Cheryl Ladd on ABC's "Generation Gap" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I'll be the first to admit that I really don't like shows or games like this. You know the type that pits baby boomers against millennials or Gen Z and what not. The stuff that Ellen DeGeneres or Jimmy Kimmel would do on their talk shows.

I'm not too surprised that the children that were featured on Generation Gap wouldn't immediately recognize Cheryl Ladd or know who she is. I mean, Charlie's Angels went off the air back in 1981, which must be at least, a good 30+ years before these kids were even born.

Still, I don't know if I should feel horrible and embarrassed for Cheryl considering that she along with Jaclyn Smith, was pretty much the "face" of a legit pop cultural phenomenon like Charlie's Angels.
