Electra Woman and Dyna Girl was a short-lived live-action television series produced by Sid and Marty Krofft. It first aired in 1976 and ran for only one season of sixteen episodes. The show starred Deidre Hall as Electra Woman, and Judy Strangis as her sidekick, Dyna Girl. Electra Woman and Dyna Girl was created by Joe Ruby and Ken Spears, who also created Scooby-Doo.

The show follows the adventures of two superheroines, Electra Woman and Dyna Girl, as they fight crime in their hometown of Capital City. The pair are reporters by day, working for the local newspaper, but at night they don their superhero costumes and become Electra Woman and Dyna Girl. They are equipped with a range of gadgets and a supercomputer called "Frank" who helps them solve crimes.

The show was aimed at children, with a colorful and campy style, and a focus on action and adventure. It was heavily influenced by the superhero shows of the time, such as Batman and Wonder Woman, but with a tongue-in-cheek approach. The visuals are colorful and eye-catching, with the duo flying around in their ElectraCar and using their electro-bracelets to zap villains.

One of the highlights of the show is the dynamic between Electra Woman and Dyna Girl. The characters are portrayed as best friends who work together to solve crimes, with an emphasis on the strength of their friendship. The two characters have different personalities, with Electra Woman being more serious and analytical, while Dyna Girl is more lighthearted and impulsive.

Another iconic aspect of the show is the supercomputer "Frank". Frank is a large, wall-mounted machine with a face on the screen, voiced by Norman Alden. Frank is essentially a crime-solving machine, and is often used by Electra Woman and Dyna Girl to help solve cases. He acts as a sort of sidekick to the duo, with a quirky personality and a penchant for bad puns.

The show also features a range of colorful villains, from traditional mobsters to more fantastical foes. The villains are often over-the-top, with outrageous costumes and personalities to match. The show features a range of practical effects, from fights and stunts to animated lightning bolts and laser beams.

Despite only lasting one season, Electra Woman and Dyna Girl has become a cult classic. The show has been referenced and parodied in popular culture, appearing in everything from The Simpsons to Robot Chicken. It has inspired a range of merchandise, from action figures to comic books.

In 2016, the show was adapted into a web series by Fullscreen, starring Grace Helbig and Hannah Hart as Electra Woman and Dyna Girl. The new series updates the concept for a modern audience, with a more adult-oriented tone and a satirical approach to the superhero genre. The new series has been praised for its humor and strong performances, with Helbig and Hart being particularly praised for their chemistry and comedic timing.

Overall, Electra Woman and Dyna Girl is a classic example of 1970s superhero television. It features colorful characters, quirky gadgets, and a sense of fun and adventure that has made it enduringly popular with fans. Despite its brief run, the show has made a lasting impact on popular culture and remains a beloved cult classic.
