I won't be watching the premiere :s I don't have an HDTV, so I'll wait until someone friendly "backs up" a copy to the interwebs so I can watch it in HD. However I will turn my tivo on to record it. Gotta give them ratings, make sure they don't cancel it on me.

It's BACK!!! :D

Argh, Stupid Song don't like that!!

WOW, this Season Premiere is Great!

It was good, but I didn't like the opening. 5 minutes worth of action slowed down to what felt like 20 minutes.

Also...

I liked when Cameron was telling Sarah "call to him...". IMO that scene really made the series feel like the movie.

Did anyone else feel like the it was painfully obvious that the executive chick was a Terminator? I realized that the first scene with her. Though I wasn't expecting her to be a T-1000.

Yeah, I was figuring she was.

I loved it when she started extending her finger out and then impaled the guy in the head like the one in T2

So now there's a T1000-like Terminator that, instead of hunting down John Connor, is involved in creating Skynet? And she has all the emotions and mannerisms that a human, unlike any previous models? Several plot holes in the story and the opening sequence was quite drawn out, and the guy asking the agent questions... why did he talk so funny?! :blink:

I think the previous season had more going than this episode did, so with that, I think I'm done watching it and will instead probably just read about what happens. At least Prison Break is more entertaining, but that's just me.

Great episode and a good start to the second season. I thought Shirley was a terminator, or had links to them, but feck me a T-1000

Then again great for the plot and season.

Whatever. Last season can't compare!

There is no need for her to hunt down John Connor with Cameron already doing that. BTW, the BIG plot of Terminator isn't just to kill John Connor, but to create Skynet!

ONLY thing I didn't like about last night was the Song, like I said. Horrible song choice!

Did week #2 of "Gossip Girl" live up to its strong season premiere? Was the return of "Sarah Connor" a success? And did FOX's "Prison Break" get better or worse after last week's dismal return? Monday night results are in.

Good news for The CW; not so good news for FOX. The 20th episode of the teen soap scored 3.16 million viewers, down from 3.38 million it lured to the netlet for last week's Hamptons-based premiere.

The episode was however 2nd best ever in key demos and it built its 18-49 audience from a year-ago telecast by as much as 45%. I'm sure Parents Television Council will be thrilled about that.

As for FOX's "Sarah Connor," the Terminator series was back with only 6.34 million viewers, down from 7.98 million it pulled in for the 2-hour 1st season finale on March 3.

The show did win its timeslot among adults 18-49. Will it do equally well when NBC's "Chuck" gets back into the prime time mix?

Finally, Terminator's lead-out "Prison Break" actually managed to build a little on these numbers and tie CBS sitcom repeats in adults 18-49.

But with only 6.48 million viewers tuning in, the show is still down a million from last year and down 3 million from season 1. This may indeed be the final year for "Prison Break", especially if "Fringe" and "Dollhouse" do well.

this was just a good way to start (they continue the way they ended the series)... The end of the ep was lame.

Was a surprise at least to me to see the Garbage singer on the series.

EDIT

I only wish they dont screw (even more) the terminator movies. Would

be great they head to something that have nothing to do with terminators but the way they find to survive (like was the last ep of the 1st season and the beginning of this ep).

Thank God they cut that emo (crap) lookin of John. Seems like they are going to the right way this time. I hope.

I was only shocked because Cameron didn't sneak the "We're gonna have a baby, John!" line with her plea not to be deactivated. What's with the terminators picking up faith and qouting scripture now this season, did the writers think "Oh wow, that works out nicely for the cylons in BSG, lets give it a try!"... seriously. I though the idea of a terminator model was to blend in, the Shirley Manson character with her eye shadow and skanky looks just tosses that out the window. I could go for a little less Sarah and John episode reconciliations... it's like Stan and Kyle discussing whatever moral ambiguities they learned from an episode of South Park feel to it.

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By WaltC · Posted

      All I can say is that think the USB G8 is better in many ways, and costs the same or slightly less. I wouldn't part with mine. It's even a big improvement over the G6 USB. (You can also use studio phones (up to 600 OHMs I think) with the G8, but I have to say that even relatively cheap 30-50 OHM phones sound absolutely great--far better than through most internal motherboard sound!) Considering the difference in these products I am surprised that Creative is still making the PCIe internal card versions. https://www.headphoneer.com/cr...ve-sound-blaster-g8-review/
    • I have really been nerding out on my desktop icons and feel compelled to share...

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I missed this when you first posted it, but those are awesome icons! I would normally prefer things to be uniform, but each of those icons seems to fit perfectly for the game! If I may ask though, what was your thought process on which icons are circular - MK makes sense - and which ones should be rectangular or square?
    • Microsoft Paint used to be my favorite Windows app as a kid, and it's still pretty good

      By WaltC · Posted

      What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact. Also, the clipping tool comes in handy, as well (hit print scrn on the keyboard and it activates immediately.)

      I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output! Memories...
