As the saying goes. “If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em.” Which is why — rather than bemoan the news that ABC is close to green-lighting CHARLIE’S ANGELS, another re-imagination of an iconic 70’s franchise, we thought we’d have a little fun by throwing in our two cents. After-all, if there’s one thing Hollywood loves more than an already established franchise: It’s securing big name stars to help promote the show.
