  • Jaime Sommers allows herself to be captured rather than use her Bionics and risk the lives of children. What she and her kidnappers don't know, is that Steve Austin is in hot pursuit! It's the first major action sequence from the first Bionic Reunion movie "The Return of the Six Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman." (1987)
    Legendary award-winning (Oscar, Grammy, Tony, Emmy, Pulitzer) composer Marvin Hamlisch (The Sting, The Way We Were, A Chorus Line, The Spy Who Loved Me) provides a quintessentially 80s action score as it pops, rocks, and saxiphones its way through Jaime's rescue. Yes, we all would have preferred the classic themes of Oliver Nelson and Joe Harnell. But in their absence, Hamlisch acquits himself well.
    In the USA all reunion movies are currently available on DVD:
    • THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN COMPLETE COLLECTION (2010) through Time-Life. (includes bonus features not found in the retail boxed set below)
    • THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN - THE COMPLETE SERIES (2015) available in retail stores and online.
    In the UK all reunion movies are currently available only on Fabulous Films SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN COMPLETE DVD SERIES and BIONIC WOMAN COMPLETE DVD COLLECTION.

    I loved this as a kid. I used to play bionic so much that now, at 58, whenever I'm lifting something heavy, my mind still makes the bionic sound effect

      😂I was pretending I was bionic when I was 10, and trying to open our large, brand new deep freezer. It was very stubborn all of a sudden and stuck. So I reefed on it, and I opened it with a heave (yes, and sound effects in my head), and discovered it had been locked and I’d ripped the lock off. 😂😂. We had to get a new freezer. My parents were confounded and so was the store. I am not a big person and even a jug of milk is heavy to me so I have no idea how it even happened.

      ​@@jeandemoura1566 Allo Jean. Ils disent que c'était une règle en métal tenue en partie sur une table. L'extrémité libre a été tirée vers le bas et relâchée. Le son de la règle vibrante a été enregistré et ralenti pour produire l'effet sonore du bras bionique. Mais c'était peut-être un vrai bras bionique - bruyant mais efficace !

    I had a hip replacement a couple of years ago. While awaiting my turn to go into the operating room, one of the nurses and I were talking about this show because I was telling her that I was gonna be bionic with my new hip. We laughed and joked about me becoming the new bionic woman.
    After I got into the operating room, the nurse was getting ready to put the mask over my face to make me go to sleep. Just before she did that, she looked serious and solemn and announced, "We can rebuild"..... those were the last words I heard before it went dark.... ❤

    He was my best movie actor in the 80s and today at the age of close to 70 I confirm that Steve was truly under biotic experimentational Six Million Dollar Man. He did things we could not understand than jumping over fences and building and running as faster than the vehicle with so much power breaking metals in the name of RESCUE is incredible. I wish we could have more biotic man like him today to save many lives. I wish I could be like him today. God bless.

      The 80's are the most futuristic era ever. We were introduced to computers, electronic music, CD's, extravagant fashion... We had free speech, and old muscle cars were dirt cheap. In the 90's that utopian outlook made way for a slow and steady decline.
      The 70's felt like flower power mixed with the dark ages. Pretty messy in the end, and nowhere to go.
      Thus around 1980 everything went overboard, and we started with a clean slate.

Both became agents of OSI and their boss was a cool guy named Oscar Goldman, the person who facilitated the advanced bionic prosthetics technology that saved their lifes. Because now they were important and valuable assets, their lives changed and with their augmented powers they became useful agents for OSI.

      Jaime's body started to reject the bionics, originally she died. (Fun Fact Lindsay Wagner wrote out "Jaime" on the set, mis-spelling Jamie, and they kept her spelling of the name. Cheaper than reshooting the scene :) )
      Michael used an untested procedure to bring her back but it left her with no memory of Steve beyond him being her friend. She wouldn't get that memory back until this movie.

    The way he rolled that nearly 5000 lb station wagon was a good reminder as to how powerful Steve was, even in his more aged form...

      It was pretty cheesy back then .. some of the early six million dollar aged well, this not so well. I watched the orignal pilot a few years ago and it's still good, much darker than the later stuff.

    The greatest secret and mystery of the original series was how they created the bionic sound.
    It's literally bugged me since I was a little kid. No one who was associated with the show has ever said on record how they achieved it. Rumor has it that, Charles King, the Sound Designer for the shows, is reported to have braced a metal ruler or yardstick on the edge of a table, pulling and releasing the extended end, then slowing the resultant sound to 25%.
