Charlie's Angels
Day: Wednesday February 24 2021
Time: 9 AM Eastern
Channel: GetTV
IIRC this was the "best" of a big time disappointment of a show scene wise! BTW, my system calls this ep #21



Title: Charlie's Angels (1976)
Medium: TV Series
Actress: Betty Jean Samuelson, Jere Rae Mansfield aka Jeri Lea Ray

Description: Episode: "Marathon Angels" (3.19 or 3.21, depending on source)

In the opening minutes, marathon runners Sylvia (Samuelson) and Helga (Danuta Wesley) are accosted by a pair of masked thugs. They only seem to want Sylvia for some reason, so they unceremoniously dump Helga in a cardbox box and make off with Sylvia in their van. At 11-12mins, Sally (Mansfield) is grabbed at gunpoint from her car and forced into the van to join Sylvia. Both are sat on the floor with their hands cuffed in front against the van's wall, and they are gagged with a thick white cloth each (Sally is cuffed and gagged onscreen).

In a series of glaring continuity errors, the gags switch between cleave and OTM several times, but this is not a huge issue considering the quality of close-ups and full-body views of both damsels in the same shot. They never make any sound, but their helpless expressions are a real treat. We see them in a few more sequences at 23-24mins and 29mins. Finally, at 39mins-41mins they are uncuffed (gags still left on), taken out of the van, and led into the basement of an old building. Once there they are ungagged, stood against a staircase and recuffed with their hands in front again; all onscreen. Their rescue occurs offscreen after the Angels apprehend the crooks.
no trekkie
