Charlie's Angels: Let Our Angel Live (1981)
Season 5, Episode 16
5/10
A rather weak way to finish the long-running series
15 November 2013
Warning: Spoilers
"Let Our Angel Live" is not really the ideal way to celebrate five years of "Charlie's Angels". The main story, about Kelly getting shot and being hospitalized with a 50%-50% chance to make it is both depressing and predictable, and neither Tanya Roberts nor David Doyle are quite up to the challenge of carrying heavily dramatic scenes. The clips of previous episodes running throughout (yes, this is largely a clip show) hardly show any trademark Angel moments from the long history of the series. To be fair, though, they do include what I consider to be possibly the finest acting moment of Jaclyn Smith in the entire series: her restaurant scene with Simon Oakland in "Angel's Child". I also agree with a previous comment that they should have gotten, if not all, then at least one of the actresses who played the other Angels to make a special appearance in this series finale. ** out of 4.
