Lyle Waggoner

Carol Burnett opened with a Q&A, then detonated sketches with Harvey Korman, Tim Conway, Vicki Lawrence, and Waggoner as the regular who made the parody look expensive. Eleven CBS seasons of curtain-call craft. He is the straight face the ad-libs need — the leading-man silhouette inside a variety hour that treated movie send-ups as a weekly civic event.

Call The Carol Burnett Show the CBS 1967–1978 contract. Regular is the assignment on the work order. File s01e01 as ignition: Jim Nabors on the first night: Burnett's Q&A-then-sketches contract announced, the ensemble still finding the detonator. s01e04 is later weather: Lucille Ball and Tim Conway share the hour: movie-parody DNA meeting the corpse-making ad-lib that later became house style. The desk does not need a trailer beat. Waggoner's place in the room is the point.

Wonder Woman handed him Lynda Carter’s orbit: golden lasso, WWII ABC season then modern CBS years, a twirl that became Halloween permanent. Female superhero as viable disco-decade franchise. On TV Flash Waggoner is 1960s–70s handsome-as-structure: sketch partner, then the uniform beside the lasso. Sincerity, style, and a frame that knew when not to steal the spin.

Wonder Woman (ABC/CBS, 1975–1979) is the 1970s room where Waggoner does Steve Trevor as the actual work. s01e03 is a useful mid-run tab — Fausta: The Nazi Wonder Woman is WWII-season pulp with a double in the title. Female superhero as viable disco-decade franchise, still playing period adventure without camp apology. The handshake remains s01e01: The New Original Wonder Woman is the live-action origin a generation kept. Carter spins into patriotic swimsuit glory; golden lasso sincerity, not a smirk, as the 1975 brief. TV Flash files Waggoner here as craft you can actually cue.
