Sad...

Was continually improving , and someone should pick this one up and continue it...

At least give us a special movie or miniseries to wrap it up .

Hopefully , Summer will get more opportunities to stretch and give life to interesting characters like Cameron , or River , again .

Personally,not bothered at all.It was slow,clumsy and muddled ina lot of places.And its not like we didnt know what the outcome would be.A concept that was flawed from the very beginning.A wsste of a good few hours of my life unfortunately.Perhaps now Summer can turn her hand to some actual acting again coz she can be quite good at it, as we all know.

I have to respectfully disagree with you, Peacekeeper, in that the show had promise and was presenting some excellent ideas. Was it perfect? Even a TSCC fan like myself can admit it was uneven and the character usage skewed in odd directions, but I think some excellent opportunities for storytelling have been lost, though I recognize Warner Bros. and Fox's decision as business and not something truly malicious.

For me, I think Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles was faced with the same problem the Batman spinoff Birds of Prey did a few years back: licencing fees and being tied to a myth-rich storyline that affected independent creative growth to make it more difficult unless a Smallville direction was taken (i.e. basic facts kept but a lot of changes otherwise),

I admit that towards the end of the series it got a little more exciting.However,it just took a long damn time to get going.Some episodes were just a snorefest.It waes just sheer stubbornness on my part to keep watching.I started so I had to finish.The trouble is that we all know that Skynet wont be stopped,we all know that Sarah will die of Cancer and we all know how the story ends.So,what was the point.Th whole idea of storytelling is to create some form of suspense.But you dont get that when you already know how it ends.That is what I meant by flawed.Im glad it gave you some tv heaven,but unfortunately,it wasnt for me.Plus the fact,Shirley Manson was just AWFUL!!!
