My all-time favorite tv show from the 70s is hands down "Charlie's Angels". This show caught my attention like no other, and I watched it faithfully up until the last Tanya Roberts episode. Of course, you can't beat the original cast in Season One (Farrah, Kate, and Jaclyn), but I do love me some Cheryl Ladd, who did an amazing job in her own right. I did give Shelley Hack and Tanya Roberts a chance, and didn't dislike them... but let's be real, some of the magic had dimmed by that point.
