Man I remember the original series dont you? Now why not a remake of 'The Six Million Dollar Man'?

How about something new and fresh on the tube such as
"Stem Cell Woman"
Forget robots let's see biological! It's green, it's hip, savvy?

Umm...joking here

and are you referring to actually paying for something I can get for free? For shame!
Well that was moderately awful. The 're-imagining' of 'Bionic Woman' imho is nonsensical, laughable, cliche ridden and lacking in any kind of substance or feel. We know the lead actress (Michelle Ryan) from a long running soap over here and I feel sorry for her. I guess a decently paced double episode would have been better than cramming everything into the one solitary viewing.
Lost your legs, arm, eye and the sense of sound? No problem, have some prosthetics and get straight back to your life...no whining you hear? Previous profession? A barmaid is it not? You're the ideal candidate for this uber soldier thing we're larking about with...sigh.
If I'm to waste time watching tv originated downloads then I guess I'll stick to 'Lost' 'Heroes' and 'Tribe'.
You got that right Wendygirl

Second episode was cool.
I think this one will either grow on you, or not.
I wonder if it will make it to season 2?

It's awful. I endured five minutes of the second episode...simply paying homage to my childhood I guess.

They need to cut it and re do the hook. Then give the character some, well for lack of a better term, Character.

Actually most of the networks now days re-play the shows on their web sites after they were on tv for free.
Also i knew that blond chick looked familiar, we do not do battlestar galactica here. One of the only ones we dont watch, we thought it sucked big time. It was more like a soap opera, there was no action etc. it was all politics & such.
And yes the US gets a lot of good shows first etc. BUT we dont get Dr Who first!!!!! *Pouts* Or Robin Hood, Or Torchwood, also i would love to see the actual Brit versions hehehehe.
