Shelley was actually one of my favorites on CA. She still looks great!

Marvo301 · 03-05-2010, 07:03 PM

She's hardly changed at all!

Shelley looks great! I really liked her as Tiffany on CA.

She still looks good. I think she was unfairly blamed for CA's rating decline. The show was going to decline anyway after Kate Jackson left.

Interestingly, someone who had read the Charlie's Casebook stated that Shelley's first episode was actually #1 in the ratings, and that the episodes afterward had done well. In fact, apparently, Aaron Spelling had announced that the show had successfully survived Kate Jackson's departure. Ironically, the first time the show took a nose dive was when Farrah Fawcett's first guest appearance aired in the fourth season. I think the episode was called Fallen Angel. I don't know how true it is since I don't have the book, but someone stated this on another board.

I liked Shelley too. Yeah, she got a bad rap! She should have been kept on through season 5.

I agree markway. I liked Shelley. She was a great angel. Tiffany was kind of like a more laid back Nancy Drew. In fact, I think I would of liked Season 5 a lot better if Shelley had stayed. I liked her chemistry with Kris, Kelly, and Bosley.

And Tiffany, Kelly, and Kris had a sweet friendship, and of all the trios, they seemed like the trio most likely to have the most in common and actually hang out together -- outside of work.

I can see Tiffany, Kelly, and Kris shopping together, going to the spa together, going to a play or going skiing together.

either another season with Tanya or just leave well enough alone and keep Shelly where she was, and there would have been a season 6.

I stopped watching the show when Kate left. I know a lot of other people who did the same thing. Even today I don't watch episodes with Shelley or Tanya. They look good, but they were sub-par actresses.

S4 premiere was number 1 with 28.0/45

How popular was Tanya Robert's character in Charlie's Angels? I thought she would be less popular than Shelley Hack. But IDK I never watched it at this point. Shelley just seemed more known than Tanya was I thought?

I agree. Also, by the time Tanya showed up, the show had already run it's course. Tanya was beautiful, but she came on board at a bad time. The writing/scripts had gotten worse and the audience was really over CA by that point. I don't believe the majority of fans cared about Shelley's and Tanya's acting ability.

How do you know they were sub-par actresses if you never watched their episodes??

I remember before she starred on Charlie's Angels, Shelley appeared on the "Charlie" perfume commercials.

A couple of them can be seen on Youtube.
