[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 437673, member: 23"] Absolutely. We believed it because she believed it. Even watching as a young child, that kind of truth comes across. True. I'm not sure, though, if the [I]WW[/I] series didn't suffer - at least a little - by increasingly tailoring it to Lynda Carter as it went along. The increasingly glamorous wardrobe is attractive to watch, but by the end it reached the point was very little delineation between her two alter egos. Likewise, an episode centred around her singing talents never felt like anything more than a fifty minute promo for Lynda's album. And it's been hinted that some of the numerous revamps and soft reboots to the series came about - at least in part - because of Lynda's desires (the key example being Lyle Waggoner's infamous "The spotlight is not willing to be shared" comment as he left the series after being increasingly sidelined). Yes. No matter who was behind the numerous changes (and I'm sure Lynda was only one of many involved in these choices) at least her continued presence brought balance and much-needed familiarity.
