It was just a few weeks ago that Adrianne Palicki was cast as Wonder Woman in the David E. Kelly/NBC television series. Today we are already getting our first look of her in the costume.
I am not sure if I like it or not. The costume seems to take influences from both the classical suit as well as the new suit currently seen in the comics. I personally think Wonder Woman looks better without the pants, and I am not too found of the shininess of the costume, but at the same time I have to say I don’t hate it…what are your thoughts?

How’s it goin’,Mary Lou?
I 1st found about this costume via twitter, & it would appear that popular opinion has it that this costume is exstremely disliked. While I’m not championing the look of it (I do think its flawed), I’m also not spewing the venom that I’ve heard or read about it either.
I think that the disdain most folks have 4 this uni is that it’s not the usual costume that most ppl have become accustomed 2. I can only imagine had the interwebs had been as commonplace in the 80′s as it is now, would their been as much mud slingling about the 1st Batman pic released. I can see it now; PERSON 1 “Hey Tommy! Look, they’re showing the 1st Batman pic! PERSON 2 “Cool, I gotta see………this……umm wait, that’s suppose 2 be Batman? Where’s the gray? Why does he have built-in muscles? How come I can see his eyes? Oh we tend 2 love our familiarity, don’t we?
Until it’s shown that…what sometimes works in comics, doen’t always translate 2 the big screen, or the small screen 4 that matter. Myself, I’m going 2 hold off judgement of this project ’til I actually see WW in action, & 2 the naysayers who dismiss not only the costume, but the presumed concept as well, I hope open minds will prevail, & that upon viewing…that’ll be the time 4 praise, or putdowns
4give me lack of brevvity here, but everything has been so lopsided in what I’ve been reading or hearing, I just wanted 2 provide a little bit of balance.
