OhmygoshSQUEE!
Sep. 25th, 2014 03:52 pmSo in my last batch of Amazon stuff I finally broke down and got season 4 of The Six Million Dollar Man. And so far, to my pleasure, I haven't found any duds. The only instances of not liking Steve's attitude are the two episodes I already knew about and had seen before. Maybe, hopefully, those are actually the only instances.
Meanwhile, I can't see why season 4 is bashed so much. Aside from those two jerkiness issues, season 4 seems to be just fine. I wonder if people don't like it because it seems less cheesy than past seasons, but on the other hand I've heard people say the plots are more ludicrous this year. So far I haven't really seen anything that seemed such, although I have a string of complaints about The Return of Bigfoot two-parter (which I won't air here right now).
I'm mainly here to squee over Oscar, and his and Steve's friendship. In an episode we saw last night, Steve is rushing off with some nitro trying to stop a fire at an oil well. There's a small explosion and the fire is still going, and Oscar thinks that the bad guys have killed Steve. **hugs Oscar.** He's very visibly shaken and devastated.
I was disappointed that they didn't show a squee reunion, but I was overjoyed and thrilled that in the epilogue, Oscar admits to Steve how horrified and upset he'd been, even saying he thought his (Oscar's) heart had stopped when he heard that blast. Oscar doesn't often actually speak of his feelings (even though they're obvious), but when he does, it's so squeeable. Steve's response was that if Oscar's heart ever did stop, Steve would see that he got a bionic replacement so he could keep on living for a long time yet. Awwww.
I love those two, so much. And Oscar and Jaime are adorable too.
