* EatTheBomb: In one episode, the ColdOpen has the girls captured by a villain gloating about his tiny, but powerful bomb. Cassie then kicks it out of his hand, catches it in her mouth, and swallows it. Since the bomb is heat-activated, the villain is forced to set them free before the bomb warms to Cassie's body temperature and explodes in the middle of his base. The girls run to freedom and the opening credits start to run... only to be [[CreditsGag shoved off the screen by Cassie]] complaining that she has just ''swallowed a live bomb and will not survive through the credits''. Once she coughs up the bomb (and kicks it [[HoistByHisOwnPetard back down into the villain's base where it explodes]]), she allows the credits to resume where they left off.

The second season, involving producers from [[{{Series/Baywatch}} Tower 12 Productions]], was essentially a [[{{Retool}} series reboot]] -- in the first episode the girls learned that Jack (the equivalent of Bosley in the inevitable ''Series/CharliesAngels'' comparison) had been reassigned, headquarters had been completely remodeled, and their residence had been moved. Basically, the only things remaining unchanged were the general premise and the three lead actresses. The tone of the series changed to a straightforward action/adventure series, with much less of the trademark humor that was the first season's greatest asset. It seems that many fans agreed, as the show didn't survive past the second season.
