In his autobiography, Counterpoint, Harnell reveals that there was friction between regular composer Jerry Fielding and producer Kenneth Johnson. As a result, Fielding left Bionic Woman shortly after the start of season one. For production of the episode, Bionic Beauty, Harnell was tapped to write an arrangement of the song, Feelings, for Lindsay Wagner and write a new song for guest star, Bert Parks. This stint turned into an offer to score the episode itself -- which in turn, resulted in an offer to become the regular composer for season two.

For me, it was a good experience, although it did have one negative effect. I was asked to write a new theme to replace Jerry's, but I sensed that wasn't really cricket. I said, "I don't want to do this because Jerry is a dear friend." "If you don't want to do it, we'll get someone else." With some reluctance, I wrote a theme for the main title and closing credits. Jerry called me in a fit of anger, "How could you take money off my table?" I apologized and said, "What could I do Jerry? Should I have turned it down?" "Yes, you should have turned it down." Shortly after that we instituted a policy where they used his opening music and my closing music.
