Overview
- Kate Jackson, Jaclyn Smith and Cheryl Ladd appeared together Monday at PaleyFest LA in Hollywood, their first joint stage appearance in more than three decades.
- Ladd disclosed she had an aggressive breast cancer and described a long, hard treatment that left her bald, urging women not to ignore new breast lumps.
- Smith and Jackson, who each faced breast cancer in earlier years, reinforced the message as Smith said she sent Ladd her wigs and Jackson stressed the value of mammograms.
- The ABC series ran five seasons from 1976 to 1981 and became a global hit that broadened how action TV depicted women.
- The franchise remains active, with The Hollywood Reporter saying in February that a new film is in development with Drew Barrymore’s company involved and Pete Chiarelli attached to write.
