Fox To Pair TERMINATOR Monday Nights With Jack Bauer!!
SPOILER ALERT !!
I am – Hercules!!
The newly retitled “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles” will be paired with on Mondays in a slot originally earmarked for new episodes of “K-Ville.”
Premiere date for “Terminator” is now Jan. 14.
Variety’s story on the matter also mentions that “24” will have its 7th-season premiere the same evening. If Variety got that part right, it will mark the first time in years “24” has kicked off a season without a two-hour premiere.
Brunette Britisher Lena Headey plays the terminator-hating Connor. Summer Glau plays the hot and friendly cyborg from the future who gives her a hand.

duh.

could be a good night?..
-
You were first!! You were first...you just didn't believe in yourself...you just didn't...
-
um.. is this thing on?..
-
'bout jack and sarah-ah..
-
Why so late? is that because of the forthcoming WGA strike?
-
Isn't there going to be a writers strike (not the actors strike, this one snuck up on us) in, like, 2 weeks? Surely all 24 episodes can't be written by then. Oh, and the Sarah Connor show is alright, but they're going to reshoot scenes from the pilot episode (where shit happens at a school) which is kinda weak - best part of the whole episode. Anyway, yeah, that point is kinda moot - writers strikes! Its all going to hell, man, American Idol 5 nights a week instead! Game over, man! Game over!!
-
likely is that kiefer is in jail and they are worried about being behind on delivering a nonstop season...so this saves them 3 weeks instead of having the first 4 episodes all in 2 days
-
Terminator and Star Wars TV series? What are these people too lazy to make a movie?
-
enough reason to watch, right there
-
Kiefer has been able to get his jail sentence split in accordance with their filming breaks, but the 3 extra weeks will are a good precautionary move.
-
Just so you know. Also, it wasn't very good.

you know, we could use more hot and friendly cyborgs from the fu
by newc0253
especially the summer glau-shaped ones.
-
that is all.
-
looks like it was hastily cut and pasted into the webpage by a 3 year old. Why does it only have the black border on 3 sides? and Why did they change the talkback software, and we still don't have a god damned edit button? or tabbed pages for the talkbacks that reach into the thousands....
-
thought it was in all sorts of development problems with rejected africa shoots etc.
-
...as it is supposed to be a surprise in the first episode.
As much as I love 24, if the new season is anything like the last then they'll be introducing the Terminator show as the realistic one and 24 as the sci-fi one... -
We were in Orlando last week, and made a stop at Universal Studios, and saw the T-2:3-D show for the first time. Edward Furlong is the whiniest little kid I've ever seen. I know he's like 30 now, but damn he was annoying in that show.

Subliminal Ads Have Been Running For A Month Now, i think.
by jarjar_dinks
Has anyone else seen the two red dots that mysteriously appear during Kitchen Nightmares? Every episode so far has had them. I thought it was a camera problem but I'm starting to think it has something to do with Terminator. If this has been discussed already
--sorry. -
wont last and will be cancelled before most people even see it
-
Like all of Fox's new shows, it will last three episodes and then Fox will get cold feet and pull the plug. Too bad they do not have faith in their shows.
-
I was just thinking this morning that we are about a month into the Fall schedule and as far as I know nothing has been cancelled yet. Then again, 4 episodes is about what the networks usually use to determine if a new show stays or goes. I expect we will shortly be hearing about a few shows going on "hiatus", never to be heard from again.
-
who hasn't seen the pilot for the Sarah Connor Chronicles?
Summer did pretty well in it I thought. Not all Terminators should be big bulky men.. they are supposed to be infiltrators after all. I thought the male terminators were pretty weak though. -
is good news for her. I think she is VERY talented in some areas, but not as an actress. Can't believe more people aren't discussing the advent of this show...not a good sign imo.
-
Yes, I've noticed them during Kitchen Nightmares as well. Last night was the first time I made the connection to the upcoming Terminator series, though. It's getting pretty annoying and I won't watch the show because of it.

Lack of Talkback hating bodes well for this series, methinks
by zax2000
I've gotta say, this is the strangest run-up to a genre show that I can remember. Save for occassional, half-interested updates from Herc, there is a general sense of ambivilence towards the show from the denziens of AICN and other places online. Is it becuase T3 sucked so much ass that people are scorned and just refusing to notice it? Maybe the pilot that was leaked to us geeks over the summer was *just* good enough to keep the haters at bay, yet gave us too much continuity-alteration for geeks to be able to get really pumped for it... For what its worth, I am pretty excited for this show. By the end of the pilot I was kinda scratching my head a bit, but found myself thiking that this show is what T3 probably should have been. Though how the writers will stay away from the idea that Skynet & the humans seem to be waging a ful-scale "Time War" at this point is a curiosity of mine. (Come on, humans going back to the 1950s to plant future tech-ready parts in a bank just in case? Why not send Termintaors back to hijack all early technology and jump-start Skynet's creation?) Then again, maybe they will embrace it... I'd be really interested in a show that used each season to examine a different timeline... As for what we've seen so far, Summer didn't seem to fit the "typical" Terminator mold, but the idea that terminators can "learn" to be more human-like was a common thread through T2 & T3, so I can go with it. Obviousily she's gonna be our post-modern Data... Sarah & John both seemed fine, but Sarah better get to pumping iron. Dirty clothes, dusty-looking hair and mood lighting can only take you so far: If your arms don't look big enough to be able to arm-wrestle my 9 year-old brother, I ain't gonna buy that you can handle a shotgun... Come on, Fox, let's give this one a chance! Just don't bring in Arnold.
-
After the first show the Sara Connor Cronicals will drop production values down to Sci Fi Channel levels and we'll wind up with Flash Gorden all over again.And as for 24 I think we learned with the last season there are no new ideas for a show. Evil president, good president, couple atomic bombs have gone off, Evil Corporations, Jack has to shoot/kill friends, Jack finds love then loses love, deadly chemical/bio attack kills a lot of people, ect., ect, ect. Short of alians landing and trying to take over the US there's nothing else to do. That's why last season was so boreing.Give it up Fox, it's time to go with your ace in the hole, Dancing With The Stars Dogs with hose Shepard Smith. ARROOOOOW
-
if you just sit and watch. however if you over think things and are a h-core nerd, you might not like it so much. there's a cool twist at the end of the pilot, as well as the yummy lena headey and the terminator theme plays at the end of the episode... so yeah... i hope people watch it.

Summer Glau's appearance on Angel proves she is right for a Term
by tvguy4566
Stiff as board posture like Arnold - Check
Bad Eastern European accent like Arnold - Check
Poor acting like Arnold - Check
The only thing missing was the humor of Arnold.
Actually, I don't think Summer is that bad of an actress. She isn't going to win any Oscars in her lifetime, but there are a lot worse actors out there in successful shows and movies. At least she is hot enough that you don't care at times.
If they wanted a talented actress from the Whedonverse, they should have gone with Amy Ackers. But then again, she might be too old to pull of a teenager. Maybe Michelle Tractenberg, although she played a whiney teenager so well in Buffy that most fans hate her. -
but arnie is from austria. hence"the bad european accent".
-
Pilot's like some forgotten thing from the '80s. It moves fast, doesn't have that washed-out look, and dispenses with most of the angsty crap from T2 and T3. And Summer Glau is definitely a hotter robot chick than Bionica Lewinsky.
-
hahha, awesome post. "I'm mad! GRRRRR!!!"
-
Point still remains. GRRRRR!!!
-
Not sure why people think she is European?
-
I'll never get tired of watching female's kick ass, sorry. I just watched Bionic Woman kick Isiah Washington's ass and it was great. I guess you'd prefer watching two men going at it (wow, that hasn't been done a billion times), perhaps with the secret hope that they miss a punch and start slurping tongues.
-
So that must mean that you're not a sexist, closet homosexual. My bad.
-
"Billy, do you like movies about gladiators?"
-
and I didn't think that I would. It's not perfect, but it's pretty darn good and true to the spirit of T2 (which will always be the benchmark that all Terminator projects are judged by). Much better than Bionic Woman turned out.
-
Ah-Nuld has a bad European accent now? lol. Whats the IQ of most posters here? In the negatives?
-
the whole premise is ridiculous, considerng you know what happens in T3
-
Summer Glau played a Russian ballerina on Angel and did a pretty bad fake accent. As for Arnold, I know his European accent is real, but come on.
-
Apparently, it is pretty low since no one can take a joke. Who's accent gets mocked more in the world than Ah-nuld?
-
Terminators get a bad rap. A few kill people and suddenly "They're all bad". Come on people it's the 21st century! Get with the times.
-
That's what I think anyway. If you've actually watched the pilot you'll know she's right for it, as are Thomas Dekker and Lena Headley. It's reassuring because they won't be able to do too much in the way of action throughout the series.
-
It's a thing called the internet, it has all kinds of crazy stuff, even rumor has it, naked women...
-
...and I'm gonna whine like a bitch because nothing is ever any good! Not Sarah Conner, not Sumemr Glau, not Jar Jar, not Transformers, not anything! I wanna just bitch and moan! Someone pay attention to me! (Yes that's what most of you complainers sound like)
-
there will actually be something worth watching on Monday nights in 2008? I ask that only half-kiddingly as 24 is looking to rebound after an atrocious season, and Heroes is mired in a sophomore slump. Origins is going to fill in last part of the season anyway, and seeing as how Kring can't even manage to put new characters worthy of interest on the main show, the likelihood of having good ones for the addendum doesn't look promising.
-
where shit happens at the school? aren't they used to school shootings over there by now?
-
just so peeps realize it's from a good movie line. Not a good sign. This crap belongs on Oxygen. Probably going to be another estrogen fest like Bionic cryer.
-
Or was it?
-
Actor Garret Dillahunt (The Assasination of Jesse James, No Country for Old Men, Deadwood) will play a terminator in the series. You can hear an interview with Mr. Dillahunt where he discusses his role and his upcoming Fall films at:
http://blogtalkradio.com/hostpage.aspx?show_id=100188 -
from the clips Ive seen she seems to emote too much for a robot. Love Ms. Glau though-that whedon knows how to cast his cute and quirky looking women. First he introduces ,e to Alyson Hannigan and then that. Joss-I owe ya one man.
-
Best freakin' line of the whole show!
-
oh and battlestar galactica called they want their show back.
-
Thank goodness they changed the title and added the word "Terminator" so people won't confuse this with all of those other Sarah Connor shows. Like that one other Sarah Connor thing or the one from that other thing with a Sarah Connor in it or the one with the actress named Sarah Connor...
-
...on the kindness of Alonzos
-
I predicted it would be gone by Nov sweeps. The magic 8ball really does work!
-
I remember seeing countless promos for it before it's first episode--and not once since. I just assumed it got pulled off the schedules right away.
-
Something that most of hollywood has been incapable of figuring out.
So they might as well stick with nudity and poor action cause thats the only thing they're any good at. -
...yea, I saw a promo for Kville in Game 7 last night--first one I have seen in a LONG time.So, either it is doing so well they don't even need to promo it regularly, or they don't want to waste valuable advertising time on a show they are gonna dump anyway.I figure it is the second one...
-
so I have no bias either way, and no basis to say it is good or bad, etc.I was mainly curious about the Huge amount of promotion and hype just evaporating so fast.And, since it is on Fox, well, an early first season cancellation is sort of a badge of honor, since that is what they do to quality shows. If it gets another season, well, it is probably crap. That's just Fox.
