Discussion: Now that Season 1 is over, what's your opinion on the T:SCC series?

"The show owes a lot to the production values and storylines of the T2: Judgement Day. They've done a lot to develop the storyline of a Terminator that can become more human, which was a central theme of that film.

The acting is solid: Lena Headley is amazing, seriously tough as nails. I started hating Brian Green, but he's a seriously bad-ass character who shines as the "survivor-time-traveller". The Dekker kid has really grown on me.

Greatest lines in TSCC Season Finale:
- John: "So, like you guys do this a lot in the future. Sneak around around at night and all?"
- Dereck: (deadpan) "We do this a lot."

They're setting this up well for a movie, which was rumored with Christian Bale (maybe as John Connor, maybe not) - but TV B-list actors never get to be in the big show, not against the likes of CB anyway

The best parts of this series are where the past and the future connect - not like we haven't seen the "don't mess up the future" cliches a million times. But scenes like in the Finale with John looking at his 5 year-old father (Kyle) are pretty touching, and scratch that familiar sci-fi itch which is such a great part of this franchise.

Brilliant Season Premiere, too - great combination of action and acting, plus the time-travel twist:
- Cameron: "You can't send weapons back. You send someone back to build it." (and it took 40 years to build ONE gun and a time portal) ... BRILLIANT!!
