Part one
coltras354 October 2023
Steve's bionic legs are crushed in an attempt to sow mayhem between two families of organized crime. During his rehabilitation, he repeatedly sees an unconscious Jaime Sommers, but he is repeatedly assured that he is simply delusional. An irate Steve violently confronts Oscar Goldman and Dr. Rudy Wells, prompting them to yield the truth to Steve: Jaime did die, but the intercession of Dr. Michael Marchetti resuscitated her through experimental cryogenics. She has suffered a complete and perhaps permanent loss of memory. It is feared that if they attempt to revive Jamie's memories, she may suffer more pain. Therefore, Steve is reintroduced to Jamie simply as "the other bionic human." Steve is also emotionally wrenched as he sees his fiancée fall in love with Dr. Marchetti who admits that he is attracted to his pretty patient, thus creating sort of a love triangle between the three.

The bionic woman returns after being killed off in previous episodes- the producers cleverly thought up a way to bring her back via cryogenics. It's a good start to part one, has a good performance by Lee Majors - he also sings - and a sometimes can be emotional. It's thoughtfully written.
