Gee, there’s been an awful lot of news about cancelled television shows this week, hasn’t there?

So you know what? Let’s give those cancelled televisions something to do with themselves. In fact, let’s get them drunk. Because boy, won’t that be hilarious? More »

Girl Crushable: Princess Wonder Woman

I’m cheating on today’s Girl Crushable, but I don’t care because I have to put this video up. Here’s the scenario: Little Daria got invited to a birthday party where the boys get to dress up as superheroes but the girls can only be princesses. Enter her incredibly smart (and obviously geeky) father Jay C. Batzner, who sews her a Wonder Woman costume. That’s Princess Diana of Themiscyra, always wriggling through birthday party loopholes.

Video: Leaked ‘Wonder Woman’ Pilot Footage Proves This Show Would Have Sucked

Er, after seeing this merely 36-second clip, we’re not at all surprised that NBC’s Wonder Woman never made it to air. This is like a parody of a bad B flick from the 80s. “Okay, she made it past the gate.” Hey The Peacock: we’re totally available to punch-up your dialogue if you need us. More »

Snap This: ‘The Runaways’ Starring Wonder Woman as Joan Jett

Artist Cliff Chiang doodled this little tidbit after watching The Runaways. I don’t know if I can speak for anyone else, but I’d much rather watch Wonder Woman play Joan Jett than Kristen Stewart. Backing up her and her Guitar of Truth are Black Canary as Cherie Currie (Dakota Fanning in the movie), Zatanna as a bassist (The Mary Sue points out that there are six possibilities for who she could be), and Batgirl as Sandy West (Stella Maeve). Anyone got any theories about what song they might be playing (besides “Bad Reputation”)? Tell us in the comments! More »

Snap This: Who Wears Short Shorts? Wonder Woman Wears Short Shorts!

True, Wonder Woman didn’t get picked up for NBC’s fall lineup; but that’s not stopping her from staying in the public eye. Remember that whole to-do about her costume? Remember how later they said that there were three costumes: The one with the shiny pants, the one with the blue pants with stars, and one with shorts? Here’s the one with shorts. And, um… do those “shorts” look like underwear to anyone else? Maybe Wonder Woman should go hang out with Lady Gaga. They can exchange underwear-as-outerwear pointers. More »

Wonder Woman Needs A Drink(ing Game)

Poor Wonder Woman can’t get a break: First they give her a stupid new costume and Victoria Beckham breasts; then it turns out that she didn’t even need it anyway. NBC has reportedly passed on David E. Kelley’s reboot, which was to star former Friday Night Lights actress Adrianne Palicki. This probably surprises no one, but as silly as the new show looked like it was going to be, I can’t help but feel that Wonder Woman has been sadly maligned throughout the years. I think she could use a drink, don’t you? More »
