On Battle of the Network Stars, former ABC stars are competing against former prime-time soap opera stars like Knots Landing’s Donna Mills. (She looks gorgeous at 76!) There will be many familiar faces on the ABC Stars team including Anson Williams (Potsie Weber on Happy Days) and Shari Belafronte (Julie Gillette on Hotel). Another familiar face belongs to Olivia d’Abo.
d’Abo famously played Kevin’s (Fred Savage) older, rebellious sister Karen in The Wonder Years (1988-1993). Since then she’s appeared in several movies including Wayne’s World 2 (Betty Jo), Kicking and Screaming (Jane), and on the TV shows including Law & Order: Criminal Intent (psychopath Nicole Wallace/Elizabeth Hitchens), among others. d’Abo is also known as a voice actor — she was the voice of Jane on The Legend of Tarzan and Morgaine le Fey in Justice League. d’Abo also sings.
