When the classic comic book character Wonder Woman made her first appearance on TV in 1974, viewers were presented with a very different version of the Amazonian princess than the one that would be made famous by Lynda Carter just a year or so later. In that first television movie, Wonder Woman was a blonde, and her costume was, well, let’s just say, quite different from what comic book fans were accustomed to — thought her name was still Diana Prince and she still fought crime. If my memory serves me correctly, it was the first time I had ever watched anything with Cathy Lee Crosby in it.
