The Bionic Woman (2007)

The Bionic Woman was a short lived television series that ran an abbreviated season just before the Motion Pictures and Television Writers strike of Winter 1997. The series was the brainchild of David Eick, co-producer of the successful re-imagined Battlestar Galactica television series, but it was handled poorly. Dark, depressing, and without a soul, the Bionic Woman tried to capture the feel of BSG (even as far as having tons of BSG actors do cameo appearances on the show) but it was a misguided effort. The ratings plummeted after the first episode, being that this was a dark and ultimately unsatisfying show about a super-heroine who could never use her powers in public. The writer's strike put the nail in the show's coffin and it was not renewed for more episodes after the strike ended in the early Spring of 2008. Typical of Hollywood, all of the blame for the expensive show's failure was hurled at the show's star, Michelle Ryan, which was exceptionally unfair, since the show's weaknesses lay squaring on the shoulders of the producer, director(s) and script writers.
