The Six Million Dollar Man was an American TV show with SCI-FI elements, which ran between March 7th, 1973 and March 6th, 1978. It ran five seasons, multiple TV movies where created and of course it had a spin-off show called The Bionic Woman, played by Lindsey Wagner. She also was a recurring character on The Six Million Dollar Man. Three movies intended as pilots, aired in 1973. The TV show aired from 73 till 78 and Three television movies featuring both bionic characters were also produced from 1987 to 1994.

 

As a young kid, between 5 and 10 years old, I was a huge fan of this show, the sounds as he jumped were just amazing, certainly for a kid that age. I cannot imagine I have seen every episode but I watched it enough so I remember it fondly. I also had these dolls of Steve Austin (Lee Majors) and Jamie Summers (Lindsay Wagner). I never saw it again, also wanted to, but I never did! Since it has been released on Blu-ray in Germany a few years back, I've been tempted to buy it many times, even today I was contemplating it but I still haven't done it. In my country, as far as I know, it never came back in a rerun so I never was able to watch it again till the DVD era. I am not sure why I never purchased it to be honest.

 

Over the years there have been many rumors about a reboot or a movie but it never came to be. Of course we know that there was a reboot of The Bionic Woman in 2007 with Michelle Ryan as Jaime Sommers but unfortunately it was only one short season of 8 episodes.
