Charlie's Angels Original Cast Reunion 1998 | Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson, Jaclyn Smith 

@Rookielove1 Ah, there's Rookielove1 piping in ever so often (sometimes years apart)to boost Cheryl Ladd and usually to talk down Kate Jackson. Sometimes your posts are years apart. Wow. Cheryl was wonderful as Kris and was my 2nd favorite angel (after Kate/Sabrina) but they all brought something to the show. But you cannot put Shelley Hack and Tanya Roberts on the same level as the original 3 and Cheryl. David Doyle was awesome! May he RIP.

I believe three beautiful, strong Southern women.

@@nomiddlenamenmn427 I like that better.

I always thought Kate is beautiful and intelligent! Her Sabrina Duncan was my favorite character on CA. I always played Sabrina when my friends and I played CA.

I'm not sure Kate Jackson looks happy - she squirms throughout the fashion stuff

@@sibionic she lost a lot of weight during Charlie's Angels. Almost too much. Maybe she had some body issues going on ?

Scarecrow and mrs king was cool

@@sibionic The fashion stuff was awful. They could have talked about much more interesting things.

@@originalangelsforever6535 yes, although there's no love lost between the three. Smith and Fawcett were good friends but Kate Jackson (I think) had cut ties with them years before.

I thing she is ..so !

All were CLASSY ! 😇😇😇

Good God!!!

Jaclyn is a amazing woman 😍

I thought Jaclyn is the Most Beautiful

I must be a gen exer too.

The chemistry with Cheryl was just as amazing

@@swolfe9668 I am not knocking Cheryl but most people agree with me that the 1st season had the best chemistry between All THREE. You can see in the 2nd and 3rd year that there was tension between Kate and Cheryl. Not saying it was Cheryl’s fault but it definitely showed.

Thank you for acknowledging they are women and not girls. 😊

I agree totally. I was 10 when the show started.

@@lizpitula2471 Me too and this show was my life at that age LOL. I was truly heartbroken when Farrah decided to leave. These 3 together had the best rapport and you could see they really liked each other!!! No better combination of beautiful ladies ever existed.

@@tonybuc67 , I disagree. All the ladies were great on the show.

The original Angels were the best! No one came close.

+asshole12345ization Yes above all fun + our beautiful butt kicking original angels!!!!!

Jacqueline Smith was gorgeous so ain't no Jacqueline aside Jacqueline had it too people always assume Farrah was the prettiest because she was the blonde but there was plenty of Brunettes That was just as pretty as Blondes

Jaclyn was far prettier than Farrah but Farrah had a magic charm about her aura that gave her something extra. It wasn't all about their looks.

Kate Jackson is criminally underrated! She was alluring and had the extra something.

I feel bad for Kate. She could have had a major film career (you are “hot” in the film industry for a brief hot moment). After Charlie’s Angels, she was in flops such as Topper, Dirty Tricks, Inmates: A Love Story, and Thin Ice. She was great in Making Love, though, her comeback.

@@nomiddlenamenmn427 Kate was amazing in Making Love. But also in Inmates and Thin Ice. The thing is, she always elevated the material, even when a script was not that good. She is one of the best actresses.

Paul Michael Glaser & David Soul AKA Starsky & Hutch

Mahuika Anderson nah , Cheryl Ladd

Mahuika Anderson Totally agree with you. KATE JACKSON all the way :-)

I agree! That wasn't nice. Jaclyn is so incredibly vain and always has been as if this was the most important thing. Kate proved that she could be very sexy without doing the glam and skimpy outfit thing all the time. She was cool, daring, caring and fun. And she was NEVER prissy. THAT was what made the show cool to watch.

@@Kandik93I agree. Kate was beautiful and highly intelligent. She made being smart and sexy very cool.

Farrah got cut out of the Goldie Hawn hit "Foul Play"!

Thank you for not referring to them as girls. These are women, strong and beautiful.

Was one of my favorite shows

Jaclyn was beautiful and so were the other Angels. Sadly she has had too much plastic surgery and botox. It's time to stop it, Jaclyn!

JS is from Houston Texas, hardly a east coast type…

FFM was also born n raised in Texas as well n KJ born and raised in Birmingham Al

@@maryeverling8238 Jaclyn was from Texas too but I was referring to their characters

The 80s rule.

The 90's rule.

Now Tanya's dead January 2021.

We do not know the reasons for Kate and Cheryl not getting along. Therefore it’s not fair to put all the blame on Kate. Kate was a strong woman and she was the one who stood up for better scripts and better working conditions for the girls (they wouldn't listen to her and the show went downhill when she left). So no wonder the patriarch executives started calling her bitch. Because when a woman stands up to improve things like she did, to better the show, she'll be called that... How nice... And something many are not aware of, without Kate Jackson there’d never have been Charlie’s Angels. She co-created it with the producers and she was the one who came up with the name of the show and the idea of the concept that has been so succesful. And she clearly was the best actress among all the angels. There's no doubt about it. By far. She was a pro, the backbone of the show and the true star who didn't have to wear skimpy clothes. What made her stand out was her unique beauty, fantastic acting skills and her charisma. UPDATE:So I said this ^^^^ in April 2020. Only two months later I learned more and it's about time to clear things up. Be aware that this is the sugar-coated version of what someone from behind the scenes said. The way the guy said it was very harsh because he was so pissed off at the haters who constantly keep bashing Kate Jackson in a very unfair and mean way. He worked on the set when they shot the first couple seasons and he didn't like what he witnessed when Ms. Ladd joined Charlie's Angels. He says Kate was very nice to people, including the people working on the set who weren't "stars". People liked her. She was more down to earth in many ways. Farrah was very sweet, and she had a great sense of humor in the sense that she'd laugh at everyone's jokes. The other girls loved her. The guy says that set was a madhouse. It drove him crazy. Hair and make-up (people) were always flying around between takes, and it drove Kate crazy. Jaclyn wasn't too crazy about it either. Farrah didn't seem to mind. Then Farrah left and Cheryl came along. She was sort of a diva and ordered people around. For example she ordered someone to get her a soft drink once, and the poor girl brought her the wrong one. Cheryl got really mad.... The guy says that Kate hated her for that shit. Kate was a pro - she never treated people like that. Plus Cheryl was a big time Republican and very conservative while Kate was a big liberal. He also says that people have to understand Farrah had been a ray of sunshine on that set. She was always so pleasant and happy. Things were different with Cheryl. She was a nuisance from day one. That created a LOT of tension, particularly given the comparison. Cheryl was not a friendly girl. That's the summary. It's interesting that Ladd has admitted that she ordered people around to bring her soft drinks and that she had let success get to her head when she was on Angels.

This message was for Mr. S. Sutton who is no longer on RU-vid because he got kicked out for his ongoing sexist, rude and cheap posts against Kate Jackson. Thank you RU-vid for doing the right thing! To put ALL the blame on Kate is simply unfair and cheap. About scripts getting worse. She was a perfectionist and kept asking for better ones and was persistent. And like we all know the producers refused to allow Kate the time off to do „Kramer vs. Kramer“ so eventually Meryl Streep got the role that won her an Oscar. How devastating for an actress! So no surprise Kate got really frustrated about these things! Those 70’s machos sure hated it to have an assertive woman on the set. As long as a woman did as being told and wore skimpy outfits they adored her. If not…..... When a man is outspoken he gets praise. When a woman does the same they hate and insult her! A typical sexist attitude! Even today.

@@19CALI_sunnyv Kate was evil!

​@@stephy7475 Why would you say an ugly and stupid thing like that? What are you talking about???

@@19CALI_sunnyv What she has done to Cheryl besides she never let cheryl took part in any reunions.

idem fan france

Yes it did. I became a big fan after she made that movie. She was awesome in it and finally got the recognition she deserved.

Farrah and Kate both had work done.

@@marcusburroughs5293 and Jacyln too-

Jaclyn wasn't able to carry the show. She needed Kate by her side. Jaclyn said she hated to see Kate go. They are still close friends to this day.

And the beauty!

...and funny..

What about the other women's brains?

Robert Wagner was the one who pushed to have Jaclyn Smith on Charlies Angels. He had worked with her before on his other shows, Switch and It Takes a Thief. It was supposed to be a blonde, a brunette and a red head but RJ insisted on Jaclyn and he was a producer of the show, at the time I believe.

Spot on, Kandik! Jaclyn got the role because of her porcelain doll beauty. That's it. Flawless but somewhat dull. Her audition had been a disaster. So as Lori said, Robert Wagner pushed to have Jaclyn on the show. Frankly she always was just sort of there. Beautiful but her lines always sounded rehearsed. Whereas Farrah was the phenom. Her poster, hair and teeth, nipples, charisma. But she was not really an actress at that point. Had no range. Bottoml line: Kate Jackson created the show, carried the show, was a phenomenal actress, was just as gorgeous (yes!!) and had great charisma!! To say she was "the smart one" and she loved turtlenecks doesn't do her any justice. And Jaclyn knows that. Should know that! So that was a silly thing to say. Charlie's Angels went downhill when Kate Jackson left! And the other Angels owe her their fame. Kate deserves a lot more recognition!

This is what I have heard a lot. The fittings for the outfits took a lot of time on top of the 15 hours shooting a day. I think Kate pushed that she didn’t want to be fitted so when ever possible they would just give her a shirt and she would stand behind the bar. So the other girls might have resented Kate for getting her way when fashion was such a huge part of the show and the time the others put into that part of it.

@@elizabritton4039 While it is true that Kate loved to stand behind the bar so she could wear jeans and a lovely top, most scenes were not behind the bar. And Jaclyn pointed out more than once that Kate was not into the whole fashion thing but she and Farrah loved it. In fact they loved to go to Rodeo Drive and get the latest fashion for the show. They had no reason to resent Kate for not wanting to do all the costume fittings. Kate, Farrah and Jaclyn were close friends until Farrah passed away. And Jaclyn and Kate are still close to this day.

Seems like a non-issue.

+everythingisaprocess Her looks are probably the result of very bad relationships with these abusive men she wrongfully falls for, but yeah still love her and may she rest in peace...

Looks aren't everything though and beauty is in the eye of the beholder.Everyone sees beauty differently.Jaclyn is my favourite though,she always had the face of an angel.I work with a girl who looks a lot like her,except she has little freckles on her cheeks and is really petite,short.

I think Kate's lack of fondness for Cheryl comes out of the fact that Farrah was gone. Her anger was mis-directed at Cheryl, but it's understandable. She must have felt that someone was coming in to replace her good friend Farrah. Regardless, I think that Cheryl did a fine job on the show and it must have been tough for her to come in to a show like that.

CatLady 493 in an interview -which you find on you tube- Cheryl Ladd admitted to letting success get to her. She would have somebody get her coffee. She started to party lots which led to her marriage end. That divorce woke her up. Then she met her second husband who was also a divorcée with a young daughter. Together with her 2nd husband and their financial collapse kept them humble and realistic as they rebuilt their careers. Farrah, Kate, and Jaclyn had all been in the Hollywood scene and around other celebrities long enough to know not to act like a diva because it doesn’t take much to fall out in Hollywood

The reason why Kate kept Cheryl at arm's length was the fact that Cheryl behaved like a diva on the set. Kate was a pro and hated how Cheryl treated some people on the set. Plus Cheryl was a big time right-winger. And Kate was a liberal Democrat. Go figure.

Silly comment, they’re all aging well

Jaclyn has always been like a Barbie doll. Never appealed to me. I always preferred Kate and Farrah.

I agree. I cringed when I heard the intro and the 3 women were referred to as “little girls.”

I agree. She fought so hard to live.

This was in 1998. Actually Farrah was diagnosed with cancer on September 22, 2006.
