I got permission to start a separate thread for the TV series. So it takes place after T2: Judgement Day and Fox is supposed to be picking it up. I'll definately check it out when it starts to air although I won't even try to compare it to the movies. Here is the first picture from it:

Frankly, I think this show is about 10 years too late. I'll probably check it out when it airs but I don't picture it sticking around long.

I shall place my cynical hat on and say it's going to blow.
I imagine they can't factor another terminator into a TV show as it would clash with established plots from the movies. Would that leave us with a mother-son drama show with her slowly going nuts trying to protect her son from Judgement Day (which we already know paradoxically has to happen)?

Sorry, but the hat is on, and isn't coming off.

Sadly, this will most likely die after the pilot. I do believe the majority of people are now beyond caring about The Terminator series anymore. And it used to be good too, before T3...

T3 was crap apart from the last 10 minutes or so, when you appreciate where the plot had been going, and the promise of a plot after judgement day. If they did a TV show about the period immediately after judgement day it would probably work.

This sounds terrible.

How could it even work. Didn't John Conner say no more Terminators came after T2 and that his mom and him just kept running. But I also heard they casted Two terminators. Again a good one and a bad one. I really can't see this lasting long. How could it. How many time machines did the machines have. And isn't it weird they would always send back a machine when the humans knew about it. Also we know John and Sarah can't die because Sarah dies of cancer and John lives.

Yeah, I agree with malkie and Beowulf. T3 kinda killed this whole idea. Besides, like was stated above, I'm not sure how much people care about Terminator anymore anyway.

Edit: Well except Chuck Sherman. tongue

If they don't have Terminators come and try to kill them, I won't watch.

If not, whats the entire point of this being Sarah Conners chronicles? They might as well title it The Jane McGee Chronicles.

The show should focus on Sarah's preparations with John, the people they meet, problems with the law, maybe tracking down Skynet assets, etc. The whole "sending a terminator back in time" bit is too oevrused- T3 shouldn't have even had it, really.

It's like Smallville, to a degree- showing the evolution of a character focusing on mainly original plotlines and characters (or existing characters in new plots).

They can't get a plot out of this unless they pretend T3 never happened.

Which if you think about it could be interesting and end the lame death from Cancer plotline for Sarah

Lena Headey's in it. That's enough for me.

Doesn't everyone pretend that T3 never happened?

Not me, I'm actully one of the few that liked T3, though I don't think I like the idea for this show, I'm more excited abou the new movies that are being made.

I liked T3 as well. Wonder if they'll have an alternate universe where Judgement Day really did happen in 97
