They're back, they're beautiful, and they mean business--but in a sweet way. Charlie's Angels: The Complete Third Season finds Kris Munroe (Cheryl Ladd), sister of departed Angel Jill Munroe (Farrah Fawcett), well ensconced in the Charles Townsend Investigation agency. Jill, however, isn't entirely absent from the scene: Fawcett turns up in at least three episodes, not quite ready to shake her old job despite the lure of car racing and a handsome beau (Stephen Collins). But enough about her: the current incarnation of Charlie's team kicks off the season with a two-part mystery set in Las Vegas. Dean Martin plays a maverick casino owner who believes he's being "gaslighted," i.e., made the target of psychological harassment by an unknown enemy. Trouble is, some of his employees and friends are getting hurt and even killed by this same assailant. The girls, including brainy Sabrina Duncan (Kate Jackson) and streetwise Kelly Garrett (Jaclyn Smith), plus mirthful supervisor Bosley (David Doyle), go undercover to root out a plot to ruin Martin's character. (Sure, Dino romances one of them: Sabrina.) The rest of the season follows the usual Charlie's Angels formula of relying on the cast's appealing personalities and substantive, anti-bimbo characters, while also getting them (well, not Jackson so much) in various states of undress as quickly as possible. An accent on stories requiring the wearing of leotards and showgirl costumes certainly helps the cause, but there are plenty of non-exploitational episodes as well. Among the best programs is "Angel Come Home," in which Jill arrives at Charlie's by surprise after receiving a phony emergency cable in Europe from someone claiming to be Kris. Eager to investigate, Jill soon hooks up with an old friend (Horst Buchholz) developing a new car engine targeted by enemies. "Angels in Springtime" capitalizes on a creepy suggestion of lesbian incarcerators running an expensive spa for women. "Haunted Angels" is a spooky tale of a young man's demanding spirit being channeled, from beyond the grave, through a terrified woman. It could be real or it could be a scam; only the Angels can find out. "Counterfeit Angels" finds a trio of bank robbers claiming to be Kris, Kelly, and Sabrina; the girls fight for their innocence. Finally, a great episode from its era (1979), "Disco Angels," gets the ladies exactly where they belong: on a dance floor. --Tom Keogh

 Hit & Miss - Still 5 Stars! December 31, 2008
Matt P. Swintek
If you are a fan of Charlie's Angels, this set is a must so just place it in your cart right now and proceed to checkout. I'm going to try to keep this review to the point and do my best to give you my honest opinion about what I noticed during the time I was watching Season three.
For me, Season three really had its ups and downs. When an episode was good, it was typically very good. When one was bad, I often wondered why they even took the time to shoot it. Long time Angel writer Edward J. Lasko wrote ten of the Season three episodes and it was quite obvious that he was getting a bit burned out. He did an outstanding job with "Angels in Vegas," and "Angel On My Mind," (a personal favorite) but how he could have followed up with scripts like "Angels On Vacation," and "Marathon Angels" is beyond me.
There were other writers in Season three, however, they were hit and miss also. Big Hits: "Counterfeit Angels," "Angels In Springtime," and
"Winning Is For Losers," Big Misses: "Pom-Pom Angels," "Haunted Angels" and "Angels Ahoy." ("Ahoy" did contain a rather unexpected twist at the end.)
Bottom Line: If you are a Charlie's Angels fan you are not going to mind watching the episodes that are somewhat lacking. As for the better ones, you will absolutely love them. It's almost as if our "three little girls" knew when they had winning scripts and really worked hard to do them justice.
P.S. Good-bye Kate! We love you.
Excellent collection December 15, 2008
Dewey M. Jacks (Bluffton,In. USA)
This collection is downright awesome. The original Angels at their best,...including that sweet loveable Kelly Garrett. Highly recommend this for any true Angel fan. Cheryl is just as awesome,and Kate is
great,too. Still have yet to finish watching this collection,but what I have seen so far it is great,...a MUST for all Angel fans. These collections I have will be watched over and over. I have Season Two,but have yet to start watching it(want to finish Season One first).
Enjoy looking back September 7, 2008
Winks Ticklewhip (Tx USA)
I enjoy looking back at the clothing and hairstyles and thinking what in the world - did we really wear stuff like that or did we really look good in the Farah hairdo.
 Okay August 26, 2008
Mark Crafton (Sacramento, CA USA)
The third season of Charlie's Angels picks up where the second one left off, only with better writing. Cheryl Ladd hits a better stride and the guest spots by Farrah are definitely high points of the season.
MPI Home Video's Angels June 17, 2008
D. DiRienzo (Bayonne, NJ USA)
Sony Pictures, selling Charlie's Angels to MPI Home Video would be a perfect idea for the fans, who have waited 6 years to collect all 5 Seasons of the series on DVD. Please do not say no to my suggestion. MPI Home Video will be willing to re-release the first 3 seasons, and release the 2 remaining seasons with no problems. Please sell Charlie's Angels to MPI Home Video!
