I think she's aged much better than he has!
Maybe, though to be fair he is 10 years older than her
Plus he didn’t exactly look young in the above photo
Yep. Men also have the hair issue.
My grandma wore wigs because she was losing her hair. A few years ago talking with one of my sister in laws who cleaned their flat now and then said she was flabbergasted when she saw the white heads in her bedroom with wigs on them because she had no idea. When I was 10 she had a fake Chicago Tribune front page made with the headline Grandma flips her lid at ballgame. We were at a Cubs game and a foul ball went right over our heads. I didn't notice she lost her wig at the time, I was 8 or 9, but I remembered the white heads in her bedroom.
I embraced the skinhead thing when I started going bald about 10 years ago. I'm not saying it's for everyone, but for certain people it can really be pretty awesome. I probably look younger than I would if I had a George Costanza hairline, and doing a quick morning shave to stay evenly bald is so much quicker and easier than messing around with hair.
Again...definitely not for everyone. But at least for men, the whole "totally bald clean shaven" thing sometimes works and sometimes going totally bald can look better than managing a receding hairline. It's definitely a personal decision, but for some men I think it might be worth at least considering. If one's hair is slowly fading away, sometimes it might not be a bad idea to at least consider the option of, "you know what...since I'm balding I might as well really go bald; fuck hair."
Seriously, I thought he was 40 ish when the show came out. He can't possibly be 80 in this photo.
She is the dictionary definition of aging gracefully.
He was married to Farrah until he left to shoot a movie and she got all coked up with Ryan O’Neal and decided he was the man for her which was a VERY PUBLIC HUMILIATION.
Her career took off and he suffered a decline in roles for decades after the TV show tanked due to bad writing and shit stories.
So yeah he had a rough spot for sure and it’s affected him.
VERY PUBLIC HUMILIATION
Interestingly, the lyrics from the theme song to his show The Fall Guy references Farrah explicitly in the first line.
"Well I'm not the kind to kiss and tell, but I've been seen with Farrah"
He was good friends with Larry Hagman, from Dallas. They hung in Malibu and drank and did other stuff to excess. Larry had at least on liver transplant.
Oh totally, no doubt.
You’re not “friends” with Ryan ONeal unless you were doing shitloads of blow and having orgies all the time as Hollywood star with a pin up poster wife.
I knew Ryan and Farrah a little bit. He was legit crazy.
Dern you. Now I gotta watch it again. :)
Rosanna Arquette has a bit part as a hitchhiker party girl.
Love the cast in that film…
Ah yes, Julie Andrew showing us the hills.
People are going to be disappointed.
Just keeping it SFW. 😝
Blake Edwards was married to Julie Andrews, I guess that's how he got her to take her top off...
I'm pretty sure he's done that multiple times....
ha! nice
Wasn’t he also occasionally molesting his daughter’s friends… allegedly?
I can see that, there’s a lot of articles that come up over Tatum’s being victimized and both of her parents drug use.
She’s very clear about her sexual molestation and abuses as a child.
Which kinda brings up how Farrah died.
What a terrible way to end her legacy as such a wonderful actress and person. /r/thanksoneal should be the new /r/thanksobama.
Well to be honest she was very drug addled when she gave interviews later in life. She gave me the impression of being burned out and affected mentally. Just my opinion, could be wrong maybe it was just an act?
But that breathy voiced projection was certainly tied to her public persona.
I don’t know.
Have you ever see her appearance on the Comedy Central Roast of William Shatner? She looked like she had just gotten out of rehab, then walked next door and did the roast. It was quite noticeable.
But never smoked!
He did land that great role in the "The Night the Reindeer Died"
It’s so weird how some people lose all facial fat and go from soft to chiseled and some people get them chubby old man cheeks and go from chiseled to soft.
They both look great
She’s aged well and he looks like he’s gonna try to sell us a reverse mortgage
I had the biggest girl crush on her when I was like 9-10! 😍
Tell us more…
Seriously, she is the main reason I have long had an appreciation for gender-neutral names like Jamie, Morgan, and Sam.
I was too young to realize that when the show came out. Then, much more recently, I watched The Paper Chase. Yikes!
Adjusting for inflation, The Six Million Dollar Man now the $28.85 million dollar man.
Apparently the Bionic Woman had better health insurance as they never mention what her copay was.
In Germany she was the 7-Million-Dollar-Woman. And no, he didn't get a raise...
In France, it was the "Man worth 3 Billions" !
“…Italian lira”
7 million Deutschmark mann
In the Weimar Republic, this was just a trash can with a toaster on top
The series started in 1973 so it would be a bit higher in 2024 dollars. Still, you’d need to buy parts from a discount bin to build a bionic dude for that budget.
Indeed. Moore's law doesn't apply to healthcare.
I started in 1973, too. Sadly my value adjusted for inflation 2024 has not increased as well as the $”6 Million Dollar Man.
This picture was taken 7 years ago. Did you do the inflation adjustment from today's date or 2017?
1978 to last month. But someone pointed out that Steve Austin got his implants earlier.
It is impolite to ask a woman what her implants cost.
she's now the heptonic woman
Bullshit
You're right. The bottom picture is from May 31, 2017 .
His forehead is less wrinkled now than it was in '78
There's some ridiculous face tune or airbrushing going on in that bottom picture.
u/Spartan2470 posted a comment with the sources and if you line-up both photos side by side you can easily tell the one on Reddit has been heavily modified.

Nowadays they run in slow motion without any special effects involved.
Damn, here's your upvote.
Hey, a Trekkie! Good morning!
Victory is life!
But can they still make the jumping sound?
Lindsay Wagner is still hot.
you sure this isn't r/FuckImOld ?
Steve Austin agrees, I too fucking old
WHAT
That's not his name huh
Steve Austin is an astronaut who is seriously injured when his spaceship crashes. Handsome and athletic, Austin undergoes a government-sanctioned surgery, which rebuilds several of Steve's body parts with machine parts, making him cyborglike. When Steve recovers, his machine parts enable him to have superhuman strength and speed, as well as other powers. With these powers, Steve goes to work for the Office of Scientific Information, battling evil for the good of mankind...
Oh shit Ash's dad?
Edit: I meant Ashy Slashy
Came here to say this! Good ol' Brock Williams!
He was so great in that role, I'd totality believe they were related.
I still make that sound. Often.
I make that sound when I take the elevator up one floor in the mornings because my knees are still stiff from the previous day.
I had a pit my stomach after Jaimie “died”. 11 year old me had a crush on her.
See, celebrities? This gorgeousness beats plasticizing your face trying to keep looking "young."
edit: I neither said nor implied these folks had zero procedures done. I was promoting moderation.
They definitely have plastic surgery done it’s just good enough that you think it’s “natural”.
It’s the main thing people don’t get about plastic surgery usually you just keep looking better until you reach a tipping point but where to stop is hard once you get addicted.
There may be some plastic surgery but I think it's more likely the images have been retouched to smooth out imperfections. They both have similar effects.
That’s also very fair, hard to tell if not in person.
Of course they have both had work done, those bionic implants don’t grow themselves…
This has to be sarcasm right? Man has less forehead wrinkles in the after shot.
I guess no one else notices that the after photo has been retouched or filtered?
I met her at an airport once. My parents were way more excited than I was, but she was so friendly and cool —a trenchcoat and Chucks!—that pre-teen me decided she was better than Wonder Woman

He's still alive. He's got a cameo in The Fall Guy (2024 film) released May 3rd.
This is the only reason I’m in this thread lol. Wanted to see if he had a cameo.
he was actually pretty young when he was doing six million dollar man. Usually they look 35 years old but are 45 when they are leading men. But he really was in his early 30's. He looks good for 85.
Here he is as cowboy Heath Barkley in The Big Valley even before TSMDM.
This is just what I shouted aloud to myself lol, dude seemed oldish when I was a kid.
Jeez she aged gracefully.
They both look great. They gave us so many wonderful childhood memories, and The Fall Guy was one of my favorite shows.
I see Vanessa, but where is Artie?
Oh a fellow Warehouse 13 enjoyer!
There are dozens of us!
The six million dollar man? That's what, 1 hip replacement in the US healthcare system?
You can still smash both, so it was worth the six million dollars and the bionic upgrade.
Childhood memories. Ahh gosh.
They both look amazing!
everyone hear the music of him jumping or running in their heads?
No, nobody at all. In fact you were the first one to even mention it.
Sudden Death Standing flash
My Dad worked on this show!
6 million dollar man? Nowadays that would be like 3 ER visits, an ambulance ride, and life saving surgery/8 day hospital stay from the weekly mass shooting he was unlucky enough to get caught in.
Wow they aged really well!
They're both still gorgeous.
Nice
Why did I think Lee Majors had been dead for decades?
How much would you love a series with these two as bionic elderly?
Why do I feel they both aged better than me and I was a toddler back then?!
Because they have.
Born in 1973 here, my knees have been bad for two decades and I did t even play sports when I was younger so I have nothing to blame except for poor exercise and bad genetics (thanks Mom).
They’ve both aged pretty well. Ms. Wagner looks absolutely fantastic…for any age….shes 74….Jesus.
They both look great!!
They aged really well.
Can anyone else HEAR this picture..?? Remember the sound played whenever they crushed, bent, or jumped over something..?!?
Wow, Bionic Woman looks incredible. I hope I can age that gracefully. 6 million dollar man still lookin healthy too. Way to go team!
Absolutely loved both shows as a kid, and thought these two were the absolute apex of celebrity…
This looks like AI.
Wow, they look awsome!
They did ok
Not exactly ‘today’ that’s from 2017
Looking good kids
They aged very well. May their parts never rust.
He looks like 6mm but whatever they paid to build that lady was a deal because godDAMN
So it’s true our noses keep getting bigger?
Lee Majors is 85 years old, do you think he’s had some work done?
I want to see what Bigfoot looks like now
Crushing tennis balls daily!
That pic is at least 7 years old.
I love how they decided save $ on special affects and went in slow motion. As a kid it was all good. Actually still awesome shows. She is a babe.
Met him when I was working at a private health spa, super nice dude.
Today?....um no
So does the Million dollar baby belong to them then?
Hilary Swank has entered the chat.
That guy got paid $6 million dollars for one scene with Ryan Gosling?
Hey, great to see them. What fun they brought to my rerun childhood.
I'd love to meet Lindsey and Lee. They seem like really cool people.
But I'd expect a handcrushing handshake from them if I got one.
I did do Halloween as Six Million Dollar Man. But I had to make the costume because it was past the series and no costumes were available.
Imagine a kid completely covered in legal pad circuitry.
That was me.
I understand that Lee Majors wanted Farrah to have a hot dinner ready when he got home even after she worked long hours on Charlie’s Angels. I wonder if he’s still misogynistic
The problem with Lee Majors eye lift is that his eyes are now more open than they were when he was young and attractive
They aged really well
.... Better, Faster, Stronger....
“Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology.”
Can you tell me when the second photo was taken?
2017
thank you
Can anyone else hear the bionics?
When age 20 looked like 50.
He was 36/37 in the younger pic.
How were people so old back then?
Both are looking good 👍
how does he have more wrinkles then than now
Loved that Lindsay was in Death Stranding. Kinda weird, but that's why it worked.
I’d love to see these two in a series together. The Bionic Boomers has a nice ring to it.
The best Cameo in cinema history has to be Lee Majors in "Scrooged". The first 5 minutes in and I knew it would be a great film.
Seeing that original pic brought back some memories. I had Bionic Woman slides for my Viewmaster.
😊👍🏾
still gorgeous ..both of them
Actually that's Brock Williams
Lindsay Wagner, Catherine Bach, Erin Gray and my Star Wars toy collection(including their original boxes). That’s all I wanted at one time in my life….
“Erin, my AT-AT Walker has those plastic clear blaster tubes you don’t see with most AT-AT’s for sale…..”
“Lindsay, can you crush the chocolate ball containing the sweet orange like you did that tennis ball when your bionic powers were tested?”
I had such a crush on her back then. And seeing her now, that crush has started all over again. Gorgeous.
I have often liked the name Lindsey, and it is mostly due to her.
They look better than me and I was born in 84
When the companion series was hatched it was decided the name could not be The Six Million Dollar Woman as it made her sound like the world's most expensive hooker.
Lindsey Wagner doesn’t appear to have had any work whatsoever and she’s still astonishingly beautiful.
They’ve got more plastic in them than their characters.
I thought ol’ Lee was decrepit but I stand corrected and Lindsay look fabulous.
6 million should cover some of the work they have had done on their faces.
Tour of duty...guest starring Lee Majors!
Lee majors is 85 but Lindsay Wagner is only 74
She still looks fantastic.
I had many crushes in the 70’s including the California girl next door look. She had such depth to her beauty and she seemed like a gentle bionic soul on TV.
Except on that episode where they made her sing to Steve. My sister and I were not having it.
Aged incredibly well
With inflation he’s now the 42,371,351.35 man. She’s still just bionic.
I'm making the bionic noise as I look at this.
They both look great!
And this is just me and my weirdness… this is living proof of how our noses keep growing.
At least they aged well they still look pretty good for being old
older
They look amazing
Wow, she looks great
They both look amazing.
What’s your problem
Jamie was my first Love. She's still beautiful.
They look like they just convinced everyone to use the VaultTec system
Steeeeel gorgeous!
Anyone remember The Fall Guy?
I wanted more than anything to be a stuntman when I grew up!
Money well spent I say.
Their foreheads are remarkably smooth cough Botox cough

Lindsay Wagner is still beautiful but back in the day she was insanely beautiful
