1	1	"Wonder Woman Meets Baroness von Gunther"	Barry Crane	Margaret Armen	April 21, 1976 (1976-04-21)
The Baroness Paula von Gunther (Christine Belford), an imprisoned Nazi spy, and her crew are framing Steve Trevor, the War Hero, for several incidents of sabotage to make him appear as a traitor, in an attempt to lower the Allies' morale. Trevor suspects the Baroness may be behind his framing. The prison warden's son Tommy, an avid fan of detective fiction, assists Wonder Woman. Having discovered the Baroness' hideout, Wonder Woman is surprised by the Baroness. She sprays Wonder Woman in the face with knock-out gas and Wonder Woman faints. Later, Wonder Woman recovers and after she and Steve Trevor have a fight against the Baroness and her crew, the Baroness is brought to justice. Also guest stars Ed Gilbert, Ed Griffith, Christian Juttner, and Bradford Dillman. Notes: This episode is based on the comic book story, "Wonder Woman Versus the Prison Spy Ring" originally published sans title in Wonder Woman #1, cover date Summer 1942. Written by William Moulton Marston and illustrated by H. G. Peter, the story was given a title in Wonder Woman Archives Volume 1 published in 1998.
2	2	"Fausta, the Nazi Wonder Woman"	Barry Crane	Bruce Shelley & David Ketchum	April 28, 1976 (1976-04-28)
Fausta Grables (Lynda Day George) lures Wonder Woman into a trap. Wonder Woman falls through a false floor where one of Fausta's gang overpowers her with chloroform causing Wonder Woman to faint. The unconscious Wonder Woman is then kidnapped and taken to Germany for study. Steve launches a mission to rescue her but is captured himself shortly after Wonder Woman orchestrates her own escape. Wonder Woman returns to Germany to rescue Steve and convince Fausta to abandon the Nazi cause. Also guest stars Bo Brundin, Colby Chester, Jeff Cooper, Keene Curtis, Bill Fletcher and Christopher George. Notes: Fausta Grables first appeared in Comic Cavalcade #2 Spring 1943 issue in a story entitled "Wanted by Hitler, Dead or Alive".[2] This episode marks the re-introduction of the red-white-and-blue, star-spangled cape that Wonder Woman adopts throughout the series for formal occasions; it and the miniskirt had been seen when issued to her by Queen Hippolyta in the pilot movie. This is also the only time Wonder Woman wears a mask which is golden.
3	3	"Beauty on Parade"	Richard Kinon	Ron Friedman	October 13, 1976 (1976-10-13)
Diana enters a beauty contest to expose a sabotage ring of radar scanning equipment, which is led by the pageant's musical director (Bobby Van). Also guest stars Anne Francis, Dick Van Patten and William Lanteau. Note: This episode introduces the famous "thunderbolt" sound and transformation sequence.
4	4	"The Feminum Mystique: Part 1"	Herb Wallerstein	S : Barbara Avedon & Barbara Corday T : Jimmy Sangster	November 5, 1976 (1976-11-05)
The United States Army is about to unveil its first jet fighter the XPJ-1 and the Nazis are determined to steal the plane and study it to build a jet fighter of their own. Meanwhile, Diana's younger sister Drusilla (Debra Winger) arrives from Paradise Island for a visit and gets caught up in the Nazis' plot. Kriegsmarine Captain Radl (John Saxon) also wants to find out the source of feminum, the metal used to make Wonder Woman's bracelets. He kidnaps General Blankenship, who is taking Drusilla for a drive in Washington. Drusilla discovers that she can spin into costume like her sister and turns into Wonder Girl. Wonder Girl tries to rescue the General but Captain Radl chloroforms her. Also guest stars Carolyn Jones, Charles Frank, Paul Shenar and Kurt Kreuger. Notes: This was one of Debra Winger's first acting roles. This was the only episode in the entire series that shows Wonder Woman changing back into Diana Prince, although the camera was on Drusilla's reaction rather than the transformation. Queen Hippolyta is never referred to by name.
5	5	"The Feminum Mystique: Part 2"	Herb Wallerstein	S : Barbara Avedon & Barbara Corday T : Jimmy Sangster	November 10, 1976 (1976-11-10)
Peter Knight, an engineer secretly working for the Nazis, gains Drusilla's trust and tricks her into revealing the location of Paradise Island. The Kriegsmarine U-boat's crew stage an invasion and force the Amazons to mine feminum ore. Queen Hippolyta commissions Princess Diana [dressed in her Wonder Woman regalia, but addressed by her proper name and royal title] to command the Amazons' militia. Wonder Girl escapes and, as Drusilla, exposes Peter as a Nazi spy. Learning Diana has returned home, Wonder Girl also returns home to Paradise Island whereupon the two princesses engineer the capture of all of the invading Germans; the Amazons' memory-wiping technology deletes the sailors' knowledge of the island's existence before they are set adrift. Wonder Woman and Wonder Girl then return to America to prevent the theft of the XPJ-1 jet.
6	6	"Wonder Woman vs. Gargantua!"	Charles R. Rondeau	David Ketchum & Tony DiMarco	December 17, 1976 (1976-12-17)
Erica Belgard (Gretchen Corbett), an animal behaviour specialist and Nazi agent, abducts a super-strong gorilla named Gargantua from his African jungle home in order to recapture a defecting Nazi agent (John Hillerman) who is in American custody. Erica decides to use the gorilla's strength to defeat and capture Wonder Woman. Also guest stars Robert Loggia and Tom Reese. Notes: Wonder Woman's similarly-named adversary, Giganta, was originally a super-evolved gorilla, in Wonder Woman #9 (Summer 1944). The map of Africa used at the beginning of the episode showed the "Republic of the Congo", which was not established until 1960, 18 years after the events are supposed to have taken place; in 1942, the area shown was called the Belgian Congo, later renamed the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
7	7	"The Pluto File"	Herb Wallerstein	Herbert Bermann	December 24, 1976 (1976-12-24)
Irish terrorist "The Falcon" (Robert Reed) steals a formula designed to produce man-made earthquakes in order to level Washington, DC. Wonder Woman and the formula's inventor must work together to stop him. The Falcon is also carrying the bubonic plague and must be quarantined. Also guest stars Hayden Rorke and Albert Stratton. Note: Kenneth Tigar makes an appearance.
8	8	"Last of the $2 Bills"	Stuart Margolin	Paul Dubov & Gwen Bagni	January 7, 1977 (1977-01-07)
Diana and Steve investigate a Nazi plot to flood the American economy with counterfeit $2 bills in order to destabilize the American war effort. The Nazis hatch a long-range plot taking several months to implement, as plastic surgery and vocal training is used to transform two Nazi agents into the Bureau of Engraving and Printing chief (David Cryer) and his fiancée (Barbara Anderson) a waitress and restaurant owner. Also guest stars James Olson and John Howard. Notes: Within the series' universe, production of the $2 ceased in 1942, Major Trevor handing YN1 Prince the final note to be filed; in the real world, production continued until halted in 1966-1976. Fans of Batman immediately recognized the prominently featured façade of the BEP (Building 61 on the Warner Brothers backlot's Embassy Courtyard), having not been re-dressed since its use as Gotham City Police headquarters.
9	9	"Judgment from Outer Space: Part 1"	Alan Crosland, Jr.	Stephen Kandel	January 14, 1977 (1977-01-14)
An alien named Andros (Tim O'Connor) arrives on Earth to study it and to convince the intergalactic council that the planet should not be destroyed because of World War II. The American government first suspects Andros of being a Nazi spy and the Nazis want to use Andros's powers for world domination. Wonder Woman and Andros must work together to prove America's intentions are peaceful as he at first is not sure if either side is right (mentioning the internment of "Americans of Japanese descent" in reply to Wonder Woman's charges against the Nazi racial policies). While Andros is exploring the Library of Congress he is stripped of his powers and captured by the Nazis, Wonder Woman tries to save him, but passes out after being hit by gas. The intergalactic council decrees that if Andros is killed the Earth will be destroyed. Also guest stars Kurt Kasznar, Janet MacLachlan and Scott Hylands. Note: Arch Johnson and Vic Perrin make an appearance.

After seeing that she is prepared to sacrifice her life to save him, and when Steve Trevor demonstrates that the Allied cause is just, the aliens relent on their threat to destroy the planet. Andros invites Wonder Woman to accompany him in space, but she replies that she is needed on Earth. Andros promises to return to see her in 50 years (in 1992). Also guest stars Christopher Cary. Note: Andros' son, also called Andros, is later revealed to have visited the following year, 1943, before returning in 1977.
11	11	"Formula 407"	Herb Wallerstein	Elroy Schwartz	January 21, 1977 (1977-01-21)
Diana and Steve head to Argentina to pick up a formula from a scientist (Nehemiah Persoff). The formula can make rubber tires as strong as steel. The Nazis want to steal the formula to use it on their truck tires. A Nazi agent (John Devlin) who is secretly involved with the scientist's assistant (Marisa Pavan) directs his henchmen to kidnap both the scientist's daughter (to obtain the formula) and Steve (to take him back to Germany for interrogation). Diana, witnessing the abduction, spins into costume and tries to intervene, only to be chloroformed by the Nazis. She awakens tied up in a room with Steve. Wonder Woman and Steve break free to find the girl before the agent takes the formula back to Germany.

Also guest stars Henry Darrow and Lance Kerwin. Notes: Kristoff St. John and James Coleman make an appearance. Wonder Woman adopts a modest new outfit for this episode only: a long-sleeved red shirt and white calf-length trousers; retaining her boots, magic belt, golden lasso, tiara, and feminum bracelets. Hadley addresses BG Blankenship as "Phil", the same forename as his comic book counterpart, General Phil Darnell. The Flag of Texas is flown upside down at the ranch.
13	13	"Wonder Woman in Hollywood"	Bruce Bilson	Jimmy Sangster	February 16, 1977 (1977-02-16)

14	1	"The Return of Wonder Woman"	Alan Crosland, Jr.	Stephen Kandel	September 16, 1977 (1977-09-16)
More than 30 years after her adventures during World War II, Princess Diana resumes the mantle of Wonder Woman when a plane carrying Steve Trevor Jr. (son of her former associate) lands on Paradise Island. Wonder Woman and Steve must prevent a terrorist from stealing a nuclear power plant and destabilizing all of Latin America. Guest stars Jessica Walter, Fritz Weaver and Bettye Ackerman. Notes: This episode was 90 minutes in its original form but is usually edited to 60 minutes for syndication. The series moved from ABC to CBS and is now set in the 1970s where Steve Jr. and Diana are government agents at the hi-tech Inter-Agency Defense Command (IADC). Academy Award winner Beatrice Straight guest stars as Diana's mother, the Queen. This episode also introduces the character of Joe Atkinson (Norman Burton); like Wonder Woman / Diana, Atkinson had worked special operations during the Second World War but is not implied to have encountered her (nor Steve Sr.) in those earlier days.
15	2	"Anschluss '77"	Alan Crosland, Jr.	Dallas L. Barnes	September 23, 1977 (1977-09-23)

He has developed telekinetic powers and uses them to try to exact revenge on Wonder Woman. Also guest stars Lew Ayres. Notes: James Hong makes an appearance. This is the only episode after the first season for which WWII-period scenes were filmed. In the WWII scenes, Wonder Woman is wearing her gold bracelets instead of her silver bracelets from season one.
17	4	"The Bermuda Triangle Crisis"	Seymour Robbie	Calvin Clements, Jr.	October 7, 1977 (1977-10-07)
Wonder Woman must decide between conflicting loyalties. If she does her duty as Diana Prince, she will put Paradise Island in danger of becoming a nuclear testing site. Guest stars Charles Cioffi and Beatrice Straight. Notes: The submarine footage used is of the USOS Seaview from Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. Wonder Woman displays the tiara's communications capability for the first time, communicating with Paradise Island via the star ruby and a mirror (similar to the mental radio of the comics); this capability was referred to by her mother, Queen Hippolyta, when re-issuing the costume to Princess Diana in the season première. She also spins up an alternate costume, a long blue wetsuit including a hood with a tiara design, for the first time in this episode. This is the first episode with no direct references to events of World War II except for Steve Trevor Sr.'s plane crash. This is also the final appearance of Queen Hyppolyta in the series.
18	5	"Knockout"	Seymour Robbie	Mark Rodgers	October 14, 1977 (1977-10-14)
Steve gets abducted on his vacation to Los Angeles. After Diana frees him, they discover a vast terrorist plot against world leaders. Guest stars Jayne Kennedy, Burr DeBenning and Arch Johnson. Notes: Frank Marth and Ted Shackelford also guest star. Arch Johnson makes another guest appearance.

20	7	"The Queen and the Thief"	Jack Arnold	Bruce Shelly	October 28, 1977 (1977-10-28)
Diana goes undercover at the Malakan embassy to protect the crown jewels from a notorious international jewel thief (David Hedison). The loss of the jewels would spell the end of the reign of the Queen (Juliet Mills) of Malakar. In a twist, the thief is not behind the theft of the jewels. Ambassador Orrick (John Colicos), consulate to the royal family, is actually behind the theft, intending to have the thief steal fakes in order to force the queen to abdicate.
21	8	"I Do, I Do"	Herb Wallerstein	Richard Carr	November 11, 1977 (1977-11-11)
Diana goes undercover with agent Christian Harrison (John Getz) as a married couple at a spa to investigate leaks of classified information. She discovers that an evil masseur (Henry Darrow) is using his skills to hypnotize the wives of government officials into revealing secrets. Also guest stars Academy Award winner Celeste Holm and Simon Scott. Notes: This episode marks two major changes in the appearance of Wonder Woman's alter ego, Diana Prince: the first time she removes her glasses in public and the first time she lets down her hair — in a ponytail. Henry Darrow makes another guest appearance.
22	9	"The Man Who Made Volcanoes"	Alan Crosland, Jr.	S : Wilton Denmark T : Brian McKay and Dan Ullman	November 18, 1977 (1977-11-18)
Diana races against teams of Soviet and Chinese agents to stop Arthur Chapman (Roddy McDowall), an evil scientist who has the ability to cause volcanoes to erupt. Also guest stars Roger Davis, Irene Tsu and Richard Narita. Notes: Another re-launch. With this episode, Bruce Lansbury becomes Supervising Producer. The animated opening credits are replaced with a more traditional montage of clips from the series; at the beginning of the episode, Steve Trevor is promoted to a desk job, becoming Diana's supervisor at the IADC, as a result of which his role gradually diminishes throughout the remainder of the series. This episode is the final appearance of Norman Burton as Joe Atkinson - his distinctive voice is then heard for several episodes as the voice of IRAC, before being replaced in "Diana's Disappearing Act".
23	10	"Mind Stealers from Outer Space: Part 1"	Michael Caffey	Stephen Kandel	December 2, 1977 (1977-12-02)
An alien race called the Skrill come to Earth to steal the minds of humans to be sold into slavery. Andros (Dack Rambo), son of the alien visitor from the 1940s, arrives with orders to capture the Skrill. If he fails, his people will use insanity-inducement procedures upon the Earth to prevent their escape. The Skrill find out Diana Prince is also Wonder Woman. They attack Diana and weaken her until she faints. Andros then saves her. Also guest stars Kristen Larkin and Vincent Van Patten, whose father Dick had appeared in a season one episode. Notes: Anne Ramsey makes another appearance. Earl Boen also appears.
24	11	"Mind Stealers from Outer Space: Part 2"	Alan Crosland, Jr.	Stephen Kandel	December 9, 1977 (1977-12-09)
Wonder Woman and Andros continue to battle the Skrill, who are even more dangerous now that they have deduced Wonder Woman's secret identity and have captured Andros' mind. Notes: IRAC likewise first implies its knowledge of Diana's alternate identity, saying as she departs, "Good night, Miss Prince ... ess". Wonder Woman delivers some opening narration which appears to have been rather hastily written, and which "reveals" that this Andros had worked with her in 1943, the year after his father had done so in "Judgement From Outer Space"; like his father, he had invited her to travel the stars with him. The way the episode was written, however, makes it clear that this is in fact meant to be the same Andros. At one point, he implies that the elder Steve Trevor had not yet been promoted at that time, mistakenly addressing the identical Steve Jr. as "Major".
25	12	"The Deadly Toys"	Dick Moder	S : Carey Wilber T : Anne Collins	December 30, 1977 (1977-12-30)
An android double of Wonder Woman is built by a toymaker (Frank Gorshin). When she investigates, Diana is injected by a toy butterfly and faints. Later she awakes, then transforms into Wonder Woman, however she is confronted by the android and is knocked unconscious. Also guest stars John Rubinstein and James A. Watson Jr. Notes: Despite her pagan beliefs, but in accordance with Lynda Carter's Christian faith, Wonder Woman scrawls a public, "Merry Christmas -- W.W." in spray paint or fake snow on a toy store window. IRAC all but admits its knowledge of Diana's secret identity to an oblivious Steve Trevor.
26	13	"Light-fingered Lady"	Alan Crosland, Jr.	Bruce Shelly	January 6, 1978 (1978-01-06)
Diana Prince goes undercover as a burglar to infiltrate a burglary ring. Guest stars Christopher Stone, Joseph R. Sicari, Bubba Smith, Gary Crosby, Titos Vandis and Greg Morris. Notes: Wonder Woman appears to display another new power, telepathic communication with animals, when she convinces the guard dogs to trip the alarms. Wonder Woman's wetsuit makes its second appearance.
27	14	"Screaming Javelin"	Michael Caffey	Brian McKay	January 20, 1978 (1978-01-20)
Ruler (Henry Gibson) of a micronation is kidnapping top athletes and then forces them to compete for his country at the Olympic Games. Also guest stars Robert Sampson, Melanie Chartoff, Rick Springfield and E. J. Peaker. Notes: IRAC hints to Diana that it is aware of her dual identity. This is Norman Burton's final episode as the voice of IRAC. Wonder Woman demonstrates skill on the uneven bars. Henry Gibson makes another appearance.
28	15	"Diana's Disappearing Act"	Michael Caffey	S.S. Schweitzer	February 3, 1978 (1978-02-03)
Wonder Woman goes after a magician (Dick Gautier) who has discovered a way to turn lead into gold. Also guest stars Ed Begley, Jr., J. A. Preston, Allen Williams, Aharon Ipalé and Brenda Benet.

Steve Trevor Jr. has a WWII-era picture of his identical father, Diana's former boss, on the window sill behind his desk.
29	16	"Death in Disguise"	Alan Crosland	Tom Sawyer	February 10, 1978 (1978-02-10)

Wonder Woman takes on a man named Bernard Havitol (Ross Martin) who is looking to acquire the memories of the best computers in the world and is looking at IRAC for his next addition. Also guest stars Lee Paul and W.T. Zacha. Note: First appearance of Rover. IRAC witnesses Diana Prince changing into Wonder Woman.
31	18	"Flight to Oblivion"	Alan Crosland, Jr.	Patrick Mathews	March 3, 1978 (1978-03-03)
Diana poses as a photographer to protect an Air Force test flight from sabotage. Guest Stars Michael Shannon, Corinne Camacho, Alan Fudge, Mitch Vogel and John van Dreelen. Note: Diana appears in uniform for the first time since season 1, albeit posing as an Air Force staff sergeant, one grade lower than her assumed Naval rate of YN1 more than 30 years earlier; among the ribbons that she wears on her disguise is the Air Force's version of Good Conduct Medal, the Naval version of which she legitimately earned during the war.
32	19	"Seance of Terror"	Dick Moder	Bruce Shelly	March 10, 1978 (1978-03-10)

Also guest stars John Fujioka, Adam Ageli, Jan Ivan Dorin and Hanna Hertelendy. Notes: IRAC and Rover confirm to each other and the audience that they know Diana is Wonder Woman; when Diana's access is suspended, IRAC nevertheless provides her the information she requests (albeit with a wink and a nod; e.g., "I am not authorized to tell Diana Prince that [the requested data]"), and notes to Rover after her departure that no one pulled Wonder Woman's clearance.
33	20	"The Man Who Wouldn't Tell"	Alan Crosland, Jr.	Anne Collins	March 31, 1978 (1978-03-31)

When Wonder Woman finds the gang, she is gassed and faints, being taken prisoner. Guest stars James Luisi, Mark Withers, Warren Stevens, Steve Inwood, Lucille Benson and Hal England. Notes: Wonder Woman spins up another alternate costume, a motocross outfit. It is largely the same as her wetsuit, with the addition of a gold star-spangled crash helmet and large black goggles.
