1. She was a beauty, that's for sure...
...and the thing is you never heard mean things about her...sure there was that loopy Letterman interview, but nobody ever complained about her on the set, she never was mean or vindictive...just a sweet lady....very, very sad.

That poster was EVERYWHERE when I was a teenager.

11. Not me.
IMHO Jaclyn Smith was by far the most beautiful of Charlie's Angels. She still is, even at her age and considering the recent movie.

Cheryl Ladd wasn't a bad second.

16. This poster outsold ALL Marilyn Monore AND Betty Grable posters COMBINED
I think we found the definition of ubiquitous.

17. She was voted one of the top ten most beautiful coeds at University of Texas
But I don't remember what year that was.

Beautiful smile, stunning figure. Rest in peace.

18. The woman had spunk and intelligence-- plus beauty
I saw the special they had (on NBC?, TNT?) recently and found much to admire.

Even though I knew she probably would not beat the monster, I admired her for her fight AND for her talent, which was not often shown outside of "The Burning Bed" show.

Much more intelligent than tabloid articles and her personal history (high school drop out at 11th grade) would suggest and much more loving to her damaged son and Ryan, than they perhaps deserved.

I am saddened by her defeat by the monster and hope that Redmond and Ryan can find clarity and strength to mend their addictive ways.

She was a trooper and will be missed.

22. Did anyone else collect the Charlie's Angels gum cards?
Made by Topps and marketed in four or five series each of 66 cards w/11 stickers?

What more could a kid want than the opportunity to gawk at hot babes while giving himself cavities?:P
