Jill Munroe was played by Farrah Fawcett (then Farrah Fawcett-Majors) in the first season of "Charlie's Angels" (1976-1977).

Jill is the sporty and athletic angel, and is seen coaching a kids' basketball team, playing tennis, swimming, bowling, skateboarding, and rollerskating on the show. Not just a tomboy, she also frequents the model-type covers, once as a playmate centerfold. She drives a white Cobra II with blue racing stripes and lives in a house at the beach.

Shown in the series' opening credits at a police station desk job, the premise of the series was that the Angels jumped at the chance to have more exciting work in the field as undercover detectives. After the first year, she leaves the Townsend agency for an even more adrenaline-charged pursuit, to be a racecar driver. Her little sister Kris (played by Cheryl Ladd) takes her place for the remaining four seasons. Jill returns six times later on:
* Angel Come Home (season 3)
* Mother Angel (season 3)
* Angels in a Box (season 3)
* Fallen Angel (season 4)
* The Prince and the Angel (season 4)
* An Angel's Trail (season 4)
