You can't beat this price for all 3 seasons of Wonder Woman. As it says in one of the documentary extras in this set, the casting of Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman is perfection. In a series that could have been merely a campy spectacle, the fact that Lynda believes in her character and the power of women is very evident. The guest stars are impressive (Cloris Leachman, Kenneth Mars, Red Buttons, Stella Stevens) and the documentaries in each set are a nice addition. The commentary also adds interest, listening to Lynda and Producer Douglas Cramer (of "Dynasty" fame) reminisce about the series. Interesting tidbit: the fight between Stella Stevens and Lynda Carter was the inspiration for the catfight between Krystal and Alexis on "Dynasty" a few years later. In a day and age where computer graphics and sophisticated special effects abound, the simplicity of the production make it stand out in a positive way. Snap this set up while the price is this low!

I received all 3 seasons for Christmas and I can't stop watching. I am totally addicted all over again. There are great special features that you just will never get anywhere else. Recent interviews with Lynda Carter (she still looks amazing) are so endearing as she never has regretted a moment of being permanently cast as Wonder Women. She totally loves the character and the series. She has you believing that she would sit right on the couch and watch with you. Gotta love her! The theme music just gave me major flash backs to some great memories. I watched religiously as a child because watching Lynda Carter was like watching my mom but as a super crime fighting super model. Not to mention Diana Prince was so naive, innocent and a heart of gold. That fit me to a T! I never buy DVD's because I get tired of them so fast. That will never happen with this set. God, please let there be a movie and god I hope they can do it justice. Maybe Linda could play the Queen on Paradise Island. Well we can hope.....

You'll love this trip down memory lane. All three seasons are included here. From the campy 1st season set in Nazi era WW II, to the less campy-better scripts and costume season 2 and finally to the season 3 full of camp and care. Lynda Carter epitomizes the true nature of William Moulton's comic character. Feministic without the obligatory Hillary Clinton teeth and affect. This series, in it's 3 short seasons, deserved more time. Perhaps Ms. Carter was tired in the end, so perhaps it's best that the show ended. To re-cast "Wonder Woman" with any other actress would have been a travesty.
The extras aren't that great. It is my opinion that WB could have injected some care and research in this faction. The DVD transfer quality is superb and as clear as a blue sky.
Buy and be happy.

This show was wonderfull to watch when I was growing up. Me, like a lot of guys have a major crush on "Diana Prince"!! I gave this only four stars because the third season is more than a bit week storywise. The guest stars were featured too much and Wonder Women was too slow to catch the bad-guys. She was suposed to have super-speed!!! If she could run fast why did she think that she needed a moterbike or a horse? The acting overall was exelent though!! When I was little I was so glad she was on my side!!!!!

It was wonderful to see this great TV series again. My Father
passed away just 4 months ago and my dad and I always did watch
Wonder Woman together when it was on at night. Watching this
again was not only terrific, but brought back good memories!
