"In keeping with the 'real' themes, Ryan remarked that her character isn't exactly pleased with what is done to her at first."
-----------------------
Also in keeping with the "real" themes:
* She later finds out that her HMO won't cover the cost of the bionic limbs.
* When she goes to the bionic doctor for a follow-up visit, he talks to her for three minutes, fails to answer all her questions, and then gives her a prescription for antibiotics.
* The surface coating of her limbs scratches easily, and so she has to buy a silicone sleeve to cover it. Fortunately a cottage industry of bionic accessories has already emerged.
* People keep asking her "how it feels" to be bionic. This gets really annoying fast.
* A week after the operation, she needs to download a patch. - Irimi, on 10/11/2007, -2/+22this is going to be such a bad show.
- kenvsryu, on 10/11/2007, -1/+21I hope the soft parts are soft.
- gcnaddict, on 10/11/2007, -2/+21Those aren't defying gravity enough to look suspiciously modified. I'll call your bluff.
- Darph.Bobo, on 10/11/2007, -3/+21I'm not buying it, they look natural to me. Can you provide any evidence or proof?
- HunterTV, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9"...British import..."
WTF, she's not a shipping crate. - falstaff, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9@gncaddict:

BW was cancelled 5 years before IG started. And that was more than 15 years before the Broderick movie. - GilbertZ, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10Will Steve Austin exist in the series?
Whatever happened to Lee Majors? I really enjoyed watching him. - Scoresheet, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9I'm astonished that Zoe flippin Slater is now an American TV star....
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8Geeze, whats next, a remake of Mork And Mindy?
- Perleeeze, on 10/11/2007, -2/+9As a Brit who has witnessed Michelle's blossoming over several years in Eastenders, I can attest to the fact that they are entirely natural.
Very nice titties indeed. - loof, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8The Inspector Gadget movie was horrible. Nothing could ruin my childhood more than that talking car, not that the rest of the movie was much better but that car was just wrong.
- jggr, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7IMDB says he's in a new TV series.... With this plot...
"A guy with chronic back pain receives a "bionic" back surgery in a secret lab run by the Six-Million Dollar Man"
So, same old, same old. - Daiken, on 10/11/2007, -3/+9They don't look fake at all dude.
- wierdaaron, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6Young, attractive person with superhuman abilities.
This will either be another Heroes (extremely unlikely) or it will be like every show on The WB: terrible. - RedStateRetard, on 10/11/2007, -16/+21I see she had two artificial parts put in before taking the bionic woman role.

Or, as she was known by me and a friend "that girl that always wears the same coat." I swear, her characters wardrobe seemed to consist of a pair of jeans and that coat for about three years. - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5There was an Adam 12 series in 1990. And Car 54 in 1993.
- Daiken, on 10/11/2007, -0/+51 super powered person is not equivalent to the array of people on Heroes. I'm thinking this is gonna be more like Alias.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4The only positive aspect of this show is it's not on Fox.
I'll give even money it's canceled before mid-season. - anescient, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6HOPE YOU'RE READY FOR MORE CRAP
- wierdaaron, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6Alias was a product of good writing, and when the writing wasn't good there was at least Jennifer Garner hotness to hold the show together.
The writer of this new Bionic Woman show has previously written that godawful viking movie Pathfinder (eghh..) and the Oliver Stone "Alexander" movie (double eghh...) and, before that, wrote that Birds of Prey show that was on WB (abort! abort!).
And this chick, while attractive, isn't very "hot". Her beauty is a bit pedestrian. - dvrchatter, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3Manish. Broader shoulders than Lee Majors.
- PopcornDave, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Wow, what's next? A remake of Car 54 Where are you? Or was that Adam-12?
- FlyingFredCurry, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3But I'm still not over Lindsay Wagner; BBW (Beautiful Bionic Woman) version 1.0
- timmayk, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3is that katee in those photos? looks like her...
- tehnico, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Katee is supposed to be A/THE villain of the series. Hawt brunette + Tomboy lovers wet dream = best show evar.
- DanCMH, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I like the fact that they kept the character's name... Call me old fashioned.
Steve will come on in a sweeps episode sometime in season two or three. - reptile, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1More here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/showbiz/showbiznews.html?in_article_id=454123&in_page_id=1773
- Modulo, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1If she does not have a tramp stamp with a "intel inside" logo incorporated into it then I'm afraid that I cannot give this show my support. Also she must show this tattoo. Frequently. Possibly while washing a car in a tube top and cutoff jean shorts.
- remlap, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Ive actually seen the video trailer to this, but without sound, do not ask how :)
If you do not believe me fine.
But Starbuck vs Zoe Slater = HOT. - meatmcguffin, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2Bloody hell, I was going to post that as a joke!
According to wikipedia, she also auditioned for the part of Vesper Lynd in Casino Royale. WTF!? - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+3she's hot! (or atleast used to be)
- ChumpChief, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1She is the fullmetal alchemist!
- orlyfactor, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Na-nu Na-nu
- T3H4815162342, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2For the doubters out there, Michelle can be very hot when she 'puts her mind too it' (gets a bit done up).

Directory: http://scans.sicknote.org.uk/pictures/michelle_ryan/ - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Some teenage boy is going to fall in love with her, the way I did with Lindsay Wagner decades ago. Hell, Lindsay is still pretty hot.
- whahaa, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1I SEE STARBUCK. /fanboi
- knodi, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2Shes do-able.
- beachian, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2How do I get one of these?
- KamikazeeDriver, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2"with show pics and behind-the-scenes look at the upcoming TV series and its sexy star Michelle Ryan."
damn. sorry, but not enough to whack to. trying google next - tzon, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2Me neither. My heart still swells when I see her in those mattress commercials.
- remlap, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1Yes you do see Katee Sackhoff, from the video trailer they have a fight scene, in the rain if I remember right, in the very first episode, since I believe only the pilot has been made, no green light for more.
Dont hold me to it being in the rain mind.
Its hot very hot. - AlexBryan, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0YOU AIN'T MY MUVVAAA!!!
- Farrendahl, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Lets face it, many are going to scream "Where's LW" but the truth remains that show is near on thirty years ago and for everybody who fell in love with the original there is going to be another person who will fall in Love with this new show and to right I say.
It deserves to succeed if for no other reason but to fill the gap in the demographic that was left by the loss of Alias. All I do hope for is that this doesn't turn into Jake 2.0 with a woman because face it, that was crud on a whole new level. Plus Michelle Ryan deserves better than that. - FlyingFredCurry, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1...you want a bionic Bridget Jones?
- chaos7, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1ROBOCOP
- Urusai, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1"If you were you and just you, talk to you, maybe,
But I can't stand no bionic lady
Trying hard to look fly, but yo you're looking dumber,
If I wanted someone like that, I would have swung with Jaime Sommers." - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1She is actually a 'reasonable' actress, but I must admit, she is the only female in Eastenders I wanted to...you know....bone.
