Diana Prince: Wonder Woman Appreciation 2021

[Gaius]

Just sounds like they werent interested in WW in general but the idea of WW. The fact that they have to say "Is she Linda Carter? George Perez version" but dont have to go "Is Batman Adam West?". By the time of JL, George Perez gave them a pretty definitive version of the character that they wanted to do. She was young, naive, fresh off the island but probably to multi-faceted for them.

That the most long lasting thing people remember about DCAU Wondy is her crush on Bruce or that it took to near the end of four seasons to make the lasso do the thing it's iconic for speaks volumes.

Fwiw, his comments on Superman are equally aggravating (and I say this as someone who likes DCAU Supes in his own show).
