anyone else think yesterdays episode was really really good?

VANFLAMESFAN · 10-07-2008, 10:37 PM

I thought it was one of the weaker episodes of the season. Great idea, but I thought the episode kind of dragged a little bit. Although, I did love the trap they set for the 888.

Was it me or did John and Co realize that there were two more guys of the same name from the phonebook?? How many 10 year olds are listed by name in the phonebook?? I know it's TV and I can let stuff go, but that was just silly.

I was thinking the exact same thing while I was watching the episode. When it comes right down to it, only the first Martin should have been listed. I think the other 2 are both underage and would be listed under their parent's names instead. Blech.

It was an ok episode, but we got a good glimpse of the future with Reese, is it me or did they really cut back on the special effects with no real look at future combat?

One of the big positives was that the terminator was played by an actor that played my favorite character from the old T.V. show Tour of Duty, he played a nutjob CIA field agent

Good call. That is lame. It would have been pretty easy to get around that (the internets!) but I think they were trying to tie it to the first movie when Arnold tears the "Connor" page out of the phonebook.

And what school lists the names of all their students? That's a serious security risk.

Fox has picked up Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles for a full season, ordering the back nine episodes of the show's second season from Warner Brothers, sources told The Hollywood Reporter.

Good news.

New Episode on Tonight as well

NSFL · 10-20-2008, 03:01 PM

Anyone here know why there was no new episode last week? Or was there one and I just blanked on it?

Ah, gotcha, thanks.

bigtmac19 · 10-20-2008, 05:54 PM

I just got to watch the last episode after work, I haven't been on this thread because I did not want to spoil it. I thought the episode was great, one of the best so far.

I'm really waiting to see tonight's episode now.

JiriHrdina · 10-21-2008, 12:59 AM

Well tonight's episode just kicked all manner of arse. I wondered if it had been John that had killed the guy in the 1st episode.

RougeUnderoos · 10-21-2008, 01:53 AM

That new terminator that Cameron twisted into a pretzel was just silly looking and why did they stop fighting in the elevator when the hoomans got on?

It was a good episode, but Shirley Manson still sucks.

It did, it was just awesome.

I kind of figured it had been John too, but you were never really sure.

That poor little girl!

Did you see the T1000 nod her head in agreement when the other Mom said sometimes she just wanted to kill her kid (kidding of course). That was creepy.

I wanna know what's in the basement

Isn't the basement where the computer programmers are programming the "brain". The one that randomly shows pictures.

CaptainCrunch · 10-21-2008, 09:57 AM

Suddenly things are getting clearer.

When Reese was pulled into the basement of that house, its pretty clear to me that there was some brainwashing going on there. Now this girl pops into his life from the future, she's gone AWOL and she has the pictures of what looks like skynet targets. I'm pretty sure that she's been brainwashed.

bigtmac19 · 11-04-2008, 07:48 AM

So who watched last night.

Another excellent episode!

This show just gets better and better.

Rhettzky · 11-04-2008, 08:08 AM

I saw it, not too shabby. The part where the female terminator transforms from that cop into her scottish self seemed pretty choppy. And she still kind of bugs me. I think it's the accent that throws her character off for me.

*Spoiler*
That part where Summer kills those three guys at the bowling alley was awesome. In case you forgot she was a killing machine, here was a reminder.

I really hope the end when Derek said something along the lines of "He's looking less like John Connor and more like John Baum everyday" was a hint that John is going to start being less babied and break out of this emo-whiny state they have him in.

bigtmac19 · 11-04-2008, 08:19 AM

Yes, she's hard to take, but getting more interesting I think.
Quite the twist with Ellison too.
