Bionic Woman: Eick Says Series Cancelled, But Jaime May Return Someday

by Trevor Kimball, March 19, 2008

Bionic WomanWhile NBC hasn’t officially cancelled their Bionic Woman series, unofficially, everyone knows that it’s not coming back — including co-executive producer David Eick.

Though Eick had great success working with Ron Moore on the remake of Battlestar Galactica, the new Bionic Woman just wasn’t a success. At Sci Fi Channel’s upfront presentation yesterday, he said, “I just felt that the process was so frustrating, and the conditions under which we were making that show never really came to fruition in such a way that I felt like we could make the show well. The actress [Michelle Ryan] we found was wonderful. Some of the writing was good.”

Though he’s disappointed that the show didn’t come together, Eick hints that perhaps we haven’t seen the last of Jaime Sommers — in some form. He concedes, “We just didn’t ever bring it all together like we did with Battlestar. At a certain point, when it becomes that frustrating, I think you’re better off to say, ‘Let’s try again another time,’ and let it go.” Stay tuned! TV Series Finale home page

What I suspect would have helped ratings, actually, is to have stopped attempting to remake that classic (and favored for many of us from that generation) Lindsay Wagner-based show and instead simply introduce another bionic woman…by another name. I mean, the woman who last played Wagner’s iconic, well-developed and most memorable character has so little in common with the 70’s version…to her loss. Nothing against the actress, but the character name, concept and various cheap references made to the original series situations (i.e., making out in a bathroom with a man named Steve and making “the world’s 1st bionic woman”… Read more »

When they do make a new bionic man or woman I want that Eick person to have NOTHING to do with it. He seems to be talentless.

I can’t understand why you think the show wasn’t a success. A lot of us had began to see the show develop. Come on, find new writers and come back. If you need me, I’ll be glad to write. I promise, it will be the best watched show on TV when I start writing for you. COME ON – let’s get busy people. We need some exciting TV!

I just want to say that i will NOT be watching NBC anymore. I have no reason to. Where’s scrubs? Now i find out that Bionic Woman isn’t coming back? I have to SUFFER that repulsive Howie Mandel a full 7 nights, nope i can’t do that to myself. I don’t understand what’s the point when all you get is Ugly Medium with Patricia Arquette. Yuck, why in all these insufferable years, has she not got a hair cut? I like Office, and Thirty Rock, god love Tina Fey, but im just done. I’ve been completely let down, no will… Read more »
