Bionic Woman (2007 TV series)
Bionic Woman is an American science fiction television drama that aired in 2007, which was created by David Eick, under NBC Universal Television Group, GEP Productions, and David Eick Productions. The series was a re-imagining of the original television series, "The Bionic Woman", created by Kenneth Johnson, which in turn was based upon the novel "Cyborg" by Martin Caidin and its TV adaptation "The Six Million Dollar Man", retaining its forebears' premise while taking on a more contemporary setting.
