[QUOTE="ClassyCo, post: 366239, member: 7"] I had to look both of them up. I had never even heard of them. This definitely seems to be the most plausible answer. You're right. Most shows -- regardless to the genre or quality -- rely heavily on the likability of their cast. That's what made the first three seasons of ANGELS work. It had good, likable actresses playing the leads, and that bled through on-screen (even though Jackson and Ladd "weren't that close"). A good little rundown on the pilot: [MEDIA=youtube]FYWcwFTJFX4[/MEDIA] Had the replacement for Kate Jackson been at least better executed -- because Shelley Hack really wasn't really that bad, or at least not to me -- and had the writer's strike hadn't happened in 1980, I do think CHARLIE'S ANGELS might've had another season in it. Another season could've been squeezed out, even in the ratings dipped. [/QUOTE]
