Let's face it, Diana has been remade, remixed and sometimes just plain reduced to camp. However, unlike most superheroes, WW has been on TV in more forms than most.
So I wanted to take this time showcase some of Diana's interesting moments on TV.
Who's Afraid of Diana Prince? - Well, I was when I saw this BROKE pilot, made by the folks who gave us the campy Batman series.
Blonde Ambition - This version of Diana was a bust, but I kind of liked it.
Wonder Girl Chicken came before the WW Egg- Okay, I tried to be funny, but I found it interesting that a Wonder Girl cartoon was on TV before a Wonder Woman cartoon... So odd.
WW's First Cartoon Appearance - The Justice League of America, Batman and Superman had their own cartoon in the 60s, but it wasn't until 1972, Diana was featured in cartoons. The funny thing about her 1st appearance... It was in The Brady Kids
Wonder Woman & the Super Friends- Diana was added into Super Friends in 1973, some say as a way to prepare for the TV series. Check out her best moments from the very first season.
Wonder Woman, Live Action- After many trials and try-outs for the role, Lynda Carter became a legend... And everything changed.
Wonder Girl again? - Debra Winger played Diana's sister in the 1st season of Wonder Woman. Her name was Drusilla and NOT Donna.

- Wonder Man
- I'm very laid back and easy going. I like to meet people, read, talk about politics, culture and life. I am a huge comic book fan (X-Men family and Wonder Woman) I also want to say that I am a proud black gay man...no 'down low' drama here

That pilot is terrible! Her nagging mom! That stupid revolving door, tacky ass costume, 1950 sex music! The camp sex appeal of a Carol Burnett character! And that Batman Voiceover! Jeebuz!
LOL @ Blonde Ambition. That lady don't look like WW. But her Charlies Angels costume/ fight moves are hot.
It's hard to judge the Wonder Girl Cartoon. Even when cartoons are dated, i still find charm i them. That music is so damn... odd.
Brady Kids? Well, hell... Simpsons started from Tracey Ullman. (but that goddamn laugh track and silly sound effects are cringeworthy.)
You know me well enough to know... Superfriends is my SHIZ! And that music mix is fire! (Wait, did that chick still a glacier for some farm water. So she set off global warming!)
Lynda carter, loved the show, especially Season 2, and love the hell outta that song!
First I gotta say... "Damn, Debra Winger had a body on her!" Now, Have you seen that awesome scene, when Debra Winger was on David Letterman's show, and ended the interview by taking off her clothes, revealing a wondergirl outfit... and running thru the audience?
