Lohan must think she's the only Lindsay in the world

Wed, 10 Mar 2010 10:21:19 -0600

Hey, have you guys heard this one yet? Lindsay Lohan is suing E-Trade for $100 million all because in one of their ads they refer to a baby who just happens to be named Lindsay as a milkaholic. According to the lawsuit, Lohan feels that she has the same single name recognition as Oprah or Madonna, so the ad in which she feels is making fun of her problems with alcohol and drugs must be talking about her. LL's lawyer said her civil rights have been violated because they used her name without getting her approval and paying her.

Now of course I know I don't speak for everyone, but when I think of a famous Lindsay, I'm thinking of Wagner, not Lohan! However, LL may come to mind when I hear Lindsay and "holic" in the same sentence. LOL. But hey, here's a great idea....maybe LW should sue LL's parents for defaming her good name by naming their daughter Lindsay too. I mean if LL can sue E-Trade for thinking that she was the Lindsay they were referring to, LW should be able to make the argument that LL's parents must have had her in mind when naming their daughter....after all, what other Lindsay could they have been thinking of. LOL.

I'm sorry, but I've never learned how to post links....so I'm hoping that someone will be kind enough to post the Milkaholic E-Trade commercial here so everyone can see it. It's pretty funny.

Bionic test, just for fun.... but it works!

Rumor

Tue, 09 Mar 2010 12:10:44 -0600

A little birdy told me that TSMDM and TBW will be returning to American cable television this summer. Universal Studios is supposedly spending one million dollars to bring the shows up to today's standards, coupled with a huge promotional campaign. While it's hard for me to get excited by heavily edited syndicated episodes that we've seen a million times before, it will be nice to have the shows in the spotlight again, and perhaps promoted by Lee and Lindsay. Stay tuned.

Hair color ?

Tue, 09 Mar 2010 07:41:04 -0600

six millions/Bionic Woman

Mon, 08 Mar 2010 17:37:49 -0600

Hello. Does anyone know where I can watch Kill Oscar - Part 3? I've managed to watch Part 1 and 2 from the Episode Player, but I've been unable to find Part 3 on the player. If anyone knows I would greatly appreciate it. Also, does anyone know where I could watch the entire movie of "Bionic Ever After?" Thanks to anyone who could help me out.

what age was you when you become a bionic fan?

Another attempt to create a spin off that DID NOT work .. like Max ..

Andy Sheffield, a once-athletic youngster living in a small Utah town, has been selected by an OSI computer to receive an implant to restore his paralyzed legs, which were injured in a landslide that killed his father, who was a controversial figure. The implant gives Andy enormous physical power, and the boy sets out on a dangerous mission to clear his father's name.

SPAM BOTS BE DAMNED!

I did take a little time a couple of days ago to implement the coding in the boards registration system that kicks away attempted registrations by cross checking username, IP address, and email address with a known spam bot listing.

So far I have seen several successful and valid registrations.

HOWEVER - if you are attempting to register as an honest participant of OfficialBionicWoman.com and you are getting "the boot" - please contact me personally using steven@officialbionicwoman.com and I will assist you.

So far so good, no complaints, and no bad guys in the door

Hope all of you are well, I am only in on and off for a bit here as I polish up a rush job for a new client.

Enjoy the weekend!

speed

Thu, 04 Mar 2010 20:32:07 -0600

I just watched (again) the first reunion movie and I was wondering if it bothered anyone else that Michael could run over 200 mph? I understand that a few years have past and technology advances but in 8 years? Rudy is a gifted man but there is a huge difference between running 60 mph and 200+ mph. I guess for true sci-fi fans it is good but I prefer the human side (as do all of us) with some bionics added, not the other way around. AND.....What is with Steve not even kissing Jaime?
Don't even get me started again....

Even Lindsay has a blind spot

Wed, 03 Mar 2010 22:16:47 -0600

OK, folks: Just as I promised in another thread, I have something important to share about the Lindsay Wagner I so love and admire -- something picture-rounding which will help us all in our lifelong learning through The Bionic Woman and her program.

What I want to share is that even Lindsay has a blind side. As great as she is, the Lindsay that we love simply has an inaccurate memory picture of what she did in character as Jaime Sommers. An example: In Chris Mann's recent Retroality online interview, Lindsay states that rather than throwing a rock through a car window to stop the bad guys from fleeing (in Jaime's Mother, as we know), she knocked over a tree so that the car would have to stop. That's true, of course, but Lindsay is forgetting that the result of knocking over that tree was that Jaime caused a bad accident in which the driver was seriously wounded in the forehead, after which she ripped open the back door, grabbed the gunman who'd just shot Chris, and threw him twenty or more feet onto the hard ground, with a tiny clump of grass as a landing pad.

Yes, the blood was put in during post production, as revealed in The Bionic Book, and yes, it was thirty-plus years ago. Lindsay might not have realized how a given scene would come off at the time, but the fact that even now she gets basic things not quite right is more than a memory lapse: it's a small but significant blind spot -- one which can teach us all a thing or two.

Basically, seeing ourselves in a slightly (or, for some, SIGNIFICANTLY) better light than we really are is an essential human trait. In the case of the lady we love, what's happening is that she's so determined to teach through acting as therapy that she almost didn't do the program which made her famous because it wasn't "serious" enough for her; then, when she finally gave in and did do the series, Lindsay was forced to play "The Six Million Dollar Man in a skirt," going around smacking the designated "bad guy" down with her character's super strength. Yes, she communicated to us that might doesn't automatically make right, but it's simply not true that all Jaime's uses of bionics were defensive -- nor should they have been. If you've watched the program carefully and remember it in detail, you'll realize that a more accurate explanation of how Jaime used her bionics would be that she put up with no criminal or violent behavior from others, but quickly calmed down and showed compassion -- even real tenderness -- for anyone who hadn't been pointing a gun at herself or her loved ones. Even in those cases, Jaime was never truly vindictive for very long, but she certainly did "close the book" on people like Tom Tharpe and his goons (in All For One). Though she -- just like Steve -- often pushed Oscar and Rudy to justify their utilization of her bionic abilities on missions, once Jaime was in, she was all in. And a key point about this great show was precisely that Miss Sommers just never took any bull.

I mention this because it's a good object lesson in why even stars are still just people, not gods. That's absolutely essential to remember when interacting with Lindsay, as well as when just basking in her glow or passing on her outstanding heritage to those who are as yet new to it. Tell them this: Lindsay is great as a person and actress because of her nonviolent stance, but The Bionic Woman is still a crime-action SF show, so she still stops the "bad guys" forcefully. Watch COPS -- or any other similar offering -- and you'll see that the types of things Jaime and Steve did to people would really have maimed and killed them in real life; we must therefore be even more emphatic in our suspension of disbelief than we would with newer, more realistic programs. Remember: Lindsay didn't let her kids watch our show at the ages when most of us discovered it (something she revealed on Entertainment Tonight sometime during the eighties or nineties). Them's the facts, and no child is mature enough for the show until he or she can both understand and deal with those facts.

All this may seem blatantly obvious, and you may even question why I bother pointing out a flaw in the woman we all love. Well, I do it because by understanding that Lindsay's still the greatest even though she's not perfect, we can keep this whole bionic phenomenon in perspective. I don't believe I am the only one just working this out, but even if I am, I hope sharing it with you has at least piqued your interest, at least added yet another dimension to your love of these classic characters and their televisual universe. If so, please post your thoughts. If not, just go ahead and ignore these, the ramblings of a confessed bionic fanatic!!!!!

We waited YEARS to hear Oscar say this !

"... she remembered .. everything! " time index 1:05 ... Loved the fact that they used actual footage from the show .. the contrast .. "I cant remember what is was like to be in love with you".

Steve finds out Chris was killed in Budapest

Wed, 03 Mar 2010 19:23:45 -0600

I always wondered HOW much Steve knew about Chris .. of course this scene helps explain loose ends prior to the reunion of Steve and Jaime. As facile (easy) that appears .. I gotta admit .. I could picture the mission and felt that the mission (where Chris died) MAY have appeared on an ole episode of BW or SMDM (it never did) .. but it felt right .. as a transition I think it worked .. at the other end of the transition spectrum is Bobby Ewing coming out of the shower (thereby dismissing an entire season of story telling : on Dallas) ... I thought this was good.

Did you catch the name of Steve's boat?
