I am still remembering the 1970’s as yesterday.....
Charlie’s Angels was 40 years ago. 40!
I watch MEtv and other channels that show the 60’, 70’s tv shows so it seems I never have left. I am in the Twilight Zone.
Of course she took over from Farrah Fawcett on Charlie’s Angels.
One of the frustrations the producers had with Fawcett is that she refused to wear a bikini on the show (despite the fact she started doing nude stuff years later). So when Ladd took over they apparently never got off her back about “put on a bikini.....we want you in a bikini....”
Her response to that was to show up on-set in a series of teenier and teenier bikinis, until the producers realized that Network Standards and Practices would never go for this and they had to yell “Stop, already!”
A very creative approach to the problem, I must say.
