Mysterious Charlie
The character of Charlie on Charlie’s Angels was one that was consistently cloaked in mystery. Charlie was the Angels’ boss who would greet them over the intercom every morning with “Good Morning Angels.” The network really wanted Charlie to appear on the show with his Angels, however, he never once showed his face. Even in the episodes in which Charlie appeared on screen, his face was always obscured.
They wanted to use him as a big reveal on the show. Although it never came into fruition, it was discussed until the show was canceled in 1981. John Forsythe was the actor who played the voice of Charlie, but he never even came to the set. Aaron Spelling wanted to maintain the mystery so he was never even credited in the role until after the show.
