Long before the 2017 Wonder Woman film smashed box offices, back in 1975, nobody was sure if viewers would tune in to see a female superhero. The production team of the original series, including Lynda Carter, who played Wonder Woman, expected a backlash. But audiences loved Wonder Woman, and despite the initial hesitation, the series ran for three successful seasons. It is lauded for bringing a female superhero to the screen, and paved the way for future incarnations of Wonder Woman.
