CBS-TV has cancelled the series after a season of dwindling ratings,
placing star Lynda Carter on an all-too-human unemployment line. Wonder
Woman may have a brief network reprise next summer, however, when
several recent episodes may be repeated. After that she will Join the
likes of Star Trek, Logan's Run and The Man From Atlantis - syndicated
reruns which are shown at odd "catch-It-if-youcan" hours. |
As for Lynda, she will soon reappear on her own network special, singing
and dancing. "I'm going to keep one of the costumes in moth balls," says
the tall, stunningly beautiful incarnation of the first female comic
book hero. "I'll put it on again when I'm worried about my figure. The
costume shows exactly what's there; if you go two pounds over It starts
to show at the seams. When I'm a grand-mother, I'll take it out and show
the kids. For the time being, I guess, people in trouble will have to
call on some other hero or heroine for help." |
