View Full Version : Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
Did anyone else watch the premiere of this show last night? It seems to be pretty cool so far.

My brother in law and uncle were watching it, I wasn't paying attention. It looked pretty cheesy with bad acting from the commercials. Was it actually alright?
i watched a few minutes of it... then i realized that there was a show about dogs on pbs, so i went with that.

Shit! I missed it? :pist :pissed The previews looked very cool indeed. I hope they replay it, so I can program my dvr. I watch pretty much everything on DVR now, so I miss a ton of commercials.

Man...I had such high hopes for this. They took an excellent idea and totally "prettied" it up. :rolleyes I considered it a waste of an hour and definitely won't be making that mistake again.
:thumbsdown

How is this show "prettied" up? In the "Pilot" episode, there was at least one huge explosion, plenty of shooting and even some gnarly wounds on the female lead characters.

I have it on my Tivo and haven't watched it yet. If you want to come over I'll hold off until you're ready.

Hmmm? Maybe I will ask the wife. How about this weekend? Maybe we can bring pizza or something?

John is about as emo as you can get and Sara is totally not buff enough. The casting of Sara was completely off base......if you follow the movie story line...Sara Connor became basically a bad ass bitch leading up to where the series is supposed to come in. The series Sara is entirely too pretty and, well, for lack of a better way to say it, feminine.
Explosions, shooting, and gnarly wounds come off cheesy when the people who are casted suck.
My two cents ---->:thumbsdown

Maybe a hotel room while you're at it:dogstyle
sorry, reading that sounded like two people setting up a date.
You can watch full episodes for free at www.fox.com . They usually have the last couple episodes up for viewing (and without commercials)
I watched the 1st two episodes and am on the fence about it. I'll just have trouble remembering what night it is on so I can remember to watch it next time it airs.

I saw a clip of it that kinda creeped me out. It looked like everyone was naked (time machine stuff) and Sarah and John were watching something in the distance. Well, they were crouching down and John was looking over Sarah's shoulder, presumably with his junk touching her butt. Dude, that's your MOM!

I'm on the fence about it as well, but cautiously optimistic.

Well it would have been cool had it actually recorded. I've been having similar problems lately. I think my Tivo is going tits up. :(
Looks like I'll have to download it. If I get a decent copy I'll encode it to DVD and you can still come over.
