Just saw the pilot ep of Bionic Woman (yes...it was leaked) and LOVED it. It was SOOO awesome!! Starbuck kicks bionic butt!!

This is a re-imaginging of the series. Basically
Spoiler:
this man named Dr. Anthros created these machines that have been dubbed Anthrocites. Initialy created to help gulf war amputees he then realized the soldier aspect. The anthrocites make people stronger.

It's unsure how many test subjects there have been but there was at least one other woman before Jaimee Sommers, that being Sarah Corvus (BSG's Katee Sackoff).

Sarah was a soldier and initially had both her arms and legs and 1 eye done....but it seems she's had more done (her other eye and a boob job ). She's a rogue who went awol from the program and loves killing things....she's also a bit responsable for Jaimee ending up the way she is.

Sarah purposly hit the car that she and her boyfriend (Dr. Will Anthros, son of the inventor of the anthrosites) were in nearly killing them both (but only killing Jaimee's unborn child...DOH! ).

Will of course saved her by giving her the bionic implants (2 legs, 1 arm, 1 eye and 1 ear). Initially Jaimee didn't want anything to do with the program. But after a rooftop battle with Sarah, she changed her mind. So she'll be working with the government to stop Sarah and other baddys.

Jaimee has a younger sister named Becca (their mom died of cancer) who was deaf in the pilot (she has since been recast and they've dropped the deaf angle).

Will Anthros father is also somewhat demented (he was in jail but then released) and another bad guy along with the guy who plays the Chief in BSG.


The cast is:
Michelle Ryan: Jaime Sommers
Miguel Ferrer: Jonas Bledsoe (director of the Bionics program, Jaime's boss)
Molly Price: Ruth Treadwell - another person who works in Area 41 (their HQ )
Will Yun Lee - Jae Kim: Another Area 41er. Former lover of Sarah Corvus
Lucy Hale (originally Mae Whitman) - Becca Sommers. Teen sister of Jaimee. She's a hacker now.

Katee Sackoff - Sarah Corvus, the "original" Bionic Woman.
Will Anthros - Jaime's boyfriend. He's a college professor when he's not giving people bionic implants.

Isaiah Washington: The name of his character has yet to be revealed but he's described as "outsider with a mysterious agenda" with the power to either help Jaime or bring her down.

This series premiers Sept 26th at 9pm on NBC.
