"Doomsday Is Tomorrow" is, perhaps, the best Bionic Woman story — arguably the best story of either Bionic series. But it, too, suffered from audio problems upon release on region one DVD in 2011.

Part One is mostly problem-free until the rock climbing scene. Part Two hits the audio "muffle" hard at the 19:40 mark and carries it in varying degrees through the end of the episode.

There's a moment near the end of Part Two where the absence of sound is used to great dramatic effect. But on the 2011 DVD, a low hum distortion can be heard above the silence. While not intrusive it is an "invisible" artifact that was introduced while striking the source masters for the R1 DVDs or in the authoring of the DVDs themselves.

Either way, these audio problems have followed this series on every subsequent release — including the Roku HD streams.
