A reimagining of the popular 1970s TV series about a female athlete who is given bionic strength. I was a fan of the ORIGINAL Bionic Woman and Six Million Dollar Man, but this series is severely lacking. The actress is nice enough but the character is way too naive. On top of that they have her performing bionic jumps and 40+ MPH run in MID to HIGH HEELS? Give me a break.<br/><br/>Come on folks - pay attention to the details!<br/><br/>This series needs drastic changes if they want a second season, character needs to get smarter, attention to details needs to happen - especially where bionic moves are occurring. She also needs a supporting character she can trust and depend on during her missions. The current organization she works for is apparently composed of spies and double spies as no one seems to trust one another. In any hostile environment, you need someone to watch your back - someone you trust 150% of the time. Don't get me started on her younger sister.<br/><br/>Unless things change - series will tank. I disagree with some of the comments made of The Bionic Woman. It's better then the original, which I enjoyed! The acting and the special effects were fantastic. I believed the people who criticized this show were watching something other then The Bionic Woman. Of course there's the old "how does it compare to the original" and all that crap. It surpasses the original. I hope it has a long run and Michelle Ryan becomes a household name and a big U.S. star Michelle Ryan is a great actress and carries the show! And having Katee sachoff as a possible recurring role doesn't hurt either. This show has potential and I predict will be a big hit. Matter of fact, it did rather well with over 14 million viewers. take that, you critics! role
