Word on the www. is that Michelle Ryan has been preparing for her upcoming role as Jaime Sommers by climbing mountains and learning ‘Krav Maga’. “What’s Krav Maga?” I hear you say..well, it’s an old fighting discipline which focuses on close hand-to-hand combat. Originating from Israel, this style of fighting is based around self-defence, but don’t [...]

“Mish-Mash” of Popular Culture
I know that I have posted alot of Michelle Ryan stuff over the past few days, but she is our lead actress..she deserves it! Anyway, did you know that her nickname growing up was “Mish-Mash”? No, neither did I. I wonder whether Jaime Sommers will have a nickname in the show?..other than ‘civilain’, ‘bionic woman’ or ‘test subject’, [...]
New Promo Images Released!
The other day I complained about the lack of promo images that NBC had released – and as if by magic they have now released some fresh images for our Bionic eyes to savour (not that i’m claiming credit, but i’ll take what I can get;))! The images are taken from Episode 1.02 and they feature Jaime Sommers, Antonio Pope, [...]
Growing Pains: Why Ryan is The One
One of the main ‘Bionic Woman’ talking points over the past few months has been the casting of ”Brit-Chick” Michelle Ryan for the lead role of Jaime Sommers. She is (or ‘was’) relatively unknown in the States prior to being casted, and there is still strong cynism from some quarters, at having an unestablished actress playing such a pivotal role. Don’t [...]
1970′s Vs 2007 – Full Circle or Full of Fear?

Chelle’ Be a Perfectionist
Not much in the way of news again. I guess NBC are saving it all up for the next few weeks and forcing us to quivver with anticipation? I mean c’mon guys, can we at least have some more promo images (like more than one or two), I really want to create a better banner for the [...]

The Promise of the Premise
Howdy people! How are we on this fine Sunday? Not much in the way of Bionic news at the moment, but I found this little snippet from Maureen Ryan over at Metromix. She seems impressed by the premise of BW, which makes me happy as I’ve been championing the concept of the show for some [...]
BAT-TEST: 97% Obtained!
..not by me, but by one of our readers, Kennindra! Who along with Madegurl (84% Bionic) has allowed me to use screencaps of the exclusive footage that they have unlocked. It would appear that the footage is dependent on a persons BAT-Score. Enjoy these screencaps! (be careful if you haven’t yet seen the leaked Pilot!!) [...]
