Yesterday sawing the passing of John Forsythe, at the age of 92. He had a long career and according to most news sources was best known as Blake Carrington from Dynasty.
Not for me though, to me, He was and always will be ‘Charlie’.
Even though I was about 6 or 7 at the most, I was obsessed. I had to be in bed at 8. Full Stop. There was one night each week, a Tuesday, when I could stay up til 9. I waited for the words and then nothing could move me for an hour.
“Once upon a time, three little girls went to the police academy, two in Los Angeles and the other in San Francisco. They were each assigned very hazardous duties. But I took them away from all that, and now they work for me. My name is Charlie.”
I watched every episode of Charlie’s Angels but I did prefer them once Cheryl Ladd joined the fold as Jill Munroe’s (Farrah Fawcett-Majors) little sister Kris.
