Lynda Carter for the win

She smiled devilishly. Perhaps that would be her plan, to take out all the bad guys (with just a mild shock to their systems) who were trying to swim away from IADC agent Diana Prince...

As much as I love Lynda Carter, I don't want to give the Daily Mail my clicks.

She is just not afraid of anybody (and rightly so, with Wonder that she can do what she can do.)

E.T.A. Holy Moley!

 

So, as you look at the picture, letter L (on the left), or letter R (on the right)?

 

I would choose Miss Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman, letter R, every step of, and every spinning transformation of, all the way!

Lynda Carter for the WIN
 

Depends on the writing...

For the kinds of stories that were in the TV show, absolutely... Lynda all the way. There was a kindness and gentleness that fitted her personality and acting persona, and the more civilized story telling of the time.

But for the two WW movies... I don't think those would have fit Lynda's acting persona very well. Even if both actors been the same age, there was an edginess and raw violence and kickass in both movies that were probably a better fit for Gal. 

Or so it seems to me...

Looking at it again Shadar, I think you are right. It depended on the styles of the plot. Lynda's Wonder Woman was geared towards an early Saturday evening family-orientated TV show, whereas Gal's version was more of a Kick-ass Amazon Warrior Hollywood-type performance. They both deserve their own rightful places in the genre.

Interesting to note, I read an article where Lynda was being interviewed, and she too was caught up in who was the best Wonder Woman. All she would say was, that wasn't the point or purpose of portraying Wonder Woman by duelling against each other as the role of 'the best'. Lynda added that was not what Wonder Woman stood for.

Speaking of an unfortunate, which, I wish this wasn't true.

This cancellation is understandable I suppose. After Wonder Woman Episode One was the massive hit that it was, set back in the war years, Wonder Woman Part 2 was a disappointment set in the modern day.
Patty Jenkins tried to sell a WW3 (I'm not sure what timeline she would be using for Episode 3) to the producers. They turned it down, and she walked away.
