Similarities between Charlie’s Angels in Magnum PI

#1 Post by Laohu »

Charlie’s Angels is going to get the reboot again and it got me thinking about some of the similarities between the two show .
They both have bosses that we the viewer does not see Robin / Charlie .
Then we have the older caretaker character Higgins / Bossley kind of takes care of home base has a different relationship with the boss.
Magnum , TC, Rick =the Angels friends who would do anything for each other share a same experience that helps hold the group together.
Then there is the Magnum episode with the circus where Higgins ends up dressed like a clown where the story seems like a bad rip off of a Angels episode .

Anyone have any more similarities or am reaching here ?

That one is going to be hard to pull off in this #, PC world we are now in........I actually had a Mustang Cobra II like Farrah Fawcett had in the series but mine was black and gold....

The Cobra 2’s were a nice design they just looked like they could be up a move . Some of the idea’s I have read for the new Charlies Angels seems a little different then the original but I agree it will be a hard pull off the way things are viewed now .

I'm continuously surprised by the lack of imagination by "creative" people out there.
