I've seen ads for a show about Sarah Connor and John going about running from Terminators. Is that it?

I've seen ads for a show about Sarah Connor and John going about running from Terminators. Is that it? FYI Episode 1: Thursday, 10PM on the Virgin-1 Channel. It apparently picks up after T2 and we have to pretend T3 never happened. You might consider that a good thing ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) ~ although I thought T3 was okay actually. I'll be watching. Not expecting miracles but it should be interesting / pass the time.

I thought T3 was great at the time but this timeline seems better.

I watched the pilot and thought that it was the biggest steaming pile of poop ever. Therefore I will just stick to the first two films and nothing else that is new.

I thought T3 was great at the time but this timeline seems better. T3 gets extra points because I didn't see the ending coming. Honestly. And I like movies where everyone dies ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) And I watched episode 1 tonight, I thought it was pretty good actually. I don't give two craps about timeline irregularities to be honest (especially in a show with time travel). The concept is strong. The two female leads were good. I actually thought Sara Connor was well cast, except Lena Headey is an actual 34-year-old who looks 29 and thingy playing John Connor is an actual 20-year old who looks... well, 20. I'm pretty sure Sara Connor wasn't 9 when she gave birth. Seriously, how old is John supposed to be in this show? Oh, and John is way too EMO, which obviously is a massive minus point. Goes w/o saying. Hopefully he grows the f' out of it as the show progesses. The dialogue was a bit crappy too, where people get VERY ANGRY very QUICKLY over nothing. But yeah, one thumb up. oh, and did anyone get any lesbian vibes between Sara and the Ferminator? Or is it just me ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . I remember from T2 there was a spiel about how the terminator would be a better father than blahblahbalh. John's got two moms now!

It was just too cheesy for me, although im tempted to watch the rest of the episodes to see how bad it will get. Hopefully I won't be that bored heh.

Well I went into it with fairly low expectations, I just wanted the following to happen *stuff to be blown up *people to be thrown through walls *people to be chased by other people / robots *scenes of driving through desolate / dusty American landscapes *at least one mushroom cloud And it pretty much delivered without too many minuses. The cheesiness comes from the crappy dialogue, way too portentous and/or EMO. I get it, the world's going to end if the chips don't fall right. You really don't need to ladle on any more of it, it's overkill. I mean, sure, it might suck in future weeks, but I'm not going to spoiler myself ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

Like in T3, they should have had Ben Hawkins play John, he's a good kid.

Just because John has a certain Hairstyle doesnt mean hes "Emo" he chased down that shipment of Coltan at his own risk and stole it from a real live Terminator.
