"Bionic Woman"
Posted by mrc on 09-27-07 at 07:34 AM
Started out strong. Michelle Ryan is super hot!

The end was a bit unbelievable, though. (She didn't ask about her boyfriend?!?) Also, regarding Will's dad getting out of prison--did I miss something about how that happened?

I'm giving this one a chance.

Me too. Watched it instead of Private Practice (DVR) since I knew hubby was interested. We'll stick with it. Lvoe me some Miguel Ferrar.

I've decided that I'm not going to overthink this show. Michelle Ryan is hot, and that's all that really matters. I also like Isaiah Washington as an actor, whatever he may be like as a person.

One comment: I was sorry to see that the people of Jericho had died so violently. That's a shame.

I don't like the Third Watch chick, though. She *so* doesn't fit her character.

Still patiently waiting to hear how the rest of her body is handling the stress from the bionics. (Think about it. Your artificial femurs are putting some horrific friction wear into your very human pelvis every time you accelerate.) Also not quite buying the 'I love you -- you tried to kill me, but I still love you' set piece, and unless it ends with everyone having played everyone else, there's some major mental illness on display there. On all sides.

As far as Will's dad getting out of prison, the guard with the hostage wife was probably involved somewhere. The rest would have cost money to show. Money that wouldn't have been spent on lighting.

Slightly annoyed about Will dying this quickly. I realize it's mostly to free Jamie to go after whoever her heart desires in that given episode, but coupling it to 'and he was the only one who actually understands how the bionics work' pushes it way too far into the plot point department. Anyone else think those constructs are going to have the reliability of, say, your average holodeck?

But is Michelle Ryan hot?

She's the hot one.

Since I have no idea what you currently consider to be 'hot', I still can't even begin to answer your question.

If your sigpic means you consider Jen hot, then I don't want to answer your question.

But it's such an ugly picture! Don't judge her for that one picture!

Yes, she's hot. The one-arm chin-ups were pretty impressive...nice abs too.

Does anyone feel this is a little like Alias. Cute, young, tough-a$$ girl in the world of big baddies?

eta: apparently another word for 'posterior' is bad language.

I thought the same thing--very Alias-like. Except Michelle is hotter.

Sigs by Bob about chalk dust. Pretty exciting stuff

You've just hit on why I'm feeling let down by this show after the second episode. It's Alias without the stuff I liked about Alias. Jaime and her sister just don't rank anywhere near Sydney and her dad in the dysfunctional category. And Alias was smart enough to give Sydney a hot handler, while we get stuck with Isaiah Washington - yes, he's not bad to look at, but he brings his Grey's baggage with him. While I'm a big Molly Price and Miguel Ferrar fan, neither of them have characters that I care even remotely about. Alias presented interesting supporting characters from the get-go. The only remotely intriguing character on this show is Sarah.

Yes, Michael Vartan is one of my five - can I make it any more obvious on this forum?

It's Alias without the stuff I liked about Alias.

And the mythology. That's what I always loved about Alias.

Haven't seen this show yet, but I keep hearing good stuff about it. Maybe next week.

Dang it - another show I sorta like.

Question: Anyone know that song being played while she makes her first jump from one building to another? It starts where she's bathing and staring at herself in the mirror.

If you are talking about the song in the first episode it was "Breathe Me" by Sia. Absolutely LOVE that song.

Excellent! I knew I heard that song from somewhere before. Anyways, THANKS!

Michelle is still hot. Her new boyfriend is a good addition. I actually think they need to get away from the Sarah (the other bionic woman) storyline and focus on developing Jamie Summers' character.

They can dump the Ruth character any day now. Worst.character.evah.

Let's take a moment and mourn the demise of this show. Hopefully, Michelle Ryan will reappear on another series that better shows her talents.

Has it been cancelled? Was hoping just delayed due to the writers strike!
