[edit] HOT OFF THE PRESS, Charlie and his Angels coming to the “I network”

I have a friend who works for ION who has assured me that over the next few days the TV Network will be announcing that it is going to start airing Charlie’s Angels. They will be having an Angels kickoff Marathon on Friday September 22 to mark the 30th anniversary. I just went to www.ionline.tv and sure enough there is information posted regarding Charlie’s Angels.

[edit] Inspiring Delta Force operators ?

I read the Delta Force operators called themselves (in the early 80s) "Charlie's Angels", in reference to the creator of the unit, colonel Charles A. "Chargin' Charlie" Beckwith. So, (because the serie begun in 1976, before the creation of the Delta Force), I supposed that the nickname was coming from the serie. Rob1bureau 17:38, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ayn Rand

Ayn Rand was a huge fan of Charlie's Angels. I think this should be mentioned. - Stormwatch 15:34, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

I don't. Then again, I'm not a huge fan of Ayn Rand. Trekphiler 15:59, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spelling Check

So, is it Angels's, Angels, Angel's, or Angels'? Somebody call Buffy. David Boreanaz 15:59, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

In this case "Charlie" is possessive -> Charlie's and "Angel" is plural -> Angels = Charlie's Angels Pisceandreams 17:03, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Who's on first?

Anybody know who was the first Angel Charlie hired? (I seem to recall, from the title sequence, it was Sabrina, but...) Trekphiler 07:03, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Sureley, it'd be Bosley -Logotu (talk) 22:28, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Bollywood Movie Ashanti

"Ashanti" a 1981 bollywood movie directed by an Indian director Prakash Mehra had its theme based on the original story of Charlie's Angels. It starred 3 leading actresses of hindi cinema at that time namely Parveen Babi, Zeenat Aman and Shabana Azmi in it. Its a worth watching movie.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Charlies angels 1st season dvdcover.jpg

Image:Charlies angels 1st season dvdcover.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:05, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] List of Angels

I cleaned up this section as it was far too long (and very unorganized). I listed all angels in one list and relabeled it 'Chronology of Angels'

The information on the different versions of the show was moved to the 'Pop Culture' section, since these reinterpretations of the show qualify as being part of that section. --Pisceandreams 13:01, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Outline Overhaul, Angel Appearances, Episode List

I rearranged many sections of this article into a more logical, flowing order. I moved 'Video Games,' 'Films,' 'Comics,' etc. into the 'Pop culture Impact' section because all of these are a result of that.

I also inserted a link to the list of Charlie's Angels episodes.

Last, I added a new section titled 'Angel Appearances' where one can list their appearances together in support of the show. The original angels' appearance on the 2006 Emmys was slapped onto the bottom of the 'Films' section, hence my creating a section specifically for those types of appearances. --Pisceandreams 13:47, 10 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Video Games

As these were based on the movies, rather than the TV series, should these be mentioned here? Rojomoke 15:55, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cast and crew

The main cast of the show was listed several times throughout the article, so I created a chart to list all of them together, indicating the seasons they starred in the show. I also condensed the info on guest stars. While it was well written, some of it was not sourced, and it was too long for a section on guest stars. There's more information on the show that could be included here that, sadly, is not. I've yet to add crew info. Anyone please feel free to do so. --Pisceandreams (talk) 03:38, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] UK version?

Recently, the anonymous user User:193.130.82.253 added a section to this page claiming that in 2007, a pilot for a planned UK version of the series was made, called 'Surj's Angels', and supposedly focusing on a bank clerk named Surjya Sandel. I'm from the UK, and I never heard of this; and I can't find any information about it anywhere. I have reverted the addition as a probable hoax. Terraxos (talk) 04:30, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
