Michelle Ryan set to be the new Bionic Woman
When I first saw this, I thought to myself, Bionic Woman, what about the Six Million Dollar Man? For those of you who are not aware, the Six Million Dollar Man was a wildly successful tv series back in the 70s. I was a huge fan when I was a kid. The Bionic Woman was a spinoff from that show, and only lasted two years.
As I read through the article what they have basically done is bring back the Six Million Dollar Man, but make him a woman. The Six Million Dollar Man was a secret agent of the OSI and was a bit of the 70s version of Alias. He had two bionic legs one bionic arm and a bionic eye. The Bionic Woman, from the 70s, had the same, except the bionic eye was a bionic ear.
“In these new shots from the pilot of the show, Ryan can be seen waking up with her new legs after the accident that put her in hospital. She also receives a bionic eye and a bionic arm.”
“In stills from the show Ryan can be seen leaping from tall buildings, and engaging in martial arts style fighting in the driving rain”
So what is wrong now days with a male action star? I mean do not get me wrong I very much enjoy hot woman kicking butt. I can think of several off the top of my head: Jennifer Garner in Alias, Milla Jovovich in Resident Evil movies, etc. But to turn the Six Million Dollar Man into a woman, come on — that is just wrong!
However, everything being said, I probably will watch it. Maybe they will give her a red jumpsuit and have her run in slow motion with sound effects at least once for the Six Million Dollar Man faithful. One can dream…
