But when a devastating car accident leaves her at death's door, Jaime's only hope for survival is a cutting-edge, top-secret technology that comes at a hefty price. With a whole new existence and a debt to re-pay, Jaime must figure out how to use her extraordinary abilities for good, while weighing the personal sacrifices she will have to make. Ultimately, it's Jaime's journey of self-discovery and inner strength that will help her embrace her new life as the Bionic Woman. Also starring are: Mae Whitman ("State of Grace") as Becca, Jaime's younger sister; Miguel Ferrer ("Crossing Jordan") as Jonas, the man who employs Jaime's boyfriend; Chris Bowers ("Rescue Me) as Will, Jaime's boyfriend, who performs the operation; Will Yun Lee ("Witchblade") as Jae, the specialized operations leader; and Molly Price ("Third Watch"), as Ruth, Jonas' second-in-command. "Bionic Woman" is produced by NBC Universal Television Studio and executive-produced by David Eick ("Battlestar Galactica"), Glen Morgan ("The X-Files"), Michael Dinner ("Kidnapped") -- who also directed the pilot -- and Jason Smilovic ("Lucky Number Slevin"). Laeta Kalogridis ("Birds of Prey") is also an executive producer on the pilot.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04395206958842733684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30123083.post-44070877985338430872007-05-14T11:13:00.000-07:002007-05-14T11:13:00.000-07:00To add to the crazy coincidence -- I just started ...To add to the crazy coincidence -- I just started to watch Battlestar Galactica this weekend too!!

Agreed on the "flippy" hair thing. I fear though that next year will see the arrival of duds piled on top of duds. That and apparently a looming writer's guild strike could lead to even more super blase reality show tripe. sigh.<BR/>BvBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
