One of Wonder Girl's many origin stories in the comics is that when Diana was younger, she was the only child on Paradise Island the Amazon sorceress Magala created a magical "twin" playmate for Diana. Unfortunately the villain Dark Angel abducted the twin as revenge on Queen Hippolyta and forced the Diana clone to live multiple hard lives where she would die young and then be resurrected. Each time she came back faster and stronger until she became Donna Troy, the Wonder Girl of the Teen Titans.
Ok, I must be a Nightmare on Elm St fan because the first thing I noticed about the opening credits was John Saxon is in this episode and someone named Kreuger.
Well, according to ancient Greek mythology, if an Amazon gave birth to a male child he was either sent back to his father(assuming that she knew who the father was) or he was left by the banks of a nearby river to be a foundling or to die of exposure.
Hahaha !!! Even at eight years old , I pondered that very question about Drusilla's sudden acquisition of a battle uniform. I often felt as if my intelligence was being insulted ..... hahaha !.....
1:16 Oh Hey its John Saxon, and not just any Saxon, it 1970's Mitchel, Enter the Dragon, Blazing Magnum Saxon! the best kind! and a Gloster Metor, one of the first operational allied jet fighters, sadly though it entered abit late by going into production in march of 44' and meanwhile our P80, our first operational jet fighter was abit rubbish, we actually had to borrow the jet tech from the british with that very jet just to get it off the ground, and it still crashed alot hell straight up both us and the russians STILL had to steal our designs and tech from the germans just to make a good one after that as well as we go their scientists, they got the blueprints of the same plane, a FW prototype jet fighter they had the plans to stashed in the luftwafe headquarters in berlin, IE the famous F86, and the Mig of that era, and they screwed it up by literally making one wing longer than the other. and all the while we stupidly let a good gotha 229 prototype lay outside and rot that would have probably kicked its ass had we had the guts to fly it and build more. also I guess the composer for the show was a fan of the temptations, as that's a few chords ripped from their song ball of confusion here at 10:50
15:24 A little blooper there, as the "deserted industrial area" of the 1940s has some very 1970s-looking freeway traffic (and a billboard?) in the background. :)
I think the show was trying to create their own Wonder Girl without calling her or understanding Wonder Girl. (And if you know anything about Donna Troy that's par for the course as the creator didn't even understand her, but that's a verrrrrry long and convoluted story.)
1:49 Copyright, I guess. I'm not the sharpest person when it comes to how copyright thing, or the cut-off into public domain territory after a composer's/artist's/creator's death, but maybe it was in its final year(s) before being in the public domain. That's possible. But don't quote me on that.
The sideburns and long-collared shirts don't match the 1940s elements. Limited budgets prevented wardrobe from getting sufficient incentive. Also, more money could have paid actors to agree to lose the sideburns.
First up, glad to see whatever was wrong got fixed. Carolyn Jones! Yay! Whale watching Nazis, almost as bad as Illinois Nazis. Using the variation of Also sprach Zarathustra just proves even TV executives don't want to cross the RIAA. Four different shades of green? I'd figure a snake would've turned her a whiter shade of pale... yeah, that joke's a bit of a reach. Keep up the good work, love your stuff!
@@dwashbur No, I missed that, but honestly, I am really bad at knowing how to get social media messages. If you want to tell me of another show you are doing, please email me at SHagins_17551@yahoo.com Thanks!

My 2 Favorite Episode's

I didnt...I tried the spin...and flew into my mothers china wear...imagine that!!
Why was Drusilla Prince wearing the Feminum bracelets while alone in Diana's apartment? And what good are they without the magic belt and lasso?

and meanwhile our P80, our first operational jet fighter was abit rubbish, we actually had to borrow the jet tech from the british with that very jet just to get it off the ground, and it still crashed alot
hell straight up both us and the russians STILL had to steal our designs and tech from the germans just to make a good one after that as well
as we go their scientists, they got the blueprints of the same plane, a FW prototype jet fighter they had the plans to stashed in the luftwafe headquarters in berlin, IE the famous F86, and the Mig of that era, and they screwed it up by literally making one wing longer than the other.
and all the while we stupidly let a good gotha 229 prototype lay outside and rot that would have probably kicked its ass had we had the guts to fly it and build more.

I love these videos but the constant interruptions drive me crazy. Lol But you do you Sir. God bless you. Go WW! 🙏

In the pilot the Queen told Diana that she couldn't risk her one and only daughter for the life of a savage. So now she suddenly has another daughter?
Hmmmm..... actress who is shooting the arrow at 5:34 is ALSO standing behind the Queen at 5:40.
Nobody realized how quick Amazons are!
because Drusilla is a member of the " Royal Family " and has an innate ability to do " Bullets and Bracelets ?
Unlike most Amazons ???
In the comics, The Amazons were to wear their Bracelets of Submission at ALL times.

That was a joke...
