[QUOTE="Spells & Karma, post: 388469, member: 23"] This is a fair point. [I]WW[/I] was pretty much episodic. The period change between the first and second seasons would be the key piece of continuity which required an in-canon explanation, but there were also a number of tweaks to the format which I suppose today may be called "soft reboots" today. The most notable of these were the mid-S2 changes when Bruce Lansbury took over and shook up the cast and format, and in one of the final episodes where Diana moved cities and Lyle Waggoner was dropped altogether. Despite the lack of serialisation I've always felt that the series gently evolved as it went along, probably best embodied by Diana Prince becoming increasingly glamorous until by series' end she was practically Lynda Carter (and certainly didn't look very well disguised considering Prince was the alter-ego). I'd be curious to see if this kind of evolution is more noticeable if watched out of sequence, and if there touches in late Season Three that would have been very out of place or out of character in early Season Two.
