The Sarah Connor Chronicles General Discussion

I watch it every week. The timeline don't add up, it's like they don't even try, but it's still a fun show.

....I didn't like the way the girl Terminator says "Come with me if you want to live". Are they all going to quote the movies the whole way through the series?

They unfortunately did that throughout the movie series too. In Terminator 2, Arnie said it to Sarah which I think was a way to show her that he was a friend since she'd remember Reese said it to her in the first one. Unfortunately in the 3rd one, I have no idea why it was said.

If I was the evil Terminator and I wanted to trip them up I'd be all like "Come with me if you want to live." Then shoot their asses down.

This two hour finale was awesome.


When FBI dude went to town with the Terminator and brought all those FBI swat dudes, and they was playing the Johnny Cash tune, that was fregin awesome.

And when John got to see his dad playing ball in the park, that was super awesome.

It was a really well done episode.

I must say that the actor who was David on 90210 was a real geek back then, but now is cooler than hell. He really grew up and became a good actor/tough guy.

I have a link to the Cash tune that was playing while the FBI guys got toasted. I thought the music went well with the scene, I liked the guitar, and I liked "when the man comes around" lyric while the Terminator stood there. Awesome.

Ooooh! Finale! Awesome. I'll watch it soon.

This show is alright, but I think it could be so much more than it is. I think each episode needs to be a self contained story within a much bigger story... but as it stands, the episodes are leaking over from one to the other, which means there's been a couple of filler episodes. If they could do the whole story arc without the filler eps, it'd be better.

The second season has started up. The first episode involves Sarah and John running from Cameron as her CPU or whatever is damaged by the explosion at the end of season one. Meanwhile, that black FBI (or is he just a cop?) fellow is dealing with the aftermath of the SWAT massacre at the hotel. Also, those two dudes (Sarah's ex fiance and Reese's brother) try to track down Sarah and John to help protect them.

I believe I fell asleep near the end (and was kind of drifting in and out of it), but if I remember correctly John eventually manages to get the CPU out of Cameron, but puts it back in to see if she kills him or not. Seems like a rather daft thing to do, if you ask me.

YAY!!! Shirley Manson (lead singer of the band, Garbage) is joining the cast!!! She's the hot redhead.

Oh yeah, she's cool. Not sure what her role in the story is quite yet, but she's got hold of the "Turk" which is apparently the AI computer that will eventually become skynet.

Turns out she is a (SPOILER, highlite to read) a shape shifter Terminator (/SPOILER)

And she's not that hot.

-HECK!

Yeah, I saw the end of it last night.

Good: She came out of the urinal - that looked crazy mad.

Bad: She held her finger up to the dude's face and you're like "oh, I know what's going to happen next". That's bullshit. It's all very well and good to have a T1000 in the show, but for it to just be a rehash of the same old shit it did in the second movie... lame...

But, well, I do like where the story's headed.

I stopped watching TCS halfway through the season last year, so I have no idea what was going.

Was that the 90210 queer and the brother from Rescue Me helping out the Connors? When did the cute chick from Firefly turn bad?

-HECK!

Those two are trying to help them, yeah. The 90210 guy is supposedly Reese's brother.

Summer Glau went evil because of a car bomb right at the end of the season finale last year. No other explanation but that.

Been meaning to get caught up, watch the ep's online. But I think you just summed it all up.

-HECK!

Nothing too major's going on. There were only 9 episodes in the first season, so you didn't miss much. I think the most interesting part was when the enemy terminator rebuilt his flesh, skin and stuff.

Tory Spellings chump boyfriend threw a baseball to himself last season.

HA! How's that for a paradox.


I think if I was a terminator, and liquid metal, a urinal is one of the last things I'd want to shape into.

I think I'd morph into an Orange County Chopper or a Agent Smith Desert Eagle hand gun.

If I had to morph into a toilet, guess it would have to be Angelina Jolie's toilet. Not for a deuce though. I don't care who you are, dropping a deuce is not something I need to be around.

-HECK!

I would refuse to morph into a toilet. I would reject my programming.

I aint taking no turd. No urine either.

Skynet can suck it, I just aint doin it.

Guns and explosives have chemicals and moving parts. It doesn't vwerk like zat. But he can form simple metal objects.


Thinking about the urinal thing, they tend to have a bit of water in them at all times, right? So she was still just sitting there, filled with a bit of pee-water, before she morphed out of it.

Then I would make myself a knife or stabbing weapon.

But not a urinal!

I like the series but I thought the urinal thing was kinda stupid. They should come up with new stuff for her to do instead of repeating things from the movie.

That's totally what I was getting at. The urinal thing wasn't TOO bad, since it was a bit of a surprise... but when she's holding her finger up I was just thinking "oh how original"... except with a sarcastic tone.

That was the point of it though. They wanted T2 fans to go, "oh yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah!" It's like as if she winked at the camera and said "I'll be back."

-HECK!

Second episode of the season aired a couple of days ago. I haven't caught it yet.

It was aight. A little flat for me. Had a couple good moments, but some zoned moments too.

I can't figure out if Summer Glau is hot or not.

Sometimes yes, other times she looks like jail bait.

-HECK!
