The original Wonder Woman, Lynda Carter, has seen the newly released photo of Adrianne Palicki in costume as the revamped superhero for David E. Kelley's upcoming TV remake.And Carter loves what she sees. The actress and singer, 59, tells E!, "I think she looks fabulous....It's a new look and, jeez, her body looks fantastic."
She added, "You know, I'm very sensitive to the fact that she will be compared....There's no getting around it. It is what it is. I would hope that people would cut her some slack."
Fox News has criticized the va-va-voom makeover as striving for a more globalized look, stripped of the stars-and-stripes patriotism that Carter's (equally campy) 1970's costume represented to many.
But is Carter worried that Palicki will make comics fans forget her own indelible Diana Prince? "I'm sure there will be people who say she looks better than me, and like her better than me -- and that's also fine," Carter said. "I want this story to be told again. I'm really excited. I can't wait to see it."

Linda Carter was the best so far..The costume not so great, the new actress's hips aren't wide enough to show power and Wonder Woman came to America from the Amazonian country so put the stars back..they are removing everything American and Godly from our country at least let us have some stars somewhere..

I would like to know what is wrong with "stars and stripes"? Why is she acceptable because of her "global" look. If others in countries other than the United States Of America can have their heroes or heroines capitalize their cultural pride WHY SHOULDN'T WE? Being a Proud American is not a dirty phrase. Except with many (not all) in politics, the media and Hollywood.

The costume is horrible! it's too shiny.. looks like a holloween custome from WalMart... Has anyone check out Jenny Gomez (find her in YouTube)... Jenny Gomez is the perfect WW....

Pls, I want Jenny Gomez to be the next WW... Check her out.. Jenny Gomez.. she's a Dominican hot hot hostess.

WOW... Please people, really.... Lynda Carter, YES HOT. We get it. Even at almost 60, super hot. No one is disagreeing. But seriously, she's almost 60, she cannot be WW anymore.
This chick, while not MY personal idea of hot, may or may not suit the role, I am reserving judgement until the show airs.
The new costume? Eh... I kinda like the pants and boots, but the shiny shiny plastic look is odd to me. Tone it down. Pants can be sexy, as its the figure and attitude that will vamp it up. But the shiny is pretty bad. No bones about that.
Those of you seriously freaking out over this? Get a life. Quickly. I'm frightened for you otherwise.
OK, my two cents have been thrown into the mix.
I wish the show much success. I personally love the character and hope the show kicks butt!

Lynda Carter was and always will be WW.. She had the looks, moves and outfit.. The new WW looks like a hooker in an outfit two sizes to small.. I guess this is suppose to be a modern day WW?....

The New Wonder Woman looks plastic and phoney. You can tell she's had a boob job by the unnatural sag under her arm pits. Lynda much more natural and prettier

I believe no one can replace the original WW ako Lynda Carter. You are the best Lynda.

There is so many level this character hits. I wish we could stop the politics and lets this be a show. If it does the work, then leave it at that.
