- Cassandra is a scientist from the year 2155. Adam is her colleague. She has traveled back to 1978 so she can use her knowledge of the 20th century to amass a fortune for herself, something that isn't possible in her time. Adam has followed her, intent on stopping her. The big problem is, her plan involves the destruction of a major American city. Wonder Woman and Adam must team up to try and stop her. Joan van Ark guest stars.

I noticed Diana has a thing for men in silver jumpsuits😁
OMG it's Gary and Val Ewing of Knots Landing!!!!
Ted Shackleford, Lyle Waggoner, and Ron Ely: the three most handsome dudes to ever grace this show.
If they had set coordinates for Southfork Ranch, 1978, to see how people accumulate wealth in the 20th Century, it would have led to a great crossover! Wonder Woman could have gotten to the bottom of that "Who Shot J.R." business much faster (and a couple years later :D).
That guy in silver looks strangely like this one taxi driver in L.A.
Are you referring to the the episode in Season 2 called "Knockout"? The actor's name is Ted Shackelford. He played the taxi driver for Diana and I believe his son on the episode was autistic as well.
So does an entire city being half-destroyed equal half a city being entirely destroyed?
Nope, that was Jeannie Epper, Lynda's stuntwoman. She did all of Lynda's stunts except for motorcycles. I figure this was one of the series best scenes, the horse chase between Diana and Cassandra.
All but one stunt.
26:40 Her one-liner was better than the one I came up with... "Time to get rid of you and the horse you rode in on"
Ted Shackleford would also be suggested to Leonard Katzman by Joan when David Ackroyd couldn't resume his role of Gary Ewing . Another fun fact Adam's last name is Clement . Valenes maiden name is Clements.
25:11 Good thing she used the Danger Flares and not the Everything's OK Flares.
It is November the 11th, 2155.
Val and Gary get married for the 138th time.
And Diana Prince is reincarnated, along with Diana from "V" and Daisy Duke and the three of them now control the world from what is left of the White House!
When you say Daisy Duke, do you mean Cathy Bach or Jessica Simpson?
@@dwashbur Catherine Bach.
Good choice!
😆😆😆😅😅😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Loved the Sodom and Gomora joke. 😄
This is a great trope, future earthlings figuring out time travel and coming back to meddle.
I love how often Ira changes its monitor. From a generic lite Brite to getting 2 bulbs that change intensity as controlled by voice... then a new background to hide the fact it's a lite brite... then a diffuser screen over that... all in season 2. Looks like the diffuser hot misplaced so now it's a lite brite with white paper backing instead. Not to mention all the voice changes. Or background neon text on the wall discussing the current state of the mainframe.
The guy in the JiffyPop outfit is a classic example of the cliched trope of fish out of water and yet it all remains entertaining and I'm rooting for him. Of course, the name "Cassandra" is another cheesy noddish wink but, like "Dorian" from Blake's 7, it still doesn't not work... that, and Cassandra still has a few great one-liners too.
And, as with the computers from Blake's 7, the computers in WW have sarcastic personalities too. The late 70s were fun...
Diana and JiffyPop's dialogue in the middle is terrific. Great point about her not finding an ordinary boyfriend too.
Great use of video clips and quips (as usual!)
2007... in football time that might be 2047?
I bet more than Diana Prince "ess!" was "hi" at the time they made this show. 🤣
23:40 to 59 is a real "dun dun dunnnn" moment, but I love how he admits it wouldn't be any different.
Nice callback to Andros. Still can't believe the Skrill episode where they didn't remove all the references to him being the same person and not his son.
I forgot about the fad of tight blue jeans in this time period. The Calistro episode is another example of garish fads gone wild.
Stunt doubles were so obvious that it was great when Lynda did her own.
Joan Van Ark (sp?) definitely had some great moments in this episode.
Nice ending followup ideas for 2155. But nothing tops him recoiling in terror... 🤣
Actually, at 0:31, what you're looking at is ANOTHER piece of "Space: 1999" footage. I can't recall the exact name of the episode. But I do remember that what you're supposed to be seeing is one of the 'CITIES' that was put together in the wake of the EARTHQUAKES, that 'ravaged' the planet, when the 'breakaway' occurred.
What you're supposed to be seeing, is what EARTH was supposed to look like, some DECADES, after the 'moon' was blasted out of Earth's orbit.
(P.S. please excuse the 'redundancy' of this comment.)
Yes, it's from "Journey to where" episode number 5 from the Space:1999 second season.
7:58 "Adam... I'm madam." :D
It also sounds like they repurposed and reorchestrated a bit of Jerry Goldsmith's score to Planet of the Apes there.
This episode was 7 years and three months before Booster Gold’s DC debut.
This of course wouldn't be the last time that Joan Van Ark and Ted Shackelford would be teamed together. A year later they would play married couple Gary and Valene Ewing in the Dallas spinoff Knots Landing. Oddly enough, in this episode Ted Shackelford played Adam Clement and in Knots Landing, Valene's maiden name was Clements. To stretch out this useless bit of trivia, the actor playing Reynolds (Allan Miller) appeared in several episodes of both Knots Landing and Dallas. To stretch out this useless bit of trivia even further, William Devane who also appeared on Knots Landing as series regular Greg Sumner, appeared in a made for TV titled Timestalkers; whose plot is somewhat similar to this episode. A man from the future uses newly developed time travel technology to travel into the past in order to change the future to his advantage and is pursued by someone who worked on the project, played by Lauren Hutton. The costumes worn in the future scenes are similar to what the character Adam wears. As for Wonder Woman meeting Adam in the future. Wonder Woman comes to Adam to deliver Diana's letter. As Adam takes the letter, he says "Thank you... Diana." When Wonder Woman asks how he knows, he remembered that IRAC was about to tell him what he concluded about Diana Prince which made him curious. When he returned to the future he was able to find IRAC's memory files and learned that IRAC had concluded that Diana Prince was in fact Wonder Woman. When Diana questions why he didn't mention it in the letter he sent back to her, he explains that he couldn't be sure that someone else wouldn't read it and didn't want to jeopardize her secret. When she realizes that she can truly trust him, they begin to talk about their future together. She changes back to her current assumed identity and as they walk off together, Diana says "You know, we first met 177 years ago; this is the longest relationship I've ever been in."
William Petersen Chances are they had to do this episode as part of their contract with CBS
So the cast of Knotts Landing were time travelers from the year 2155!? 😅
That mining guy with the long hair?.... Fun fact that was lynsey wagners husband.
Very good review!! :)
Adam couldn't figure out Diana was WW?? He was just as oblivious from the 22nd century as Steve Trevor Jr. was in the 20th.
The domed city was also from Space 1999. Texas City
How about Diana Prince showing up in Knots Landing and breaks up his marriage with Val, when she shows him the letter he wrote.
Yes!!!! I love it! I think you have a winner there.
I'm surprised you didn't point out, or make a joke about Adam and Cassandra being Gary and Val Ewing from Dallas and Knots Landing.... Val's not mining oil, but another energy source instead....
I never watched either show so I didn't realize that.
@@dwashbur I just figured it be something you would of made a joke about...love your sense of humor, and your facial expressions Irv...missed opportunity for sure, lol...
The future has a past time view screen with a viewer with a special and PERSONAL interest in Diana so he'll see her transform the very next time she twirls so he'll already know and she'll have already reasoned that out so why would she write a note? Wisdom of Athena, remember?
Weren’t those two scientists on Knotts Landing?
This episode like, so many others, would've been more entertaining if WW would've had more involved fights with the female badies as she did in the show's pilot episode. Should've followed The Avengers/Emma Peel's lead.
Hi. This episode aired on TV a week before the Guyana tragedy (People's Temple) ...
7:14 Okay this is seriously screwing with my head, why is the composer doing a funked up rendition of Shifting Gears from the Movie Bullitt? as I keep expecting their to be a car chase between a Max Balchowsky Prepped Mustang, and a vintage triple black charger now
LA California
14:25 - Jumpsuit unzipped, sexy music playing in the background.........yup, I can GUESS what happens next!
Was this a spin-off off Knots Landing? Why are Joan Van Ark and Ted Shackelford I this show....how did they explain this when they went back on Knots Landing?
Only Lilimae knows for sure Sweet Pea!
Why did Luke and Laura do a guest bit in "Roseanne"? 😁
Adam is even more clueless than Trevor. One of the hottest women in the world is clearly DTF @14:55, so he starts babbling about "ramifications"? Can't even blame the leaping, since fellow time-traveler Cassandra knows exactly how to seduce an earthling.
Also disappointed WW doesn't spin into a horse-riding costume for the chase.
Police car has Chevrolet controls but is not a Chevrolet
They were having budget problems so they bought it from the chop shop down the street.
Whot the time...i m to...approssimative time...sister..
Did you leave or Batman catch you?
