The best TV series from the 1970s. much better than the six million dollar man which was too much like a cartoon. Jaimies a strong woman yet there's a vulnerability to her. This is much better than the remake. she fights aliens, bigfoot and criminals. The theme song is great also. Put this DVD in your DVD player you won't be disappointed trust me!! she is a pro tennis player and a teacher and a heroine. The best episodes are when she battles the Fembots,bigfoot, and the aliens. her boyfriend was played by Christopher Stone husband of Dee Wallace-Stone. Jaimie drives a cool sports car, goes on government missions. She is the coolest and sexiest crime fighter. Buy this DVD!!

I absolutely adored this TV series, which unfortunately I've not been able to find in recent years on re runs. For me it was much more entertaining than its predecessor, The Six Million Dollar Man, possibly because being female, I identified more with its heroine. Also, I agree with another comment made that Steve Austin (Six Million Dollar Man) is more a comic book figure, while Jamie is a real multi dimensional person.The series revolves around a lovely young lady, Jamie Sommers, who suffers severe injuries in an airplane crash and is then rebuilt with bionic legs, one arm, and an ear. This first female cyborg is then sent undercover on spy missions by the Office of Scientific Investigations (OSI), using a high school teacher front as her cover.Lindsay Wagner is simply perfect here, charming and endearing as Jamie Sommers. Jamie's bionic colleague, Steve Austin (played by Lee Majors) occasionally joins her on missions. However, the other star I recall best from the series is Max, the wonderful bionic German Shepherd and her frequent companion. Jamie uses her special bionic speed, strength, and hearing in each episode to hunt down assorted spies and mad scientists. The episodes feature lots of action adventure and surely one of the most appealing heroines in television history. Jamie is beautiful, intelligent, affable, and compassionate...vulnerable in a sense (despite her powers) but strong and resourceful. Her strength is not simply bionic but strength of character. She would make a wonderful role model for modern young female viewers. In the intervening decades, television has never come up with a female action adventure star to equal her.

Lindsay Wagner is wonderful as Jaime Sommers, the bionic woman. For a show in the mid-70's it was brilliantly done, the cast, the plots, the special effects for its time were awesome. It is not a surprise that lindsay won an emmy for the episode (Deadly Ringer), it was definitly one of the best. Lindsay is a great actress and hopefully she will be acting for a long time to come.

when i and my brother and sister were in our child hood . One picture always amused us we always when the television started sat down beside it so that we can watch the movie . At that time it was not possible to even think of contacting the crew of bionic woman or six million dollar man. But now after about 24 years i have got the internet facilities and also to say thank you to the people whom i always admired and to espiacially jammie somers (lindsay wagner) and steve austin (lee majors) i thank you for giving us that picture to see we would remember it always and now also we still see the movie but in our dreams and scenes like lindsay wagner jumping and the fights with big foot and all . Again the movies scenes takes us to our past full of life and in our time to relax thinking about the movie is specialTHANK YOU FOR GIVING US OUR MEMORIES BY SHOWING US ONCE AGAIN THE SAME MOVIE
