The Six Million Dollar Man: Season 2
From The Bionic Wiki
[edit] Overview
The first full-length season of The Six Million Dollar Man ran for 22 episodes during the Fall of 1974 - Spring of 1975. In this season the sounds used for bionics would be standardized and the show intro would see its biggest revision, bringing it to its most familiar form.
A good twenty seconds longer, the new intro struck a different tone from its predecessor. Notably, Oscar now addresses his audience as "Gentlemen," the famous "wireframe" graphics are first seen, Oliver Nelson's score dominates the final stretch, and the final freeze frame used for the show title is more centered and better illuminated, and would become the standard title for the show from then on (a vestige of the original is seen in the end titles, superimposed over the Season One freeze frame for all five seasons).
Replacing producers Sam Strangis and Donald R. Boyle would be Lionel E. Siegel and Joe L. Cramer.
Recurring characters introduced would be Barney Miller, Kuroda, Audrey Moss, Oscar's secretaries Julie Farrell and Peggy Callahan, Steve's stepdad Jim Elgin and most importantly, Jaime Sommers.
Jaime's apparent death near the season's end sparked a fan outcry, and combined with high ratings and favorable press this led to a return for Lindsay Wagner to the role in the following year, bringing many changes.
