Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Lindsay Wagner won an Emmy for this role—the first for a sci-fi series actress. She beat out serious drama competition because apparently voters couldn't resist the bionic charm either.
The show emerged from Jaime's 'death' in Six Million Dollar Man, but fan outcry was so intense they resurrected her via retcon—basically inventing the 'nobody stays dead' TV rule decades before comic book adaptations made it cliché.
