Television history is marked by a handful of performances that changed what the medium could do, and Lynda Carter’s Wonder Woman is among them. Her 1970s series proved a female-led action show could anchor a network schedule and a generation’s imagination. Carter’s appearance at the Angel Ball in 2026, aged 75 and still instantly recognised, illustrated the durability of that place in television history — as did her cheerfully simple skincare revelation, greeted like news from an old friend.
