Remember Lynda Carter in the 1970’s television series The New Adventures of Wonder Woman (1975–79)??? She and Lindsay Wagner, as the Bionic Woman, were every school boy’s dream back in the seventies. Well, like the Bionic Woman, NBC has just announced they will be remaking Wonder Woman (at least the pilot) for this Fall (seems like no past show is safe….but that is a whole other discussion).
Anyone heard any rumors (or have any bets) on who will be playing the new Diana Prince???

I liked the Bionic Woman way more than Wonder Woman. I wonder who would win in a fight? 😉
Wonder Woman would definetly win. The Bionic Woman’s bionics were always messing up.
I have absolutely no clue, but Olivia Munn would be perfect!
Sarah Lancaster from ‘Chuck’ would be pretty good. Still, it would be hard to compete with Lynda Carter, she was (still is) sensational.
The new Wonder Woman is going to be played by a Jack Black impersonator.
I thought Penny from The Big Bang Theory did a good job, with or without the wig!!!!
When they were talking about the justice league movie an Australian model called Megan Gale was to play WW. Oh and Godmode, when you say a Jack Black impersonator do you mean an overrated overweight pain in the ass will play WW. Because I don’t see it.
The folks over @ Wired.com developed a list of: 10 Mandates for a Kick-Ass Wonder Woman TV Show. All of which I agree with; bottom line is make her/the show more about her being a lean, mean (kick-ass) superhero vs soap opera/feelings/girlie.

I read somewhere that Christine Hendricks of Mad Men is interested in the part.
Wonder Woman would win in a fight against The Bionic Woman. Why? Well Wonder Woman is a Amazon who has been gifted, above all the other Amazons, by the Greek Gods. THus she has super strength(that has rivaled Superman), has has the industructable bracelets and lasso. Once someone is tied up with the lasso they cannot escape it, she herself is highly invunrable. She has god like speed.
Bionic Woman is only strong in one arm, sure she is fast and has super hearing. But all of her abilities are due to technology
Wonder Woman would wipe the floor with her.
This is exciting! I hope they include her nemisis/twin Nubia in the line up like in the old series.
I’ll bet you anything this doesn’t come to happen. They’ve been closer to doing a WW project several times in the last 10 years and always fizzled out. Just like with Joss Wheddon.
You can’t really say Wonder Woman is back this fall with the crap NBC is handing fans. EVERYTHING about this shows looks and smells like a toxic waste dump!!! Ugly actress as Wonder Woman. A costume that no woman should be caught dead in it looks HORRIBLE. The first version and the second just give her back the correct iconic one that she should be in. The tiara sucks, fake boobs, too much make up, three identities, making dolls of herself. I could be all day saying how junked up this travesty is. Just burn it already along with that Salvation Army costume that looks like a car tarp gone bad.
Well craploa, nice to see that you’re holding something back. Adrianne Palicki is not ugly. But then people will always be wankers online. How beautiful are you?
