"Boob" Tube Memories

Charlie's Angels

I used to love this show when I was a teen. Obviously, not for the same reason as other teen boys. I used to think it was great tv. After seeing reruns years later, I now realize that it was total crapola, with bad acting, dialog and storylines.

.

Each week was just an excuse to get the girls in as less as clothes as possibly. The T & A was so overdone, that I bet in the script it actually said "Boing, Boing, Boing" to indicate that the acteresses had to do a running scene.

.

It was so controversial at the time, due to the jiggle factor. But compared to the "Murder TV" that is on today, it was all very harmless.

.

Farrah Fawcett-Majors once attributed the show's success to this fact:

"When the show was number three, I figured it was our acting. When it got to be number one, I decided it could only be because none of us wears a bra."
