Title: Modernized, dark, violent, angst Bionic Woman
Review: This new Bionic Woman is ok and even a little memorable. I predict it will not last on tv very long. Its too well made, dark, violent, and angst-ridden (The daughter character helps amp that up). The new Jamie Somers is rugged and easy on the eyes (then again so was the original). The pilot sets up the series well - hinting at some baddies. I think several of the female characters, including a stalwart rugged actress from Battlestar Galactica, look way too much like mannequins. They have far too much makeup on and one scene, bizarre thick red lips. The stylized female cat fight on the roof in the rain was engaging - but overall I think the show needs a little estrogen NOT more testosterone.At one point the Bionic Woman says "You made me a soldier". I can see this series going that way but I urge the director to keep Jamie a lady and a caring mom too.
