| Nope, but I kinda wonder why they decided to revive this one instead of the 6 million dollar man, which was the more popular of the two series, as well as the original. Perhaps they are grabbing the female oriented series scripts where possible, to take advantage of the growing popularity of female characters leading the cast, but still you'd think then they'd take a totally new script rather than bringing back what was mediocre at best anyway. |

I think they should bring back Lindsay Wagner as the mentor for the new girl. She could be her trainer and conditioning coach, and if they tire and need a nap...they could take it in Lindsay's Sleep Number bed.

i think you're right. the team that put the show together is the same one that does battlestar galactica...."starbuck" is a character on this new bionic woman show as well.

| I honestly don't get what the big deal is with the new Battlestar Galactica series. I was looking for an new version for the new millenium, and instead what we got was something I found really different, and I found it impossible to get behind the charcaters for it. I tried hard beacause there had been so much good buzz about it, and I watched the first 8 episodes. Frankly, the original, with the hokey effects and all, was more fun to watch, and the characters were way better. |

Glad to see I wasn't the only one that felt this way. I expected "updates", but updating Starbuck from a guy to a gal was too much for me. Apollo, not liking his dad. I mean come on. I watched I think 12 or so trying to get behind it but no way. I guess if you had never seen the original ok, but I'm an old fogey, so couldn't get into it
