	List of episodes

This is a list of episodes for the fifth and final season of the TV series Charlie's Angels. Originally broadcast from November 30, 1980 to June 24, 1981 for a total of 17 episodes, the season starred Jaclyn Smith, Cheryl Ladd, David Doyle, and introduced Tanya Roberts as streetwise former model Julie Rogers, the only "angel" not to graduate from the Police Academy.

Since the show's third season, ratings were in decline. Producers believed that replacing Shelley Hack with a new "Angel" would improve viewing figures, but with this season's timeslot being continually changed during its run, ratings continued to fall. As a result of the scheduling, the show dropped to a lowly #59 in the Nielsen chart, leading ABC to cancel the series after the season concluded.
