But the concept is horrible.  I don't have high hopes for this show.

All live action superhero TV shows have been horrible. The Flash and Batman (1960s vintage with Adam West) were ok, but only because tongues were firmly planted in cheeks for the entire run.

Yeah this show is gonna suck, there were some screen tests floating around the interweb and the basic premise of the scene is Wonder Woman worrying about the size of her chest  , now for an Amazon warrior this seems really out of place and stupid. I guess you cant be a female character on TV unless you are insecure.

I dont want live action, I want the DCAU to continue....Gave me new Justice League series!!!!

There is an animated Wonder Woman movie.  DC has been putting out a lot of animated movies lately.

Seems too young for my liking.  I'll bet anything she says in a remotely angry fashion will sound more like a whiny petulant valley-brat than the hard determination of say, Sigourney, or Susan Eisenberg.  They all do, these days.  Dang kids get off my lawn.

Edit: In fact, just like the girl playing Diana in this.

No nearly buxom enough to play Wonder Woman. I grew up in the Linda Carter era...

Quoted for truth.  There will always be only one live-action WW:






Goddess, thy name is Linda.

The first season of Heroes was great.

The 4400 grew into an excellent show, well worth tracking down (and sitting through a somewhat uneven first season.)

The Cape has been pretty entertaining, stays very true to its pulp roots.

Sorry, but I found nothing redeemable about the first seasons of Heroes or The 4400. If it takes longer than a whole freaking season for a programme to get interesting, it's a waste of my time.

I thought Smallville was entertaining. It certainly lasted quite a while.
