There have been several attempts to bring Wonder Woman to the screen. And while some were successful, The New Original Wonder Woman series 1975-1979 and the 2017 Wonder Woman film, others have missed the mark like a poorly thrown javelin. This week the Regular Joes, joined by noted bad film aficionado Jim Bush, provide a live commentary analysis of the rarely seen 1974 series pilot which was released as TV movie. Which was, perhaps until this episode, actually much better in Tod’s head. If you wish to follow along the video is available for rental from Amazon. Note it is also available for purchase . . . but we don’t recommend that. With Cathy Lee Crosby (of later “That’s Incredible” fame) and Ricardo Montalban, who seems to be channeling his impending Fantasy Island role as Mr. Roarke, this is a Wonder Woman like no other. And perhaps that’s for the best. On the upside, there are more phone conversations and burros than in any other adaptation. Thanks for Listening . . . and maybe watching along.
