NOTES: 1 For years, "Welcome Home, Jaime," has been the subject of much debate and speculation in fan communities. For much of its post-broadcast life it was believed to have aired as originally intended: on Sunday, January 11, 1976 as a Six Million Dollar Man episode. But research for the Time-LIfe 2010 Six Million Dollar Man - The Complete DVD Collection revealed evidence to the contrary.[1] Vintage promotional recordings and numerous newspaper articles indicate that "Welcome Home, Jaime," was pulled from the Six Million Dollar Man, Sunday night time slot, re-edited with Bionic Woman main/end titles and credits, issued a new production number, and pushed up to make its ABC broadcast debut on Wednesday, January 14, 1976 as the premiere episode of The Bionic Woman.[2] The 2010 DVD release of the first season The Bionic Woman went to press before this information was revealed, and thus incorrectly labels "Welcome Home Jaime" as part of The Six Million Dollar Man.
