Wonder Woman: The Complete Series [Blu-ray]

I've been waiting for this to come out on Blu-ray for some time. I'm glad they finally did it.I was pretty young when this show was first released. I remember it being on and liked it just because she was a superhero. Now that I'm older, I appreciate it for other reasons.For one, Wonder Woman is important not only for being one of the earliest female superheroes (not the very first as some believe), but in that she's completely original and not a feminized version of an established Male hero (unlike Batwoman, Supergirl, Spider-woman, She-Hulk, Captain Marvel, etc.). While she had a junior version of her in Wonder Girl, she never had an opposite sex counterpart. That makes her really stand out among all other female superheroes.This show is also important for what Lynda Carter brought to the role. She really owned the part and nobody could replace her for decades. Not many can pull off her combination of beauty, charm and strength.The show itself is fine. A little dated, but not too hokey or campy (well, maybe a little in later seasons when Wonder Woman switched to those odd costumes like the swim wear and skating outfit). Production was good standard for the time.Blu-ray itself is really good. High quality picture and sound. Almost a little too good as sometimes you can see that Lynda Carter's natural hair clashes a bit with the jet black hair extensions. That can be overlooked.One small complaint with the package: While there is a booklet listing the episodes, they're grouped by season and not by disc. The discs aren't labeled other than by season, so the only way to know which episode is on which disc is to actually play the disc and look up the menu. If you're looking for a specific episode, it may take some trial and error.Aside from that, it's a good package and worth having if you're a fan of Wonder Woman, superheroes, 70's TV or all of the above.

An entertaining blast from the past that looks great on blu-ray!

The newly released Blu-Ray set of the Wonder Woman television series is a definite improvement over the first DVD releases. The second releases on DVD (the single-sided discs), were absolutely horrible with barely VHS image quality. All of the special features from the DVD's have been ported over for the Blu-Rays. All episodes are in their original aspect ratio and have been newly remastered. Virtually all of the film scratches and other anomalies are gone now and the picture is sharper than before. The episode intros with the theme songs are slightly softer than the actual episode footage, as these segments were most heavily cleaned up, as well as any of the stock footage scenes that were used within the episodes. The audio is on par with the original DVD releases and remains your basic Dolby Digital audio. And, they finally fixed the audio sync problems on season 3, where the sound effect did not match up with the star coming out of the tiara in the opening credits. This release is definitely a solid upgrade to the DVD's and belongs in your Wonder Woman collection !!!!!

The show: I love the classics, from comic book heroes and heroins such as Wonder Woman, to the more serious shows such as Perry Mason, they just don't make em like this any more.The discs: I've never seen this show so vibrant and colorful, this blu ray edition does not disappoint and I am very pleased with it.The packaging: It is okay but some of the discs are really hard to pop out of its nesting place so I have to be careful not to break any.My one main complaint: Like others have said, there is a list of episodes but they are not separated into different discs locations, so you just have to guess, in my opinion this is sloppy packaging but I would like to help in that...I have uploaded a png image, I made a PDF of the series list but I could not upload it, but you can still print out the picture if you like. Hopefully you can download the image in a high enough resolution to print, hope this is helpful.Update: I've noticed that you can't really save the image I uploaded, so I am adding to this comment in text form.Wonder Woman - The Complete SeriesSeason OneDisc One1.

I was really young back then and at that time there're were no strong female characters to look up to. Wonder Woman came out slightly before The Bionic Woman. I was 5 or 6 at the time and this series had a big impression on me. It showed be women can be anything. I loved the series, but disliked the movie. Shows like this made women feel empowered. Look at what we have accomplished in reality, It"s Awesome.
