Okay, I loved Term 1 & 2, and I abhorred 3.
I watched a few eps of TSCC and found myself liking it too much, so I figured FUX would cancel it, and I terminated my Hulu viewing of it to avoid the inevitable heartache.
I recently saw Salvation (with which I could deal), and the animated prequel (with which I could MORE than deal), and now I need to know if I should sell stuff to buy TSCC to sate my Terminator thirst-
BUT, if the last ep of season 2 is too cliff-hangar-y, I can't handle it.

So, any thoughts, my Browncoat peeps?

Unfortunantly Chris, much like our very beloved DARK ANGEL, "FUX" as u call it axe'd TSCC, with a fraking cliff-hanger-y ending, much like DARK ANGEL. But, even with that, it is worth buying, more than worth buying. Even tho Jesse Flores is a super bitch, worse than Renfro, if possible. We MUST BRING TSCC BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it is quite Cliffhangy, I am sorry to say, But acording to BAG(Brrian Austin Green) that plays Derek, a movie is a possibillity, said by him at the StarFury/T2 con in Britain here this june that we have jusst got out of

we could have used one more to fight for our cause, the SaveTtSCC-group(you can probably find them by searching on SaveTtSCC) is gathering money to make a billboard(it has already driven around once) drive arround a big Con(ComiCon I think it was) here in the 20´s of July too.

And, really, the cliffhanger kinda works; you could take it as the end of the story, just a very disappointing one.

Did you like the open-ended finale of Angel? If so, I don't think you would have any problem with how TSCC ends, even if that rumored movie never happens.

It is rumored that Firefly DVD sales were responsible for us getting "Serenity". I got both seasons of TSCC, let's hope we get a movie of this too. Not possible to have too much Summer Glau.

I own both seasons as I really liked this show and still do. It had a lot going for it after a bit of a shaky start. Even with the plot continuity problem betweens seasons (points left unfinished, characters disappearing) none of them were really major problems IMO. The show delved into much more emotional stuff than the films did, especially between Sarah and John. The great episodes far outweighed the not so great and there were some nice links to the mythology.
The ending is a definite cliffhanger that at first glance won't make much sense but can be explained with some thought and filling the blanks in with your own personal ideas.
A third season would definitely have been interesting.

Overall, knowing a bit about what you like, I would say it's worth buying - except for the ending. I like it but you may not.
Maybe rent it first and see what you think but definitely see it through to the end because it does have some great episodes.

EDIT: Because I misread a post about Angel and thought it was Dark Angel - understandable as it is Chris.

Seriously? One of the best finales in TV history? Perfect ending for Angel, because no matter what he did he would never be able to fully atone for what he had done. His fight would never be finished.
