    Profile
 

Jill MunroeJill Munroe was played by Farrah Fawcett (then Farrah Fawcett-Majors) in the first season of Charlie's Angels (1976-1977). Jill returned with six regular guest appearances in the third and fourth season. Jill is a wild and exuberant beauty. She is also the sports whiz of the group. She excels as an athlete and is an expert in sports trivia. Warm, romantic and a bit kookie, Jill is a skillful gambler for any stakes - up to and including her life. Jill Munroe was by far the most popular of all the Angels in the Townsend Agency. Jill, the only blonde in the original line-up of Angels is the sporty and athletic Angel, a real expert in martial arts and is seen coaching at times a  girl's basketball team, playing tennis, swimming, bowling, skateboarding, and roller-skating on the show. Jill is a real bombshell. A fun, California golden girl, extremely sexy and assertive, beautiful, an out-door type and a sex-kitten 24/7. She is the epicenter of all male attention and she also frequents the model-type covers, once as a playmate centerfold. Jill Munroe lives in a house at the beach. Jill's other hobbies include driving really fast in her sports car. Jill is very outgoing, radiant and cheerful with a blunt peculiar sense of humor.
 

Past: Has one little sister Kris Munroe. After graduating from the Police Academy she jumped at the chance to have more exciting work in the field as undercover detectives. As the athletically gifted one, Jill is versed in all sports and sports-related trivia. She lives in Malibu.


Fashion: Jill may have been the athletic Angel, seen occasionally in blue jeans and sports outfits but she was also extremely beautiful with an excellent, fit and very sexy body. She loved to wear thigh-high cutoff shorts and skimpy T-shirts with no bra. Also she loved to dress high fashion clothes of the 70s. With no bra. Strangely enough, Jill never wore a bikini during her stint in the Agency and is seen in a swimsuit only once in the episode "The Mexican Connection."

Romance: Like all the Angels, Jill romanced many men while on the job. These never lasted beyond a specific episode or ended badly with the man being the villain. One of biggest Jill's affairs was Steve Carmody (played by Stephen Collins - Episode "Angel Come Home") to whom she was engaged.

Other affairs include Jericho (played by Fernando Lamas - Episode "Angel Trap") and Prince Eric Railman (played by Leonard Mann - Episode "The Prince and the Angel").


Car: Jill Munroe drives a white Cobra II with two blue stripes down the middle with license plate number CALIFORNIA 436-YEB. When Jill left the Charlie Townsend Agency, her sister Kris took her place and also inherited her car.

The Cobra II wasn't any faster than other similarly powered Mustang IIs, but it sure looked radical and Farrah Fawcett-Majors' character, Jill Munroe, drove one on the huge TV hit series Charlie's Angels.


Covers and techniques: Jill usually lures men with her breathtaking Californian looks to get information. She is also an expert in kung fu and other martial arts and the most athletic of all the Angels. Actually she is an expert in tennis, basket ball and roller skating, an excellent swimmer and a professional race car driver. Jill also has excellent skills at 5 card poker as we see in "Hellride".

Why did she leave:  Always living on life's edge, Jill left the Townsend Agency after the first year for an even more adrenaline-charged pursuit, to become a  professional racecar driver. She actually managed to come third at Lamanz and won the Grand Prix in Belgium. Her little sister Kris (played by Cheryl Ladd) takes her place for the remaining four seasons. Jill returns six times later on.
