her first Charlie's Angels episode
Shelley's debut on Charlie's Angels was via the episode "Love Boat Angels". It was a crossover episode with another hit series The Love Boat. Bert Convy, Bo Hopkins and Dick Sargent were brought in as special guests and it was partly filmed in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands. "When I got off the plane, there were maybe eight million paparazzi. I looked around for Sophia Loren. It was for me. I couldn't believe it," Shelley said, astonished with the worldwide popularity of the show. It topped the Nielsen ratings when it was first aired in September 12, 1979 - making everyone conclude that Angels was in for another great and successful season. The entire cast of The Love Boat appeared in the episode - which made it one of most memorable of the entire series.
