U.S. Edition
It didn't take the golden lasso of truth to get Lynda Carter to share her thoughts on Adrianne Palicki being cast as the new Wonder Woman.
In an interview with the Baltimore Sun, Carter — who played the Amazing Amazon in the popular '70s TV series — sounds off about David E. Kelley's upcoming NBC reboot.
"I know she is going to be really nervous about it, just because you would be," Carter says of Palicki, adding, "I would never offer her any advice. Nor would she probably want any. If she wants to talk to me, that would be a whole different thing. But I would never offer, 'Now let me tell you how to do this.' She's an actress and she's a good actress and she's beautiful, and I hope she kicks butt."
Kelley's show will center on the superhero's alter-ego Diana Prince, who juggles being a crime fighter, corporate executive and modern woman.
"I spoke with David yesterday, and he's really, really excited about it," says Carter. "I think the story needs to be retold. It needs to have a fresh look at it. It affected a lot of people. I think it's time, I think it's important to have it out there again."
When asked whether she'll appear on the series, Carter deflected the question as if wearing Wonder Woman's impenetrable bracelets: "That is something that I … even if I were, I couldn't tell you."

Dang she is stll hot.
I heard Linda Carter was very rude in the Tonight Show and was never asked to return.
Lynda Carter = latina
Did anyone catch the sentence in this that said "it will center on the superheros alter ego Dianna Prince"? ummm....correct me if I am wrong but the show is called Wonder Woman...not Dianna Prince....the more details of this show that come out the more sure I am its going to be a real Hindenburg.
Agreed. The success of any comic transistion is to retain the original comic fans. Departing too far from the original idea will llose the producers say 30% watchers right off the bat. It will make it a teen age girl show. Although Linda Carter never quite got that stutter step coming out of the spin quite right, I watched the show and wasted a lot of Kleenex on her over my youth. She will ALWAYS be wonder woman to me LOL!
From what I've heard they are trying to turn Wonder Woman into a gritty night time vigilante a la Batman.
I give this show a season to self destruct, and I'm being optimistic. The Wonder Woman was never about gritty, she's more like Superman, a shining bright example of the best a hero can be. This reimagining goes so against the original material that I doubt people will buy it.
I totally agree with you Victor.
I hope you are wrong Vic but if what you said comes to pass you will be 100% correct. Dang still hot though
I know I like white girls, mostly because I get tired of the smell of funyuns and fried chicken oh your breath. After awhile yall begin to stank.
I still love Linda she is still cool and calm when i was 15 i was second runner up in the muscular distrofe collection drive i mist having a dinner date with her over $5.00 i was sad but hopefull someday i would get to meet her in person hope she and the new show will be great .
Wonder Woman/Linda would stomp the hell outa Coffee/Pam! Then Linda would smear Pams face in her pu-tang...which I understand Ms Grier would love. Another typical black community gaybyrd.
You black girls dont deserve any good men cuz of them ugly brillo pads ya have on ya head and between ya legs.
Will Lyndas B@@Bs make a cameo?
Ought to be interesting to see...Linda Carter was the best!
I'm super-excited about the new "Wonder Woman"! I have been a fan since the original series and will be an avid watcher of the new series...in my Wonder Woman underwear!!!
Old dried up white prune faces look plain silly to me.
Plus if they wanted a real wonder woman they would choose one of us sisters ! Pam Grier is the real wonder woman.
we dont steal the good black men, they want us because we hotter and not as angry
I hear you girlfriend. Them white girrls are always trying to pull some kind of stunt. Stealing our fine black broothers and music too.
You could always have their pasty white vampire boyfriends that they drool over like in Twilight. A fair exchange isn't it?
That big old giant white girl better not try kicking my buttt. I know judo and karate.
Lynda Carter looks great! I'd watch the show if she does appear on it. I may or may not watch it otherwise. I hoped for Megan Fox to be on it.
She's still got it.
