Anyone else watching Bionic Woman besides me? Apparently not too many of you, which is a shame. I think that the series has shown some promise, although it has been a little uneven in its quality. Good episodes alternate with mediocre episodes. I'm all for setting the stage, introducing the characters, etcetera, but just get going. Right now, the ratings are about what got The Nine killed last year.

What do I like? Here's a small list:

1. Katie Sachkoff plays someone of almost pure evil on the show. Certainly her character on BSG-Starbuck- has elements of moral confusion, but as Jaime Sommers' nemesis she's downright creepy at times.

2. I enjoyed the original series. It didn't take itself too seriously and was a lot of fun. This version is much darker and bleaker. Sort of TV noir, with some comedic elements thrown in.

3. Holy mother of god, have you taken a good look at Michelle Ryan?

Oh sure, if you don't like the full lips, the flowing hair, the ample bosom, the swelling hips and the overall buff look of a gym rat, you might not think she's that attractive. Rumor has it that Senator Craig doesn't think Michelle Ryan is all that.

Interestingly, if you search the Innertubes for photos, she's actually got some pictures of her that somehow manage to make her look less than appealing. In my opinion, those photographers should all be caned. Michelle is so freakishly hot that I tend to get distracted during... what was I saying? Anyway, if I were half my current age, unmarried, rich and famous, much better looking and someone else entirely, she'd be the future ex-Mrs. Physics Geek. Unfortunately for her, I'm older and ecstatically married. So she'll have to spend her life pining for the fjords. I'd offer to comfort her, but it just wouldn't be fair.
