a gooferama!

Warning: Spoilers
Bizarre. Silly. Goofy. Silly. Did i mention goofy? A gooferama. Firstly, the initial office meeting with the client is, um, the last time that character appears. Then we're off on a whirlwind of, y'know, goofiness. In another office scene, there's a huge, black, curly-haired dog sprawled across Kelly's lap. No explanation is given (i'm guessing it was "bring your dog to work" day, Jaclyn?). Sabrina does a French accent that is sooo, um, silly. There's a fight scene with Kris and another magician's assistant that's just...i gotta go with goofy. And the most fantastic scene is Bosley's performance (with assistant Kris in a jaw-dropping costume) as a comic clairvoyant. Classic. You'll also get a kick out of guest star Rudy Solari (POLICE SQUAD!).

Angel Illusions

A fairly silly episode centered around the world of magic. A magician is suspected of being a fire-starter so he hires the Angels to clear his name. Strangely, after the opening scene or two he's never glimpsed again.

Bosley and Kris go undercover as a mind reading duo, Kelly as the daughter of a famous magician, and Sabrina does a ridiculous bit as a French fashion designer. Her absurd Monty Python-inspired accent is why the French hate us. There's lots of pyro action (Sabrina uses a forklift to bash through a roll up door to escape harm from a fire) and lots of 2nd rate magic acts. Bosley is once again played for laughs, which is a recurring theme in C. A.

This one can be regarded (for the most part) as silly dumb fun.
