    It's owned by FOX so chances are it will suffer the same fate as Firefly and Drive. I do hope it's good though considering Summer Glau (River Tam from Firefly) is up to play a terminator aiding John Conner in it.

    Sounds like a load of crap to me, and pointless at that. The whole premise sounds utterly pointless, and 15 yr old terminator schoolmates ? jeez...it sounds more like smallville, Terminator should be dark and nasty.

    I think it sounds interesting, and should be worth checking out. I'll be definately watching the first episode to see what it's like.

    I'm not too sure if I like the premise for this show now after reading that news article. Surely John Connor must be well fed up with Terminators constantly popping back to either kill or protect him by now? I might check out the first episode, if only for the sake of curiosity.

    Same here. I'm just not too sure about this one.

    Be awhile before it airs...early 2008 if the reports are accurate.

    HOLY CRAP THAT LOOKS GOOD.

    Yes, that was all one sentence. And yes I will definitely watching that.

    Summer was naked near the end of the trailer - HARRAH FOR TERMINATORS!

    ^already greened you.

    Holy crap, they're better be background music though in the actual ep itself. It looks well good though - I wanna see Summer kick some futuristic ass!! (I know she did that in Firefly but they weren't Terminators).

    It makes you wonder why the machines sent back a normal terminator to kill Sarah and John though...

    And that's the lady who plays Queen Gorgo in 300 playing Sarah!!!!

    Initially, I too felt that this show was going to be pretty awful - then I saw the youtuuubes:

    -> Can you believe that this is a show? and not a movie - incredible cgi!

    -> This may actually be a show that can live up to its hype and do Terminator 2 justice!! (?)

    -> Definately doesn't look like Smallville, hehe
    It's a joke. My way of deflecting attention from my own obvious heroism. You'll get used to it.

    Looks alright from those clips. Summer Glau is a big plus, fabulous actress. I guess we'll see. I wish it had a better title though, Terminator: <subtitle here> would suffice.

    I feel bad for the show creators & Summer Glau. The fact that its on FOX pretty much guarantees it wont last long. Stop going to FOX for shows. They will kill it the first chance they get. FOX is a rare station that make Sci-Fi look good

    Four words spring to mind watching the trailer and clips :

    Seen it all before.

    more X human hero facing X terminator from the future. Again. More of the same big explosions with terminator walking out without skin. More crappy CGI that looks like a playstation game. Faking the womans voice like the other films. Seems Terminator is getting like the slasher-movie genre, in that they seem to like repeating exactly the same plot every f**king time.

    I'll give the pilot a fair chance, but I have little to no hope, especially if the majority seems to think its good (then that means it usually wont be).

    That's a bit of a wait. It doesn't bode well for this show if FOX are going to let it sit on the shelf until next year.

    They should do what they did with The Sarah Jane Adventures and put the premier on this year whilst they prepare the first season to air next year.

    Those trailers look cool. Will be checking this show out. Can't hurt to give it a go
    Science Fiction is an existential metaphor; it allows us to tell stories about the human condition.

    Isaac Asimov once said individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as ever to the blinder critics and philosophers of today, but the core of science fiction, its essence has become crucial to our salvation if we are to be saved at all.

    They should have made the show before T3. In T3 we know that she supposedly dies of cancer and he hasn't seen a T model since T2. And hell we know they fail so what's the point?

    And sadly it's on Fox so it doesn't have a chance. Plus Fox is so dumb that they won't put this on after the Super Bowl.

    And it was gonig to primere in the fall but Fox is smart enough to realize that all their good shows start in the spring so they delayed it. I doubt it will get a full season.
