Lindsay Wagner: The original superhero

Lindsay Wagner has mixed emotions about the female superheroes populating movies and TV today. She, of course, rose to fame as The Bionic Woman, her Emmy-winning role from the mid-'70s.
"It's great that finally women are allowed to be heroes," she said. "But I also am concerned when I see a lot of the modern-day idea of a woman superhero is just yesterday's male hero in some tights."
Wagner's star-making turn as sci-fi action heroine Jamie Sommers was a spin-off of The Six Million Dollar Man. Both characters were re-built after accidents with bionic implants. "We're hopefully getting used to technology so we don't have to be mesmerised by it and get back to story," she said.
The 66-year-old actress co-stars with Ed Asner in Love Finds You in Valentine, airing on the Up network.
