[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 258642, member: 23"] It does make sense to me. [I] WHJ-P1 [/I]just feels like a [I]BW[/I] episode to me. The only reasoning I can think of behind it being a [I]SMDM[/I] episode would be for the "to be continued..." angle to ensure [I]SMDM[/I] viewers had an extra reason to watch the first episode of the new series. Oh, I can imagine this comparison followed Lindsay all the way through the series. I find the overlapping milestones quite fun to explore. Technically, the Bionic Woman was around (on [I]SMDM[/I]) before Lynda Carter's [I]Wonder Woman[/I] (if not Cathy Lee Crosby's version, which I think has even more similarities to [I]BW[/I]). Lynda had her own [I]WW[/I] film before Lindsay headlined a [I]BW[/I] episode. But then BW apparently got a full series order before WW. Then there were the network changes, with neither getting renewed by ABC after the 1976-77 season, and both then getting picked up by different networks. As I understand it, Lindsay and Lynda were and are good friends. And then, of course, there's now this.... [CENTER][img]https://blackwells.co.uk/jacket/l/9781524103729.jpg[/img][/CENTER] Oh interesting. Who was the feud said to be with? With Oscar appearing on both shows I had wondered how the scheduling worked. Likewise, I imagine the crossovers added some time pressure for Lee or Lindsay. [/QUOTE]
