A 1970s Aaron Spelling jiggle 'n' shoot cop "masterpiece". Farrah Fawcett, Jaclyn Smith and Kate Jackson, then pretty hot stuff, comprised the three original angels. (After contract disputes, Cheryl Ladd, Shelley Hack and Tanya Roberts completed the roster.)

The premise was that some bloke named "Charlie" took these three policewomen, who were assigned yawn-filled tasks such as desk worker and traffic guard, and assigned them to fight elite crime. He never appeared on-screen, instead using David Doyle's Bosley character to act as a go-between. Part of the show's appeal was that the stars would frequently forget their bras while running down hardened criminals.

There soon will be a motion picture under the same moniker. Likely stars are Ally McBeal's Lucy Liu, Cameron Diaz and Drew Barrymore.
