DVD Reviews of Charlie's Angels - The Complete First Season

DVD Review: I love those Angels
Summary: 5 Stars

I miss Farrah, I love those (original) Angels...and I never missed a show as a kid. And guess what? I am now a private investigator. Woo hoo!

DVD Review: CHEAPEST PACKAGING EVER!!!
Summary: 4 Stars

The show is great, but it's the worst packaging I've ever seen for a big-time show. No booklet or inserts in the individual plastic cases (4 of which are varying degrees of blue and the 5th simply clear...what? Did they run out of blue cases? Ridiculous!) One reviewer said his came with a logo sticker to hold the 5 cases together. Mine didn't even have that. But with that being said, it is great fun to see the three angels again.

DVD Review: It brings back more than memories
Summary: 5 Stars

When Charlie's Angels entered my life, I was a senior in high school. Watching the angels each week gave me the idea that a girl COULD be beautiful, wear great clothes, have fabulous hair and still kick someone's butt and have an awesome career in something like the police field. I never went that route, but it opened up a whole generation of girls eyes into believing in themselves for whatever they chose to do. Each week I tuned in to see what exciting adventure the gals would find themselves in, and although there are episodes that have some corny possibilities in them, this show was meant to entertain. It still does, 30 years later. I am sad that Farrah Fawcett was only in season 1, as I think she added a lot to the show with her character, and of course - us girls were just wanting THAT HAIR. Have some fun, go back in time 30+ years, and watch the first season of Charlie's Angels, which in my opinion, is the best season.

DVD Review: Charlie's Angels
Summary: 5 Stars

Very Pleased with it brings back good memories of watching this in the 80's.. will always MISS Farrah Fawcett!!!

DVD Review: The packaging doesn't really deserve even 3 stars
Summary: 3 Stars

I gave this 3 stars simply because of the show itself. The packaging is pathetically cheap. Each set of discs is in a plastic holder that doesn't even have any labeling, so there's nothing that shows what the episodes are about. But they didn't forget to include a brochure of all their other DVD's. I didn't bother to read it, since I figured any other DVD's they were selling would probably also be packaged cheap. Whoever planned the packaging really dropped the ball.

Description of Charlie's Angels - The Complete First Season

This five-disc compilation features the entire First Season with the original Angels Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith and all their adventures from one of the most classic shows in television history.

Once upon a time, Jill, Sabrina and Kelly were police officers whose skills were being wasted in menial duties such as answering phones and filing. A mysterious millionaire named Charles Townsend took them away from all that by opening his own private investigation agency and hiring these gorgeous ladies as his operatives with John Bosley acting as their assistant and liaison.


America's guiltiest pleasure of 1976--the inaugural season of Charlie's Angels--has returned in all its jiggly, jolly glory in this tidy boxed set. It's hard to describe just how captivated the nation's media and viewing public were with cheesemeister Aaron Spelling's ABC-TV hit, but for awhile Charlie's Angels was wildly popular appointment television at its most self-consciously banal. The first season's three (and best-remembered) belles--lioness Farrah Fawcett (then Farrah Fawcett-Majors), pin-up babe Jaclyn Smith, and Thinking Man's beauty Kate Jackson--were something like primetime Spice Girls, gracing countless magazine covers and bestselling posters. The idea (even if a fan of the show didn't happen to be a straight male) was that one was compelled to choose a favorite angel as a kind of ink-blot window onto one's subconscious life.

While the 2000 Angels feature film (starring Cameron Diaz, etc.) kept faith with the original show's self-mockingly sloppy storytelling, there's nothing like seeing the old episodes for a lesson in narrative hubris. Basically, the three leading characters were bored policewomen wooed away to a private firm owned and operated by the unseen sybarite, Charlie (voiced--over speakerphone--by an uncredited John Forsythe). After a long set-up each week, the girls' investigations typically saw them going undercover: as fashion models--no great stretch--in "Night of the Strangler"; nurses in "Terror on Ward One"; roller-derby stars in "Angels on Wheels"; and vulnerable convicts (of course) in "Angels In Chains." The exploitation factor is not as bad as it might have been. The cast was so glamorous, their chemistry so perfect, Charlie's Angels never became a mere meat market. Despite such nods to modernity as Fawcett's no-bra look, the episodes were old-fashioned in their heroine-in-peril appeal, yet there was a difference: The Angels looked out for themselves and each other. --Tom Keogh
