Even Haters Will Approve!

Rating: 1/10 (18 November 2017)

Sometimes our memory of a favorite show from our youth is better than watching the product now. Such was the case with the Superfriends kiddie 's show. I got off too Wonder Woman as a kid, but that was back in the Lynda Carter days. I liked it mainly because it was the first series that offered such a variety of heroes and villains. Watching it now though really exposed it's weaknesses. I realize it's a rehash of a 90s cartoon, but the lack of logic is unreal. For an extreme example of this, observe the episode involving the aliens from Venus. All DC follow the same simple formula. It opens with the baddies plotting a scheme. A combination of their members devise a plan. By the end of the show, the villains are caught, but always have a cheesy way to escape. On a positive note, Wonder Womans "Dark Knight" look comes off as XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS rehash. For me though, after the second of four episodes on the DVD, I watched the rest at double speed to save time and didn't miss a thing. The Legion of Doom bios in the extras are kinda neat but forget the stupid game option.
