Angels Casebook) had some great insight on one of my all time favorite shows - the movie version does little to shed any real light on the coming and going of the Angels. The recreation of David Doyles Bosley is a travesty and a true disservice to his memory. Kate Jackson (although the most convincing played by any of the actresses)is a beer bottle guzzling hard ass. No wonder Kate posted on her own website asking people to NOT watch this film when it originally aired on television. Farrah was so upset by the movie and all of the presumptions made of her life at the time that she refuses to even discuss the film. While all of these behind the scenes films are geared toward the lowest common denominator - This one reaches to the very bottom of the trash heap to entertain(?)

3.0 out of 5 stars This should have been a two part mini series or something., February 24, 2007

R. D. WILLIAMS "RDW" (NEWQUAY, U.K.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Behind the Camera - Charlie's Angels (DVD)

This movie mainly focuses on the controversy about Farrah Fawcette decision to leave the show after the first season, her relationship with actor Lee Majors and the court battle with Producer Aarron Spelling.

To me, this T.V. movie about the show, should have been made into a two part series. From what I have read over the years about the show, the real "drama" began during the start of the second season and it is now known that, Kate Jackson and Cheryl Ladd did not get along at all. Not only that, but also Ms. Jackson's feud with both Aarron Spelling and Leonard Goldberg.

Also, it would have been more interesting if, the movie went more indepth about the other stars personal lives and how the show was affecting their relationships as well. People don't realize, but during Charlies Angels run, Kate Jackson, Jacklyn Smith and Cheryl Ladd all got divorces from their spouses.

3.0 out of 5 stars This Should Be Called The Farrah Fawcett Story, February 10, 2007

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Behind the Camera - Charlie's Angels (DVD)

...since it is told from the point of view of her Manager at the time (presumably the only way NBC, which owns nothing realted to Charlie's Angels could get it made). Everyone is competent and for anyone who really loves the show it will be worth it to see even a little "behind the scenes" talk. But the emphasis on Farrah and the lack of of much drama don't make for a really compelling film. And given that for many fans, Jaclyn Smith is seen as the real backbone of the show, the slim attention to her and her storyline will be frustrating. Better to buy the full season sets... but if you're waiting for the next one, you might enjoy this.
