The Bionic Woman

* When the series changed networks midway through its run, Richard Anderson and Martin E. Brooks became the first actors in history to play the same characters on two different TV series on two different networks.

* This series introduced Maximillion, the bionic dog.

* The cancellation of "The Six Million Dollar Man" (1974) resulted in this series being canceled as well.

* When she first appeared, in "The Six Million Dollar Man" (1974), the original bionic woman was also intended to be a "Jamie". Unfortunately, Lindsay Wagner mis-spelled the name "Jaime" during a special effects sequence involving a fake tree, and the studio decided to change the name rather than reshoot the scene.

* The characters Jaime Sommers and Steve Austin (from "The Six Million Dollar Man" (1974)) were ranked #19 in TV Guide's list of the "25 Greatest Sci-Fi Legends" (1 August 2004 issue).

* Sally Field and Stephanie Powers were also considered for the role of Jaime Sommers.

* Jaime's body is reconstructed with parts similar to Steve Austin's, albeit smaller. The actual cost of rebuilding her is not revealed but is said to be less than the $6 million that it cost to rebuild Austin.

* Lindsay Wagner's first appearance in "The Six Million Dollar Man" episode was supposed to be her last role honoring her contract with Universal. Public demand meant that she carried on with playing the role.
