Lindsay Wagner Confirms the Rumors of the Bionic Woman 0904am 18.8.24 weirdly enough the sasquatch lee majors fought just looked like some footage i saw of an alleged sasquatch tearing up trees and throwing them in anger in some forest the other week..
Lindsay Wagner was the biggest role model to this now 50 something year old woman! I was between 10 and 15 years of age and watched the show avidly and she influenced me positively and I am what I am today because of her and how she chose to portray her character Jamie Summers. Thank you!
Same here! I wanted to become a cop because of her but I chose the military instead. Still a wonderful role model for us ❤ I wish young girls now had a great woman to look up to but unfortunately there's none in hollyweird and not the leftist politicians 😢
The Bionic Woman is my #1 all-time favorite show to this day. I loved the episodes where Jaime and Max were caught in a forest fire and with Max having a fear of fire when he was a puppy, that episode still make me tear up to this day.
I grew up in rhe 70's & 80's , & The Six Million Dollar Man & The Bionic Woman were two of my all time favorite shows to watch, so it was shows like The Bionic Woman, The New Adventures of Wonder Woman, & Charlie's Angels that made me appreciate strong women characters on the TV screen & in movies as a small male child, & to this day as a 57 year old man soon to be 58 in February I still cherish & own these TV shows on DVD & will never stop stepping back in time to re-watch them!! ❤💯
Lindsay was not underpaid. In reality she was the first female actress in Hollywood to earn top dollar on a tv series. 85K an episode. Whereas Majors was making only 50k an episode. Lee also lost any compensation for all the merchandising from the series. Lee did re negotiate his salary , but Lindsay was still earning top dollar in Hollywood.
Lindsay returned to The Bionic Woman (after being killed off on the Six Million Dollar Man) after big protests, cutting a deal with Universal for $500K.
Regarding the pay discrepancy, Wagner was paid scale because she was under contract to Universal at the time of TSMDM. While at Universal, she literally cycled through their entire repertoire of shows including the Rockford Files and Marcus Welby, MD. When fans protested the death of Jamie, Wagner was asked to return, but Universal had let her contract lapse during this time. Wagner's manager Ron Samuels was able to get her $50,000 for the two episodes she did on the SMDM. When it came to renegotiating for TBW, Samuels was able to get Wagner the same amount of money Majors was making plus a percentage of toy sales, lunch boxes, three movies and several mini-series, etc. Lee Majors heard this and was very angry that Samuels was able to cut such a sweet deal. Side note, Majors ruined his wife's Farrah's gig on Charlies' Angels by having her demand more money for which the studio turned her down, but did pay top dollar for Farrah to come back several times. When it came to the movies made afterwards, Wagner was said to have made the same amount as Majors, who had reconciled himself with making as much as a woman. If you noticed, Lindsay made movies after TBW while Lee made series. It was said that Lindsay's movie deals were just as sweet as Lee's series, meaning she worked fewer hours for the same amount of money. Back then, a star was paid about $25,000 per episode or about $600,000 per year. As for being stereotype, I think that is wrong. Within two years of TBW ending, Lindsay did the Incredible Journey of Dr. Meg Laurel and the Two Worlds of Jenny Logan. This was followed by a movie called Night Hawks with Sylvester Stallone. In the early 80s she had her two sons, then went right back to work. Wagner has over 50 TV films to her credits numerous miniseries, around 10 major motion pictures and a long list of TV comedies and dramas! Most were very good productions with major film and television stars! I don't understand how Wagner could feel she was stereotyped when she worked more than Farrah, Kate Jackson and Jackie Smith--all who were stereotyped more than Wagner ever was!
The Bionic Woman and the Bionic Dog Max was the 2 part show I enjoyed very much. I was incredible the way Max saved the rolling car with the little baby in from crashing into ongoing traffic.
I loved the episode where she interacted with a lion belonging to Tippy Hedren and all the episodes that showed Max, the beautiful German Shepard in the series. This series also inspired me to visit Ojai personally. My precious brindle colored chihuahua named Candiss and I fell in love with this small town nestled in the woods with its fabulous hiking trails, quaint art exhibits. restaurants. and delicious pizzeria. Lindsey also presented the Bionic Woman with such beauty and grace at the same time showing bionics in a positive light. We miss seeing you Lindsey W. ❤🙏
Yes.. love her flowing hair in motion while her bionic is in action... I bet they specifically need an actress with long hair.. no short hair actress could portray it well enough.
Bionic Woman was my absolute favorite show growing up. I played competitive tennis as a kid and always imagined I could be bionic if I ever got injured LOL. Second favorite show was The Secrets of Isis. The fact that Lindsay Wagner declined prissy or revealing outfits puts so much credibility to her talent and decisions. She really was a role model to girls and young women. Oddly, the 1970's exploded with powerful female characters in mainstream media, both sci-fi and not, with Bionic Woman, Wonder Woman, Charlie's Angels, Secrets of Isis, Police Woman, etc. Aside from the "powerful" women, there were the "empowered" ones, too, like Maude, Mary Tyler Moore, Julia, and Alice. When you read about the decisions these actresses made to help promote realistic feminism in male-dominated Hollywood, they all were trailblazers. Love their '70s styles, too!
I loved The Bionic Woman - I didn't bother watching The Six Million Dollar Man. I'm the same age as Lindsay Wagner, and I understood what she was doing with her character as far as female empowerment and intelligence. That was a rarity back in the day. She remains one of my favorite actors.
I loved watching the Bionic Woman also and didn’t like watching the Six Million Dollar Man as much. Having the dog Max as her companion was a definite plus for me. Beautiful German Shepard and so intelligent too❣️ It made me like German shepherds for a while as my favorite breed until the Jack Russell terrier came into the picture later on in my life personally. Still Jamie & Max were a perfect match for the series. ❤️👍
BIONIC SHOWDOWN (the 2nd TV movie) featured Sandra Bullock as Kate , the new Bionic Woman with wire implants. Lee Majors was in it with Wagner. In the 3rd and final TV movie: Bionic Ever After (in 1994); Steve and Jaime finally married; almost 20 years later, when they were supposed to get married on his series back in 1975- when she was introduced.
My favorite episodes of the bionic was and is Kill Oscar and femots in Las Vegas. I didn't know there was so much that went into creating the bionic woman. I like that the fact that Lindsey Wagner did her own stunts to make her character Jamie Sommers the bionic woman more believable.
DC Comics, together with Dynamite Comics, did a 6-issue limited series called “Wonder Woman '77 Meets The Bionic Woman”, in which the two super females team up. DC was already producing the comic “Wonder Woman '77”, based on the TV show.
I watched this show as a young girl of 12 until it went off the air. My favourite episodes were of the Fembots (they were scary!), the haunted episode with Kristy McNicoll, and the Doomsday Bomb episode where Jamie disarmed the bomb, thus saving the whole planet, lol. That was a powerful message for a young girl to see how a woman could be the saviour of all life on the planet. I absolutely adored Lindsay Wagner in this role, she kept it real even though the concept was surreal at the time. I watched SMDM until she broke into her own show, and then I basically left Steve Austin behind.
In 1971, on a Shaker Rapid-Transit, I met upcoming actress Lyndsay Wagner studying for the upcoming movie,"Two People."We chatted a while and I said,"If your name's ever up in lights,I'll remember you." She has done pretty well.:-)
Fun stuff, thanks for sharing your life story. We're very happy to know that you had a chance to meet Lindsay Wagner! What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
Women's lib was a popular topic in the 70s and was prevalent in this show. I loved the two-parter of Six Millon Dollar Man that had Steve and Jaime getting engaged and the tear-jerker ending where she "died," but I'm glad they didn't marry on either series. Marriage tends to ruin the chemistry. I think they married in one of the movies.
Talk about crossovers, what I wanted back then was a miniseries featuring Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter), the Bionic Woman (Lindsay Wagner), Jill Munroe (Farrah Fawcett), and Isis (Joanna Cameron). I was in middle school. And just like my schoolmates, I was deeply and madly infatuated with these lovely women. I even sent letters to Lindsay Wagner and ABC in my desperate attempt to suggest the idea. I remember my mom and my older cousins laughing at me and ridiculing me when they made me read the letters out loud. I regretted asking them for some money for my postage stamps. 😅 Anyway, my idea was inspired by the episode called (if I'm not mistaken) "The Bionic Woman vs The Fembot". Hey, I was about to get into high school. Raging hormones, you know. 😂
Eventually they would all be arrested and thrown into jail by Police Woman ( Angie Dickinson ) for leaving her out of this great miniseries. Including sergeant Pepper Anderson also would make this miniseries even better.
Your "facts" are wrong. They did wed at the end of Bionic Ever After, aaaaand Sandra Bullock was in the second movie, Bionic Showdown, with NO love interest ties to Steve Austin..watch all three made-for-tv movies before you record inaccurate facts..lol
@@robeastwood5112 Thank you. When I saw and heard the mess up, I just had to call the guy out on it. There are soooo many videos on YT like that, where somebody thinks they know a fact based on a snippet of information..
I don't get it. I just saw "Bionic Ever After" and it had both Lee Majors and Lindsay Wagner. I even see a thumbnail right here with both actors. Was this video done before the movie actually aired and they changed their plans?
At 5:48 what's up with the rando clip of Lynda Carter, who played Wonder Woman? Don't get me wrong, I love both Lindsay Wagner as the Bionic Woman and Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman but they are not interchangeable. Or are they?
My favorite show as a kid, i was soooo excited when Santa brought me the bionic woman doll!! Used to jump onto couch from coffee table making the bionic sound and in slow mo 😂
I loved this show as a child. My friends and I used to run around in slow motion all the time and try to make the bionic noise with our tongue. We would pretend to be able to hear anything, and that was amazing, because we were blind. You think we’d wish for Steve’s bionic eye but nope, we wanted Jamie‘s ear.
I recall when she DIED, yes DIED on THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN!! I sobbed for months!! Hollywood magic brought her back!!She kinda looks like Lynda Carter here------>>>>> 5:48🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
I loved this show more than anything! Lindsay Wagner made Jaime Sommers believable, smart, sassy, pretty, and one hell of a woman! I wrote a fan letter to Lindsay Wagner and received an autographed photo, which I have since lost. I'd love to have it now!!
@@FactsVerse I would like to see Thundar the Barbarian, BraveStarr, Galtor, and the golden lance. I would like to see these characters receive their own comic book by writers!
Lots of incorrect info. Lindsay was not athletic and admits it opening. She did not refuse to wear a safety harness they didn’t give her one, and she never broke her wrist. Also the movies were relatively successful and Lee majors was in all of them and they married in the last one.
I loved this show! The sound effects and her jumping were my favorite part and it looked very real. They did a fantastic job with the limited special effects technology of the 70s. Actually I bet the special effects then would still be better than the cgi today if it was redone.
Lindsay didn’t lack for work after Bionic Woman. Check out her movies (and tv series) like “Scruples”, “The Incredible World of Jenny Logan”, “Nighthawks” and many others. It sounds like she has found peace with Jaimie Sommers, as back in the 70s & 80s she really regretted and resented the association.
She showed me as a teen, just like Judy Norton, you could be sexy without wearing revealing close, both played their parts in a sexy yet classy ways, Loved both show even when they got a little goofy.
Lindsay was awesome in this role. Certainly very pretty, but was a good enough actress to be taken seriously. She was a great role model for young girls.
Bionic Ever after was made in 1994 where Steve and Jamie got married. Bionic Showdown was the one with Sandra Bullock in it. she was not the love interest of Steve. that movie was in 1989.
This series was designed to entertain young people and definitely engaged young girls as the show had humour and many stories about dealing with some evil organisations and showed a woman as a leading figure as a strong woman who wasn't a push over, she as the bionic woman had strength and wisdom and stood up against the villains with good knowledge of hand to hand fighting skills and with her cybernetics implants gave her the upper hand to every outcome, but there were times her abilities need updates or help from Steve of which I believe there was some years ago a movie about their adopted son who is injured and gain bionics himself and later in another film there is daughter to who has become bionic implants. I believe these kids and Steve and Jamie become the Bionic Family and then joined by an old friend of Steve's who was a spy with special powers very similar to Steve? And I recall a planned cartoon series in 20015 from the series and set around the Family story?
Ok, you got a couple of things wrong. The 1st movie did not feature Steve & Jaime's son who becomes bionic. It's Oscar's nephew & Sandra Bullock did NOT play their daughter. She was a paraplegic patient of Rudy Wells whom he had recruited for a new type of bionic implants.
Fun Fact..When they filmed Jaime or Steve characters jumping up onto something they were actually stepping off it and reversed the film to give the effect. By slowing the film where their Bionic limbs were being used was another gimmick and they found by instead showing them running fast etc speeding up the film looked silly. In Godzilla films they over speed up the camera during shooting so when it played normally the suit actors movement looked more natural and massive destroying miniatures on set. During each series more Bionic characters were revealed including Bigfoot, the dog Max, and actor Monte Markum as the Seven Million Dollar Man character before Lee Majors Austin. In one episode of the Bionic Woman a Jaime look alike used a drug to give the imposter super strength and of course Wagner-Majors did each of their dopplegangers. Indeed Tina Louise the last living cast member of Gilligans Island also played her own look alike in one episode as did Bob Denver and Jim Backus but they played their imposters as Gilligan-Mr. Howell. Even when those like Wager were the lead in their own series it was rare that they had pay parity with others male leads on different series even a spinoff. When they did exceed their male counterparts those that did like Lucille Ball on her two series after I Love Lucy had star power-popularity to demand more. Like many series both hinted at adult relationships and liaisons for single characters but never showed a morning after moment or leaving and definitely not in bed on TV..
I was a teen when Bionic Woman came out...Man oh MAN, I had such crush on Ms Wagner...She was such a hottie.. Well, I'm 60 now and she's 75, so if she's single, I think it's 'doable' lol.
Lindsay Wagner actually got paid more than Lee Majors. She was an Emmy winner for her role, they gave her a doll for her character. Lee demanded a doll as well and higher pay, as he felt she spun off his series.
Here's an interesting concept, what if you did a video which takes elements of tv shows and movies about events portrayed in them, and matches them with events that have practically occurred to a tea many years in the future...that would certainly get you tons of viewers.
I loved the bionic woman, once she came on the scene I was hooked. Sorry Lee Majors, don’t think I ever watched the six million dollar man again once Lindsay Wagner got her own show.
Who the hell was that blonde comedian? That’s not Lindsay Wagner nor did she have any affiliation with the $6 million man or the bionic woman, so why would she put in there?
Your facts are wrong about salaries. Lindsay Wagner was paid significantly more than Lee majors -- it was a huge deal in 1976 and covered in the media extensively -- and Lee Majors threatened to quit his show over being paid less. His resentment over it still exists to this day. In fact, before Lindsay signed on to play Jaime Sommers, the Six Million Dollar Man was on the brink of cancellation due to low ratings. It was only the addition of Wagner that made both shows hits. As well, the ratings of he Bionic Woman were higher than Six Mill for a significant portion of its run. Shocked that a facts based channel like this would have so many facts wrong.
Uh... FactsVerse. Yeah. I did catch the scene where you are talking about Lindsay Wagner and yet show Lynda Carter (Wonder Woman) being interviewed. Be. Careful.
I love Lindsay no matter what. One interview I read she said it was just too exhausting and she was glad the series was over. She was fabulous in several movies, two of which: She Woke Up, Two Worlds of Jenny Logan, etc.
Lindsay Wagner aka Jaime Sommers The Bionic Woman was Totally Awesome! Switching TV Networks from ABC To NBC Should of really gave her more Independent Spotlight and along with her personal stunt performances even just as much and even at that more $$$. Missed seeing Lee Majors aka Steve Austin Six Million Dollar Man But You have to break all Spinoff ties from the main Shadow and Do It on your own! Why the Series Couldn't do at least another Season will always be a Mystery Although TV Comedies at that 1970s time did Unfortunately wipe out a lot of Sci-Fi Shows, I do know that prior to The Bionic Woman, Wagner was scratched up in a car accident leaving a minor scar on her upper lip in which didn't affect her looks wise one single bit! Period! I was glad that at least Richard Anderson aka Oscar Goldman and Martin E Brooks aka Dr. Rudy Wells was able to Jump Back and Forth ABC and NBC Network Ships to have completed both Bionic Woman and Six Million Dollar Man Final Season Episodes! The Three Bionic Reunion Movies from the Late 1980s to Mid 1990s With Both Wagner and Majors was pretty Cool and was glad to have it in my SMDM DVD Collection! Thank-You! For sharing and God Bless!
Absolutely! We feel the same way. Thank you for sharing your sentiments and for watching our content. What other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
Imagine telling a taxpayer that the government spent millions of your tax dollars to build super humans and give dogs bionic parts. I suspect that wouldn’t go over to well.
Woooooow el retorno de la mujer bionica seria genial .el audio con sus título para saber de que se trata este retorno dela mujer bionica y quien seria jaime sommer

Lindsay Wagner is a timeless beauty. Not only physically beautiful, she is also smart, humble and dignified.
The Bionic Woman is my #1 all-time favorite show to this day. I loved the episodes where Jaime and Max were caught in a forest fire and with Max having a fear of fire when he was a puppy, that episode still make me tear up to this day.
Love this show. And The Six Million Dollar Man!! Great upload!!😊
Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. If we may ask, what is your favorite episode of the show?
I always loved the interactions between Oscar Goldman and Jamie Sommers. Kind of a father daughter relationship.

I grew up in rhe 70's & 80's , & The Six Million Dollar Man & The Bionic Woman were two of my all time favorite shows to watch, so it was shows like The Bionic Woman, The New Adventures of Wonder Woman, & Charlie's Angels that made me appreciate strong women characters on the TV screen & in movies as a small male child, & to this day as a 57 year old man soon to be 58 in February I still cherish & own these TV shows on DVD & will never stop stepping back in time to re-watch them!! ❤💯

Bionic Ever After was the 3th reunion movie where Steve and Jaime finally get married. Oscar Goodman and Rudy Wells were also at the wedding.

I still have a crush 🤗
Last I checked, there were THREE post-series TV movies that ended with Steve and Jamie getting married.

Im 67 now and I still Love Lindsey Wagner.
i think you got the video clips mixed up and showed one clip of wonder woman instead of the bionic woman
"Factsverse" needs to get the FACTS STRAIGHT..thanks Patrick for letting others know truth,I totally enjoyed wedding of the bionics😊
At 5:48 what's up with the rando clip of Lynda Carter, who played Wonder Woman? Don't get me wrong, I love both Lindsay Wagner as the Bionic Woman and Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman but they are not interchangeable. Or are they?
The bionic woman was ahead of it's time back in the 70's. I was a kid when it was on tv.
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
One of my memories from my 70s TV childhood - out of many during that great mid-70s TV era.
My favorite show as a kid, i was soooo excited when Santa brought me the bionic woman doll!! Used to jump onto couch from coffee table making the bionic sound and in slow mo 😂
We're happy to know that you're a fan of the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
I loved this show as a child. My friends and I used to run around in slow motion all the time and try to make the bionic noise with our tongue. We would pretend to be able to hear anything, and that was amazing, because we were blind. You think we’d wish for Steve’s bionic eye but nope, we wanted Jamie‘s ear.
Just before the 6-minute mark there was footage of Lynda Carter who played Wonder Woman. Why?
The people that do these videos are clueless.
Coolest woman of the 70s, definitely. An icon!! Lovely lady in real life too.
3/4ths of the way through, you show Lynda Carter! Why??
I recall when she DIED, yes DIED on THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN!! I sobbed for months!! Hollywood magic brought her back!!She kinda looks like Lynda Carter here------>>>>> 5:48🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
That was Lynda Carter. Lindsey and Lynda were close friends in real life.
I loved this show more than anything! Lindsay Wagner made Jaime Sommers believable, smart, sassy, pretty, and one hell of a woman! I wrote a fan letter to Lindsay Wagner and received an autographed photo, which I have since lost. I'd love to have it now!!
We're happy to know that you're a fan of the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
My favorite thing about the series was her moral choices. She had the bionics to stop even the most evil doer! Helps to be pretty too🥰
To be frank, I had a crush on the Bionic Woman in my elementary school days! Man!
Us too! Thanks for the trip down memory lane. What other types of video would you like to see?
@@FactsVerse I would like to see Thundar the Barbarian, BraveStarr, Galtor, and the golden lance. I would like to see these characters receive their own comic book by writers!
As a Brazilian, I can't forget when she sang "Feelings"
But Oscar Goldman was allowed to be on both shows on different networks?
You are completely incorrect. They were married and Lee Majors was in the movie. Need to check your facts
Thanks for anther great upload loved Lyndsey Wagner sh was wonderful god bless
I love the bionic woman. Lindsay is beautiful.
Us too! Which episode of Bionic Woman appealed to you the most?
Odd that when you mention stunt coordinators you show Lynda Carter. Was this video made by AI ?
Lots of incorrect info. Lindsay was not athletic and admits it opening. She did not refuse to wear a safety harness they didn’t give her one, and she never broke her wrist. Also the movies were relatively successful and Lee majors was in all of them and they married in the last one.
Here because I just viewed her on The Dating Game 1968
I loved this show! The sound effects and her jumping were my favorite part and it looked very real. They did a fantastic job with the limited special effects technology of the 70s. Actually I bet the special effects then would still be better than the cgi today if it was redone.
We're happy to know that you're a fan of the show. In your opinion, what is its best episode?
Lindsay didn’t lack for work after Bionic Woman. Check out her movies (and tv series) like “Scruples”, “The Incredible World of Jenny Logan”, “Nighthawks” and many others. It sounds like she has found peace with Jaimie Sommers, as back in the 70s & 80s she really regretted and resented the association.
She did a great show called "Jesse", about a police psychologist.
She showed me as a teen, just like Judy Norton, you could be sexy without wearing revealing close, both played their parts in a sexy yet classy ways, Loved both show even when they got a little goofy.
So true! Thank you for bringing back memories. Made us miss those times.
Lindsay was awesome in this role. Certainly very pretty, but was a good enough actress to be taken seriously. She was a great role model for young girls.
Bionic Ever after was made in 1994 where Steve and Jamie got married. Bionic Showdown was the one with Sandra Bullock in it. she was not the love interest of Steve. that movie was in 1989.
I love her ❤
We love Lindsay too. What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
Awesome Show.
One of our favorites too, you've got fine taste! What other types of video would you like to see?
@@FactsVerse Wonder Woman.
This series was designed to entertain young people and definitely engaged young girls as the show had humour and many stories about dealing with some evil organisations and showed a woman as a leading figure as a strong woman who wasn't a push over, she as the bionic woman had strength and wisdom and stood up against the villains with good knowledge of hand to hand fighting skills and with her cybernetics implants gave her the upper hand to every outcome, but there were times her abilities need updates or help from Steve of which I believe there was some years ago a movie about their adopted son who is injured and gain bionics himself and later in another film there is daughter to who has become bionic implants. I believe these kids and Steve and Jamie become the Bionic Family and then joined by an old friend of Steve's who was a spy with special powers very similar to Steve? And I recall a planned cartoon series in 20015 from the series and set around the Family story?
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
Ok, you got a couple of things wrong. The 1st movie did not feature Steve & Jaime's son who becomes bionic. It's Oscar's nephew & Sandra Bullock did NOT play their daughter. She was a paraplegic patient of Rudy Wells whom he had recruited for a new type of bionic implants.
My favorite ones is with the Maskatron robot, the Fembots, Bigfoot, Doomsday is tomorrow and the death probe episodes 😎
Fun Fact..When they filmed Jaime or Steve characters jumping up onto something they were actually stepping off it and reversed the film to give the effect. By slowing the film where their Bionic limbs were being used was another gimmick and they found by instead showing them running fast etc speeding up the film looked silly. In Godzilla films they over speed up the camera during shooting so when it played normally the suit actors movement looked more natural and massive destroying miniatures on set. During each series more Bionic characters were revealed including Bigfoot, the dog Max, and actor Monte Markum as the Seven Million Dollar Man character before Lee Majors Austin. In one episode of the Bionic Woman a Jaime look alike used a drug to give the imposter super strength and of course Wagner-Majors did each of their dopplegangers. Indeed Tina Louise the last living cast member of Gilligans Island also played her own look alike in one episode as did Bob Denver and Jim Backus but they played their imposters as Gilligan-Mr. Howell. Even when those like Wager were the lead in their own series it was rare that they had pay parity with others male leads on different series even a spinoff. When they did exceed their male counterparts those that did like Lucille Ball on her two series after I Love Lucy had star power-popularity to demand more. Like many series both hinted at adult relationships and liaisons for single characters but never showed a morning after moment or leaving and definitely not in bed on TV..
Wow, can you babble! 😏
To @James..Thanks hope you learned something..😀
Monte Markum Is not his name. It's Monte Markham.
Jamie Sommers was super cool, Im glad her character survived to have her own show. Too bad they both Steve and Jamie didnt have more crossovers
I was a teen when Bionic Woman came out...Man oh MAN, I had such crush on Ms Wagner...She was such a hottie.. Well, I'm 60 now and she's 75, so if she's single, I think it's 'doable' lol.
Lindsay Wagner actually got paid more than Lee Majors. She was an Emmy winner for her role, they gave her a doll for her character. Lee demanded a doll as well and higher pay, as he felt she spun off his series.
Thanks for this info! Which episode of the show appealed to you the most?
My favorite episodes were Doomsday is tomorrow.... where she fights an AI computer named Alex7000.
One of our favorites too, you've got fine taste! What other types of video would you like to see?
Here's an interesting concept, what if you did a video which takes elements of tv shows and movies about events portrayed in them, and matches them with events that have practically occurred to a tea many years in the future...that would certainly get you tons of viewers.
Loved her in The Paper Chase.
One of our favorites too, you've got fine taste! What other types of video would you like to see?
Yes loved her in Paper Chase as well. Lindsey can easily pass for Ann Bancroft's blond daughter. Two very graceful women IMO. ❤🙏
I loved the bionic woman, once she came on the scene I was hooked. Sorry Lee Majors, don’t think I ever watched the six million dollar man again once Lindsay Wagner got her own show.
There are some pretty glaring discrepancies regarding the information being divulged here. "Bionic Ever After" anyone?
Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. What other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
I had no idea Sandra Bullock was part of the bionic series! 😊

All these kinds of channels use wrong people in the pictures they show. 6 mins. in they are showing Linda Carter who played Wonder Woman.
What I never understood was why she was not called or referred to as the 6 Six Million dollar Woman
As Oscar Goldman said in "Welcome home Jamie" , her parts we smaller and so cost less 😉
Those 8Track tape days 1973-79 on tv
My two favorite shows ever!
Wrong. ABC canceled the show and NBC picked up it's last and worst season with Max the DOG.
Brains and empathy over beauty or brawn 👍 I think helped me in my pre teens to see her and wish our kids now could see such an ideal
Back in the 70s I had a mayger crush on Lindsey Wagner ❤
Happy birthday pretty lady 🎂🎁❤🎉
I loved the series, but her pairing with Maxmillion was the best!
Well said, we strongly concur! Thank you for watching our content and for sharing your thoughts. What other types of video would you like to see?
I am very lucky I own this series of the bionic woman and the movies also💯👍📺
Who the hell was that blonde comedian? That’s not Lindsay Wagner nor did she have any affiliation with the $6 million man or the bionic woman, so why would she put in there?
Loved the character so much!
Your facts are wrong about salaries. Lindsay Wagner was paid significantly more than Lee majors -- it was a huge deal in 1976 and covered in the media extensively -- and Lee Majors threatened to quit his show over being paid less. His resentment over it still exists to this day. In fact, before Lindsay signed on to play Jaime Sommers, the Six Million Dollar Man was on the brink of cancellation due to low ratings. It was only the addition of Wagner that made both shows hits. As well, the ratings of he Bionic Woman were higher than Six Mill for a significant portion of its run. Shocked that a facts based channel like this would have so many facts wrong.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing this info! What other types of video would you like to see on our channel?
Lovely piece ruined by several incorrect facts ...
As a kid, I wanted to see a crossover with other TV shows. I would have liked to have seen a Wonder Woman or an Isis crossover.
There's a limited series comic book with Wonder Woman and the Bionic Woman.
Uh... FactsVerse. Yeah. I did catch the scene where you are talking about Lindsay Wagner and yet show Lynda Carter (Wonder Woman) being interviewed.
Be.
Careful.
The 70s was the last of feminine women.
Thanks for watching! We're glad to know that you love our video. Have a great Thanksgiving Day!
Love this show the bionic woman and the six million dollar man and of course max i still watch this today kym
Ok dude you need to get your facts right before you do it
My favorite is when Jamie and Air Max the dog 🐶🐕
One of our favorites too, you've got fine taste! What other types of video would you like to see?
I love Lindsay no matter what. One interview I read she said it was just too exhausting and she was glad the series was over.
She was fabulous in several movies, two of which: She Woke Up, Two Worlds of Jenny Logan, etc.
Beautiful words, thank you for your message for Lindsay. We love her too ♥
She play the mother to Billy Graham, The calling of Billy Graham
or was the Early years of Billy Graham
As an 11 year old boy, she drove me nuts. I was in love with her.
Hermosa Lindsay "Jaime Sommers" Wagner; la actriz más bella de estudios Universal, de Hollywood y de Estados Unidos; Argentina te ama ❤
Those 8Track tape days 1975-79
When they brought the 2 together for the movies.
It would be a whole lot nicer to have her 'voice over' in addition to yours! Just saying!
She's was great has the(Bionic woman)
Lindsay Wagner aka Jaime Sommers The Bionic Woman was Totally Awesome! Switching TV Networks from ABC To NBC Should of really gave her more Independent Spotlight and along with her personal stunt performances even just as much and even at that more $$$. Missed seeing Lee Majors aka Steve Austin Six Million Dollar Man But You have to break all Spinoff ties from the main Shadow and Do It on your own! Why the Series Couldn't do at least another Season will always be a Mystery Although TV Comedies at that 1970s time did Unfortunately wipe out a lot of Sci-Fi Shows, I do know that prior to The Bionic Woman, Wagner was scratched up in a car accident leaving a minor scar on her upper lip in which didn't affect her looks wise one single bit! Period! I was glad that at least Richard Anderson aka Oscar Goldman and Martin E Brooks aka Dr. Rudy Wells was able to Jump Back and Forth ABC and NBC Network Ships to have completed both Bionic Woman and Six Million Dollar Man Final Season Episodes! The Three Bionic Reunion Movies from the Late 1980s to Mid 1990s With Both Wagner and Majors was pretty Cool and was glad to have it in my SMDM DVD Collection! Thank-You! For sharing and God Bless!
Absolutely! We feel the same way. Thank you for sharing your sentiments and for watching our content. What other types of video would you like to see on Facts Verse?
Imagine telling a taxpayer that the government spent millions of your tax dollars to build super humans and give dogs bionic parts. I suspect that wouldn’t go over to well.
