The Angels Go Out of State


Besides Hawaii, they had gone to Las Vegas, Nevada as well for some cases. What other states did they travel to, either as a whole group or as a single investigator?

Oklahoma was the state they had gone Truckin' in.

Iowa in "Pretty Angels All in a Row"

Arizona in "Angels on Vacation"

Sabrina went to New York in "Angel on High"

Kelly went to South Carolina in "Hellride"

Colorado in "Terror on Skis" and I think Kris flew to Aspen in "Angel at the Alter" as well

Did they say what state the Sunwest Dude Ranch was in in "Angels on Horseback"? I kind of got the impression that it was in Arizona, but I don't know if they ever really said for sure.

The place they went to visit was the most confusing one was when they went to investigate Tiffany's sorority. Were they in Boston? or California? Kris had her own car with her in that episode and not a rental. I can't imagine Kris driving her car cross country. So was the sorority that Tiffany was a member in a branch and located near Los Angeles? or were they investigating in Boston, Mass? All of the staff member knew Tiffany.

I got the impression that the college was in southern California, just because they didn't show the Angels staying in a hotel like they often did in the travel episodes, plus like you said, Kris had her own car, Bosley was there for no apparent reason, and the bad guys were holding the two girls in a beach house that looked like it was somewhere in or near LA.

The one I wonder about is "Of Ghosts and Angels" because that Victorian house and the general landscape don't look like SoCal. I always picture that one taking place upstate, like near San Francisco, and if so then it wasn't interstate travel after all.

Speaking of Kris not driving her car across the country, why did the Angels get picked up in Sabrina's Pinto in "Angels in Chains"? (and that's another state, Louisiana, I forgot about that one). I mean, did Sabrina drive the three of them from LA to Louisiana, especially considering that the client's sister was missing and time was of the essence? That makes no sense.

They were in Arizona for ANGEL'S TRAIL.

The Sheriff's office was in Arizona. Look at the map on the wall in the Sheriff's office and listen to him talking about the bad guys being in Arizona.

But what was odd, if it were in California, why would the the writers make it so Tiffany was just relocated from Boston to LA? Did she live in California while attending college?

I believe that the only times they actually filmed on locations outside of the LA area were: Hawaii ( season 2 and 5), Nevada ( season 3), Colorado ( season 3), and the Caribbean ( season 4). All the other "out of state" episodes were filmed in LA.

reply

I've read this too. For example, the hotel where the Angels stayed and where the beauty pageant took place in "Pretty Angels All in a Row" was supposed to be in Fairbairn, Iowa, butI read that it was actually filmed at a hotel in either Santa Barbara or Santa Monica.

Also, If you look at the landscaping at the big house where the contestants hung out in that same episode and are familiar at all with the typical flora native to the Midwest, you can see that there are several plants around that house that do not grow in a four season climate like that in Iowa.

reply

if you see Palm Trees in the landscape and the Angels are supposed to be in Wyoming for a rodeo, then you would have to guess they are on tv studio lot.

reply

I'm not sure about that because they do have palm trees in states other than California. They used to have them on the beach here in Louisiana where I live.

reply

Sabrina and Kelly went to Nova Scotia to catch Mrs. Carpenter's killer.

Also, they went to Mazatlan in "The Mexican Connection".

And they were likely in either Kentucky or Tennessee in "Moonshinin' Angels".
