I saw it on ME TV & it was cool. I saw Season 5 episode "He married an Angel". All these Angels looked hot but especially Tanya Roberts although they're ALL way too skinny! It was nice & nostalgic seeing how they did things back then which is refreshing too see compared to modern shows.

This absolutely BLOWS AWAY that horrible Angels movie in the early 2000s where NONE of the Angels were hot enough to qualify!

Hard to believe both Charlie & Bosley are gone.

Great, SitcomsHeyDayFan. I too have seen Original CA on METV in recent months because most of the episodes are easy to watch.

Lucky you. I doubt Fort Wayne ever gets a Me TV affiliate. :(

Wait for season 1 to come back around and start watching from the beginning... those are the classic episodes.

'Skinny' was in! You never saw thick women on tv back then. I think bras came back in style in the early 80's. :eek:

Nostalgia is why most of us re-watch these old shows. It's nice to see the girls at their physical peak, but it's also interesting to see their clothes and hairstyles change with the times.

I'm a bit of a car buff and I like the older Fords/Lincolns they drove. My Dad had a LTD like Bosley's, but it was dark blue. My uncle had Sabrina's Pinto, but it was brown... same exact year, plaid seat pattern and spoke hubcaps. Most fans don't realize that Bree had 2 Pinto's... a 1977 base model and a '78 with some upgrades. The '78 had a bit more horsepower, a tangerine interior, black steering wheel and black control panel.

I see it on Direct TV but yes channel 24 is one of the local channels I get on Direct TV. I'm sure your cable or satellite provider could get ME TV from the nearest town of they wanted.

Fort Wayne is not Hooterville or anything so I'm kinda surprised you don't already have it.

The 1973 independent film, The Doll Squad, is said to be the inspiration for Charlie's Angels. The head doll is actually named Sabrina!

I have seen it, and you should too.

I wonder if those involved in this movie got paid any residuals from Spelling "borrowing" the idea. ?

Always thought Cheryl was a replacement for Farrah so it was
a surprise to see them both in the same episode on TV the other day
Jaqueline made up the trio

The writing was lacking in many episodes of Charlie's Angels. The same can be said for Wonder Woman although Wonder Woman was maybe slightly better.
