Shelley appeared alongside comedy legends Dick Van Dyke and Sid Caesar in the 1983 TV movie Found Money. Originally titled Max and Sam (Van Dyke's and Caesar's characters) the movie was re-titled My Secret Angel then finally Found Money. It was about two bank employees who decided to play a Robin-Hood act by rewarding the kindness of people. Shelley played a reporter (Max's love interest) named Leslie Phillips. She found both actors "very generous to work with" but had to keep up with the duo's pace. "You had to work so fast, because everything was left loose," she told TV Guide in 1983. "I felt like I kind of jumped on a moving train," she added. Shelley would again work with Dick Van Dyke in 1997 - as a guest star in his TV series Diagnosis Murder.
