The main character, 'Bionic-1', was a machine-enhanced human being using bionic technology, much like The Six Million Dollar Man. On a vacation in the Himalayas, Bionic-1 and his family were testing out some new ski equipment. They were attacked by aliens and during the battle, in which Jack revealed his abilities to his children for the first time, there was an avalanche and the Bennetts were all buried alive under radioactive snow. All, but Jack (whose bionics made him immune to the radioactivity), were thrown into paralytic comas. Unsure how to save them, Bionic-1 brings the family to Professor Sharp's lab. Sharp deduces that giving everyone the bionic treatment would cure them of the radioactivity too. Each family member was given a specific bionic power, and they formed a team named Bionic Six.That's right. It's none other than Bionic Six.
You have to love a theme song that emphasizes the family element. Not to mention the team itself was a walking promotion for the joys of adoption. And... robotic... ape... creation? Yeah, that kind of got away from me. But still, we have time for the bread and butter of any good fantasy cartoon: the transform/power-up sequence. And seriously, just how much metal was Bionic-1 pimping inside of himself?
And because Firday is still fun day, let's also add: reason number eight that I don't own a webcam...
