Official FOX Description:

Again facing relentless Terminators that will stop at nothing until John Connor, the future leader of the resistance, is eliminated, Sarah Connor stops running and starts fighting back against fate and the machines that are out for her son in the highly anticipated new series TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES premiering in January 2008 on FOX.
Unfolding where the film “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” leaves off, TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES finds SARAH (Lena Headey) and her 15-year-old son JOHN CONNOR (Thomas Dekker) alone in a dangerous world. As fugitives from the law, they are confronted by the ever-evolving technological enemy bent on destroying their lives, and perhaps the world. Balancing his inevitable fate as the possible savior of mankind and his current life as an ordinary high school student, John must learn what it takes to become the future leader of the people’s resistance. His only friend is CAMERON (Summer Glau), an enigmatic and otherworldly student at his high school who soon proves to be much more than his confidante – she assumes the role of Sarah and John’s fearless protector. Together, Sarah, John and Cameron, all extraordinary in their own right, attempt to become a “normal” family. On their trail are not only threats from the future, but an intelligent and tough FBI agent, JAMES ELLISON (Richard T. Jones), who just may become a powerful ally.

TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES represents an exciting reinvention of the “Terminator” film franchise, in which the strong and intrepid Sarah discovers that protecting her son and stopping the rise of the machines is more difficult than she had ever imagined.

Produced by C2 Pictures in association with Warner Bros. Television, TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES is executive-produced by Josh Friedman and John Wirth. James Middleton serves as consulting producer, while Toni Graphia serves as co-executive producer and Natalie Chaidez serves as a consulting producer for the series. The pilot was directed by David Nutter.

Unanswered Questions

  • What can the good terminator (you know, the hot young thing) really do? What does her version number enable?




Best Moments

  • Role call. The terminator works his way methodically down the list while the snot-nosed kids pipe off. Many a substitute teacher probably fantasized about that moment.

  • Uncovering all the secrets that the resistance planted in the safety deposit boxes built inside the bank.


Best Quotes

  • Sarah to Cameron: You might want to put those back in the holster.
  • Cameron to John: Come with me if you want to live.
  • John and Sarah to Cameron: No one is ever safe.
  • Sarah to John: Half an hour. One bag, plus the guns. I'll make pancakes.
  • Terminator to class: Class dismissed.
  • Cameron: Everybody on the floor. Please.

Trivia

  • This episode showed John and Sarah alive and trying to track down Sky-Net's creator in the year 2007. In the movies, Sarah Connor's predicted date of the apocalypse was August 29th, 1997. Apparently, after killing Dyson, and destroying the evidence from the original terminator sent to kill her in the eighties, she effectively postponed doomsday by more than ten years.
  • Just after Cromartie wakes up, we see brief footage of an 'Optimus Prime' style truck, which seems to serve no story related purpose. A Transformers catchphrase is 'more than meets the eye' which applies to this series as well.
