Bionic Woman is probably done; Ryan is “defeated and depressed”
In the least surprising news I’ve seen all week, the British tabloid Daily Mail is reporting that NBC’s Bionic Woman will be canceled, “barring a last-minute miracle.” The Mail’s “source” tells the tab that star Michelle Ryan has returned to England “because the writing was on the wall,” and is “d…
Things don’t look good for Bionic Woman
We’ve been talking about NBC’s Bionic Woman every week that season. How the show “has potential” and is “entertaining,” while at the same date I think we can all agree it’s really disappointing, has been all by the place, and has a lead that has the personality of the flashlight that is currentl…
Bionic Woman: Do Not Disturb
Jaime: “Antonio used to say ‘a briefcase is never really a briefcase.’ ”
Jonas: “Yeah, well, Antonio’s dead.”

“I bet you haven’t seen a film made before 1983.” - Tom, to Jaime
Does anyone else think that Jaime is sort of dumb? I mean, she’s hot and can fight and seems to be an OK spy-type person, but there doesn’t seem to be anything else going on up there. whether she wasn’t a spy, she’d be back at the…
Bionic Woman: The Education of Jaime Sommers
”How’s your British accent?” - Jonas, to Jaime
So I’m curious: did they have Michelle Ryan use her real British accent in that episode as a funny, insider-ish sort of joke, or did she just get tired that week and not want to fake an American accent? Regardless, it brings up the question, wh…
Bionic Woman: Faceoff
”I’m just a simple boob man.” - Nathan
I think after that episode, we’re all simple boob men.
This was the “let’s position Katee Sackhoff on a table and construct her wear a tank top and have wires wrapped around her chest to highlight her breasts as much as possible” episode. Not that I…

(S01E02)”God you’re a douche.” - Jaime, to Jonas
Last week I mentioned that Bionic Woman had a lot of Alias in it, and the opening scenes of that moment episode solidifies that viewpoint a little bit more, with Jaime’s fiancee dead and her friends mov…

How bionic are you? Take the NBC quiz (and feel silly)
Filed under: Watercooler Talk, Bionic WomanLet me start that out by saying that I am fairly possibly mentally impaired. I am not certain how I function on a day-to-day basis.
