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 :)

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.

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.

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
