Battlestar Galactica actors...go BIONIC! :-)

Part of the fun of watching The Six Million Dollar Man (1973 - 78) and The Bionic Woman (1976 - 78) is seeing the vast number of actors from Battlestar Galactica (1978 - 79) and Galactica: 1980 (1980) appearing in various guest star roles. Appearing throughout both bionic series (including the reunion movies) are Battlestar Galactica stars Laurette Spang (Cassiopeia), Terry Carter (Colonel Tigh), Herbert Jefferson, Jr. (Lt. Boomer), John Colicos (Baltar), Anne Lockhart (Lt. Sheba), Jack Stauffer (Captain Bojay) and George Murdock (Dr. Salik).

Other familiar faces from the Battlestar Galactica universe who "go bionic" (often appearing in several episodes, playing different characters) include: Rick Springfield, Lew Ayres, Britt Ekland, Bruce Glover, Paul Fix, Christine Belford, Simon Scott, Lloyd Bochner, John deLancie, Christopher Stone, Denny Miller, James Olson, Arlene Martel, Robbie Rist, Lara Parker, Fred Holliday, Ron Kelly, Frank Marth, Curt Lowens, Rod Haase, Dana Elcar, Ina Balin, Ned Romero, John Hoyt, Ken Swofford, Curtis Credel, Dan Barton, Marj Dusay, William Bryant, John Quade, Carlene Watkins, Dan O'Herlihy, Red West, Peter Mark Richmond, Brock Peters, Nehemiah Persoff, Sheila DeWindt, Bob Minor, Paul Coufos, Ian Abercrombie, Richard Lynch and (possibly!)
