*The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman are extremely difficult to document because of the way they originally aired, and how they are shown now. The Six Million Dollar Man started off as a series of ninety minute movies (which have all been filled out to two hours and cut into two part episodes in syndication). Most of the rest of the episodes were one hour, with occasional two hours shows that are now syndicated in two parts. If all of this isn't tough enough to keep track of, several stories alternated between The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman. For instance, Kill Oscar had parts one and three shown on The Six Million DollarMan, while two appeared on The Bionic Woman. To make matters even more confusing, these cross-over shows that continued from one to another have all been lumped together in syndication, with two and three part episodes being shown entirely in one series or another, but not both.

Premise: When astronautl test pilot Steve Austin is critically injured in airplane crash, the Office of Scientific Investigations fits him with bionic legs, an arm, and an eye, then sends him out on missions of national concern which require his special skills and strengths.

Editor's comments: An extremely popular show with both children and adults,creating a huge following and a spin-off series, The Bionic Wonan. The reasons behind this popularity are abit hard to explain, although the leading actors (Lee Majors and Lindsay Wagner) certainly inspired much appeal, even though the actors didn't always get along too well off camera. Probably the greatest strength of both series was the broad spectrum of audience that it appealed to, withespionage action for the adults, and lots of bionic special effects that thrilled youngsters. Ironically enough, it is The Bionic Wonan that seems to have remained the most popular with dedicated fans, possibly because the stories - up until the third season - tended to be more serious. The Bionic Woman eventually fell victim to the "Irwin Allen Syndrome", in which a new monster or alien was brought in each week (instead of interesting stories) to keep up the ratings - a ploy that never works. The Six Million Dollar Man seemed to gradually fade out, and after nine years of bionic action both series were cancelled in 1978. But you can't keep a good cyborg down, and Major and Wagner returned - along with Anderson and Brooks - to do two excellent reunion movies, both that co-starred Lee Majors II. Mter nearly twenty years both series remain strong in syndication around the world.
