Yeah, he was a stiff piece of plastic that made a grating noise when you moved his stiff joints.   I think I remember he had a skin on one arm that could be pulled back to reveal the bionic mechanism of the arm, though I could be wrong about that.   I'll have to google it.  I do remember the bionic eye peephole.

And also the Holy Ghost.  Nobody knows what the fuck the deal is with that guy.  He's like the rabbit guy in Donnie Darko, only less interesting.  Terrible character, poorly developed.

I remember I loved The Six Million Dollar Man.   I haven't see the show in over 30 years but I bet it kinda sucks.

He's kind of a lazy actor IMO.  He has talent but I get the impression that he has never had the work ethic to match.  He's coasted on natural charisma through most of his career.

I've had this concept for an 80's-set TV show that consists entirely of glamorous people in glamorous settings chopping up lines of cocaine and snorting cocaine.  No plot, no character development —  just one hour of uninterrupted cocaine use.   It would be hypnotic, and the most 80's thing ever conceived.

John Taylor never got the credit he deserved.   I've always paid attention to the basslines in Duran Duran.   Very stylish, catchy, and memorable stuff.    I think people overlooked Taylor because he wasn't as fancy as Mick Karn, but who is?  Nobody really, at least not in pop music.

Gore is passe.   You want box office dynamite, The Secret Sex Lives of the Nazgul is your ticket.
