I had no intention of watching this show but the wife turned it on tonight...I'm addicted.  At least there is something to watch on Mondays now.

Nope,

I lost interest after T3.

It's a pretty good show, but Summer Glau isn't believable as a terminator.

So does this take place before or after T3?

Even so, her natural hotness more than makes up for it.

Yeah, they replayed the pilot. You can catch up online at fox.com if you're just now seeing the show for the first time.

It was the series premiere - which first aired a couple of weeks ago.

I'm pretty sure they chose to have a repeat due to the state of the union bullshit, which would've conflicted with it in the east.

What I do not understand about the show is why they would send a guy that's supposed to be a bad motherfucker to a government indoctrination center for "education." Seems like a waste of time to me. He would be much better served through home schooling.

The number of continuity errors in the series so far is too many to enumerate.

First off, it has been established in T3 that Judgement Day occurs sometime in 2003. The characters in T:SCC warp to 2007, and everything is fine.

Second, the 2nd episode shows that the enemy terminator warped into the future with the main characters while he was about to be destroyed. This is a fallacy because his metal endoskeleton was fully exposed and inorganic material cannot time warp.

God I'm such a nerd.

I think it is a good show. I haven't seen all the Terminator movies so this is all new to me. I think the only one I have seen is the first one and that was a long time ago.

Actually, only his head warped. (Which is bullshit anyway.)

His body ended up in a scrap heap containing the remnants of the building. It came online again when the head, now in 2007, sent its sooper sekrit subspace microwave radio transmission to come get it.

How come she is a total wuss? She was a total bad ass in 2. Why would she go all soft again?

I predict its going to be some campy BS like Smallville or Charmed, but it revolves around the Terminator.

What Fox should have done was stick with Firefly and not a Terminator takeoff!!!

Idiots at Fox!

I saw the episode where the Terminator got shocked by the safe, and then Sara threw her out the window, I thought that was funny, but the show sucked to me.

The female terminator is just not believeable to me.

Yeah, the continuity issues are killing it for me.  And all the Terminators are 101 models so far -- less intelligent ones compared to the movie series.  It's regressing the storyline as far as I'm concerned.

It is actually a good idea. However, the writers have to do more than skim through the T* DVDs a couple of times if they are to succeed.

A series like this will mainly play to Terminator fans, they have to get stuff right.
Remember in T3 when the paramedics tried to pick up the out of action Arnold? Two of them couldn't budge him - yet Sarah can pick up the Summer-bot and throw it through the window.

Even internally its inconsistent. Look at the Summer when you first see her - a normal apparently human girl. Once you know what she is, she starts with the "I-AM-A-ROBOT" behavior.

Could be good, but I don't think this team of writers is up to it.
