Kate Jackson - and I am pleasantly surprised that this is not a minority vote. ---

When it’s all said and done, Mike Trout will win in a landslide. Like most 11-year-old boys in 1976, I thought Farrah was the apotheosis of womankind. And really, America [pretty much thought so](http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/feb/2/farrah-fawcetts-red-swimsuit-going-smithsonian/) as well. ---

Kate Jackson still looks pretty good. She’s had some work done but still very attractive. Do a Google image search. I’d link but I’m on my tablet and it takes forever. ---

Cheryl Ladd & Jacklyn Smith were the hottest; Ladd had a tiny advantage there, but no much. I never saw the big deal about Farrah Fawcett. ---

> [@gytalf2000](#): > > I thought that Farrah was very attractive, but I never understood the ridiculous amount of fanaticism about her. I phrased it poorly. She was beautiful, but not as beautiful as Ladd or Smith and not significantly more beautiful than the rest. That ridiculous hair didn’t help. ---

Jim Rockford’s friend. Out of the original Charlie’s Angels (of which I have watched about two episodes ever), Kate Jackson, who was a little less plastic than the others. I quite liked her in _The Scarecrow and Mrs King_ too. ---

Farrah was really cute when she appeared on _ **The Dating Game** _ at the age of 19 or so. I liked her not so much after they glammed her up for _ **CA** _.

Jackson (I think she should have been Anna Sheridan on Babylon 5 instead of Melissa Gilbert), though Smith was the hottest. ---

While I’m a tad too young to have enjoyed the original Angels, I did grow up with The Scarecrow and Mrs. King and you will pry my Kate Jackson from my cold dead fingers. ---

> [@Tom\_Tildrum](#): > > [Metatron](http://www.demonologia.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/metatron-cuerpo-de-luz.jpg). Specifically, Alan Rickman as the Metatron in _[Dogma](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120655/fullcredits)_. Either him, Christopher Walken as Gabriel in _[The Prophecy](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114194/reference)_. I prefer my angels dark, or at the least really snarky. Gabriel: \*I’m an angel. I kill firstborns while their mamas watch. I turn cities into salt. I even, when I feel like it, rip the souls from little girls, and from now till kingdom come, the only thing you can count on in your existence is never understanding why. \* [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/who-was-your-favorite-angel/699096.md?page=2)
