I don't think Morena bears a strong resemblance to Wonder Woman. She's got the colouring, but I'd rather see Gina in whiteface (okay, please don't, but I think that'd be closer to looking like WW than Morena even after the Jessica Biel program).
Wash: Mal, your dead army buddy's on the bridge! Zoe: He ain't dead. Wash: Oh.

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
blonde girlfriends make people nervous
Heh. Don't know if we make people nervous, but we do occassionally get second looks. Not often, though.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
He's so pretty.
So very pretty.
So true. So very true.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
What I really like about the way they've been drawing WW in recent years is they've given her a specific Greek ethnicity, right down to the turn in her nose.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Oh, that means it's Jennifer Garner, for sure!
(Don't THROW things at me!)

Who? moi??
Wonder Woman should have a dancer's body. Morena doesn't, Gina Torres does.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I really can't think of anybody that has Gina's combination of build, sheer prettiness, presence, proven action ability, acting chops and warmth. Also she's got good hair.
I'm wondering if they could just hang a lampshade on the divergence from expected race.

Unfortunately, we've now got CATWOMAN (and Halle) to thank for another reason they might fling out there for not casting color-blind. And there was more precedent in that case.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Oh, that means it's Jennifer Garner, for sure!
Only if they make her gain about 30 pounds.....
