To understand "The Bionic Woman" heroine Jaime Sommers, you first have to get on board with "The Six Million Dollar Man." The young tennis star turned partially cyborg superhero was first introduced on "The Six Million Dollar Man" in the show's second season as a female counterpart to the series' male bionic hero. Jaime, the show told viewers, was severely injured in a skydiving accident, but cutting-edge technology allowed her to not only live through it, but also gain new skills. She had extra-strength hearing, superstrength, and the ability to run at top speeds, all of which came in handy for her new life as a schoolteacher-slash-spy.

Having been popular in the 1950s, the concept of the anthology TV series had become kind of un-hip by the 1980s. Dramarama, CBS Summer Playhouse, Faerie Tale Theater and Amazing Stories were about as interesting as it got. It seems that now, however, networks just can’t get enough of the anthology format – and, since it is changing the face of television, it is hardly surprising that a growing roster of well-known names are climbing aboard the bandwagon. The latest entry on the list is an as-yet unnamed supernatural anthology series – originating from Eva Longoria‘s UnbeliEVAble Entertainment label – now in development at NBC.
