Donna Noble, played by Catherine Tate, is one of the most popular Doctor Who characters ever. Fans loved her no-nonsense attitude and her forceful personality. And she had a fascinating relationship with the Doctor. They loved each other very much, but unlike with other Doctor Who companions, it was strictly platonic. They were more like brother and sister.

Something terrible happened to Donna at the end of season four, and not long after that, the show rebooted with a new Doctor, as it does every few years or so, and Donna was seemingly forgotten. But then she made a triumphant return in a series of specials in 2023, and that increased her popularity even more.

The 1975 TV series "Wonder Woman" is deeply beloved by dutiful Gen-Xers who watched it as children. The show's combination of silly action, funky music, and campy humor hit a sweet spot, presenting the title heroine as bold, strong, and capable, but also upbeat, happy, and capable of whimsy. Also, because lead actress Lynda Carter is so dazzling, many Gen-Xers may confess to having a crush on Wonder Woman at some point. The series was a hit, lasting 59 episodes over three seasons. Along with 1952's "The Adventures of Superman," 1966's "Batman," and 1978's "The Incredible Hulk," "Wonder Woman" was, for many decades, one of the most celebrated superhero TV shows ever made. 

"Wonder Woman" began its life as a 1974 pilot starring Cathy Lee Crosby, as a reimagined version of the character. That pilot didn't fly, but ABC was eager to do something successful with the character and launched a second pilot...
