    Thank you for this video. Lynda was (and still is!) truly outstanding in all ways. She can sing, she can dance, she can act, and---lest we forget---she is the most beautiful woman Hollywood ever found.

      @@johnnyrocker7495 Her full name is Lynda Jean Cordova Carter if that makes you feel better. Her mom was Mexican/Spanish and her dad Irish/English. His surname was Carter. Her first name is spelled differently from the more typical Linda, but in spanish "linda" means beautiful so maybe that's why it was chosen. I was a kid during her Wonder Woman heyday and I have similar mixed heritage, so she was a notable celeb for me. Not just for her beauty and talent but also because that dual background wasn't as visible or celebrated in entertainment in the 1970s/1980s

      Just speaking of TV variety shows, programming and interests have changed but I don't think it's due to a lack of talent. Many of today's biggest entertainer are triple threats. We see them act, sing and dance in movies and onstage.
      Personally I always liked variety show specials. I remember as a kid watching this one with Lynda Carter and one with Cheryl Ladd. I was blown away that Wonder Woman and one of Charlie's Angels had so many other talents!

      There are many Hollywood stars and famous people with a Spanish heritage: Anthony Quinn, Linda Ronstad, Lynda Carter, Raquel Welch, Martin Sheen, his two sons, Fernando and Lorenzo Lamas, Desi Arnaz, their children (with Lucy Ball), John Wayne's wife, Jennifer Lopez, Rita Moreno, Javier Bardem, Antonio Banderas, Eva Mendes, Selena Gomez, Eva Longoria, Shakira, and many others, to name just a few.
