The Six Million TV Disaster Nobody Remembers!

Before legacy sequels became Hollywood’s favorite crutch, The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman were dragged out of retirement for a made-for-TV reunion movie that aimed to recapture lightning in a bottle—and mostly ended up blowing a fuse.

Was this a triumphant comeback… or a cautionary tale about leaving the past alone?    / @pulpvision
