One of the greatest and most influential sci-fi shows of all time. Known throughout the world, it even introduced a word permanently into the popular lexicon - 'bionics' - how many shows can you say that about?? Pure 70's cornball fun, I loved it and owned practically every single SMDM toy. Wish they'd come out with a movie.

The concept was original at that time, not like the illogical fictions of any time. The lead actor's charisma was inexplicably great.

I guess it was alright. I always wondered what kind of parts they used to put him together with.

Entertaining show for a younger crowd. Not the worst way to kill an hour in front of the TV. The guy was essentiaslly an electric Swiss Army Knife on legs. Fun and harmless.

This show was fun, action-packed. Would most likely find it cheesy today but back then, it was top of the line.

Show a guy running in slow-motion and everyone will believe he's running bionically fast! (Only in America)

Please. Lee Majors was an actor who could convey one emotion: bewilderment over what he had to do next. Totally implausible premise to this show, ridiculous scripts, second-rate production values and bargain basement special effects. A real winner. The audience for this show was retarded 7 year olds who evidently grew up to be retarded adults, if you read some of the posts here.

Lee Majors starred as Colonel Steve Austin in the now cult classic The Six Million Dollar Man. For the uninitiated, Austin is an astronaut who is severely injured in a crash landing (ie she's breaking up, she's breaking up). A secret government agency (lead by the straight faced, ultra serious Oscar Goldman who is perfectly portrayed by Richard Anderson) decides that they can rebuild him with bionics, a merger of man and machine, resulting in artificial legs, one arm, and an eye (though the show violated contemporary political correctness by testing on animals, creating a bionic dog). Austin earns his six million dollar price tag by saving the world from all sorts of bad guys and the good intentions of friendly space aliens. How could anyone resist, and I couldn't live without this show back in the day. Certainly the fact that the Apollo space program was still popular helped make the series a success. Finally, the now immortal sound effects when Austin went bionic... na na na na na... are still part of the common lexicon. The bottom line is that The Six Million Dollar Man doesn't really deserve four stars, but I am obligated due to my youthful addiction. The series was originally broadcast from 1974 to 1978.

I use to LOVE this program. I was really hooked. I didn't like The Bionic man as well as the Bionic Women. She was sexyier I think anyway. The shows were great. They had all knds of great story lines and great guest stars too. Hey lets face it. I was hooked then and I'm still hooked now. lol

I watched the reruns a few years back, and though it didn't have the same appeal as when I was little, I still thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a guilty pleasure I guess. When I was a kid, though, I was in front of the t.v. the second it came on and didn't leave til the credits were over. NOW, I just wish they would put it out in the "Complete Season" format on DVD. It's not on any current channels that I can find. It used to be on the sci-fi channel, but in a butchered up version that removed several minutes out of each episode to allow for even more annoying commercials. In other words, more of the almighty buck. At a time when just about every t.v. show's first season hits DVD before the camera is even cold on the last episode, I would think a popular show like this would receive the same treatment.

although somewhat dated now this was another one of those sci-fi/action shows i couldn't resist. still vividly remember the episodes about the bionic "bigfoot" and those out of control robot machines that looked like tanks. can anyone who remembers this show ever forget that classic sound effects used when steve austin whenever he jumped or used his eye. loved show

Hey a good show for a twelve year old who wanted to be bionic just like Steve Austin. And there was Jamie as the Bionic Woman...what else could you ask for?

I loved this as a kid and yes I did have the doll that you could roll back his skin to see the bionics on. I saw an episode not too long ago and I just don't think it aged very weel though. Lee Majors was no Lawerence Olivier but he was charming and served the roll well. There was a heck of a lot worse out in the seventies so I'll give it a three.

After a horrible accident Steve Austin was left without legs and one arm, but Oscar Goldman utters the famous line,"We can re-build him, we have the technology". And so the Six Million Dollar Man was born. A bargain at that price. He could pick up really heavy stuff with that bionic arm, but I never could understand why it didn't screw up his human back. And he could run super fast with those bionic legs, but they always showed those scenes in slow motion. Slow motion to similate fast speed, go figger. The plots were not too bad and they had some good guest stars, but when you look back at the clothes we all wore, it is pretty funny.

I loved and still love this show. You can keep your less active Bionic Woman, give me Steve Austin and a good old fashioned bionic slow mo fight anyday. Lee Majors was great as the cyborg hero and come on, what guy my age, did not have a Steve Austin doll as a kid. The doll and the show were better hands down over Bionic Woman.

The Six Million Dollar Man is an pretty cool show starring Lee Majors, as he plays this cyborg-type guy who is unstoppable, and can't be beat, but his disugise is so trciky and so good, that he looks like a normal person, although he's really like the terminator.
