Been meaning to write a post on this, might do it later. But suffice to say its been a very good three episodes so far except for a few niggles. Anyway back to tidying.

I don't even have any niggles. Summer Glau is in it!

worthy enough. though she seems to have gone a lot more 'roboty' after the pilot. but yay for the head finding it's body!

See that was one of my niggles, the headless terminator finding it's head.... just seemed a bit crap to me. And how it replaces its skin, just stupid, doesn't work.
The main three leads are pretty good so far though Summer Glau has definitely switched to a more robotic stance which doesn't really work when you've just watched the pilot.

All of you. You shall retract your problems with Summer Glau.
Or I shall end you.
Seriously. Thats all the warning you shall get.

i have been wanting to watch this since the Virgin 1 launch, well Virgin 1 has been launced and still no Sarah Conner Chronicles

Download it! It is good don't get me wrong (Rascal King) I'm not saying anything bad about Summer Glau shes a good actress and she plays the role really well. For me it's a shame that the writers decided to change the character between episodes. It's currently the show that Sarah and I are looking forward to most during the week.
|
The Rascal King
|
Yeah, I know what you mean, it goes from "I can pass as normal - to - I'm Arnold".
I don't care about how good an actress she is (though she IS very good, but always seems to play crazy...), I'm just saying she's hot as hell.

well i finally got to watch the first two episodes and, hell yeah, they were good. and for the record i quite like the Terminator Girl, you know the one Young Rascal rants (or is that pants) over....now keep it clean boys and girls 
such a sweet thing but oh so deadly, if you know what i mean. i think she plays the part well.
all in all, good tele.

Cameron (Summer Glau) is a good terminatrix, I think.
For me though Sarah Conner will always be Linda Hamilton (as she was in T2) and not a skinny, frail looking thing who looks always on the verge of tears.
I didn't even recognise her as the queen from 300, where she really looked like a Miller drawing brought to life, and very powerful. Whoever told her to get more waif-like was really wrong.

She has always been very thin anyway, but I wouldn't pick a fight with her she still looks like she could hold her own.
|
Batmanuel

i have always kinda fancied her, and she could hold me down if she likes, oh you said hold her own,
sorry i misread

Is this TV series meant to be canonical with the movies?

After T2 yes, but it effectivly writes 3 out of existance.
No bad thing!
Yeah, I know its not how to make friends, and a link was offered but hell, I can't afford that shit!

OK. So is the premis that Sarah Conners basically spends the rest of her life being chased by Terminators, as the adverts I've seen would seem to suggest?
|
Reaper
|
Basically yes..... though the most recent episode spends about half of it's time in the future.
|
The Rascal King
|
Just watched the newest episode, its awsome.
|
The Rascal King
|
So. 2 part finale.
What do we think?
|
Reaper
|
I really enjoyed the finale though I hadn't realised till now that, that was the end of series 1. No one was really sure that a second series would be made but Fox have tentatively confirmed that atleast three episodes will be shown come Autumn...... THATS TOO FAR AWAY!
|
The Rascal King
|
So.
The first episode was just on.
Thoughts?
I already saw it a few weeks back.
While Episode 9 of Season 1 was fucking epic, with the end scene to Johnny Cash, but the intro to Season 2 is AMAZING.
And it just gets better and better.
|
The Rascal King
|
So. Its been a while, eh?
Terminator just finished then. Possibly forever.
Which is a real goddam shame, because I just watched the last episode, and it has proven itself to be consistantly the best 40 minutes of television around. The final episode was just... I don't even really have words for it. Just mind blowing really.
If it was the last episode, Fox are insane for not picking it up, what with a Massive summer Blockbuster movie coming out in the same Franchise.
I hope its not the end.

Have Fox not picked it up then?!
The last episodes have been intense SPOILERS!!!
For a start Derek getting a very unceremonial death was fantastically handled and shocked all at the same time.
And then the travelling through time was a surprise ( though I'm a little confused/surprised that they had the tech for that) and I'm not entirely if that was the way to go BUT I didn't see it coming which is something I always like.
Considering that Sarah has become fairly bored of most of the programmes available at the moment and she still likes this one, that is high enough praise for Fox to pick it up. Pick up you bastards pick it up!
|
The Rascal King
|
Fuck. You. Fox.
Idiots.
|
Reaper
|
My sentiments..... exactly

So as you were, carry on. and may i add the i thought that the Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles was bloody good television
i want more dammit, but i am happy for it to end where it has, should it have continued and been bad it would have stained that which was good, yes?
