[Cancelled] Sarah Connor Chronicles (Terminator Series)


Recommended Posts

It'll be renewed but we won't find out for awhile, and there's been a drought of TSCC news so Summer's been keeping us company ;)

Anyone know when the BluRay release will be? I remember seeing the dvd pop up for pre order but I don't recall seeing a release date. Gotta pick up my copy to support the team :) But dvd :no: hd :yes:

Yes I am bumping this thread but no I am not bumping it with summer glau picture so those people who whine (you know who you are!) can rest easy! :p

I just rewatched the finale and you know the second time around makes me want a new season so bad...the ending is just so perfect!

I'll be re-watching it after I go see Salvation or maybe just before. Only watched Season 1 once so I'll be re-watching that again. Even though I want another season so bad, our Terminator needs are pretty damn good already. 3 classic movies, 2 tv seasons and 1 new movie and 2 more on the way. While we don't need another, it would certainly follow the trend, 3 classic movies, 3 tv seasons and 3 new movies, 3rd times the charm right? ;)

You consider the third a classic? :blink:

While "T3" was really good, I don't consider it a "classic" compared to the likes of "T2". Each to their own though :)

Radish™

I completely agree, I don't consider "T2" a "classic" compared to "T1", but T2 is bloody good. :laugh:

Haha no no, not a "classic" I meant "old"

The classic series vs the new series.

3rd definitely no where near as good as the 1 and 2, but it's part of the same story arc more or less.

Oh right, sorry, I read that wrong. :rolleyes:

"Vintage" :laugh:

I say "T3" rounded off the trilogy quite well.

Radish?

T3 gets a lot of hate, while it wasn't nearly as good as the others I still liked it. The same can be said for the tv series. They do a lot of things wrong but I'm a Terminator fan at heart so I love em all. T3 didn't have the same suspense as the other's had. T1 had the best story and T2 had the best action/suspense. I probably liked T2 the best but I love everything Terminator :$

The ending for T3 was my favorite part, aside from Kristanna nekkid ;) It was a great ending and if it was the last, a good way to end it. But after seeing everything McG has done I'm very happy it wasn't the last.

I have no problem with T3, but I do understand how McG and Josh Friedman would decided to just make there movies, and tv shows based on T1, and T2. It wasn't on par with those other two movies, and the story wasn't nearly as good.

I am just not a fan of this show like I SHOULD BE, I mean it's Terminator and I own season 1.

However, I am probably not going to own Season 2, at least not until it's on for very cheap. (Like 50%)

I just not really a fan of season 2. I watched it, and I can't watch it. Because there is no action not even that much suspense or good acting, IMO. It's not that good to me.

A regular drama about Terminator doesn't work.

If there is season 3, better add MORE Action/suspense!!!

Everyone can have there opinion of the show, but the show really hasn't ever had a lot of action. But the best part of the show is that it requires you to think about what's going on. The show is more about the character than it is about the action- The movies are about the action. There was a lot of slow parts about season two, but I also thought that season two also had a lot of really great episodes. One of the best was Today is the day part 1 and 2- I think that if there is a season 3 (which we'll know in six days) that there might be a little bit more action but probably not more than what was in season 2.

this.

:p

It probably won't be renewed, because the lack of action/suspense affects a LOT of other viewers too, not just myself.

Terminator IS about action, without action, it would just be another show that has nothing to do with Terminator.

I just don't see how MAJORITY will accept it being a Non-action show, bearing the name 'Terminator'.

And, no matter how smart you say the show is, definitely not smart like LOST!

Well I do agree a lot of people got turned off because there wasn't much action- I think anyone that is looking for this show to be the miniature version of Terminator 2 is going to be turned off by the show. But I mean it's a tv show they can't have lots of action in every episode they do have limits on what they can put into a episode because they have limits on money and time per episode. I think the show had an awesome ending to season 2. I don't mean just the season finale- if you watch episodes 217-222 you'll see that it's some of the tv that has been on in a good while. I watch a lot of scifi, and scifi dramas and those last six episodes were in my book as good as anything the X-files ever put on TV.

The reason I brought up the X-files is because just like SCC the X-files always started out slow, and ended very well. It was always about the characters, and story and not so much about the action. I would say that TSCC has probably a 50/50 chance of renewal right now. A lot of people are saying that Doll House is probably over. I have also read that only two of the new Pilots are probably going to be aired Glee, and some other show that I can't remember right now.

It looks like there might not be a chance that TSCC will be renewed. Fox has said (EW news) that Cleveland and Glee, Human Target and Sons of Tucson are on board for new shows. If this is true then there's 1-2 hours of time left in the Fall, and Spring schedule and if Fox picks up the other two pilots they're looking at you can say good bye to this show at least on Fox. There's rumors (not from good sources) that scifi might consider picking the show up. But right now even if Fox renews the show season three might be it's last- The only way it would have to survive is if more than one of the new pilots just completely suck and they cancel them.

It seems that Fox will be letting everyone know on the 18th what there Fall and Spring schedule is but the problem is that we have no idea what shows will be airing this Fall until the 18th so Fox might give TSCC a full 22 episodes if it's in the Fall, but if it's the Spring then we're going to probably only see at the least 13 episodes, and it will probably be the last season.

The only thing I'm wondering about is if it's even possible for the show to be picked up by another network. What kind of contracts do Josh Friedman and the actors have with Fox? But it seems to me at least that if Josh Friedman is able to start looking for another network I think Syfy would be a good place to start. I hope Fox puts the show up for this Fall so we might get a 3rd, and 4th season, but with these guys you can never tell.

Just wanted to say that I agree with what you said kaotic :p The story is one of the main reasons i watch the show and i just don't think it would as good with a lot of action. You can't just have 22 episode of action because you need to develop a central story arc.

Jedi, you seem to want to have more action on a lot of shows :p

    • Rufus 4.15.2393 Beta 2 by Razvan Serea Rufus is a small utility that helps format and create bootable USB flash drives, such as USB keys/pendrives, memory sticks, etc. Despite its small size, Rufus provides everything you need! Oh, and Rufus is fast. For instance it's about twice as fast as UNetbootin, Universal USB Installer or Windows 7 USB download tool, on the creation of a Windows 7 USB installation drive from an ISO (with honorable mention to WiNToBootic for managing to keep up). It is also marginally faster on the creation of Linux bootable USBs from ISOs. A non-exhaustive list of Rufus supported ISOs is available here. It can be especially useful for cases where: you need to create USB installation media from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, UEFI, etc.) you need to work on a system that doesn't have an OS installed you need to flash a BIOS or other firmware from DOS you want to run a low-level utility Rufus 4.15.2393 Beta 2 changelog: Add RISC-V 64 support to UEFI:NTFS Improve the guards for using the "silent" option Improve the ability to cancel during write retries Improve progress reporting for compressed image extraction Fix unrestricted XML entity expansion and integer overflow in ezxml parser (courtesy of @esadowski4) [GHSA-55r2-34wg-8mv9] Fix "silent" Windows installation failing at 75% in most cases [#2960] Fix a crash during boot when using UEFI:NTFS on Snapdragon X based ARM64 platforms [#2934] Fix the first WUE option always being checked by default [#2965] Fix an infinite loop when using Windows ISOs that contain multiple WIMs Fix "Enable runtime UEFI media validation" checkbox not always being properly enabled Other WUE improvements/fixes for OneDrive removal and username validation (with thanks to @christian8641) [#2984, #2991] Download: Rufus 4.15 Beta 2 | 1.9 MB (Open Source) Links: Rufus Home Page | Project Page @GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Tixati 3.43 by Razvan Serea Tixati is a free and easy to use BitTorrent client featuring detailed views of all seed, peer, and file transfer properties. Also included are powerful bandwidth charting and throttling capabilities, and a full DHT implementation. Tixati is one of the most advanced and flexible BitTorrent clients available. And unlike many other clients, Tixati contains NO SPYWARE, NO ADS, and NO GIMMICKS. Tixati portable version is meant to run on a USB flash drive or other portable media. It stores all its configuration files in the same folder as the executable binary files, and all file paths are stored in a format relative to the program executable folder. It is important you do not delete the "tixati_portable_mode.txt" file within the executables folder. This file is what triggers Tixati to run in portable mode. (The executable binaries are actually the same as the standard edition binaries.) When running the portable edition from a USB flash drive, especially one that is formatted in FAT16/FAT32, you may experience some lag when initially loading a new transfer. This is because initializing and allocating large files on flash-based media consumes a greater amount of time and resources compared to a conventional hard-drive. Tixati has the following features: detailed views of all aspects of the swarm, including peers, pieces, files, and trackers support for magnet links, so no need to download .torrent files if a simple magnet-link is available super-efficient peer choking/unchoking algorithms ensure the fastest downloads peer connection encryption for added security full DHT (Distributed Hash Table) implementation for trackerless torrents, including detailed message traffic graphs and customizable event logging advanced bandwidth charting of overall traffic and per-transfer traffic, with separate classification of protocol and file bytes, and with separate classification of outbound traffic for trading and seeding highly flexible bandwidth throttling, including trading/seeding proportion adjustment and adjustable priority for individual transfers and peers bitfield graphs that show the completeness of all downloaded files, what pieces other peers have available, and the health of the overall swarm customizable event logging for each download, and individual event logs for all peers within the swarm expert local file management functions which allow you to move files to a different partition even while downloading is still in progress 100% compatible with the BitTorrent protocol Windows and Linux-GTK native versions available Tixati 3.43 changelog: Several major DHT improvements Added several screening heuristics to filter malicious DHT nodes, prevent Sybil floods Rewrote DHT search algorithms to add support for multi-path lookups Improved DHT logging, more details in several error messages Extended timeout lengths for outgoing queries over I2P Added incoming query / response per second to DHT table status display Updated Regex engine to PCRE2 Faster Search function, scans channel user profiles in much less time Fixed problems with file name parsing and date handling in RSS Faster and more accurate RSS filtering and episode number detection Several optimizations to global text processing functions, such as UTF-8 cleaning, line splitting, and token parsing Complete update of port-mapping UPNP/NAT-PMP engine, added PCP support, mapping over VPN support, and more Several refinements to default gateway detection on Windows / Android, which is used for port-mapping Support for IPv6 interface-scoped addresses, which is sometimes needed for IPv6 gateway detection and port mapping Full support for PCP port remapping, added backup zero-port query in case requested port is rejected New UPNP/NAT-PMP Monitor in Help > Diagnostics New reflected local port/location tracker that analyzes DHT replies to detect true port/location and NAT mapping type New TCP/UDP Ports monitor in Help > Diagnostics, with several statistic and information tabs, and a detailed event log Calculated/reflected local port is now used for port parameter in tracker queries and peer handshake Fixed several problems with Linux Wayland compatibility Completely replaced tray icon functions in Linux, new SNI implementation is now the default with GSI backup Implemented full DBus-Menu server to be used by new SNI tray icon implementation Replaced Linux tray balloon notification DBus client Rewrote auto-shutdown DBus interface for Linux Rewrote sleep inhibit DBus interface for Linux Dropped deprecated Linux dbus-glib dependencies Completely new Windows asynchronous file handling, now using IOCP model with several block-alignment optimizations Better handling of system network resets and interface down/up cycles Added option to fully clear configuration in Settings > Import/Export Remember last option checkboxes when using Import/Export Fixed minor I2P incoming connection routing problems Much faster I2P vanity host name finder Much faster channel user vanity key finder Raised length limit for torrent tracker remote failure messages to 120 from 64 Fixed problems setting download location on a torrent before the meta info is resolved Added location/MOC paths to category pane tooltips Several minor Web Interface fixes Refinements to static and scrolling ellipsizing layout routines Several fixes and improvements to single and multi-line text edit controls Many other minor fixes throughout the user interface A major overhaul of the Android framework has also been done: API target raised to 35, page alignment set to 16K Rewrote all inset processing routines Full rewrite of foreground service, application, and main activity objects New permission request routines Added multi-cast lock request before UPNP/LPDP discovery operations Fixed file permission and locking problems when loading .torrent from web browsers Fixed problems with Z-ordering of modal / non-modal and popup windows Fixed handling of back gesture on newer OS Added status bar icon

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.
    • 26H2 absolutely will support ARM Windows just not on devices that came with 26H1. This is evident by the fact I am running 26H2, which on my MacBook Neo and Surface Pro 12 (inch), within a VM.
