She has two daughters. The deaf daughter mysteriously disappeared and was never seen again.
EDIT: Ok I knew it was the sister ... I have no idea why I typed daughter.

So I will go on record here that this show is likely to get trashed by many after it airs. NBC has just gone berzerk promoting this pilot. Every website seems to have a popup or banner ads splashed everywhere promoting it. So people who probably were destined to loathe it will be tuning in.
Personally, I enjoyed it and am rewatching it tonight for the true HD and surround sound which can only enhance my earlier enjoyable Unbox viewing!

I watched the pre-air version already, but will definitely tune in tonight. I'm curious to see the re-shot scenes with the new sister. This is a really crowded timeslot...crossing my fingers it does well.

I'll be tuning in. I need something to watch on Wed nights until Lost comes back.

I'm in.
I also saw the early cut, but I'm looking forward to seeing the final version and what's changed. Hopefully it's all for the better.
Out of all the new shows, I've been looking forward to this one the most.

I saw this last week and thought it was very good. Didn't know they re-shot some scenes so I'll be checking it out tonight. I counted 3 actors from BSG, by the way (including Katee).

Of all the pilots I've seen for this fall's shows, Bionic Woman was my favorite of the lot.

Ugghh. I almost want to turn this already after the cliche car wreck shot. This Bionic Woman chick isn't much to look at either. She's almost malformed. Oh well, I'll give it a chance...

Wow....bad acting and bad writing on that final "showdown".......you don't often get both on such high profile shows.
Consider my completely un-enthralled. I'll give it another week, but it was pretty blah....

Not bad.
I'll give it a few more weeks before I make a decision.

I would need to watch some more episodes to get a feel for this new version. I thought the time between her surgery and recovery went by too fast. Also, the f/x shots every so often from her bionic POV made things a little confusing.
The reference from the first Superman film was unnecessary. They do that enough as it is on "Smallville"!

I'm glad it's finally aired so we can get on with the season, the previews look like fun, a little more lightened up from the pilot.
I'm guessing the new hacker kid sister angle will come into play as Jaime needs some help here and there. I wonder if Becca will play anything but petulant in future episodes.

When Jamie was jumping from rooftop to rooftop, did the song that was playing sound like Sia, who provided the song playing over the final montage on the series finale Six Feet Under?
It didn't turn me off, but it didn't make me think I've got to watch this every week like DSM does.
Michelle Ryan reminded me of Kristen Stewart if KS was 10 years older.
