Is "Bionic Woman" still on the air? "Tracey de Morsella (formerly Tracey L. Minor)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Battlestar's Sackhoff Off Bionic Woman? Katee Sackhoff says her bionic days are over. by Eric Goldman
November 26, 2007 - Katee Sackhoff recently appeared at a Battlestar Galactica convention and made comments that seem to say her time on Bionic Woman is over. The report, also picked up by TV Guide, comes from a LiveJournal blog run by user RoadRunnerDM, who states that during her Q&A Sackhoff said she was done with the series. According to the report, Sackhoff did have a meeting scheduled with one of the producers after Thanksgiving "but does not expect to return to the show even if it does resume production" following the current Writers Guild strike. The blog report says that Sackhoff didn't give a specific reason for leaving the series, on which she had a recurring role as the villainous Sarah Corvus. However, the writer of the blog says that he felt Sackhoff's "thinly veiled sassy comments made it pretty apparent that there isn't a lot of love going on between her and [Bionic star] Michelle Ryan." The report notes that the last Bionic episode filmed before the strike was the eleventh and that Sackhoff said it could serve as a series finale if the show doesn't return. [Update: We contacted NBC and were told that this week's episode, the eighth one, is actually the last one that will be completed while the strike is underway]. Bionic Woman's ratings have fallen dramatically since the series debuted, making its return highly questionable. The deal Sackhoff signed with Bionic Woman this summer was for six episodes total, including the pilot. She's appeared on four episodes so far, but it's unclear if she fulfilled her initial contract and filmed two more appearances for upcoming episodes or not. http://tv.ign.com/articles/837/837555p1.html Yahoo!
