It’s a tossup between [Claude Raines](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Here_Comes_Mr._Jordan) and [Roma Downey](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touched_by_an_Angel). Oh, _Charlie’s_ Angels. I’ve seen maybe three episodes of that show ever, so I have no opinion.

I’ve seen no episodes of that show. The answer is still Smith.

I came in here to vote for the evil Angel, the one who lost his soul to Buffy’s vagina.

Sad, broody Angel was boring.

As far as Charlie’s Angels, I have no opinion.

I’m with **Ulfrieda** , although Michael is kind of studly, too. Gabriel’s a glorified messenger boy and Raphael’s apocryphal…

Nope, not interested in the remakes or movie versions.

Barely (heh) watched it, but went with Farrah Fawcett. Because, [Farrah Fawcett](https://www.google.com/search?q=farrah+fawcett&client=firefox-a&hs=EI&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=sb&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=0zUfVMKAKYeQyAS_oYGYAg&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAQ), and it was all about looks, not smarts.

I watched _one_ episode of that series (the season premiere where Art Metrano as The Bad Guy told Kate Jackson she had a cute ass), and yeah, I’d have to go with Kate regardless of anything else.

I remember when she played the young wife of a cop in a run-of-the-mill series called _ **The Rookies** _ (1970-ish), and she was the only thing I found interesting there, too.

While I think Tanya Roberts was the hottest angel, she was also easily the worst actress of the bunch. Smith.
