“Jiggle TV”

Uhh, how do we put this lightly? Charlie’s Angels was known to many critics as “Jiggle TV” and “T&A TV” (or “Tits & A$$ Television”) because they were under the impression the show had no substance and only depicted the Angels as sensational roller derby girls, beauty pageant contestants, female prisoners, or just bikini-clad. Farrah Fawcett even said once that the show’s success was due to: “When the show was number three, I figured it was our acting. When it got to be number one, I decided it could only be because none of us wears a bra.”
