Just wondering who remembers watching Bionic Woman (Lindsay Wagner) and Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter) Which show did you prefer ? I liked Bionic Woman better then and still like it and watch on the Retro Station.

Watched both as kid though not always. METV has Wonder Woman on Saturday evening caught one episode a while back not so exciting but Lynda Carter still made me 'feel' younger again

Loved it. I liked females that could stand up for themselves. I also loved Zena with the cool leather and sword.

Not so sure I like the look of the new Wonder Woman.

Bionic woman was a weak ripoff from 6MM man. WW was better but a weak story. LC had nice features though.

I enjoyed the Bionic Woman, but then it was because she was braless quite a bit.

I watch Wonder Woman on MeTV. I love it!
The cheezy special effects and simple story lines take me back to a much happier time.
It's hard for me to think that that stuff was 40 YEARS AGO!!!

I think those XENA and Hercules shows were some of the best of my lifetime. I am waiting impatiently and hoping someone will pick them up for syndication.

I loved them both but more so Bionic Woman because I was pretty young and already thought Steve Austin was the coolest person ever. Jaime Summers HAD to be just as cool because afterall, she was bionic too!

Remember them?

I have both series on DVD!

As it is, I prefer The Bionic Woman more. I guess I just have more of a connection to that character, what between it being more modern through out, her living in the country, the intelligence business and the variety of it, and Max.

For one thing, the lines in the script seemed to have been better, more realistic. For example, the villain (think it was James B. Sikking) in "Which one's Jamie?" talking about why they haven't moved on the mark yet.

"Jamie Sommers lives in a ranch house with a very big dog. I just don't want to give her home field advantage."

I've had the Wonder Woman DVDs for years; don't think I've gotten around to them yet, but I do watch The Bionic Woman frequently.

I watched both and loved both! I was a child back then but I guess it was good to see powerful women on TV!
