Wonder Woman
Episode Reviews
Disregarding an unsold pilot film starring Cathy Lee Crosby as the title character, William Moulton Marston's celebrated comic-book superheroine Wonder Woman made her TV bow in the formidable person of Lynda Carter. Introduced on November 7, 1975, with the two-hour opener The New Original Wonder Woman, the ABC fantasy adventure series began its semi-weekly run on April 21, 1976. Initially set during the WWII years, the series chronicled the adventures of a legendary Amazonian princess who hailed from Paradise Island, where her forebears had fled from male persecution back in the third century B.C. Like the other female residents of Paradise Island, Wonder Woman had powers far beyond those of ordinary women, and was decked out with gold bracelets and a golden belt containing the miracle metal Feminum, enabling her to deflect bullets with her wrists. She also possessed a golden lasso with which she "wrangled" various villains. Assuming the "mortal" identity of Diana Prince, Wonder Woman joined the U.S. army air corps as a yeoman, the better to be near handsome pilot Major Steve Trevor (Lyle Waggoner), whom she'd met when his plane crash-landed on Paradise Island. Since "Diana" wore glasses and dressed more modestly than her "real" self, Steve never quite caught on that she and Wonder Woman were one in the same. Most of the first-season episodes found Diana Prince helping Steve battle Nazi spies and saboteurs, with our heroine transforming herself into Wonder Woman by twirling around and around at super speed. These early episodes also featured Wonder Woman's younger sister Drusilla (aka Wonder Girl), played by no less than Debra Winger; also, Beatrice Cohen appeared as Corporal Etta Candy, Diana's best friend.
When Wonder Woman moved from ABC to CBS for its second season, quite a few changes were imposed upon its format. First, the title was altered to The New Adventures of Wonder Woman. Second, the series' time frame was moved up from the 1940s to the 1970s, with Diana/Wonder Woman fighting contemporary baddies on behalf of the IADC (Inter-Agency Defense Command), headed by Joe Atkinson (Norman Burton). Finally, Steve Trevor was replaced by his lookalike son (and W.W.'s immediate superior), Steve Trevor Jr. (played again by Lyle Waggoner), who because Wonder Woman was "immortal" appeared to be the same age as the heroine -- or, more accurately, she appeared to be the same age as he. Other additions to the property included IADC's all-purpose computer I.R.A. (voiced by Tom Kratochzil) and Steve Jr.'s secretary, Eve (Saundra Sharp). In this revised form, The New Adventures of Wonder Woman survived on CBS until September 11, 1979. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

My Thoughts:
I have many fond childhood memories watching Wonder Woman. Much like The Incredible Hulk it was a series I would never miss. I always felt it was a great adventure series with a hot, strong woman lead. I had always liked a strong woman... so needless to say Lynda Carter's Wonder Woman was very drool-worthy for me.Notice that I am NOT calling this a marathon, I got thinking about this yesterday.... and while I do watch my series in marathon like splotches... I seldomly watch a show straight through to the end to call it a true marathon. So I won't be using that term any longer for my TV Series threads.
I have all 3 seasons. So I will be able to eventually review every single episode. But you may find it surprising that there won't be many really good reviews in the first season. As unlike many people... the first season is my least favorite of the series. I never really liked the war-time Nazi episodes all that much. I always much preferred the episodes that took place in the 70's Which of course was modern time at the time the series aired. So many of my favorite episodes are from the second and third seasons.

My Thoughts:
As I said earlier in this thread... I never cared much for the episodes of this first season. Being centered around the war and the Nazis. But this pilot movie is an exception to that rule. I felt it is an excellent introduction to the characters. In this movie Cloris Leechman played the Queen, Diana Prince's mother, and she did a wonderful job in the role. I can't stress enough how perfect the lovely Lynda Carter is in the role of Diana Prince/Wonder Woman. She does a great job and looks just like you would expect Wonder Woman to look in real life.
The scenes on Paradise Island are both entertaining and breathtaking. Not only breathtaking for the fact of all the beautiful scenery... but come on now... it is an island full of nothing but beautiful women! The whole tournament thing was also a lot of fun to watch. Then the whole show she did when Wonder Woman first got to the states. Had to love when she deflected the bullets from the machine gun.
One thing I noticed about the first few episode... when Diana Prince twirls around to change to Wonder Woman... instead of just magically changing... her street clothes disappearing... they are still in her hands and she has to find a place to stash them. This is understandably changed within the first few episodes.

My Thoughts:
This episode... while alright... is not a favorite. I do like a few of the characters. Like the boy who is obsessed with being a detective like his hero Sherlock Holmes. But for the most part I didn't care about the majority of them. The story was interesting... but not as good as it could have been.

2. FAUSTA: THE NAZI WONDER WOMAN

Is there enough room in the world for two Wonder Women? Not when one of them is a Nazi spy intent on capturing the real Amazonian hero and discovering her secrets for the benefit of Hitler' Master Race!
Guest Stars: Bo Brundin as Colonel KesselmannColby Chester as Charlie Scotts Jeff Cooper as Nazi Keene Curtis as Nazi Bill Fletcher as Nazi Lynda Day George as Fausta Grabels | Writer/Director Charles Moulton - WriterBarry Crane - Director |
My Thoughts:
This one is actually quite a bit of fun. I liked the whole set-up on how the Nazis captured Wonder Woman. And how the head of this group of Nazis wouldn't listen to the woman that captured Wonder Woman of course made him look like an idiot. I also got a kick out of Steve going to try to rescue Wonder Woman... gets captured himself... making Wonder Woman go back to Germany to rescue him. I did feel the way Fausta Grabels did a complete turn around at the end was a bit far fetched... but was a minor thing compared to the rest of the episode.

My Thoughts:
This is another entertaining episode. Though I must say I did not like Lynda Carter in that wig! Her natural hair looks so much better! But it was fun watching an episode with her in a beauty pageant. And Dick Van Patten made a great MC for it. I enjoyed his character quite a bit... he had some good bad jokes.

Airdate: Nov. 8, 1976
Enter WONDER GIRL! Drusilla, Diana's younger sister, arrives from PARADISE ISLAND and plunges ito wartime intrigue when agents eager to find the source of the secret substance Feminum kidnap her.
Guest Stars: Carolyn Jones as Queen HippolytaCharles Frank as Peter Knight Paul Shenar as Wertz Kurt Kreuger as Hemmschler Debra Winger as Drusilla/Wonder Girl | Writer/Director Jimmy Sangster - WriterHerb Wallerstein - Director |
My Thoughts:
Well... what to talk about first here. This is the first appearance of Drusilla/Wonder Girl... Diana/Wonder Woman's little sister... of course played by Debra Winger. I always liked the few episodes she shows up in. Really a fun character. It is a shame they never brought her back for any episodes in seasons 2 or 3. Apparently they were not able to get Cloris Leachman to come back to play the Queen. So they got Carolyn Jones to play the part. You may know her as Morticia on The Addams Family. And even though she did a very good job as the Queen... I did see a little of Morticia in the character. Obviously not the style or mannerisms... but more in the way she did a few of her lines. All I could think is "I could so see Morticia saying that!" It was also fun seeing the scenes at Paradise Island once again. This time much more in the two part episode.
I must say though... Steve Trevor and others are so stupid not being able to realize Diana Prince is Wonder Woman. Especially when just as soon as Diana Prince's sister shows up so does Wonder Woman's. But of course they have to. No different then Lois Lane and others not realizing that Clark Kent is Superman.

I have to admit. If I can go by this disc... I may have been a little strong on my dislike of the first season. I am enjoying it much more then I remembered I did. While it I am sure it will still be my least favorite season... it is much better then I remember it being... so it is far from bad.
I told a couple friends that do not frequent forums that I started watching these episodes today... and the first thing one girl said to me was... "I hope you have a drool bib ready!" :laugh: That is of course a fair statement as hot as Lynda Carter was in this series. I recently seen Lynda Carter in a movie from 2005 (Sky High) and another from 2006 (Slayer) and I must admit... she still looks gorgeous! Especially considering she is almost 60 years old! :o

My Thoughts:
This episode has two very familiar faces from sitcoms of the time. The first being Robert Reed who played the father on The Brady Bunch. And then there is Hayden Rorke who played the curios psychiatrist on I Dream of Jeannie. While I liked seeing these familiar faces... the episode itself really is no more then an average one. Enjoyable to watch... but nothing much special about it.

Wonder Woman: Season 1
(http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4121/4745772297_64c2fa4708.jpg)
8. LAST OF THE TWO-DOLLAR BILLS
Airdate: Jan. 8, 1977
A diabolical Nazi plot to undermine the economy! The plan: paper the nation with counterfeit currency and replace monetary overseers with enemy agents who are lookalikes of the actual officials.
Guest Stars: James Olson as WotanBarbara Anderson as Maggie Rollins David Cryer as Hank John Howard as Dr. Diderich Richard O'Brien as Frank Wilson | Writer/Director Paul Dubov - WriterGwen Bagni - Writer Stuart Margollin - Director |
My Thoughts:
This one is another just average episode. But it does mark the very first time Wonder Woman used her head band as a boomerang. In this episode it is just a round crown-liked band... though I do remember them improving on this in the (I believe) second season.

My Thoughts:
This is one 2 part episode I never cared for. I just didn't care for the story or the characters enough. It is like they went heavier on the story and less with the action/adventure. But they really didn't know how to go about it.

My Thoughts:
Much like the first part... I just couldn't get into this one much. I think this 2 part episode is one of the few that I kept remembering when I believed the first season to be so bad. Thankfully the most of this season has not been as bad as I remembered. But this one is one of the few that is hard for me to sit through and give my full attention to.

My Thoughts:
Now this episode I enjoyed. Definitely an entertaining one here. There is of course a famous guest star in this episode with Roy Rogers. This one has likable characters as well as a good, fun storyline. If there is anything I don't like about this episode it is Wonder Woman's Texan outfit... long sleeves and long pants?.... definitely covers too much! :P

13. WONDER WOMAN IN HOLLYWOOD
Airdate: Feb. 16, 1977
Wonder Woman and WONDER GIRL are in Tinseltown! Good thing, too, what with enemy agents kidnapping the GI heroes who are taking part in the fliming of a wartime spirit-lifter about their exploits.
Guest Stars: Harris Yulin as Mark BremerRobert Hays as Corporal Jim Ames Christopher Norris as Gloria Charles Cyphers as Kurt Alan Bergmann as Director Carolyn Jones as Queen Debra Winger as Drusilla | Writer/Director Jimmy Sangster - WriterBruce Bilson - Director |
My Thoughts:
Woohoo! We have another (and if I remember correctly the last) episode with Debra Winger Wonder Girl. We also have Carolyn Jones recurring her role as the Queen. This is a very fun and entertaining episode. I enjoyed every minute of it. I would have liked to of seen a little more time of them on Paradise Island though.
After watching this episode I watched a featurette on the disc. And I must say... Lynda Carter... even in her advanced age... remains a beautiful woman. It is hard to believe she is almost 60yrs old now!

1. THE RETURN OF WONDER WOMAN
Airdate: Sept. 16, 1977
A terrorist act has one good outcome: Wonder Woman again straps on her belt and bracelets to fight evil.
Guest Stars: Fritz Weaver as Dr. SolanoBettye Ackerman as Asclepia Jessica Walter as Gloria Beatrice Straight as The Queen David Knapp as Major Gaines | Writer/Director Stephen Kandel - WriterAlan Crosland - Director |
My Thoughts:
This season the series moves from ABC to CBS. With this move was a lot of changes. One being making it set in the modern times of the '70s. They also added the ability for Wonder Woman to make people forget things when wrapped in her magic lasso. They improved the headband changing into a boomerang. They also made her costume a little different. Especially in the chest area... changing the eagle's wings.
They also changed The Queen of Paradise Island once again. In the pilot movie Cloris Leachman played her... in season 1 she was played by Carolyn Jones... and now in season 2 she is played by Beatrice Straight. It is a shame. I really liked Carolyn Jones in the role. Unfortunately Beatrice Straight didn't impress me all that much. I enjoyed this double length episode quite a bit. While I enjoyed the first season more then I remembered... I am glad to be into the second season.

My Thoughts:
Well... it didn't take long for them to do a storyline involving the Nazis again even though the setting is now in the '70s. I felt it was only an average episode. I think we would have been better off without the idea of cloning Hitler. They should have just left the whole Nazi storyline left in season 1.

My Thoughts:
This is an entertaining episode. I liked the story lines and the characters. This is a story based on a misunderstanding... one that haunted a man since his childhood. I liked how they had some old Wonder Woman memorabilia in his house. It was a reminder of the kind of stuff they sold back when this series was on the air.

My Thoughts:
As you can see from the last picture below... this is the first appearance of her swimming outfit. I personally would have rather seen a red, white and blue bikini... but what can you do? :P
It is not a bad episode... but not one of my favorites either. I just couldn't get myself to care about the characters and storyline on this one. I would say it is just an average episode.

My Thoughts:
How could I possible not watch some episodes knowing today is Lynda Carter's birthday? I enjoyed this episode. It is a little on the slow side... and very story oriented. But it is an interesting story. And I liked the characters involved.

6. THE PIED PIPER
Airdate: Oct. 21, 1977
There's money in the music biz, A rock god uses hypnosis to control his entourage of thieving groupies.
Guest Stars: Martin Mull as Hamlin RuleDenny Miller as Carl Schwartz Eve Plumb as Elena Bob Hastings as Gatekeeper George Cooper as Manager Amos Hoffman | Writer/Director David Ketchum - WriterTony DiMarco - Writer Brian McKay - Writer Alan Crosland - Director |
My Thoughts:
This is actually one of my least favorite episodes. Obviously I don't like all the music in it. Plus the storyline don't do much for me. Martin Mull's character seemed little more then silly to me. But I did like the whole change to Wonder Woman by the spinning chair thing. But I must say... even in these bad episodes it is a pleasure to watch Lynda Carter running around in that Wonder Woman costume! In this one... Joe Atkin's daughter is played by none of then Eve Plumb.... Jan on The Brady Bunch.

My Thoughts:
I liked this one... but think the storyline could have been tweaked to be a little better. But I did really like the scene where Wonder Woman was hung upside down by her magic lasso to get to the safe she had to get into.

My Thoughts:
This one I enjoyed quite a bit. I really liked the story and characters both. In this one Diana Prince and another agent goes under cover as newlyweds. But as you can see in the above picture they even go as far as putting on a fake wedding.
