"Can Shelley 'Hack' It As Charlie's Newest Angel?" was the question the magazine Screen Stories posed in September of 1979. Kate Jackson had quit the show and Shelley was coming in to fill in her empty slot. Doing the show meant "many, long hard hours" according to Kate, but Shelley was up for the challenge. "I enjoy hard work," she said, "I get very involved in whatever I do, and ever since I can remember, I wanted to do things best."
