A superb series that is crying out for renewal
Warning! Multiple spoilers!
As I write this review, just after the end of TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES, the future of the show is very uncertain. The ratings after the show's move to Friday night in February 2009 were never strong, although it persistently ranked #1 among shows having the largest percentage of their viewers watching via DVR. The brute fact is that TSCC did not lack for viewers; it lacked for live viewers during broadcast.
I hope very much for a Season Three of TSCC. This was easily one of my favorite shows for the 2008-2009 season. When it was on Monday nights, I watched it live rather than either CHUCK or GOSSIP GIRL, two shows that I enjoy. When it moved to Fridays I intentionally stayed home to watch it (and then for six glorious weeks DOLLHOUSE and BATTLESTAR GALACTICA, for what was perhaps the finest nights of TV I've ever experienced). Although the show lagged a bit just after its midway point (unfortunately right when it...
The Very Best of TV
My wife and I are picky about what we watch on TV. There are just a few drama shows about which we care. I would burn my 65 inch HD-TV before I would watch one of these "reality" or American Idol type shows.
On the other hand, we can hardly wait for each new episode of "Sarah Connor." The actors are fantastic and the characters are well developed. From the former FBI agent to Summer Glau's character, they do their parts so very well. If we are out of town or otherwise not home we record the show.
I hope the show will last a long time but I hope, while they still have the actors together, whenever it leaves TV they will make a two-hour wrap-up for big-screen movie release and not leave us hanging as some good shows have done.
I've bought the DVDs of the first season and will buy any future DVDs as quickly as they are available. We didn't miss an episode because of the wonder of recording but I want them for the future. What great TV and what great...
