The Six Million Dollar Man

39Leave it.

The jump is a blast for a kid, and the body belongs to the agency that rebuilt it.

The review

A test pilot, also an astronaut, is badly hurt and a government agency rebuilds him with machine parts. Then the missions start. The stories stay simple. What a boy remembers is the slow-motion strength, which is how the show was built to land. Alongside that sits the harder part: the repaired body is a contract. The parts answer to the people who paid for them.

I would not ban it and I would not call the pilot a model. The old job was real, and flying had a real risk, and then the risk changed owners. Watch one with a child and say the second half out loud before the next leap. Strength that looks like a gift and answers to an office is still rented. The fun can stay. The lease should not be invisible.

The glance

Household and Piety and Temperance and Stewardship are the thin ones.

Is a marriage, a parent, or a child a real life here, or just a prop?

X-Men: The Animated Series

58 instead of 39

Orange Is the New Black

Sometimes it tells the truth about a hidden place. Often it sells the pain. Adults, sparingly.

The review

A prison is a real public fact, and most living rooms had managed not to look at the women in it. The early episodes look. Backstories arrive as a moral claim: a person is not the worst day the state recorded.

The show learned, as Netflix learned, that a hidden place can be a library of twists. If you watch it, watch a woman trying to get home to a child, and turn it off when the place becomes a quip. Adults. Not a binge. A binge is how the hiding continues in another costume.
