Editor's note: Here's an article from our archives, updated for 2010.

Of all the DC superheroes, Wonder Woman was the one who most appealed to little girls from my generation, growing up in the 1970s and introduced to her both in "The New Adventures of Wonder Woman" from 1974-1979 and in the Saturday morning cartoon "Super Friends," where she and her invisible jet fought for truth, justice and the American way alongside her DC comrades Batman and Superman. The following is a guide to the series starring Lynda Carter as the eponymous heroine.

The DC heroine's TV journey began with a movie simply called "Wonder Woman" from 1974, starring Cathy Lee Crosby, which premiered on ABC as a Tuesday Movie of the Week. Critics said her heroine bore little resemblance to the Wonder Woman of the comics and the boring plotline didn't help. ABC tried again with Lynda Carter; and the new series, called "The New Adventures" to distinguish it from the original movie, also deviated quite a bit from the comic-book version. It was set in World War II, a period piece that proved expensive to film; when CBS took the show over the following season for that reason, it moved the time frame to the present-day. Diana Prince returned to the U.S. and there met the son of her original friend, Major Trevor (Lyle Waggoner). The show lasted two more seasons and was said to have been cancelled so that CBS could focus more on its sitcom offerings.

Please note that some other guides refer to the show has having aired over four seasons rather than three. This is because the pilot and the first few episodes aired many months ahead of the later season one episodes, which began in fall 1976, and are sometimes considered to be a season of their own.
