Wonder Woman TV Series Review


 I remember as a kid, watching this show and only being interested in when Linda Carter transformed into Wonder Woman. Other than that I thought it was boring. 

Well, I decided to watch it again during lunch breaks for something to watch while I ate and....it's worse than I remember. 

The stories make little to no sense. And towards the end of the series Diana Prince doesn't even bother wearing glasses most of the time meaning the only difference in her look is whether her hair's in a pony tail or not. Really shoddy. 

The stories are far fetched and borderline weird. Like one where a lady can control ants....who eat the wood inside buildings....like termites? 

The last episode was an attempt to reboot the series by moving Wonder Woman to Los Angeles, where she teamed up with an indestructible man and monkey as well as a kid who doubled as a human vending machine for one of the highest spy agencies in the US. 

Oh and how did she get a job with the IADC? She hypnotized one person and got in. Having access to all the deepest secrets the government had to offer. Some security we had back in the 70's!

The first season took place during the 40's where Nazi's were the villain. But to cut on costs, they had to move the series to the present time....sadly it didn't improve the story. In fact, the first season is really the best overall. The invisible jet and wonder girl are featured in a few episodes in the first season too which makes it a little more special. 

Overall, the only good thing about the series was Linda Carter. She was hot. Only reason to watch it and you shouldn't watch it. Just check out pics of Linda Carter instead. Much better than the series.
