We're not done with the 'Charlie's Angels' girls just yet! All of the girls who starred in the show were incredibly good looking and gifted, and being gifted would take you a long way in Hollywood during an era when being good looking was enough to open the door. Jaclyn Smith was the most loyal of all the Angels; she remained with the show from its first episode in 1976 all the way through to the last one in 1981.
Whether through loyalty to the show or other reasons, Smith never seemed to have the same burning desire to escape the show and move on to other things as her co-stars. She did make a couple of TV movie appearances during the decade, but fit them around her 'Angels' filming commitments. The show was her first steady and reliable acting work, so it's possible she felt a sense of obligation to stay with it.
