Administrator Toups Posted October 20, 2009 Author Administrator Share Posted October 20, 2009 “CHARLIE’S ANGELS” Everyone deserves a second chance -- even a thief, a street racer and a cop who got in a little too deep. After all, the three women who solve cases for their elusive boss, Charlie Townsend, are no saints. They’re angels... Charlie’s Angels. Set in Miami, this fun, glamorous, action-packed take on the 1970s smash hit series introduces us to three new angels, all fearless detectives, head-turning beauties and close friends. There’s Abby (Rachael Taylor), a Park Avenue princess who became a world-class thief. Then there’s Kate (Annie Ilonzeh), a Miami cop who fell from grace, losing both her career and her fiancé. Finally there’s Gloria, a disgraced army lieutenant who has a way with explosives. When one of the angels’ missions ends in Gloria’s tragic death, Charlie persuades them to partner with Gloria’s childhood friend, Eve (Minka Kelly), a street racer with a mysterious past. They may not know each other yet, but one thing’s for sure -- Abby, Kate and Eve will always have each others’ backs. “Charlie’s Angels” stars Annie Ilonzeh (“General Hospital”) as Kate Prince, Minka Kelly (“Parenthood,” “Friday Night Lights”) as Eve, Rachael Taylor (“Grey’s Anatomy”) as Abby Sampson and Ramon Rodriguez (“The Wire,” “Daybreak”) as Bosley. Written and executive-produced by Alfred Gough & Miles Millar (“Smallville”), “Charlie’s Angels” is also executive-produced by Drew Barrymore (“Charlie’s Angels” movies), Leonard Goldberg (the original “Charlie’s Angels”) and Nancy Juvonen (“Charlie’s Angels” movies). It’s directed and executive-produced by Marcos Siega (“Vampire Diaries,” “Dexter”). “Charlie’s Angels” is produced by Millar/Gough Ink, Flower Films and Panda Productions in association with Sony Pictures Television.

Members DRW50 Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 Why? The last attempt to remake a popular 70s female-oriented show, Bionic Woman, was a dreary flop, probably because the man behind it hadn't even seen the original (instead we were supposed to swoon because he was a BSG producer). Now they're going to do another remake, by the SCC people, even though that show, however acclaimed it may have been over time, was not a success.

Members Ann_SS Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 The first Charlie Angels' movie was fun. We'll have to see how a series would work. They would have to update a lot like the movie did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted November 13, 2009 Members Share Posted November 13, 2009 I'm dreadfully tired of remakes. And I care not to use that term "reboot." It's just a pretentious way for them to dance around "remake." Just tell the truth. You can't come up with anything new or different, and if you do, the network is too !@#$%^&*] to try it out, so you want to hijack something that was the work of someone else hoping that people will tune in. Losers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members lovely_m Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 Here's the casting for the show http://insidetv.ew.com/2011/01/28/charlies-angels-minka-kelly-rachael-taylor-officially-cast/ I'm disappointed that they made the Latina angel into a white girl instead.

Members quartermainefan Posted January 31, 2011 Members Share Posted January 31, 2011 Obviously these girls are pretty, but where are the Farrah Fawcett/Jacklyn Smith caliber beauties these days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted February 1, 2011 Members Share Posted February 1, 2011 Minka Kelly!! I miss early FNL I want someone to really go out of the box and flip the genders around: female Charlie, female Bosley, guy Angels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 1, 2011 Members Share Posted February 1, 2011 Exactly...I don't think I'll be watching this version. I'll just pop one of my dvds from the original version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Vixen Posted February 1, 2011 Members Share Posted February 1, 2011 I will give the show a try. I don't expect it to live up to the original, but we'll see. I like the cast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 1, 2011 Members Share Posted February 1, 2011 They all look kind of hard. I thought the appeal of Charlie's Angels was that fresh type of beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
