A Blessing or a Curse?

Is being a Charlie's Angel a blessing or a curse? That's what this article (from the Feb 17-23, 1980 issue of TV Times) is about. Has the show wreaked havoc on the Angels' personal lives?

The article tells us about the highs and the lows of becoming a Charlie's Angel. It tells us how Kate, Farrah, Jaclyn, Cheryl and Shelley try to balance their fame with their personal lives.

Since the article came out in 1980 (during the show's 4th season,) only five angels were included. But it's interesting that many thought Jaclyn Smith was going to quit the show and wouldn't appear on the 5th season. It's also interesting that many speculated that Priscilla Presley would take Jackie's place (Apparently, Pris was the leading contender in case Jackie did leave.)
