ey up! Eastenders star Michelle Ryan will superjump into role of the new Bionic Woman. Michelle Ryan NBC has cast British Michelle Ryan as the lead in the network's redo of the 1970s action series The Bionic Woman. Ryan played the bombshell Zoe Slater from 2000 to 2005 on the BBC soap Eastenders. The Bionic Woman ran for three years, from 1976 to 1978, first on ABC then on NBC for its last season. The show, a spin-off of the hit the Six Million Dollar Man, starred Lindsay Wagner as a woman who suffers a tragic skydiving accident and is turned into a bionic crime-fighting machine. Ryan is not the only British import taking to American airwaves this fall. Sci-fi cop show Life On Mars, saucy relationship series Football Wives, gambling dramedy Viva Blackpool!, and family animal series Wild at Heart are all getting a Yankee makeover.

its a shame that the Six Million Dollar Man isn't being remade too I was going to say they could have had the uncharismatic doctor trueman, but any of her 100 ex-boyfriends will do because americans are too lazy to rerun old shows or buy dvds just this morning I had to watch an old episode of Danger mouse with a mini Ronnie Corbett! we never remake things
