Continuity mistake: Pilot Episode: The Angels have gathered and the slideshow with the mission briefing is starting. Kate Jackson turns around and puts her glass next to the ink stamp, but when the desk is shown at an angle from the front displaying projector, Bosley and the guy with the horrible 'do that won't be in the rest of the series, then the glass is not present. (00:04:00)
Charlie's Angels (1976)
1 continuity mistake in Season 1 generally
Starring: Cheryl Ladd, Kate Jackson, Jaclyn Smith, David Doyle
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: The only Angel to last the entire series was Kelly, played by Jaclyn Smith.
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.
