EVE OF DESTRUCTION
The Bionic Woman must stop the maniacal supercomputer ALEX 7000 from detonating a secret weapon that will end all life on Earth!

This two part episode is pretty much perfect in its original form. But I wanted to try something new creatively, so I have added the classic protest song Eve of Destruction to three scenes to try to add another/different layer of drama. This idea was directly inspired by one of my favorite tv shows as a teen, The Greatest American Hero "Operation Spoilsport", which incorporated the same song in its doomsday storyline.

BONUS FEATURE: The Six Million Dollar Man must save a Soviet Scientist from an earthquake ravaged secret underground base before it is destroyed by a nuclear bomb! This is the original inspiration for "Doomsday is Tomorrow" and prequel to THE DEATH PROBE!

You know as well as I that only "Buffy" is the greatest television show ever!!!!!:)
 
I see someone has uploaded the bonus features from the Bionic Woman season dvds, though the aspect ratio appears to be messed up.... but I thought I would post them for you to enjoy....

 
For those of you not educated on the world of Steve and Jaime, here is a Crash Course.... lol

 
Very exciting news for this old fart!!!

As I have written here and in other threads, Dynamite Comics SEASON SIX comic of the SMDM is wonderfully brilliant.

Today, comes news they are going to do the same for BW, and produce a SEASON FOUR comic! :whoo:

LOL Going through some old files and downloading what is still online. Most likely gonna PM you about some other edits. Thanks for your work and effort
 
A shout out of THANKS to @drvrjon for posting a review.

Eve of Destruction was inspired by an episode of THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO entitled "Operation: Spoilsport", as I love the gravitas Barry McGuire's classic protest song brings to the story.

Hopefully, Universal will one day soon release both The Six Million Dollar Man and Bionic Woman on Blu Ray (it has been released in Europe) for North America, and I can go back and rebuild my beloved CYBORG edits to make them faster, stronger... better than they were before!!! 😄
