It's Official, Only Lynda Carter likes the New Wonder Woman Costume

Lord! The geek world was rocked by the Naomi Malone version of the Wonder Woman costume. The views were overwhelmingly negative. However, the original WW Lynda Carter liked it:

"What's not to like! Adrianne [Palicki] looks gorgeous and I'm really looking forward to seeing David E. Kelley's new series."

Gorgeous? Hardly, I mean Adrianne is very pretty, but that costume is not cute. And I'm not alone in this feeling. In a LA Times poll, the majority of the folks hated this 'fit. On other geek blogs, the jokes and puns ran wild. Here's a few:

This could be much worse. Sure, the costume is a little too shiny, the colors are a bit too bright and poor Adrienne Palicki is gonna sweat to death in all that latex.

Looks like Diana Prince has a brand new pair of shiny blue pleather pants. Oh dear.

David E. Kelley‘s new TV series is evidently going for the ‘Sexy Wonder Woman’ Halloween look. See the full image after the break.


Getting the costume right is one of the difficult factors in putting Wonder Woman on the screen. How do you make the costume look both revealing and eye-catching and simply right? This version doesn’t manage that at all. How much talcum powder does this thing require to get on and off?

I hope NBC is looking at this, because I feel we have another 'Birds of Prey' on our hands!
