[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 386944, member: 23"] Looking back over my rewatch it seems it was [I]Pot Of Gold [/I](AKA [I]The One Where Diana Goes To London[/I]). I'd completely forgotten that. Good point. The way we watch series has changed in ways that couldn't have fully been anticipated back then, and these were designed to be watched once a week (or at a push, one episode per weekday for syndication). Less is more does seem to be a rule that can mitigate some of the fatigue (or boredom :D). Well, it is that time of year when it's almost obligatory to enjoy some gaudy, tacky nostalgia. Now you mention it, it does feature [U][I]every[/I][/U] version of the Main and End Titles across all three seasons. But it's so much more. [URL='https://lalalandrecords.com/wonder-woman-limited-edition-3-cd-set/'][B]Here's the album and its tracklist[/B][/URL][B].[/B] It's a 3-disc set featuring selected scores from the series, with the complete scores for some episodes (including [I]The New, Original Wonder Woman [/I]and[I] The Return Of Wonder Woman[/I]). How much you enjoy it will depend on whether or not you're a fan of film and TV scores in general and this series in particular. I like both, so this was a no-brainer for me. It has a nice variety of styles - from the military sound of early episodes to the disco of the later ones. The mastering is great (this is a favourite film score label of mine) and it also has a decent booklet with information on each featured episode and its score. This video gives an idea of the mastering quality (the remastered version kicks in at around 18 seconds).
