Wonder Woman (TV series)/Trivia

• Doing It for the Art: Carter sometimes did her own stunts because it allowed better closeups of the action. In one memorable scene she hung from the bottom of a helicopter as it took off; she later stated that the producers were... less than pleased when they found out.
• Hey, It's That Guy!: Debra Winger as Wonder Girl.
• Keep Circulating the Tapes: The first TV pilot movie, starring Cathy Lee Crosby and Ricardo Montalban (as the bad guy), is mostly forgotten today. It was once released on VHS, but is now only available on bootleg DVDs.
• What Could Have Been: Wonder Woman's swimming costume was originally a bikini, but the one that was designed had trouble staying on in the water (oh, to see some test footage of that...), so they redid it as a full-body outfit.
  • Debra Winger was supposed to appear in more episodes, and there was even talk of a Wonder Girl spinoff, but she wanted to focus on more dramatic work.
