Visible crew/equipment: During the final chase, Jaclyn Smith's double stuntwoman is extremely evident. (00:43:45)
Charlie's Angels (1976)
Starring: Cheryl Ladd, Kate Jackson, Jaclyn Smith, David Doyle
Unidentified Flying Angels - S2-E9
Continuity mistake: During the flight, Kelly gives Britten the OK sign (thumbs up). In the first shot, she uses her right thumb; but, in the next shot she uses her left thumb. (00:30:20)
Plot hole: After Sabrina and Tarloff have finished their rehearsal, Kris is able to pick the real sword with no hesitation. There are still six swords left in the basket (one is real, five are fake). They all look the same, so how could Kris know the exact position of the real one? (00:43:30)
Trivia: John Forsythe was never on the set - his voice was recorded, and dubbed in later.
Trivia: The original actor who had been cast as Charlie had a drinking problem, and couldn't deliver his lines properly. John Forsythe got called up by creator Aaron Spelling after midnight on a Friday night and was asked to record lines ASAP because the show had to be aired Monday night. He headed straight down to the studio at 20th Century Fox, still in his slippers and pyjamas, recorded the lines and went straight back to bed.
Trivia: The only Angel to last the entire series was Kelly, played by Jaclyn Smith.
Question: Having never seen the show, do any episodes show Charlie's face at all? Not just some of his face.
Question: How is it possible that Kelly got shot in the head two separate times and is still a private eye?
Answer: She had the kind of incredibly fortunate recoveries that only television writers can provide.
Question: Why Is Tanya Robert a former model and not a cop? I've never read any explanation as to why.
Answer: After going through a number of cast changes that failed to improve the show's slumping ratings, Tanya Roberts' character was added as "street-wise" former model. This was probably an effort to give a different and edgier character dimension to the show.

Answer: No, Charlie's face was never fully seen. In addition, Charlie was voiced by John Forsythe and he never even came to the set. Whenever we do see Charlie, it's a body double and not Forsythe.
