screenman This was an interesting concept. An astronaut almost killed in a crash is fitted with a host of bionic body parts like 'Robocop', but for the most part undetectable like the 'Terminator'. I'm not sure if the procedures were consensual.But, like the earlier 'Champions' he was gifted with tremendous abilities. He had prosthetic legs enabling him to run as fast as a horse. He had an optical implant that could telephoto zoom. And he had one very strong arm, enabling him to lift tremendous weights.The trouble is; the idea was good for a movie, or even a short series. But the same thing happened just about every week. We would see him running and leaping and lifting and seeing in slow-motion with that cheap, silly di-di-di-di sound effect. The whole thing become a standing joke before the first series had run its course.Lee majors himself seemed to get typecast by the role, and for such a handsome bloke and capable actor showed up in very few other features. A bit like that other bloke who turned into 'The Hulk'.I suppose the pressure to produce a programme each week rather stultified creativity. Whatever the case, it went on for far too long.Just 10 episodes and it would have been a classic - like 'The Prisoner'.
athansor007 No doubt this is one of my favorite shows of all time. Now my 6 and 9 year old have seen some of them, as well as several of the neighborhood boys, and they cannot get enough either. Now they play around with the "na na na na" bionic sounds and pretend like they are running fast or knocking each other down, in slow motion of course, all to save the government from some terrible demise. My kids were rooting for Jamie and Steve to get married, so I had to show them the "old Steve and Jamie" 1994 movie, which they really had a laugh about. That one is only for die-hards; you know how the reunion shows go.... The old shows are clean, solid drama with decent plots and enough humor to captivate any normal human being for an hour at a time. Steve is a real hero and the show really pulls you in....I wanted to be bionic, now my kids want to be bionic. They just don't make them like this anymore!
E. Adam Thomas (boritom) Okay, let's forget for a moment that the show degraded to cybernetic Sasquaches, Astral Projection and a Death Probe that looked like a cross between a Dalek and an SUV. The first three seasons of this series, and the pilot movie in particular were truly engaging and well written. Lee Majors, who had previously starred in The Big Valley and the movie Will Penny with Charleton Heston, got his big break in 1973 with a TV adaptation of Martin Caidin's ground-breaking novel, Cyborg. It was his first starring role, and as far as television was concerned, one of the most unique characters ever to grace the screen. Broken down to its most simple (bionic?) components, it was James Bond meets Frankenstein's Monster. The film did so well that ABC green-lighted a series of TV movies, that, in turn, garnered enough support to make a series. That's a monumental feat, considering that at that same time, Gene Roddenberry was enduring multiple failures with Questor (who, one might say. later evolved into commander Data), Earth II and a revival of Star Trek. Ironically, the series started off slow, with a minimal budget and a shifting schedule. By the time "Six Mil" found it's niche, the good writing was being rejected in favor of grabbing ratings by signing B-list guest starts like Sonny Bono and George Foreman. The rest... unfortunately, is TV In-Joke history... not too unlike Knight Rider and Quantum Leap. Let's hope Stargate SG1 and Angel fare better in the annals of TV History.
Brian Washington This pretty much was the highlight of my Sundays as I was growing up. The character of Steve Austin was one of the few superheroes that made it on television during the 1970's and within a couple of years of its debut similar shows were also premiering all over television. However, Steve Austin will always be the prototype for all television super-heroes.
