Wonder Woman - The Complete Second Season (DVD, 2005)

Just as good as the first season, you need to have seen it when the shows first aired to enjoy them as I do. Many more episodes then the first season but just as antique as the first season. I loved the dvd set and I have already bought the 3 season! If you love Wonder Woman as I do this is a must have set!

I loved it--this was my favorite show as a child & the dvd is great--it even had a special feature with Lynda Carter--it was great--if you are a fan of Wonder Woman this is a must have!!!

Wonder Woman, despite good ratings, got a poor break from ABC television during its first season. Irregularly on the schedule, and moved from night to night, it was difficult for fans to figure out when it would be broadcast. The series was somewhat expensive to shoot, with its authentic period automobiles and wardrobe, After midseason, it became obvious that the caricature rogues gallery featured in the original comic strip in the 40's, similar to those of Batman, would not work for television. Flash-forward: CBS picks up the series for its second season, and sets the tone for a dramatic treatment. In 1977, Steve Trevor, Jr., is one of a group of worldleaders whose jet is sabotaged near Paradise Island. Princess Diana to the rescue! After the Queen learns of sabotage plots and the endangerment of world peace, she decides to send "Wonder Woman," back out to man's world. This time, Diana's cousin, Evadne, challenges her for the costume, but Diana wins, and heads back out. Her new guise, agent Diana Prince, for the Inter Agency Defense Command, a CIA espionage-based governmental group. This time, she crashes the agency's computer system to create a backstory for herself, a 27 year-old three year agency veteran, whose records were lost by Berkely University, with a very high pay grade! Diana dresses like a school marm, with cleavage and body hugging dresses, but frills and full skirts abounding, and severe Gibson-Girl hair with large glasses. The first several episodes feature notable guest stars, and a large amount of special effects---multiple change sequences, use of nearly every power in almost every episode, including the tiara as a boomerang, and notable guest stars. The updated comic strip theme is removed after eight episodes, to feature a live-action montage of action clips, and eventually, more disco strings than brass band. After the first eight episodes, Diana Prince gets more trendy clothes, a relaxed ponytail, braid, or other modern off-the-face hair, and wears her glasses less, but is on screen more. Her Wonder Woman personna is used mostly to escape from dangerous situations, confront dangerous criminals for capture, and to accomplish spy tasks that she couldn't otherwise. Stories and scripts become less plausible, and often focus on infilitrating criminal organizations undercover. Flashy swim and cycling costumes appear, and special effects largely focus on jumping by the end of the season. The series takes a downward turn with "Murderous Missile," in which Wonder Woman rides a cycle to chase a stolen missle. This continues to be true for the remainder of the second season, leaving the third, and worst season, to follow. Lynda rounds out the Diana character, but all of the scripts after about episode 10 begin to take the series TOO seriously, much the same as the comic of the era, where Diana works for the U.N. Enjoyable, but uneven scripting and continuity, obvious use of stunt doubles make it less likable after the midpoint of the season. Fun: overkill on special effects in the first several episodes, guest stars, and seeing how many ways Diana will change (a spinning chair, rolling down a cliff, etc.) and how many HUGE tinted glasses she owns. Suspension of disbelief is necessary: Diana looks virtually the same as Wonder Woman by the middle of the season; Lynda stops wearing as many hairpieces and wigs as Wonder Woman, and Diana's svelte figure is on display in swimwear (modest), leaving no secrets of identity!

I can remeber being six years old when Wonder Woman, first aired in sevnty-six. I thought Lynda Careter, had the most amazing eyes, and the things that she could do as wonder woman! just blew my mind.Okay! I know that was a long time ago and all, but If you were a kid when I was, then you can understand that before Britany,and Madonna, Lynda Carter, was an original crime fighting diva I can't imagine anyone else as this charachter but Lynda, to bring a comic character to life like she did... and now look at some of the new comic books about wonder woman still is not the same. To really appreciate this character you have to view these old shows I recommend it!!!!!

Thanks great shipping time and my little girl really loves the movie once again thanks for grerat shipping time.

Wonderful Show. Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman is the best. Anyone who loves action with very good stories should get this series. Highly recommended.

It was a great purchase. Received the product in a few days and was able to coordinate everything very well.

Thank you for a great purchase!

this is as described will recommend this seller i recieved fast will buy more i saved this seller so can buy more from them. i love to buy from ones that they are as described i dont have any dislikes about this

This purchase is surprisingly heart warming. In America we relentlessly get gouged and screwed in our purchases from candy to a house. This has got to be the best 8 dollars I've spent. Shipping was included. There are four discs to this Wonder Woman season two set. The picture quality is pristine and even better overall than I remember when I was a kid in the 80's. If you are contemplating purchasing dvd's from this seller you prob have a 99.1% chance of being satisfied. Troy

We love the action in it. This is such a classic video it was great. My little girls love it as much as I do. If you ever watched it when it came on tv it was awesome then and it is awesome now and this time you don't have to sit through the commercials. Great buy!!!!!!!

Wonder Woman in all her glory with her golden lasso and shiny bullet proof bracelets. She puts her spin and goes right to work for the side good. Never will there be another who could capture my heart the way Linda Carter did. Thank God i found her again. Thanx for all the memories.

I first saw Wonder Woman when the show premiered in 1978. I've been a huge fan ever since. Seeing the show again after so many years brings back wonderful memories! The first season,in my opinion,is the best of the three. The first season featured a upbeat(albeit cheesy)theme song,Wonder Woman doing battle against the Nazis,more Steve Trevor,and of course Wonder Girl. The second season is good too. My favorite episodes from the second series are "Mind Stealers From Outer Space" and "The Girl From Ilandia".
I bought season two from a reputable ebayer(oakrun06). Seller provided great communication and wonderful customer service. There was a delay in delivery thanks to USPS but the seller more than made up for it. I would highly recommend both Wonder Woman and this seller to all!!!!

It was a great transaction. I got exactly what I expected in good condition and timely. I would buy from this person again. I was happy to get it for my daughter, it was the season we were missing. Thanks so much!

Im not really a fan of the old Wounder Woman. I bought this for my mother because she loves the show.

I ordered this for my wife, who was only 4 or 5 when the show was originaly broadcast and made her a lifelong fan. Great production values, nice packaging, and plenty of dvd extras in addition to the episodes themselves. Season two marks the series changing time periods....season one was set in WWII, Season 2 & 3 where set in 1970's. Very retro. I didn't mind watching it with the wife due to the fact that Linda Carter was ( and still is) Smoking Hot! She and the show will never go outta style!

Very highly impressed with this transaction and with the seller. Seller was very abrupt in shipment of this item after its purchase and exceptional follow after shipment with me.

I love Wonderwoman and to have it on DVD is great, I can watch it anytime I want. I recommend this set it is fun.

I bought the dvd to complete a set. It was less expensive on ebay, and unavialbe in the store. With ebay I was guaranteed fast delivery with no problems. Ebay is the best way to shop. Thank you.

I bought the 1,3 form Target. They did not have the second season. So I bought.
I grew up watching Wonder woman. Saw it on dvd then wanted to buy it.

Well this was actually a gift for someone else but as memory serves this was a guilty pleasure when I was a lot younger. Linda Carter is notorious conservative but was shapely and beautiful so in her WW outfit, she was very watchable. Good price for a fun piece of tv nostalgia!!

great quality and price. fast shipping.sounds like feed back , i know. but i purchased this for my wife and she loves it.
