Isaiah Washington might get a Bionic Woman spinoff (?!) - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Brian Damage · 10-03-2007, 09:52 PM

He hasn't even made his debut on the show yet (he starts tonight at 8 on NBC), but Isaiah Washington says that NBC has already said they might want to spinoff his Bionic Woman character because "there's been some relative excitement about my presence."

First of all, who the hell talks like that about themselves? There's been excitement about his presence? Um, OK. Second, Washington is only slated to do five episodes so far, and I think that if NBC really thought he was great then they would want to sign him to a full-time contract on Bionic Woman before taking the chance of spinning him off on his own show.

On the show, Washington plays Antonio Pope, a Special Forces member who is assigned to help and teach Jaime Sommers about all things bionic. Hopefully he can teach her to be more interesting than Katee Sackhoff.

The ratings have to hold up for the original first. It fell over 25% in Adults 18-49 for the 2nd episode.

Bionic Woman can have him for all I care, never really liked his character on Grey's anyway.

I have to admit I find it funny that of all NBC shows to give him a spot on, they decide to give him the one that is a remake of a camp classic that is beloved amongst gay men in their 30's and 40's, rofl!!! That's like putting Michael Richards on Everybody Hates Chris or something.

In all truthfulness, I thought people were too harsh on Isaiah, but that he does need to censor what he says in interviews, his ego is as bad as Kanye's.
