Just got round to watching episode 1& 2 of the bionic woman…Casting snivelling Zoe Slater from Eastenders has turned me off it for life…may as well have cast her fat slapper sister Kat. And why make it so freakin dark..the attraction of the original series (apart from Lindsay Wagner) was it's smaltz. Popping tennis balls good. Military martial arts combat 5 mins after she got bionicified bad.
Casting the Crossing Jordan guy was also a bad move as was giving him dialog like "we're a private clandestine group dedicated to stopping rogue organisations from ending civilisation as we know it." IMDB shows him as only being in 4 out of 14 episodes so perhaps they came to their senses and canned him. I see it has dropped below extreme makover in the ratings in the states….here's hoping that'll be the wake up call that sees them send Michelle Ryan back to the Queen Vic in Albert Square.
