Los ángeles de Charlie

You don't watch a series like this expecting a life-changing experience or Shakespearean wit, but I was at least hoping for some mindlessly entertaining action and crime solving. Unfortunately, this programme couldn't even deliver that. The acting is very flat, the script is nonsensical and the plot makes no sense. The Angels seem to have been picked based on their looks and willingness to wear skimpy clothes rather than any particular charisma or talent. Even if you're building your series around providing eye candy, you still need some comic relief, some witty dialogue, or at least something to concentrate on during yet another motion-sickness inducing shaky-cam sequence.

I would be really surprised if this disaster lasts more than a season or two.

Well It might be unfair to review this show since it only has aired one episode, but i got to say that after watching the first episode I highly doubt that i will continue watching it. Well the Plot is same as the Charlie's angels movies, where three girls with bad pasts get together to fight crime tagged alone with a guy and their secret handler Charlie. First of all there isn't any mystery drama of any sort in this. There will be a problem and they will pretty soon figure out soon without chasing false leads or falling in to danger. The stories reminds me of mutant ninja turtles and knight rider the new series since the girls are always equipped with the best tech stuff all the time. they can access satellite feeds, zoom in to blurred CCTV camera feeds, crack safes in a few seconds which makes it boring and silly to watch. In some instances you would see the girls kicking asses of guys twice or thrice their size which also makes it highly unrealistic. I'm pretty sure they could have done for better may be added a few steamy scenes since that's what female spice or operatives do best. Unless they carry out major changes in the plots I highly doubt this will last much longer.

I'm aware that the new Charlie's Angels TV series has received a lot of negative reviews and I've met several people who don't like it. But I like the new Charlie's Angels TV series, in fact I think it is action packed and suspenseful. I like the fact the Bosley is a young man instead of a middle-aged man like he was in the original TV series.

Rachel Taylor, Minka Kelly and Annie Ilonzeh are all very good an the Angels. I also like the fact that all three of these women have a criminal past and that they have been given a chance at redemption by working for Charlie as private detectives.

Each episode I've watched has been quite suspenseful and action packed. I especially liked the episode "Angels in Chains" which is based on an iconic episode of the same name from the first season of the original series.

For those of you who haven't watched the original Charlie's Angels TV series I'll explain. In the original series episode of "Angels in Chains" the Angels get themselves into a women's prison in the country to investigate the death of an inmate. There they discover that the nearby small town sheriff along with the prison warden are having young women arrested and imprisoned on trumped-up violations. The women are enslaved until they become prostitutes in exchange for early release.

In the new Charlie's Angels episode "Angels in Chains" the Angels go to Cuba to investigate the disappearance of a young female American tourist. So the Angels pose as pose as unsuspecting American tourists. Upon their arrival at the Cuban Hotel the Angels are framed of drug possession and thrown into a women's prison, where their key victim, Tess, is also incarcerated. The Angels learn that a corrupt American capitalist is working with the prison warden and is having young female American tourists imprisoned and then used as prostitutes as a part of his business deals. Bosley joins forces with his ex-girlfriend, CIA operative Samantha Masters, to free the Angels and the other wrongfully imprisoned women. So I think the "Angels in Chains" episode is a great homage to the original series episode.

So once again I like the new Charlie's Angels TV series and I will continue to watch every episode of it and recommend this show to people.

I thought people were exaggerating, but no almost as bad as The New 2 and a Half Twits, pardon me, Men. Has any remake been any good this year?

Only decent thing about the pilot was the soundtrack. Shame on you ABC canceling Ugly Betty and spending loads of money in this piece of garbage.

Anywhoo. How will the actresses get another headline role after this? Who allowed this to go beyond the pilot? Why wasting so much money when the screentests were unpopular?

I feel sorry for the cast because the buzz was tremendous, even if you have no idea who the girls were, in Europe no one knows who the girls are, hence that wasn't part of the attraction, we were expecting not only a good script, but laughs, action the smashing pow that a remake this show deserved.

The first episode was like a female, badly written, acted, directed Austin Powers. No offense meant to Austin Powers.A wast of money and time.

I'm a middle-aged man COMPLETELY in love and obsessed with Minka Kelly, but this show was so bad I almost turned it off before her character had even been introduced. The plot was complete nonsense to the point of frustration. Dialog was inane. Back-stories made no sense, and the acting was horrific (except for Minka, who wasn't fantastic but was a heck of a lot better than the other cast members).

I obviously came into it ready to love it. Despite my infatuation, even I am not sure I could stomach another episode. I'll guarantee this isn't on TV anymore by Halloween at the latest. Minka - find something better to do! You deserve better writing! At least I have all the seasons of Friday Night Lights on DVD to comfort me, or maybe I'll keep watching Charlie's Angels (during its short life) with the TV on mute.
