FINALLY A SIXTH SEASON, SORT OF
(The Hollywood Reporter) – NBC’s The Six Million Dollar Man has been
off the air since 1978, but fans who have spent the last three and a half
decades wishing for a sixth season of the Lee Majors-starring drama will
finally see their dream come true — kind of — next year when Dynamite
Entertainment launches The Six Million Dollar Man: Season 6.
The monthly comic book picks up the continuity of the original television
series from the end of the fifth and final season, with writer James Kuhoric
promising to "bring back all the things that made it special to me back in
the day." Amongst those things, Kuhoric said, are the show’s trademark
slow motion effect sequences. He said "We went out of our way to use
the ‘Kung Fu Slow Motion’, the sound effects, and all the oddities of that
era so the comic book would feel like the original TV series.”
The Six Million Dollar Man: Season 6 will be released in comic book stores
and digitally in February 2014, in time for the series’ 40th anniversary year
(It debuted on NBC January 18, 1974).
TODAY IN HISTORY
NUMBER-ONE ON THIS DAY IN 1969
Known as the Man With the Golden ear, Don Kirshner (left) with Ron
Dante and Toni Wine
"Sugar, Sugar" was recorded by The Archies, a group of studio musicians
managed by Don Krishner with lead vocals by Ron Dante, accompanied by
Toni Wine and Andy Kim. Together they provided the voices of the Archies
using the multitracking recording technique. The song was one of the most
unexpected hits of the year and one of the biggest bubblegum hits of all
time, both in America and in Great Britain. This was partially due to the
association with the popular CBS-TV Saturday morning cartoon series.
Studio musicians on this song: Ron Frangipane – keyboard, Chuck Rainey –
bass, Gary Chester – drums, Dave Appell – guitar, Harry Amanatian – guitar,
and Ray Stevens doing the handclaps.
