Out of all of the cast members of Charlie’s Angels Tanya Roberts is the actress who loved to go out and push boundaries. Whether she didn’t like to sit still or just enjoyed being on set, Roberts was an actress who you could always count on to give a unique performance.

Roberts also happened to be a total babe. Something that she says made for a lot of interesting experiences. While speaking with Fangoria after the release of The Beastmaster she noted that her brief nude scene caused quite a stir with the crew:

I was so embarrassed. The crew was supposed to take a hike while we shot it, but I know there were 50 guys hiding in the bushes. You know what crews are like. ‘Let’s check out Tanya.’

Heather Thomas, 1983

Yowza. That’s the only word that can describe Heather Thomas in the 1970s. Heck, even in the 1980s. Double heck, even today. Most audiences know Thomas as one of the stars of The Fall Guy, but she got her start at UCLA Film School where she was studying to be a writer and director. She didn’t even want to act.

Her life changed in a big way when she was cast as Jody Banks in The Fall Guy, a series that ran for five years and made her an international star. Almost overnight she went from being behind the camera talent to someone whose image was posted all over the world.

Thomas had to retire from acting because she was dealing with stalkers, but today she’s still writing and working as an activist.

When it comes to female action heroes, Daisy Duke is easily one of the coolest gals on television whether we’re talking about the groovy era or not. Sure, them Duke Boys had more screen time but who’s counting? Everyone who tuned into The Dukes Of Hazzard week after week was doing so to sneak a peek at Catherine Bach.

Not just a babe in a pair of short denim shorts, Daisy Duke was an integral part of the series. She got into the action and mixed it up with the guys, showing young girls in the audience that anything is possible. When discussing why Daisy Duke remains an icon, Bach explained:

Whatever she did, she could shoot better, drive better, do everything better than a guy. Whenever the guys were in trouble, she stepped in. She wasn’t acting tough, she just was.

In the 1980s, the queen of Halloween, Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, lorded over Los Angeles. The character played by Cassandra Peterson was brought in to host a late night horror show and she quickly became one of the most beloved horror hosts of all time.

When Peterson was first getting started with the role she didn’t believe that it would ever take off, specifically because of her goth valley girl outfit. However, she was quickly surprised. She told Time:

I got a part to host horror films on local TV in L.A., and I was told to come up with a look and a costume. An artist friend drew a picture. And I said, ‘Are you kidding me? There’s no way in hell they’re going to let me on TV in that.’ And they did! The general manager’s only comment was, ‘Can you make the slit on the leg a little higher?’

Long before she was one of the most high paid actresses on television with her role in Modern Family, Sophia Vergara was the star of the telenovela Acapulco, Cuerpo, y Alma, and way before that she was a model turned television presenter. She’s lived many lives and she’s been absolutely stunning in all of them.

It’s amazing to see how little Vergara has changed in the years since this photo was taken. Even though our brains, Wikipedia, and the concept of time and space tell us that she’s aged, our eyes say that it’s just not so. Hopefully we’ll get to see more of Vergara soon, but for now these photos will just have to do.

While Blondie was burning up the club scene of New York City in the 1970s, Harry was using everything she learned about performance from her previous life as a folk singer and back up vocalist in Greenwich Village.

For Harry, everything she did was moving towards the next thing. She was never satisfied with just a good show or one hit single, she wanted to keep improving and getting better. She told Dazed:

This shot from Battle of the Network Stars shows just how rocking Lynda Carter was whether she was in the guise of Wonder Woman or not. A fitness junkie from before she was on television, Carter has always made sure she’s camera ready no matter the decade.

However, Carter isn’t like a lot of stars who take part in crash diets and intense work out regimes to maintain her look. According to Carter all she really does is maintain portion control:

I eat whatever I want, I just cut down on the portion size. It’s all about portion control, portion control, portion control. I have a better relationship with food now, but I struggle with my weight.

It turns out that’s all it takes to be a wonder woman.
