Sid & Marty Krofft‘s Electra Woman and Dyna Girl co-starred Deidre Hall as the titular superheroine, and Judy Strangis was her younger sidekick, a female Boy Wonder, if you will. The show was patterned after the Batman TV series from the late ’60s, and just like that show, it was a whole heck of a lot of fun.

She had actually guest-starred in a few other TV shows and even made a movie earlier than that.
