...Aside from this handful of gems, "Charlie's Angels" fell flat as trash TV. The reason? Successful exploitative entertainment is created by people who are either entirely honest about what they're doing (in the unrepentantly sleazy manner of professional wrestling) or blissfully unaware of how bizarre their creation actually is (the patron saint of this sort of misguided brilliance being the legendary Edward D.

Such unremitting cuteness might just as well have been the result of Snuggles the detergent teddy bear's experimentation with a paint-by-numbers kit while on vacation in Tuscany. To Lake's credit, several of her horizontal compositions are unusually strong in their geometric structure...
