ø CHARLIE'S ANGELS

Charlie's Angels is a television series about three women who work for a private investigation agency, and is one of the first shows to showcase women in roles traditionally reserved for men. The series was broadcast in the USA on the ABC Television Network from 1976 to 1981 and was one of the most successful series of the 1970s. Charlie's Angels was created by Ivan Goff and Ben Roberts and produced by Aaron Spelling and Leonard Goldberg.



Three women, the Angels (originally Kate Jackson, Farrah Fawcett-Majors, and Jaclyn Smith), graduated from the Los Angeles police academy only to be assigned such duties as handling switchboards and directing traffic. They quit and were hired to work for the Charles Townsend Agency as private investigators. Their boss, Charlie (voiced by John Forsythe), is never seen full face — in some episodes the viewer gets to see the back of his head and his arms, talking through a phone while surrounded by beautiful women — assigning cases to the Angels and his liaison, Bosley (played by David Doyle), via a speaker phone.  [wikipedia]

foongpc ~ not that I can remember thought at one episode Charlie's house at the beach got bombed and Angels may have a chance to see him and we sort of getting ready on standby but still the same mysterious ending 'so near and yet so far' just like the same scenario now "Charlie = foongpc = no face" no blogger has ever seen (except those you 'lunched' with) you before. hehe.. :)
