Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (FOX)

Hopes were high for this high-action drama after the nine-episode first season impressed at midseason, with an average of 11.4 million viewers. The second season has struggled in the more competitive Fall lineup, premiering on September 8 with just 6.34 million and averaging around 5.5 million since. The show is now expected to be axed within months, if not weeks.

Lets hope they are wrong. Prison Break averages about 5 million viewers and Heros dropped to around 8. Unless they have something better to replace it with axing it isn't going to help them very much. All ratings are down, with the economy the way it is I'm sure a lot of americans don't feel like watching tv. Doesn't meant the show(s) is to blame. Correct me if I'm wrong but the ratings only take american viewers into account right? Not internationally. If they really despise it that much at least let it run through the full season, then axe it. At least that way they could profit off DVD sales, whose really going to buy half a season?

Besides, if watching Weeds has taught me anything, when ratings slump, get Mary-Louise-Parker naked. So common Fox, lets get some naked women already.

Well if they get it out of the time slot of Dancing with the stars (stupid show) we would not be in this mess. Move it to Wednesdays or something. JUST don't cancel it.

Yeah that show gets insane viewing figures.

Fringe also has the same time slot, and you know J.J. Abrams can hook his teeth in the populous with his name alone.

I really doubt the same people that watch dancing with the stars would watch Terminator. But switching days would be a good idea, Wednesdays would be good, Tuesday would be bad as Fringe is doing quite well as far as ratings go. They should do reruns later in the week if they wanted an extra ratings boost for the same show. Shame no one is going to listen to our suggestions. Now I just hope they at least let the season run its course, I'll be ****ed if they don't have a 3rd season, but at least finish the second :(

Because so many of you, our most devoted fans, have been asking, we wanted to set the record straight!

While the fate of the show past production on episode thirteen is still unclear, FOX has given us the go-ahead to write two more additional episodes for this season ? fourteen and fifteen.

We are hard at work writing those episodes and await news of a potential pickup for the full ?back nine? (additional episodes to complete the season) in the near future. We?re crossing our fingers (and dotting our i?s) that we?ll have more good news to share with you soon?

In the meantime, keep tuning in! Get your friends interested! And thanks for all of your support.

Only problem with that, is it isn't Fox talking. Its the shows writers. I'm starting to doubt they will can this season. Unless it picks up at the end I also doubt there will be a 3rd season. Considering how much Terminator is on Fox's site I don't think the want to get rid of it so quickly. Its all over the site more than any other show, between ads and contests and what not it seems clear they appreciate having it on their network. Frankly I'm a little surprised, I would have expected Fringe to be all over it. They barely even mention Prison Break. Sucks that most of this thread now is about whether or not it will be canned. When it reality it should be about Summer Glau pictures, Rappy, whats the hold up!

    • Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote

      Poll: Grand Theft Auto VI price predictions, cast your vote by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe After years of waiting, Rockstar will be solidifying the launch date of Grand Theft Auto VI with the launch of pre-orders next week. While the studio has confirmed a date for this occasion, it is yet to attach a price to the highly anticipated game. So let's see what our readers think it will cost at launch. The Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders will kick off on June 25 for digital and physical editions. Unless some last-minute changes happen, the release date will be November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. Unfortunately, there's still no information about a PC version from the developer or the publisher Take-Two. Now the question becomes, how much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost at launch? The game is predicted by some analysts to be the biggest launch of an entertainment product ever. With the amount of hype that has been built behind it and with ballooning development costs, Take-Two may price this Grand Theft Auto entry differently from other AAA titles. The current price of a AAA game is $69.99. That norm almost rose to $79.99 before calming down. But with such a massive release, Grand Theft Auto VI may be the game that pushes the boundary again. It's also possible that Take-Two keeps the price relatively low to increase the number of players that jump in early and keep them hooked on Grand Theft Auto Online to spend on microtransactions for years to come. Keep in mind that the below poll is asking for a prediction of the standard edition price, not a deluxe or any other special edition that Take-Two will introduce for additional benefits. Also, there is the chance of the company splitting up the campaign and online portions. If you think that will happen, put your vote on what you think will be the total cost of the two. Poll Poll: How much will Grand Theft Auto VI cost? $59.99 $69.99 $79.99 $89.99 $100 or more Submit Vote If you have a very specific prediction in mind, sound off in the comments below.
