I loved The Six
Million Dollar Man show. It was one of my faves. I wish Sci-Fi would bring back
the re-runs again.

Subject: [Sndbox] Lee Majors Guests on
"Jake 2.0"
Former Six Million Dollar Man star Lee Majors told SCI
FI Wire that his
upcoming guest appearance on UPN's similarly themed Jake
2.0 was like a
bionic jog down memory lane. Jake star Christopher Gorham
"was full of
questions, and the whole cast was very excited that I was
there, which I
found very flattering," Majors said in an interview. "And of
course a lot of
the crew brought out all their old stuff, and I think I was
signing lunch
boxes and coloring books and record albums and all kinds of
things-some
things I never knew existed. But anyway, we had a
ball."
In the Dec. 17 episode, "Double Agent," Majors plays retired NSA
agent Dick
Fox, who's pulled out of retirement to help Gorham's Jake hunt
down an
ex-KGB operative planning a deadly attack on the United States.
Major said
he spent about 10 days last month shooting his role in
Vancouver, B.C., much
of it at night and in lousy weather.
But
Majors said that he was pleased to be on a show in which the hero
acquires
superhuman powers through technology, much like his Col. Steve
Austin in
the 1970s series Six Million Dollar Man. "Actually the original
talk was
about maybe playing [Jake's] father," Majors said. "And then they
came up
with a wonderful idea of his becoming an agent that had been
retired, being
called back in for a job. And so that's the way it kind of
comes about. ...
You don't know at the end whether he was in this program
... where they
tried to create these Six Million Dollar Men-type
effective
agents."
As for another shot at Jake 2.0? "They said they
would love to have me back,
and I guess if the show does well, they'll have
me back, hopefully,"
Majors said. "I hope a lot of people watch it. It was
fun. Chris Gorham is a
super kid, and the rest of the cast, they all fit
together." Jake 2.0 airs
Wednesdays at 9 p.m.
ET/PT.
