Great Series!
It is about time that they put this series onto dvd. It is well deserving that it is now finally available. I used to look forward to this series to air each week on one of my local tv channels btween 1993 and 1994 when it first aired. It is typical that a fun and clean family show like this went off the air so quickly. Some people claimed that series did not do so well in the ratings but that simply was not true. The series was very expensive to film. It was on location filming that was done in British Columbia. The weather was often very cold and stormy. There was also a lot of commuting back and forth for Lynda Carter. She flew home each weekend after weekly filming. Lynda has always been more concerned about her family than acting. So between the expense of catering to the cast and on location filming and harsh weather the producer wished to end the series by the following spring. Luckily, this is one series that produced a last episode that closed everything up. Everything was sewn up wonderfully and satisfying for the viewer who had seen the whole series. It was like when the Fugitive finally caught the "one arm bandit". I absolutely loved this show. I loved its production values and the entire cast. Even all the villians did a great job with their roles. I loved to hate Taylor Shields and I looked up to Hawkeye and marveled at the lady that Lynda Carter portrayed of which she really did not have to act. She was really playing her own self. She is most definately a lady and a lady to be admired not just in beauty but in grace.
My only gripe with the dvd's are the fact that they made a nice case but the dvd's are inside paper sleeves. There are also no bonus materials on this. It is like they just rushed them through. I am happy though that they finally released this series. It is exciting and crisp and a clean adventure series for the whole family.
