New Release: The Six Million Dollar Man Complete Series DVD

Time Life gave TV DVD aficionados, cult classic completists and genre fans a number of reasons — we’re figuring 6 million or so — to get pumped up in the fall of 2010, when the company released one of the most eagerly anticipated classic TV DVD releases in years: The Six Million Dollar Man: The Complete Series.

The DVD set, which was initially available exclusively online at a specially branded site, was released in November and features all five action-packed seasons of the fan-favorite adventure television series, which has never before been available in the U.S. on any format.

The fourth most requested unreleased TV show, according to TVShowsonDVD.com, the 100-episode series was issued in a 40-disc package, housed in a box sporting an audio chip and eye-popping lenticular images.

In addition to the remastered hour-long episodes, the package also includes the three Six Million Dollar Man pilot movies (The Six Million Dollar Man; Wine, Women and War; and Solid Gold Kidnapping), the three made-for-TV reunion movies (The Return of the Six Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman; Bionic Showdown; and Bionic Ever After?), the never-before-released cross-over episodes with The Bionic Woman and more than eight additional hours of bonus programming.

Among the special features are new cast and crew interviews, featurettes and documentaries featuring, among others, star Lee Majors, co-star Richard Anderson and much more.

In the classic TV show, which ran from 1974 to 1978, Majors stars as a test pilot who’s left crippled after an accident. Scientists fix him up with robotic parts, giving him super strength and speed.

As a reminder, here’s a promo for the Six Million Dollar Man from the Sci Fi Channel:
