Happy Birthday, Jonas!
Miguel Ferrer aka Jonas Bledsoe, celebrates his 54th birthday today! We hope he has a good one.
Other news in today is that realestatechannel.com is reporting that Miguel and his wife have put their Hidden Hills home on the market... for a reported $5million. Wow, 30 years ago you could just about get a Bionic Woman for that amount. The Mediterranean-style, nearly 9,800-square-foot house and its horse facilities. Hidden Hills is a high-end equestrian community that is gated and has bridle paths. The house has a breakfast area, a master-bedroom suite with three walk-in closets; a pool, a spa, a barbecue pavilion and a putting green.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
New Year.... New Bionics!
2009 launches with the news there are continued releases for the Bionic shows in Europe, specificlly in Italy and Germany. As reported in July 2008, following Lindsay and Lee Majors' appearance at RomaFest, all 3 seasons of both SMDM and The Bionic Woman are now available on DVD in Italy. Whilst this is great news, buyers should be aware there are no extras on the discs and the soundtrack is just available in Italian. Along with these releases, the 3rd and final season of The Bionic Woman will be available in Germany from the 30th of January. Our good friend Roman, says extras are unconfirmed at the moment, although there is a strong likehood there will at least a booklet of some sort included in the set. You can be assured, however, that like the previous German BW DVD releases, this one will also include a 2.0 English language soundtrack, as well as the standard 2.0 Germany one.

The pound/euro exchange rate at the moment is making the European sets slightly more expensive for UK fans and the 3rd German Bionic Woman set is currently priced at 27.99 euros on Amazon.de, but in our opinion it is well worth the few extra bucks as this is the first time the 3rd season has been avalable anywhere, with an English soundtrack.
You can view the Italian DVD sets at dvd.it here and the German 3rd season set is available via Amazon.de here...
