Battle of the Network Stars

Wonder Woman Won!
Lynda Carter

With all the chaos in the world, today has gotten me feeling nostalgic for a simpler time...Thus I bring to you a memory from my youth Battle of the Network Stars.

The show ran on ABC from 1976 - 1988, it aired biannually and pitted celebrities from the big three networks against one another in track and field type of games.

Lynda Carter aka Wonder Woman pictured above was on a team with Farrah Fawcett, Penny Marshall & Ron Howard. 

Their team won the inaugural games, and Carter won the swimming relay as well.

Seriously though, did you expect a team with Wonder Woman and one of Charlie's Angels to lose? I thought not!
