[08:35] // GINGA net.news FLASH // · · David Eick, executive producer of SCI FI Channel's original series Battlestar Galactica, will reinvent another 1970s SF show: The Bionic Woman, which he will executive-produce with film writer Læta Kalogridis for SCI FI's parent TV network, NBC, Variety reported. · ·
[08:35] // GINGA net.news FLASH // · · Eick told the trade paper that the new series will be "a complete reconceptualization of the title. We're using the title as a starting point, and that's all." · ·
[08:36] // GINGA net.news FLASH // · · Instead of focusing on terrorism and militarism, the new Bionic will explore the role of professional women in contemporary society and how they juggle their various roles. · ·
[08:37] <@SpeedRcrX> Oh great. So we get to see s[BLEEP]t like "Bionic Murphy Brown does Paperwork"
[08:37] <@SpeedRcrX> Oscar> GET ME THOSE TPS REPORTS RIGHT NOW
[08:38] <@SpeedRcrX> Bionic Woman> Right sir!!! *Bionic noise CH CH CH CH CH CH paperwork goes flying everywhere*
[08:38] <@SpeedRcrX> Male Co-worker> s[BLEEP]t, she's good!
[08:38] <@SpeedRcrX> Bionic Woman> HA HA! Take THAT Glass Ceiling!
[08:39] <@SpeedRcrX> Man this is such bulls[BLEEP]t
[08:39] <IrnChef_Jovian> What's wrong, Haruka-san?
[08:39] <@SpeedRcrX> You don't get it, do you, Mako
[08:39] <@SpeedRcrX> This s[BLEEP]t is a defilement of the spirit of Bionicism
[08:40] <Mizunomics01> Is that even a word?
[08:40] * Mizunomics01 looks in the dictionary. "No, I don't think so."
[08:40] <@SpeedRcrX> Man, Ami-chan you're not getting it.
[08:40] <flame_SNIPER> She doesn't get lots of things.
[08:40] <Mizunomics01> ...
[08:40] <IrnChef_Jovian> Hey don't pick on her!
[08:44] <flame_SNIPER> Mako-chan, are you ok?
[08:44] <@SpeedRcrX> You kids don't realize how badass the Bionic shows were back in the day.
[08:45] <Mizunomics01> Hmph, I never expected someone as refined as Haruka-san to be so enamored of crass entertainment designed solely for the gratification of the simple-minded.
[08:46] <@SpeedRcrX> It was like the Hercules and Xena of their time, Bionic man and Woman were
[08:46] <IrnChef_Jovian> Hercules and Xena.... wow
[08:46] * IrnChef_Jovian LOVEd them, especially Xena!
[08:46] <flame_SNIPER> Did you love Xena the show or Xena the person :P
[08:46] <IrnChef_Jovian> Huh?
[08:47] <@SpeedRcrX> LAwless was HAWT.... :r Lucy Lawless
[08:47] <Mizunomics01> Are you drooling?
[08:47] <Mizunomics01> She's DROOLING over a TV character?
[08:47] * Mizunomics01 is having a hard time with this
[08:47] * IrnChef_Jovian can see why
[08:48] <flame_SNIPER> Was that to Haruka-san or Ami-chan?
[08:48] <IrnChef_Jovian> Huh?
[08:48] <@SpeedRcrX> But anyway, yeah, WTF Eick, bionic powers do not a sitcom or Ally McBeal make
[08:48] <@SpeedRcrX> they make soldiers and spies fighting EVIL in the dark corners of the world
[08:49] <@SpeedRcrX> and taking out the occassional sasquatch
[08:49] <Mizunomics01> There is no scientific evidence to support the existence of so-called sasquatches.
[08:49] <@SpeedRcrX> It was an alien
[08:49] <Mizunomics01> Oh.
[08:50] <Mizunomics01> That's different then
[08:50] <@SpeedRcrX> Man those shows rocked, I'm gonna slam some Yebisu and crawl up in a ball in a corner somewhere in the fetal position and shiver hoping someone smacks Eick with a cluestick
[08:50] * @SpeedRcrX is away: :<
[08:51] <Mizunomics01> Really, such passion for a work of fiction
[08:51] <Mizunomics01> My opinion of Haruka-san is changing.
[08:51] <IrnChef_Jovian> I know...
[08:51] <flame_SNIPER> Hah, have you ever seen her ROOM?
[08:52] <IrnChef_Jovian> God... it must be so elegant, filled with gleaming memorabilia from a life spent on the track, on the racecourses.... in concerts... so lush, so elegant...
[08:52] <flame_SNIPER> It's a Toxic WASTE dump
[08:52] <IrnChef_Jovian> ...EH!?
[08:52] * flame_SNIPER is away: heheheh you guys have a LOT to learn it seems
[08:53] <Mizunomics01> Apparently so.
[08:53] * Mizunomics01 is away: While the premise may be patently absurd, the idea of bionic modifications is not.... hmmm.
[08:53] * IrnChef_Jovian is away: Ami-chan, wait for me!
