Instead of the one-season misfire with Shelley Hack? Her movie career had stalled big time and it would be a few years before she turned it around with The Burning Bed. Maybe she wanted too much money or something so the show was canceled soon afterwards.

Spelling would've had to pay her a fortune. Also, Farrah hated working the 6 day, 14-16 hours a day. She stressed that during many interviews. Her guest episodes during season 3 and 4 had the highest ratings.

Really? Some posters who read the "Charlie's Angels" Casebook stated that during the 4th season, Farrah's guest episodes were some of the lowest. In fact, Farrah's last guest appearance in the 4th season, was apparently the lowest episode in the entire 4th season.

Not the 3rd season. The show was wearing thin by the 4th season and overall ratings were already falling. It wasn't because of Farrah's guest appearance, which is what you seem to be suggesting.

I'm a Farrah Fan/Jill Munroe fan. However, I was going by what other posters who had read the book stated. I haven't read the book yet. But I wasn't talking about the 3rd season. I was talking about the 4th season. And, yes, the rating were falling, but it was stated that each time Farrah appeared it took a dip in the ratings and that her last guest appearance was the lowest in the entire series. Sure, the rating were falling but I'm still shocked that Farrah's last episode was the lowest. Why wasn't the other episodes without Farrah not the lowest? I was just shocked that her last episode was the lowest in the entire series.

I can't remember if there was backlash against Farrah similar to what Suzanne Sommers experienced when she left 'Three's Company'. If there was, it's couldn't have been that bad. Maybe the viewing audience was tired of being saturated with Farrah? I was only 12, but clearly remember seeing her face everywhere back then.
