24 out of 25 - not bad for a guy who caught onto Wonder Woman in 1976, at the age of 13!

100% One of my favorite shows, but some questions were really not related.

That question about Lyle almost portraying Batman...The way it was phrased made it sound like he turned it down or was offered the WW role immediately after not getting the other role. Batman was a decade earlier. Yes it WAS technically 'before' WW but it was misleading.

Waggoner did a screen test for Batman. He was to serious in his test and the role was made perfect for Adam West being he did comedic roles before that.

Yarnell also was the body of Dot Matrix in Spaceballs (voiced by Joan Rivers)

Sadly, Yarnell died

18/25, never thought it was a good show, but Lynda Carter was really good. Now, time for me to spin around.

I got 22/25 and I'm surprised I got that many. I was a dull show for the most part. I'm not surprised that it was developed for television by Stanley Ralph Ross, who was one of the writers for the Batman series.
Geronimo TomTerrrific 70 months ago
Stanley Ralph Ross developed Wonder Woman for television. He was a director of the 1966 Batman TV show mainly for Catwoman episodes.

My point is that real fans of Batman tended to hate that show because it was a parody. Real fans of Wonder Woman tended to hate that show for pretty much the same reason. :)

15/25.Everybody is posting 28 questions when there were only 25.I almost did and i was going to correct cperryapples,then i realized Metv screwed up and gave everybodys tally with 28 instead of 25 questions and he was the only one to pick up on it.I'm surprised he didn't mention it.So everybody did better then they thought.

Not true

I was 16/28 but considering i guessed on a lot of the questions i think did okay.

21/25! Missed 8 [I will ALWAYS insist that there were 2 ABC seasons, the first one just wasn't weekly], 9, 14 [that dog is not BB Tiger, he was run over by a car] and 15 [Lagerfeld died today [RIP], so he was on my mind]! 1 is improperly written, it should read "What is Wonder Woman's name?"! Finally, yes I did see the Cathy Lee Crosby movie!

And do you remember who played the villain in that Cathy Lee Crosby version of Wonder Woman? A villain named Abner Smith with an accent that simply does not go with that name.
cperrynaples daDoctah 71 months ago
I don't remember that, I just thought WW isn't blonde and doesn't wear minidresses!
TomTerrrific daDoctah 71 months ago
Ricardo Montalban, wasn't it? I definitely liked the Cathy Lee Crosby movie better than the Lynda Carter series. She got to face off against Nubia, the black Wonder Woman, playing by (if my memory isn't playing tricks on me) the beautiful Jayne Kennedy.

17/28. On a roll for the first dozen questions, the rest were hit or miss ( lots of misses).

15 out of 28. I was sure that the little robot was named Ira. Beatrice Colen was also was Marcia on Happy Days. Tiger the Dog was also named Tiger on The Brady Bunch.
Beatrice was the angry roller-skating waitress at Arnold's. She was dropped when the show went 3 camera in the third season!
MrsPhilHarris cperrynaples 71 months ago
I loved her character on Happy Days.
Corey Lucyneenah19701 71 months ago
That was Tiger #2. The original Tiger died after the first season. Tiger #2 was uncontrollable and was dropped.
Geronimo Lucyneenah19701 70 months ago
The little robot was Ira. MeTV was wrong. I watched every episode.
TomTerrrific Geronimo 70 months ago
They called the computer (IRAC) Ira, but they called the robot Rover. Usually Rover was in the room with the computer, leading to confusion about which one they were talking to.
