THE BIONIC WOMAN

I’m looking forward to seeing the new Bionic Woman series starring British actress Michelle Ryan. I have fond memories of the original series starring Lindsay Wagner. I always thought the special effects were very good and it was a great show for it’s time. I used to enjoy watching Lee Majors as the Six Million Dollar Man too.

I’ve seen the trailers of the new Bionic Woman show and it looks like being every bit as good as the original series. It should be interesting hearing ex-Eastenders actress Michelle Ryan speaking with an American accent too. Apparently she worked with a voice coach in Vancouver to get the accent just right. The Bionic Woman made its U.S. debut with over 13 million viewers. I'm sure the eagerly awaited show will be just as popular over here. It will be shown over here in Britain on ITV2. Can't wait to see it!

I'm looking forward to the new version too - I've seen a few clips on a Bionic Woman website and Michelle Ryan's accent is excellent...

the show looks pretty good too, though unfortunately when I tried to watch an episode via NBC.com they wouldn't let a brit computer view the show!

I've been on the NBC site too Alastair. I've tried before and been unable to view things. I think it's because our connections are different in England. Either that or they don't want foreigners like you and I to view them!
