Amazing little show being produced by FOX.

This takes place where episode 2 starts. Bad cyborg vs. good cyborg. The kicker is that Scharzenegger's form is now female.

I'm hooked since downloading the first ep.

The first episode showed promise, but I hope the show doesn't just become "go somewhere, see a Terminator, escape."

I have more pressing questions, like is John Connor going to have sex with the Terminator protecting him? Now that would be a show.

I liked it but we will have to see. It could start sucking real quick.

I predict she would be up for it, in a "I was sent to the past to protect John Connor" sort of way--provided she's anatomically correct, which I assume she would be.

The real question is are they capable of having a half-robot, half-human child together?

I was really psyched for this show to come on television (I'm in Canada). So, I watched a little bit of it the other night when the first episode premiered but I thought...it's just going to get cancelled anyway, so why bother. I got into watching 'Invasion' and then they cancelled it.

I also think 'Bionic Woman' is going to get the axe. It just seems pointless and cheesy.

I didn't see anything special here. The good robot does seem to have a close attatchment to future John Connor though, so maybe they'll do more than have a cyborg battle once a week.

I had the choice last monday of either watching "The Sarah Connor Chronicles" on FOX or 2 hours of "Family Guy" on TBS, I chose "Family Guy"...........it had more believable action.........

Terminator of the week is not likely to happen.
Wikipedia wrote:
Friedman said the show will avoid the "Terminator of the Week" plot device and that Sarah, John, and Cameron will have other threats than just Terminators. Skynet will also come into play as the series progresses. Furthermore, Friedman stated that the events of Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines occur in an alternate timeline from that of the TV series.[6] In addition to having planned the entire story arc for the first season, Friedman has a rough idea for the plot of the following three seasons.[7]

Yeah, my feeling about Invasion. I kind of felt it was not going to have legs and stopped watching it after 5 eps. They did, however, manage to wrap up the plot line in the first season in a decent enough way so I went back and watched the full season.

Yeah! Moronic Woman is pretty much a waste of time. Sara Conner Chronicles has potential, tho. The show I really like is Stargate Atlantis, pretty fun to watch, IMHO! Anyone watch Jericho? I don't watch much TV, but there are a few good sci-fi shows worth watching!

This show actually shows promise. A totally different direction than the movie. Ep. 2 is cued up.

I liked Stargate Atlantis, but gave up on it at the start of this season. I just have no interest in watching them move around this city and worry about some random thing that needs to be repaired.
