I do not know if back then they had to worry about every frame, since all we could do was pause a blurry VHS tape to spot details. Now they would just CGI them in.

The Six Million Dollar Man (or was it The Bionic Woman?) had… two? backdoor pilots. One where some guy could learn anything by programming it directly into his brain, but it only lasted for like 24 hours.
