Hey, if it is a reality show with bipedal killer robots, that would be worth watching

TtSCC will go about 13 or so episodes and then be terminated. Of this I am pretty sure given that it is basically a tried and true Sci-Fi robots are people too retread of a plot line that has been literally hammered to death. Hell it is already being called a BSG type rip-off based in 2007 on Earth given that the robots are human and want to knock off man kind. To these people I simply say TERMINATOR, go rent it and stop *****ing, it really makes you look 12 and quite pathetic.

FOX is known for its love of killing shows after 13 episodes. They kill em off only to discover years later that they had made a horrible mistake. Examples, Family Guy, Futurama, Firefly, and so on. Hell they were going to kill 24 around hour 13 but fan out pouring kept the show on the air and it blossomed into a huge hit for FOX. (I think the executive that wanted to drop the axe on that show had the axe dropped on him.)

If they would kill off Firefly after 10 episodes, even though they had 13 read to go, then this crappy excuse for a show won't last long. Yes,It Truly Is That Bad...!

All I've wanted to see since seeing the original movie is what happens after the bombs go off. How does John Conner go from reluctant hero, to being the saviour of mankind. I hope that is what T4 will be about. I think AT is right about Fox cancelling the show sooner than later. We'll just have to wait and see.

Too much time travel.
Not enough Summer Glau.

I agree with the previous post, and I hope T4 is about the war. I hated T3's "the internet made me do it" origin of Skynet... if for no more reason than the internet is not shielded against nukes, and of course networked computers are nothing special. I wasn't thrilled with T2's rewriting of "how many time travelers there were". I just loved T1's "a storm is coming" ending... making it in my mind the best of the movies.

That "internet made me do it" crap in T3 was so lame. Do you think the writers of that little tid bid put some thought into what happens to the internet when all the computers are nuked out of existence? Without power computer no work, no computers, no networks, no networks, no internet, no internet, no skynet. Duuuuuurrrrrrr

Well at least they didn't save Sara conners head and put her in a prison with a baby terminator in her belly that is never explained how it got there.

I did not like Reaper at all.

I did like Dead Like Me. And they are making a movie.

I have to admit I'm rather surprised. A sci-fi show on Fox that ended up airing an entire season. Who'd have thunk?
