Charlie's Angels

Waikiki Angels - S5-E6

Character mistake: At the Life Guard Trials, Kelly is the first Angel to arrive. She finishes 20th. Then, four other competitors arrive (21st / 22nd / 23rd / 24th). Then, Kris arrives. The judge says to her "You're 23." (00:11:15)

Circus of Terror - S2-E7

Character mistake: The German dialogue between the ringmaster and the knife-thrower makes sense, but the words are spoken in a very awful way - hardly learned by heart and so wrongly pronounced, No German talks like that. (00:20:47 - 00:21:09)

Magic Fire - S2-E13

Character mistake: Bosley and the Angels are in the office and they discuss the case they have just solved. Bosley calls Charlie "Charles", which despite being correct is definitely odd. Nobody has ever called Charlie by his given name. (00:45:50)

Angel Baby - S2-E11

Character mistake: Sabrina, Kris and Bosley are discussing a girl who has just died. Her name is Annette, as it has been repeated several times. However, in one line, Bosley says "Angela's mother", rather than "Annette's mother". (00:25:40)

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.

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.
