He is aided in his investigative efforts by two friends: his ditzy blonde secretary, Marsha Finch (<a href="/wiki/Elaine_Joyce" title="Elaine Joyce">Elaine Joyce</a>), who also runs a call-girl business on the side, and attorney Michael Brimm (Philip Sterling). Brimm is called upon frequently to defend Axminster from charges (mostly trumped-up) leveled against him by Lieutenant Murray Quint (<a href="/wiki/Clifton_James" title="Clifton James">Clifton James</a>), a fat, cigar-chomping, and thoroughly crooked member of the <a href="/wiki/Los_Angeles_Police_Department" title="Los Angeles Police Department">Los Angeles Police Department</a>. </p><p>Axminster drives a 1934 ragtop <a href="/wiki/Studebaker" title="Studebaker">Studebaker</a> and keeps his office in downtown L.A.’s historic <a href="/wiki/Bradbury_Building" title="Bradbury Building">Bradbury Building</a>, phone number OXford-8704.

Individual installments of this show were based on real-life events. The three-part pilot episode, “The November Plan,” was based on a notorious 1933 American conspiracy known as the <a href="/wiki/Business_Plot" title="Business Plot">Business Plot</a>, which involved wealthy businessmen trying to bring down <a href="/wiki/United_States_President" class="mw-redirect" title="United States President">United States President</a> <a href="/wiki/Franklin_D._Roosevelt" title="Franklin D.

An "associate of his" was quoted in <i>TV Guide</i> as saying that "Wayne actually tore up <i>Angels</i> scripts while they were shooting on the set and rewrote them himself. He hated the material they gave him."<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> That article continued: </p> <dl><dd>Rogers says, "<i>Angels</i> is a classic example of convoluted, disconnected, bad storytelling." The show had share-of-audience figures of 50%, 31% and 29% for the first three episodes—certainly a respectable record for a mid-season replacement. "These were fine episodes, written by Steve Cannell," says Rogers. "After that, the others couldn't match Cannell's pace and the bottom fell out."</dd></dl> <dl><dd>He mostly blames lack of story preparation time for the demise of <i>Angels</i>. "Often we'd have only an outline in hand, with the shooting deadline almost upon us. Sometimes we'd have a script only at the very last minute. I never heard of a show where you shot through the night and ran out of darkness, but that's what happened to us.</dd></dl> <dl><dd>"The other big factor was that we'd see someone lost or murdered on page 1 of the script and Jake Axminster would be hired to handle the matter. Then we'd have 49 pages of red herrings. On page 50 we'd come back to the initial thesis. We were seeing non sequiturs all over the place. You can't get away with that."</dd></dl> <p>Wayne Rogers was paid $25,000 a week for his starring role in <i>City of Angels</i>,<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span
