The Sarah Connor Chronicles

[BlackLantern]

if it does continue....hopefully John spends the first 3 or 4 episodes in the future and helps in a raid on a lab or something that has a TDD in it so he can jump back.....and then have him jump back a year after Sarah saw him go

The dudes at her company who got slack on security? They mean nothing to her so killing them means nothing to her, either.

Actually, the factory that she massacred was not part of her company. They were tied to the Kaliba group, who are directly responsible for the creation of Skynet in the current timeline.

On a side note, I got so annoyed by the fact that they got Cameron's eye color wrong in that last episode that I actually set out to fix it on my own.



I'm hoping this gets fixed on the DVD, because if a blockhead like me can do that without even taking a video editing lesson in barely an hour, then Warner Bros. and their techno-wizards should not have any problem fixing it, unless they're a bunch of dummies and just don't care. It really was a pretty big oversight, given that Cameron has had blue eyes since the pilot. Even if they don't do jack about it though, I guess I can always go and do a retouched version of the whole episode once the DVD becomes availible.

Eh, maybe Cameron's eyes change color. I never got why female Terminators had blue eyes anyway.

I can't nitpick over eye color....seems petty to me....

I'm still confused as to why people say that this finale was potentially a good series closer... Josh Friedman said the whole point of this finale was that it would leave fans demanding a third season, because it opens up so issues that need resolving and leaves the viewer asking so many questions. A good "potential series ender" would have been our heroes riding off into the sunset, but that's not what JF wanted. This ending is basically like this series' equivelent to Empire Strikes Back, and I don't think that there was any Star Wars fanboy in 1980 who said "You know, if Episode VI doesn't work out, Empire Strikes Back is still a great closer for the series."

What made it so great was that it did leave questions that you would like to see answered, but they aren't significant questions that hang over that make you completely enraged that you will never see answered.

They make you want to see more, but this chapter in the Terminator saga is now over. Personally, I think that the Sarah Connor Chronicles should be canceled and revamped into a new show like how All in the Family turned into Archie Bunker's Place, Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers turned into Power Rangers: Zeo, or Justice League turned into Justice League Unlimited.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The John Connor Chronicles.

 

[FCEEVIPER]

The John Connor Chronicles.

Yes!

 

[Paradox1]

if he's a bad ass John Conner then yeah

 

[Kable24]

No matter what, we want a third season after that ending. I don't care what it's called as long as we get the third season. but FOX will screw us over, I'm sure.

 

[Nightmare]

if he's a bad ass John Conner then yeah

CONNOR!!!!!!!!

 

[Kable24]

Give it up man.

 

[FCEEVIPER]

[LadyVader]

I miss him too.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

It hurts to even see him.

 

[Nightmare]

Give it up man.

Maybe it got damaged at some point (e.g. when she got caught in the car bomb?) and replaced it with a new one from the Terminator parts she had been collecting?

The John Connor Chronicles.

Nah... I'd much prefer The Cameron Chronicles

Start the show with season 3. Move it to Monday nights on a different network. Simple solution.

Not simple at all.....can you name any show in the past 5 years that has even moved networks??

 

[Nightmare]

Would they just up and take every actor, writer, producer too? Forgetting contracts they have with fox as well?

 

[Golgo-13]

The more i think about it the less it makes no sense for Sarah to want to stay behind. She's wanted by LE now more so than ever before;that is unless the time machine that was left behind still works, and her and Ellison jump back a few years.........

Scrubs - ABC Studios made the show, but aired it on NBC. ABC decided that they wanted the show then and moved it to ABC for the eighth season

Futurama - Started on FOX and then put it up for syndication on Cartoon Network for their Adult Swim bloc. The contract went up and then it went to Comedy Central along with airing the DTV movies that air on the channel in an episodic style to make a "fifth season" in a way. Because of the sales DVD sales of the seasons and DTV movies of Futurama, along with the success it has been having on Adult Swim and Comedy Central, 20th Century Fox is now considering bringing back Futurama in a proper season fashion and bring it back to FOX.

Arrested Development - The show was going to move from Fox to Showtime to continue on with a fourth season, it was almost a done deal but Mitch Hurwitz did not want to return feeling that he told the story that he wanted to tell and Showtime decided not to go forward with it because they wanted Hurwitz.

Smallville, One Tree Hill, Supernatural, 7th Heaven, Gilmore Girls, Everybody Hates Chris, Veronica Mars, Reba, Beauty and the Geek, America's Next Top Models, All of Us, and Girlfriends were all a part of Warner Bros' the WB and CBS' UPN line-ups and continued on with the CW following their merger.

Viva Pinata - Originally aired on 4Kids' block on FOX, but then moved it to their bloc on the CW.

WWE Friday Night Smackdown - Originated on UPN and continued on with the CW, however it has now moved to MyNetworkTV.

WWE Raw - Originated on USA and then moved to TNN/Spike, then it moved back USA

A lot of other shows have moved over the years like Sabrina the Teenage Witch from ABC to the WB, Step by Step and Family Matters from ABC to CBS, Get Smart from NBC to CBS, Diff'rent Strokes from NBC to ABC

She wants to stay behind and continue her fight to stop Judgment Day. The time machine was headed into a post Judgment Day future.

It was also time for her to let John go and be the man he has to be. Her role as his protector has been fulfilled.

 

[hippie_hunter]

Warner Bros. Television makes the show so the cast and crews' contracts would be with them not FOX or its television production arm.

I thought it made perfect sense. It's time for Sarah and John's goals and methods to diverge since they have always had different ideologies about the machines.

Speak for yourself. I'm going to be pretty darned enraged if I don't find out why John Henry took Cameron's chip (or rather, why she gave it to him), how the fridge John is going to get back to 2009, wether Sarah is really going to die of cancer, whether or not John will resist the temptations of Cameron's human "sister" Allison... There's just a ton of new plot threads that sprung up in the last episode, and if I don't get to see where any of them go, I am going to be a very sad camper.

Also, I'm going to say "heck no" to the idea of dropping the show and starting anew. I can almost tolerate the idea of them dropping the "Sarah Connor Chronicles" subtitle since the show has gotten far bigger than just Sarah, but I don't want them to because it's part of the show's identity. This is a show about the Connor family (which includes Cameron), and Sarah is the head of the family so I think it makes sense for her name to be in the title even if just as much time is being spent on the kids (and in a lot of episodes, more). It's a family drama show that has sci fi and action, although I would not label it as a sci fi or action show. The show is just as much about the complex relationship between Sarah, John, and Cameron as it is about stopping the future war, and that's part of why I love this show so much. In fact, I'd go so fare as to argue it's MORE about the Connor family than it is about the war they're entangled with.
