In 1984, Donna guest-starred on an episode of the television crime series 'Partners in Crime' starring Lynda Carter and Loni Anderson, called 'Fantasyland'. At the end of the episode, she is seen wearing a purple sweater and khakis, identical to an outfit she wore as Molly Stewart in 'Angel'. 'Angel' was also released in 1984. If you look closely, she is wearing the same pearl earrings and her hair appears to be the same as well. Although 'Angel' was released in January of 1984 and the episode 'Fantasyland' didn't air until November 1984, it's probable that Donna was working on both 'Angel' and 'Partners in Crime' on or around the same day.
