Bionic Woman

ABC's "V" is the latest in a string of attempts by networks to capitalize on past successes by  reinterpreting them in a new, updated version. Unfortunately, this ploy has resulted in many more failures than successes. For every "Battlestar Galactica" there are a dozen remakes in the netw...

By Graeme McMillan Variety report that Laeta Kalogridis - newly hot in Hollywood after completing the script for the upcoming Martin Scorcese movie Shutter Island, but better known to us as writer and executive producer for the Bionic Woman reboot of 2007 - will replace originally-announced writer Jami...

In a couple of weeks ABC Television will air its remake of the 80s sci-fi hit V. Audiences are all crossing their fingers and hoping that this remake is much better than the past couple of attempts by television studios (Knight Rider, Bionic Woman). Right now, all hopes of success are resting...

By Bionicast The first episode of Bionic Woman has hit the NBC airwaves and now everything can be deconstructed by us. Plus, a review of Chuck and Reaper and a bit of talk about Stargate season eight. Plus BW news and of the new Knight Rider series

By Bionicast In the run up to the premiere of the Bionic Woman pilot, we talk about the new Fall TV shows and what we'll be watching this season. Plus, a detailed review of new CBS show Moonlight and the usual mix of news.

By Graeme McMillan The declining success of Heroes (and outright failure of Bionic Woman and Knight Rider) isn't enough to deter NBC from pursuing the crimefighting genre; the network is now developing Midnighters, based on the Scott Westerfeld series of novels.

PASADENA -- Everything old is new again in television. Recent remakes have included "The Bionic Woman," "Dragnet," "Battlestar Galactica" and "Knight Rider." Now comes "Melrose Place."

By yeti9000 In his defense, Silverman was a well-regarded producer of such hit shows as “Ugly Betty”, “The Office”, and “30 Days” before taking the reigns at NBC, so, when the network brass hired him to lead NBC out of the crapper in 2007, he seemed like an inspired pick.

By Graeme McMillan Michelle Ryan may have survived the cancellation of Bionic Woman to star as the Doctor's new companion in the latest Doctor Who special, but she still misses those cyborg days according to a new interview. Talking to the British Guardian newspaper, Ryan has much fonder memories of the sho...

The TV show the Bionic Woman, (yes, a woman who was also enhanced), was another popular show along the same theme. While those shows made for good TV, today we have our own interesting developments in cybernetics. Thanks to RFID, radio frequency ...

Michelle Claire Ryan (b. April 22, 1984 Enfield, Middlesex, England) is an English actress, best known for her role as Zoe Slater in the BBC1 soap, EastEnders. Ryan expanded her audience, taking on the role of American cyborg, Jaime Sommers in the NBC series Bionic Woman.

By podcast@mail2tv.com (RikerDonegal) 11.00 That '70s Show 07.00 The Six Million Dollar Man And The Bionic Woman 09.00 If Tomorrow Comes In terms of characters I like the new Bionic Woman a lot. Had she been set up in a series of her own, I would have liked it. Kate is a nice person and she's delighted with her new bionics. There's none of that annoying angst we've seen in the past. It's fine at first, but by the time we got to whiny Michael Austin it had grown tiresome. Here, at last, is a well-adjusted person who instantly thinks that being bionic is fun and opens up a new world to her. Unlike Michael Austin (a character I really hated) she's not inept and manages - at the very end - to be the one to kill the baddie.   [read the full post]

By podcast@mail2tv.com (RikerDonegal) The heroes are ineffectual. Michael Austin is a newly created bionic man in this movie. He is far superior to Steve and Jaime. Yet he is easily captured and has to be rescued by a whole squad of his friends. Steve and Jaime, meanwhile, do absolutely nothing in the movie. They are targeted for kidnapping and spend the movie's few moments of actions reacting to attacks upon them. At the very end of the movie, the OSI - somehow - located the HQ of the baddies and tell Steve and Jaime where to go. They arrive with a whole squad of armed people and proceed to do very little that is useful. Jaime, at one stage, is about to be shot down in cold blood, but a no-name minor character saves her by shooting down her attacker.   [read the full post]

By MysterLynch Strangely, many guest roles are filled by actors on Battlestar Galactica, though not so strange when you realize that it's the same producer, David Eick. In fact in a few scenes I noticed sets used in Battlestar, including Starbuck's apartment.

By Casey Welcome to show number 25. Thanks for taking time to listen to us. Casey is sick as a targ, so Dan and I are taking over the controls for this very abbreviated episode of SciFi Surplus. SciFi Channel announced it’s new shows this week, and Bionic Woman is officially done. But [...]

By Roco Well, can they? You know it’s been said a million times by myself and many of you out there, but this show has SO much potential. What a shame that David Eick and NBC dropped the ball! Because ultimately that’s where the buck has to stop - not with Michelle Ryan, not with Isaiah Washington, not w...

I liked "Bionic Woman" for three episodes, but it quickly felt tedious and annoying (Whah! I have super powers). There was talk about how the series would be re-vamped after the strike once the new show runner stepped in, but looks like that won't be happening.

By Casey Topics: Billie Piper, Katee Sackhoff, James Marsters, Battlestar Galactica: Razor, Futurama, Chuck, Bionic Woman, and Journeyman. We are at show number eight and it’s a big one.

By Administrator There’s also the statement from Katee Sackhoff to consider. Sarah Corvus was a fixture of the first few episodes, and without a doubt, that guest character made Jaime Sommers look like a chump. More to the point, Sackhoff makes Michelle Ryan look like a rank amateur. The show has been sufferi...

By range Bionic Woman is a new series that is a re-imagining of the original series called The Bionic Woman from 1976-78 starring Lindsay Wagner. Katee Sackhoff is absent from this episode as well. It's too bad, I miss her in this show. Her character was nice and complex.

By Roco G4 TV have a rather funny Bionic Woman parody called “lesbionic” - check it out here. Ryan over at WBW.com has a recap of Nathan’s  (”The Tech Guy”) -  performance in last weeks episode. Nathan is fast becoming one of my favourite characters and I take my hat off to Kevin Rankin!

By monster7of9 Let me start by saying that in less the 3 minutes I am already pissed about this episode. Jamie is having margaritas with her friends. They are complaining to her not having a man in her life. What was really troublesome was the camera kept moving in cinema verte style which does not work here. Thi...

By Administrator This still leaves Becca as a character with generic attributes beyond “annoying little sister”, and Jonas continues to be a work in progress. His role in this episode is easier to reconcile, but the inconsistencies in earlier episodes, particularly his permissive nature with Jaime, ne...

By Berrio Productions I watched the pilot. It looks really cool. These bionics are much more elaborate than what we have seen in the past. This Bionic Woman (Michelle Ryan) does not run in show motion. The new Jaime Sommers is a college dropout working as a bartender and is her teen-age sister's (Lucy Hale) guardian. J...

By Eric “Pushing Daisies,” “Bionic Woman,” “Kitchen Nightmares,” “Heroes,” “Moonlight,” “Gossip Girl,” the other new shows and their respective networks are among our picks for the winners and losers of the first two weeks of the season.

By John And is Sara Corvis a villian or a really misguided bionic friend? Either way, Katee Sackhoff really grabs your attention when she’s on screen just like she did as Starbuck in BSG. Sara comes across as mysterious, dangerous, and sexy all at the same time. A very lethal combination indeed.

By Tempo In the first one, the "bad" bionic woman, Sarah Corvus (Katee Sackhoff), talks to Dr. Anthony Anthros (Mark Sheppard, who, like Sackhoff is also on "Battlestar Galactica") about how she's sick and needs his help to get better. The Education of Jaime Sommers" (Oct. 24)

Bionic Woman (series premiere): I thought it was pretty good. I love Katee Sackhoff, and she's definitely my favorite character. One thing that bugged me is why Jamie Sommers would be so angry about having bionic powers. I'd love to be able to run really fast, see/hear things far away and kick...

By Alan Sepinwall I made most of my complaints with "Bionic Woman" clear in the column -- Michelle Ryan's bland, the fight scenes aren't that impressive, etc. -- but I had a few other issues. First, while I've enjoyed Jason Smilovic's Mamet-lite dialogue on other shows like "Karen Sisco" and "Kidnapped," th...

By tvgal@seattlepi.com (Melanie McFarland) Ryan herself told critics that Brits are going nuts at the prospect of seeing it because hey, it's "The Bionic Woman." That makes her the inheritor to Lindsay Wagner's TV legacy. And you better believe Eick, a co-executive producer on "Battlestar Galactica," knows the value in co-opting a...
