Another terrible Season 3 episode. Once again, Jaime is sidelined to make room for characters we don't know or care about. This time it's to find out if Max deserves his own spin-off. Spoiler alert: he doesn't. The episode consists almost entirely of people yelling things at Max: "Max, go! Max, stay! Max, don't! Max, pull it! Max, run! Max, come back! Max, Tommy fell down a well, get help!" Riveting stuff. Fortunately someone at the network had the good sense to pull the plug on the Bionic Max and His Idiot People show. They should have pulled the plug on the Season 3 writers and directors while they were at it.

A Nice Episode
prdeller5 July 2021
As an episode i quite enjoyed this but I'm not sure what the point of it was. Nice to see some different characters. Val and Bobby were likeable. Not sure if this was meant to be a possible pilot for a spin-off show (which, as adorable as Max is, could never have worked because of how limited its plot possibilities would have been) or if Lindsay Wagner was unavailable for this episode. Enjoyed it but it only barely qualifies as a Bionic Woman episode as Jaime is confined to hospital throughout and hardly appears for more than about five minutes in the entire episode. Nice just a bit pointless.
