re: #134 Whack-A-Mole

I think she would have pulled the role off fine but I think the concept for a Wonder Woman series would have failed.

IMO, WW suffers from the same problem as Superman: she’s too powerful. Unless you depart from the source material or limit their powers for some reason (ala Smallville, where Superman is just learning to use his powers), TV is just too small a medium for them. They need big-time, heavy hitter villains to create any real sense of tension and drama; your typical bad-guy-of-the-week isn’t going to cut it.

You know, Wonder Woman has been on TV before…
