the preview!
Will this show fill the ALIAS-shaped hole in my heart? I'm kind of excited, which probably means that I am a moron.

Watched a couple of those clips but couldn't find one with Michelle Ryan talking. Is she doing an American accent? Is it convincing?
(she's great in that Jekyll thingie on BBC just now)

It convinced me—I had no idea she was British until I watched her interview. My favorite comment from the site: I was named after this show, so I think it's cool that they are remaking it! My dad liked the name and spelled it just like hers. Jaime July 7 - 6:52pm PT Report Abuse

It looks deece, but I wish it wasn't so thoroughly cold and dark - I want it to have more of a sense of fun.

Also, the dramatic deaf daughter is a bit much
Somehow it reminds me of House M.D., vibe-wise & aesthetically.

I wonder if it will get killed after 7 episodes like hella NBC shows (ie Raines, which admittedly sucked, but the Goldblum! THE GOLDBLUM!).

Also with unlikely Britisher being convincingly American (xpost re. House)

For Americans, this is Michelle Ryan doing what she's famous for over here:

acting?

Acting badly in a fake-Cockney accent.

her real accent is funny! watching the vid of her talking abt it all
someone told me starbuck was in this but it is funny to see

I still find it really strange that Michelle Ryan is playing the bionic woman. It's just so random.

since they had to replace her ear you'd think they could have made it less funny than her old one
