http://www.tvrage.com is a decent place to look up show air dates, cancellation status, etc. Yes, TSCC was cancelled.

But to what degree? I'm sure Fox is aware of how S1 of TSCC did on DVD. I'm sure they have expectations for how S2 will do. Given that many people actually didn't enjoy S2, are we really sure it'll sell well enough that the show should have been given a reprieve based on anticipated DVD sales?

It's more complex than that (we have to include the cost of the show into the equation) but I essentially buy what you're saying. The thing is... I have to be at least somewhat accepting of the current model because I haven't really seen a better one presented.

Why do people who know better continue to focus on viewing methods that do nothing for the advertisers paying for these shows? If folks are recording on DVR, then using those DVR's to skip commercials, what good does it do the advertiser? Those people, put simply, don't count. Thus, they're not...

I appreciate the statement from Josh Friedman. Thanks for sharing it. The best thing about learning the status of the show is I don't have to hear about the all-knowing EW for awhile.

Good article. Thanks.

The parallel to human nature you point out is strong, as just like we're supposed to have programming that overrides our base programming, so does Cameron also have new "program directives" that override her base programming. But her base programming is still there. It hasn't been deleted. If...

But just think how much money will be left on the table if it's a 13 episode season instead of a full 20-something episode season. That said, I agree with you. But then, I feel that way about seasons in general. It's generally too draining on the creative talent to do 20-something episodes...

Folks who have questions, lets hear some of them. I don't think we've ever seen a future jump before. Excedrin City. I didn't get the confirmation that GarbageBot was on the USS Jimmy Carter. I'm sure you guys resolved this around T2, but I thought the rules for time travel said only...

You want to kill off Sarah Connor from The Sarah Connor Chronicles? Anyway, this is the best episode of this show I can remember, which isn't to say it's the best ever (my memory doesn't work like that), but it's definitely the best in some time. I flat out enjoyed it from beginning to end.

Thanks. Maybe someone should write the show runners of TSCC and suggest they release the road map for the fans. I'd do it, but honestly I've never been into this particular show for the so-called end game. Sometimes people don't do things because it just doesn't occur to them, so writing could...

For that matter, how'd John Doe have infinite knowledge? There was another case recently when the people involved talked about what was going to happen... Kyle XY. I don't think there's anything legal preventing folks from doing it. I mostly think it's just a job to most of the folks involved...

Which of course still misses the point of them getting you to actually watch the commercials. They don't much care if you zap past the commercials or let them play at regular speed to an empty room.

The first action we see it taking is killing one of the crew. Why? My attention was slightly divided and I don't have it recorded.

My most enjoyable aspect of the episode, even if it isn't supported by any previous episode. In those scenes with the jacket, etc., he looked like the guy who could grow into John Connor. He's growing up.

John can do anything. Even as a teenager, he can hack into NSA computers on a moment's notice if the plot calls for it. Best just ignore that. WarGames made sense. John's skills? Not so much.

I'm don't know where I was wrong because I said exactly what you said. Nowhere did I say the TV show has to follow the movies. What I expressed is a frustration that I'm hearing this "endgame" thing in more and more threads. Let Clark be superman already. Galactica only has a few episodes left...

todd s, can you explain more? Judgement day isn't a nuking of one city. The movie tells us Skynet sends our nukes to another country (was it Russia?). Why? Because it knows that country will take care of nuking the U.S. From what the movies show, it's a massive scale nuclear strike. If that's...

There is no end game. They're telling stories set in a Terminator world. You're not going to see humans win the war. You're not going to see Terminators win the war. You're not going to see the war averted. You're watching a version of Sarah and John while he was growing up. The last episode may...

You've attributed a lot of human qualities to Cameron. Not programmed imitations, but actual human qualities. I don't see the character that way at all. I think when the woman opened the door, she got unexpected feedback to an action (knocking on the door), adjusted to that unexpected feedback...

I was going to mention that, but it was proof only that Reese once knew Fischer, not that Reese was the torture subject. I decided that I'd simply explain my take on the episode (I thought Reese suppressed things) and let it lay at that since I can't be sure one way or the other about what...

Looks like I nodded off a bit during the episode, but yes, I did buy that he repressed it. I went back and watched that portion again, and they offer maybe it didn't happen in his future. The other option, of course, is that his girlfriend is simply lying. I've no idea why she'd be lying, but...

What supports that conclusion?

By quickly, you mean within a few seconds of Ellison dying, right? He's a boy learning to be a man. He believed Ellison. Surely Ellison would have told the truth before gasping his last dying breath, right? And do you really want to torture someone who may not be guilty of any thing? Even Derek...

While we're in a forgiving mood, I guess I should forgive that we've been shown terminators can run quite fast. I bring it up not because I want to nitpick the episode or the show, but because it really stands out to me over the course of several episodes. They keep having these terminators move...

Yes, it came on today. And so did Prison Break. I assume that's what you mean by PB&J.

Making a big spectacle by killing humans as opposed to the big fight that was already going on in the elevator? In fact, killing the family likely wouldn't have been a spectacle at all as the terminator wouldn''t have been there and it's not like there were elevator cams for "footage at 11."...

Not much "bothers" me about the show, but that did. It was the moment it felt like the writers didn't care (or know) about the basic premise of the show. Terminators want to wipe out humanity, but they'll stop fighting because a family with a little boy enters an elevator?
