come on, get serious. this was lame ass hell. the "special effect" was shooting the scene in slow motion, thats it. the fight was crappy and unrealistic as well. this was an abomination.
I had the pleasure to meet Monte Markman and tell him how much I enjoyed his work on the SMDM. He was very gracious and appreciative as we chatted. Great guy and a fine actor.
@C B you're right. They missed a great opportunity with that idea. But then again, this was the early to mid 70's. I don't think the super team concept had caught on yet. But you are spot on. Barney would've kicked Bigfoot 's ass!!! 🤣
@@drmayeda1930 dr. M, are we watching the same show? Good two shoes Austin ripped its arm off. Barney would have shoved that same arm up big foot's butt. Lol and you know why? Because, " it's wild man it's wild!!!" Hahahahahahaha
I remember this episode! Watched it when I was 9-years old! Monte Markham was one of my favourite actors, and he was great as The Seven Million Dollar Man!
Monte Markham (never seen him so young) took his added 1 million dollar bionic investment to heart. That's some serious pummeling. Kudos to all the stuntmen.
One of the best episodes in the whole series. This is right up there with the Big Foot episodes. Actor Monte Markham was actually the one that was going to play "The Six Million Dollar Man" but the role was given to Lee Majors. I think that Major's was excellent as The Six Million Dollar Man and Markham was also very good as The Seven Million Dollar Man.
But The Eight Million Dollar Man was the best, short-lived spin-off starring Donny Most. Whenever he accomplished one of his amazing feats he would use his catchphrase "I still got it."
I would have sure liked to have seen a third installment of the seven million dollar man, with a by then stable and confident version of the Barney called upon to save Steve and Jamie.
I recently had the pleasure of watching this episode on CozyTV. I loved that battle between Steve and Barney at the end of the episode. Still great after forty years!
Thanks to the many chairs and boxes... but Majors and Markham made it very believable. And with the slo-mo, the music and reverberating sounds and images, it is a tv gem, that's undeniable!!
He died so shortly after he did the Six Million Dollar Man music that he was already dead when they needed a theme song for the Bionic Woman. That's why they went with Jerry Fielding for that show.
I never knew that Oliver “Stolen Moments” Nelson did this music. Of course, as a little kid growing up in the 70s I didn’t know anything about Oliver Nelson at that point anyway.
Six Million Dollar Man is one of those action series that fans still want to revisit after more than 40 years. The background score of 1970s flicks were excellent.
What a great episode! The bionic action was off the charts. I really wish they would have done more with Barney and used him in future episodes. Would have been great seeing them work together.
Oliver Nelson composed some great stirring incidental tracks before his sad untimely death during the making of the series in 1975. It's just a shame that over 40 years on, no one still hasn't released the complete soundtrack score of The Six Million Dollar Man on CD. Especially the ones of Oliver Nelson.
I like that, when Steve catches up with Barney and grabs his arm, all Steve does is stare at him - no words needed, his face when he looks at Barney says it all. Yeah I know this show is ridiculously corny by today's standards, but I thought it was a nice / subtle touch.
Monte Markum's most memorable scene! "Its wild Steve! ITS WILD!!" Would love to see the actual band of Oliver Nelson play this song with regular drummer, bongo drummer, and excellent horn section.
I couldn't find any records of Monte Markham actually serving in the Korean or Vietnam wars. Markham was born June 21, 1935. The Korean War ended July 27, 1953, just after Markham's 18th birthday. I did see records of him serving in the Coast Guard for 10 years, but not in Vietnam.
@@FlintIronstag23 I’m still seeing on Google that he served in Korea. I can’t recall where I read that he served in Vietnam and can’t find anything to confirm that he is a Vietnam Veteran too.
Monte Markham could easily have made a spin-off or been a recurring character showing how to tame our darker side. Markham acted out what many of us 7-9 years old wanted to do with the bad guys. And what about meeting Lindsay Wagner as the Bionic Woman in a contentious episode? Wow! (I am totally geeking out.)
0:30 Pretty sweet that Monte did the flying drop kick himself, as Shatner did on occasion in classic Trek No namby pamby here- no need to call in the stuntman
The music is immensely helpful and supportive of this series. Amazing musical scores, just phenomenal. Thanks a ton for the post. Mr. Oliver Nelson, you are truly a blessing. Rest in peace and paradise Oliver Nelson. One love.
That was one of the best action sequences in the show. If only they could have been that quality. Particularly impressed with Barney lifting that guy over his head.
The bionic sounds weren't used until the 1974 episode "Day of the Robot". Even then it was originally used for the robot. The bionic sounds weren't routinely used until mid-season two in 1975.
The STUNTMEN Were really good in this show!! The 7 million dollar Man in this team up with Steve Austin was actually originally slated to play the starring lead, but Lee Majors got the role instead, I like how they later teamed them up for this Exclusive Episode!! 👍👍
The actor Monty Markham would eventually play Blanche's brother Clayton on two episodes of The Golden Girls. I also saw him on a rerun of The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Surprised this man never became a genuine household name TV icon.
@@acfran8586 Actually no! It is not this episode but another one. The episode of talking to dolphins is "Burning Bright", with William Shatner. William Shatner is the actor that plays Captain Kirk in the old Star Trek series.
I love this series, me and my elder brother play with each other i pretend I am Austin and my elder pretend he is bigfoot. Good memory from childhood time. Thank u Lee major and Lindsay Wagner for good memories. Love from Pakistan.
I loved how when Steve stopped Barney’s arm in mid swing and the sound effect of 2 steel plates colliding.Barney was still trying his best to break free of Steve’s grip and Steve didn’t budge or have to exert himself. It was like Steve was stronger. You could see Steve had a better character and disappointed with Barney.
Great clip! Classic! Great action on both Lee Majors and Monte Markham. FYI Monte Markham was the runner up for the roel of Steve Austin. Here we have the 7 Million Dollar Episodes to show both of these great actors!
Killer combo Oliver Nelson and SMDM action sequence, just as much fun to watch today as it was back in 1974!!!! Plus you have to admit awesome effects and stuntmen.
The Disharmonics and Distortion in the score is beatifully timed with Barneys descent into beserker rage. That realization on Steve's face Oh sh8 he's gonna kill them all. Brilliant
I remember when the seven million dollar man first appeared in the series. He beat Steve Austin in an arm wrestling challenge. I was like Holy Sh*t there's a new sheriff in town. 🤣🤣🤣
Hands down the best series of the 70's and one of the best ever ; the slow motion was perfectly tailored to the action sequences, the fights were slap up , the plots super and Lee Majors ideal for the lead role which he helped become iconic.
They released episodic score CDs of the Music of Joe Harnell for the Incredible Hulk and the Bionic Woman. I wish someone would release episodic soundtracks for the Six Million Dollar Man series. If they did, this particular track would be highly recommended. Sometimes, I'll pop in the DVD to this episode, to this scene just for the music and the action along with it. I would love to hear this track remastered on a CD with lots of other SMDM scores by Oliver Nelson. Thanks for posting!!!!!!
This was fun to watch Monte Markham as Barney Miller, he was truly crazed with having that much power and enjoying it immensely!!! The look on his face while he was lifting the truck was priceless and gave it a stark realism. How they pulled off the stunts in this sequence was awesome and seamless, especially throwing that poor dude through the fence, that REALLY had to smart!!!!!
Does anyone remember that Barney's(7 million) last name was Miller, but Barney Miller the cop sitcom came out then they changed the 7 million dollar man's last name to Hiller or Hilton or something like that.
Hi I help you on That Question. In part 1 of the Seven Million dollar man he want by BARNEY MILLER..in the secord part THE Bionic Criminal he when by Barney HILLER because the other name conflicted with the TV series that had the character Barney Miller!
Monte Markham should have had his own show the seven million dollar man instead that idoit abc had that moron bionic woman when the should have had the seven million dollar man starting Monte Markham and blew it as usual
Of course, it's known to most fans that Monte Markham was the ORIGINAL choice for Steve Austin but Harve Bennett thought he looked too "steely-eyed". Lee Majors had a "Gary Cooper" quality that got him the role.
Good information, I knew it... In this episode, Monte Markham feels to be stronger and more powerfull than Lee Majors : He can to lift up a guy over his shoulders, what's your opinion ?
Didier DANIEL Oh, definitely. He was clearly represented as the "new and improved" model. Unfortunately, his mental stability couldn't match his hardware so he had to be turned down.
Didier DANIEL And I think that's what cost him the role of Steve Austin. He had a lot of intensity as you can see which is why he was so convincingly unhinged. Lee Majors was more reserved which made it easier for him to "live" with the day to day routine of being bionic, he could play it down whereas Monte could not.
If I were Steve Austin one day I'd have an accident. "Crap, I don't know what happened. But now my left arm has been crushed in a printing press. Now what will we do?" Six months later. "Yeah, I don't know Oscar. That letter opener took out my other eye. What will we do?" Six months later. "I don't know how that samurai sword cut off both my ears. Thank God for bionic ears, huh?"
As a kid, it took me a minute to realize that slow motion action actually meant superhuman speed. The Incredible Hulk was like that too. Later we got "real" super speed, like in The Flash's tv show, for exemple.
50 YEAR'S AGO..........where did those years go !!!!!
Wow yes !
In a blink - Remember this episode like yesterday
And then one day you find 50 years have got behind you. No one told you when to run. You missed the starting gun.
Far, far away. Never to return.
It's been 50 years and I'm still waiting for my bionic parts to be available.

You actually got to meet him! Awesome!
"SMDM" sounds like some kind of bondage acronym....
Actually, it doesn't. You're just into being gagged n tied up freak!
I love this series even today. Foam boulders, balsa wood trees, and breakaway glass
I love how Barney doesn't even care about the mission, he's all about the ass whoopin baby!!! Bionics was like meth in the 70's
@C B I know right? Those rent-a-thugs were about to board the pain train if Stevo wasn't there.

Absolutely.
It was cancelled due to inflation.
@@elcarajo66 7 million dollars inflation. 😂
Dude was kicking @$$ left & right. He would still be out now 48 years later... That's how wild it was to him🤣🤣🤣😂😂
Actually Monte Markham was "Cyborg" author Martin Caidin's choice for the Six Million Dollar man.
WOW!!! This takes me way back. this was the show in my time. Still love it
VERY NICE that the SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN series is now being shown in the uk on Legend channel, ( freeview 41, Virgin 149, sky 148) !!!
I remember Steve asking why He cost 7 million and all he could say was ..........inflation . Best line in the series LOL
Kevin McDougall But no eye, which Oscar said was extraordinarily expensive.

He returned to the series later. And became a criminal. With his bionic powers. At full power then turned against the criminals

Always loved Monte Markham, I remember “The second hundred years” I think the show was called. And later, his narration on documentaries.
Love that clang of steel noise when the bionic arms met, genius 👌
💪💪
What a great episode! The bionic action was off the charts. I really wish they would have done more with Barney and used him in future episodes. Would have been great seeing them work together.
I always liked Monte Markham one of those actors that was not appreciated enough.
I agree. He was awesome on The Golden Girls as Blanche's gay son
Wow! Monte really picked that guy up and threw him good! 🏃♂️⚡
@@jankypop-a-matic58 As Mark Hamill's Joker would say "That's it, That's it. Pick him up and throw him good."

That's why he had to be tuned down.
bigpoppa 1967 your exactly right
I think he might have killed or hurt those men real bad if Steve hadn't been there.
...that wicked smile at 2:44, 3:15 etc
@Robert Croes which means 7 million dollar man would have destroyed the 6 million dollar man.
Without a doubt this is the best theme music used in the entire series. It just gets your blood pumping listening to it, even today 4 decades later.
Vero!!! Agreed!!!
Its wild Steve, wild! Monte Markham was a badass.

And I think that's what cost him the role of Steve Austin. He had a lot of intensity as you can see which is why he was so convincingly unhinged. Lee Majors was more reserved which made it easier for him to "live" with the day to day routine of being bionic, he could play it down whereas Monte could not.
Thanks for explain to me the reason....I think like you, Lee is more reserved... For me, Lee is the perfect choice for this role.
If I were Steve Austin one day I'd have an accident.

Six months later.
"I don't know how that samurai sword cut off both my ears. Thank God for bionic ears, huh?"
As a kid, it took me a minute to realize that slow motion action actually meant superhuman speed. The Incredible Hulk was like that too. Later we got "real" super speed, like in The Flash's tv show, for exemple.
This show was fantastic.it actually inspired me to design and build prosthetic limbs.landed me a job.rip man.excellent show.

I remember watching this first run as a kid. Monte Markham was excellent in this episode.
He was a little too wild IMO.
