WONDER WOMAN
TNT, 7:00 p.m. ET
Three years ago, actress Gal Gadot and director Patty Jenkins upended the movie industry by teaming for a powerful new tentpole franchise in the superhero genre, with the tremendous success of the inspirational female-empowerment 2017 film Wonder Woman. Later this week, on Christmas Day, the long-awaited sequel finally is released, and you can watch it on TV, exclusively on HBO Max. Meanwhile, today, you can watch the original Wonder Woman movie, and on a much less exclusive basis. It’s being shown tonight on TNT, but also on TBS, and even on the Cartoon Network – which makes sense both from a corporate synergy perspective and from the character’s comic-book origins.
