Lightbulb Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles

How many of you started watching this? I love it, I've always loved the terminator series. What do you think?

we're english...just wait...and get used to it

i'm not so sure about this tv series, 99% of films turned into tv shows are total crap, but they all deserve a chance so i guess i'll watch it when it comes out. but i'm not expecting much

Yeah, the premier was Sunday or so.

I gotta agree with PJ, I think it's going to be crap.

i've watched the first 2 episodes. I dont mind it, its keeping my interest so far, but i wouldnt really care if i missed it going forward either. I think im more enjoying the terminator theme rather than the show itself. I loved the movies and this is 'ok' but its nothing amazing. I will continue to watch it while it lasts i think !

This show sucks! It doesn't even stick with the canon of the movies. The show is horribly miscast........ and I hate the "girly" terminator. They could have at least got an "Arnold" type guy to be the protector not some lame chick.

This show jumped the shark the moment it came on.

I haven't really seen the show, but the gamerpic(s) (girl with shotgun) from the show on the Marketplace gets me strangely aroused.

WTF are you talking about? You see, I doubted the show at first, worried it wouldn't follow the "Canon" of the movies. But it actually goes along with them really well. I mean, in the first episode they brought up Miles Dyson, who you would know NOTHING about unless you've seen the movies. If you haven't seen the movies the show wont be as enjoyable. I love it, but it also may be because I'm a DIE HARD terminator fan.

It's good to see you're catching up on 1998 lingo, Potsy.

They jumped the shark on the season premier of Reno 911! last night, or at least attempted to LOL.

Apparently you did not pay very much attention to the movies. Since a lot of facts are wrong. The year Sarah dies of cancer was changed, it's supposed to be 2 years after T2 yet they are in 1999? Now they time travel to 2007? The chick terminator is cast horribly wrong (that girl would be more scary if she was wearing a hello kitty shirt).

First of all, shut up . And second of all you are ALMOST right. Sarah Connor dies in 1997, 6 years after T2 was shot, I'm not sure if the movie takes place in 1991. Check out this screen from T3...
