Cheryl Ladd felt shunned - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

McGillicuddy · 10-12-2009, 10:08 PM

When Farrah passed away, there was an article about the reaction of the other angels, and Cheryl was reported as saying she felt hurt when Farrah, Kate and Jaclyn reunited at the tribute to Aaron Spelling. She said Kate planned it that way and that was that. She wasn't very close to Farrah, as they only appeared together for 6 episodes, and she and Jaclyn are fast friends. I saw she was at Farrah's funeral, though, as well as Kate and Jaclyn.

I heard something about that. What I didn't know was that she was at Farrah's funeral.

When they showed people that were there on one of the entertainment shows,they showed her. Also Lee Majors. And of course Jaclyn, Kate.

That was nice of Lee to come - knowing that they didn't exactly part on the best of terms.

I'm sure he loved her and was hurt when he heard about her death. I don't know the details of their parting. I just remember seeing them together. I was kind of shocked when I heard that they had broken up after having been together for so long!

Yes, they were together for several years before marrying in 1973. Then in 1979, Farrah left Lee for his best friend - Ryan O'Neal!

It's ego talking. Cheryl was a replacement for Farrah -- and they weren't close personally and had only worked together on a few shows -- so I think it made sense to just have the originals reunite.

Get over yourself, Cheryl!

I get your point, but on the other hand Cheryl Ladd was an angel for FOUR years, second only to Jaclyn's five, and longer than both Kate (3) and Farrah (1).

They could still do that reunion movie with just Jaclyn, Kate, and Cheryl.

No offense, bliss, but I think reunions are best left undone.

I agree with the late Bea Arthur: I'd rather remember them when they were young and in their prime.

I think it was Susan Olsen who once said that reunion shows are like train wrecks - you can't NOT watch. Retrospectives/clip shows are fine and good, but actual scripted reunions are hit or miss - mostly miss.

^True, but yet there's something about seeing a new reunion story with the characters older and looking different, and also seeing how the sets have changed. You want to see what's changed since "the last time".

I guess I can see that, but there's also something to be said for leaving well enough alone.

I agree with the DR................

Cheryl should get over it already. How old is she? It's time to grow up. The original Charlie's angels fans remember the story from the beginning. She's lucky to have been a part of this phenomenom.

That's exactly why Elizabeth Montgomery never wanted to do a Bewitched reunion - she said they'd never be able to top the original (besides, without Agnes Moorehead, it wouldn't have been a REAL reunion!). That's also why she thought her ex-husband Bill Asher was nuts for directing reunion shows for I Dream of Jeannie and Green Acres!!
