"Angie's" ratings were actually better in the spring of 1979, when it followed "Mork and Mindy" on Thursday nights. In the fall of 1979, ABC moved several of their shows around. "Laverne and Shirley" moved to Thursday. "Mork and Mindy" moved to Sunday. "Fantasy Island" moved to Friday. And "Angie" moved to Tuesday. When the ratings were disasterous, ABC tried to move everything back. However, "Benson" was in "Angie's" old Thursday time slot and was getting good ratings. So "Angie" had to move to Friday and ended up with low ratings and was cancelled.
