Wonder Woman - Series 3 Box Set [DVD] [1978] With a crack of her gold whip and a shimmy into her snug superhero suit, Lynda Carter perfectly embodied the tough, sassy spirit of 'Wonder Woman' in this television adaptation of the original comic book series. The male-dominated superhero genre got a feminist jolt when Wonder Woman first appeared on screens in 1976, with Carter taking on all manner of evildoers in her attempts to ensure that justice prevails. She works by day as a Peter Parker-style worker, clad in glasses and unassuming business clothes. But when crime comes calling, a quick twirl sees Wonder Woman transformed into a superhero vixen, making the world a better place with the help of her magic belt, bullet-proof bracelets, and magical lasso. As another reviewer notes this season really went beyond ludicrous with some of the plots and the identity of Wonder Woman's alter ego should have been so obvious, maybe that is why Lyle Waggoner's character faded more and more as the season progressed. That said Lynda Carter still looked fantastic (and even curvier still?) and gave the part(s) her all. It seems such a shame that the show was cancelled (apparently simply due to CBS wanting to try other shows in the slot formerly used for Wonder Woman) even if the plots were pushing the level of camp and believability to the limits and beyond! The final single episode (prior to the two part Phantom Of The Roller Coaster) seemed to indicate a possible new direction should Season 4 ever happen as Diana moved to LA from the "native" Washington DC. I wonder (pardon the pun) whether this was what the writers were considering for the show's future and would the part of Steve Trevor disappear along with the amazing computer Ira? So many questions went un-answered as Wonder Woman abruptly disappeared and it is only recently that the idea of re-doing the theme of Wonder Woman as a film has been addressed. I would be interested to see the movie but no matter which stunning actress they find to play the part I don't think I will ever be able to see anyone in that sexy outfit other than Lynda Carter. She appeared in the first of the new Dukes Of Hazzard movies and still looked fabulous and I would be willing to bet she would still fill that costume perfectly even 30 years after the show was cancelled. Lynda Carter was, is and always will be Wonder Woman and it really is such a shame that we only ever got three seasons - Lynda you were the best! 4 Disc Box Set In As New Condition |
