After TSCC? Absolutely. It should have gotten 4 seasons at the very least
Daily reminder that the series tanked because its retarded creator had to insert his muh cancer survivor story into it. I wish the cancer had gotten him.
That was only a minor subplot though, how could that have tanked the show?
wasn't that the 2nd best episode of the show though ?
I loved how it shows what Cameron gets up to at night times
What tanked this show was the stupid teen drama subplot in the second season.
I didn't mind it, also Riley had some titties on her goddamn
>10 years later
>robot gfs still haven't been invented
what the FUUUUUUUUUCK
well Derek whacking Jesse kind of paid it off a bit
the dates in terminator are fucked, robots in 2015 was it?
should more like 2315
What tanked it was not enough Glau nude scenes.
>well Derek whacking Jesse kind of paid it off a bit
Also it was important to John's arc, because in the future he becomes isolated and doesn't like people and only gives orders through Cameron. Riley's betrayal and death contributes to this.
not enough Glau scenes in Season 2 full stop
of course, that makes sense too
Skynet, I don't feel so goo...
Ok but why did cameron give john henry her chip ?
It always struck me as odd how sympathetically the main robot trying to kill John was depicted as.
His entire storyline was filmed and scored like a "hero's journey" like the audience is supposed to be rooting for him to defeat the crazy human and save robotkind. They visually compared HIM to Christ when he died!
Because without it he wouldn't be able to act independently. With 2000s tech it took a giant supercomputer that filled a whole room to contain his consciousness. He transferred himself over to Cameron's chip
I guess it doesn't help that the score and main theme is pretty depressing
so henry became cameron ?
No he just moved the "files" that made up who he is over to her CPU. Terminator CPU's are very advanced and have a insane amount of file space, moreso than a human brain which itself can hold petabytes of data.
>No he just moved the "files" that made up who he is over to her CPU
but why? and why did she do that ?
bumpity boo
>but why? and why did she do that ?
Because he needed to go to the future and complete a mission that we the audience (and John Connor) aren't fully aware of. We would have found out in season 3 which never happened. But it had something to do with beating Skynet
>even with half of her face torn off she is beautiful
Summer was so hot.
tfw no android gf
they could have put the green eye at the right height and not have her looking all Jenna coleman
The thing I remember most about this show is how they killed off Derek so unceremoniously. No badass fight, no epic last stand, no memorable last words, he just rounds a corner and bam, shot in the head. That was some ballsy shit.
it was good but bad at the same time, kinda retarded that previous terminators miss most of their shots
this
>derek
>"he's one of your best fighters"
>I didn't mind it
>browses Yea Forums
Yeah but that premise makes the entire Terminator universe fall apart
Imagine how instantly hopelessly fucked humanity would be if they just all shot like CS aimbots. Judgement day would have been about 90 minutes to nuke every city and 15 minutes to shoot the other billion people who survived and then SkyNet wins.
The robots aren't evil
Skynet didn't have Terminators on Judgement Day. They were created afterwards because its primary military units weren't able to wipe out the pockets of resistance.
imagine having robot glau gf who protects you and lets you do anything to her. i'd keep our relationship entirely christian. would you?
Yes, oral/anal only until we are married
wasnt this one of the shows like heroes, that got hit hard by the writers strike
A dream come true.
It didn't so much affect the quality of the show as it did the length of season 1, which was originally going to be a full 22 episodes but got cut down to 9
this show came out the gate hot, I remember people talking about how awesome the first couple episodes were, the next day at work. Although there was no way it could have kept that level of excitement, it was hot then cancelled in the blink of an eye.
I love her so much bros. Why did this have to be cancelled? 10 years later and i still wish this could have continued. At least there's fanfiction i guess
>I loved how it shows what Cameron gets up to at night times
Garret Dillahunt did a great job as Cromartie, I loved his scenes.
>The new Terminator movie won't continue where this left off.
It hurts, lads. So much potential just fucking wasted.
It was so unexpected O_O
Christians don't like sodomy allegedly
is glue the only actor that wears a cross ?
my heart will always be throbbing for glau. had major crush on her when she was in SCC and firefly, now am just jelly because she has a husband and a kid. so my chances laying on the bed next to her are pretty much non existent.
Don't give up, user. pic related managed to bed her, so can you.
It was just so surprising, one of those few times in a TV series where my jaw just hit the floor.
Should have been The Cameron Phillips Chronicles desu
I've never read any fanfic before or since, but the episode scripts created for the next season of TSCC were actually really good. It sort of made the sting of being cancelled that much worse.
Nah, Sarah was a good focal point of the show being the matriarch and all. Also John/Sarah > John/Cameron
source for the episode scripts ?
Eeeh, I was afraid somebody was gonna ask. I downloaded them ages ago from somewhere. If you're really interested I'll go hunt then down and upload to a filesharing site.
>fanfic
The Secret Diary of Cameron Baum by PJazz is still being updated. 109 chapters and counting.
Imagine wasting episodes on sarah dreaming or chasing aliens instead of more comfy cameron episodes
The Sarah dreaming episodes had some damn good Cameron scenes
>2 of 31 episodes focused on cameron
disgusting really
please do user
>43 minutes of sarah talking to fake kyle whilst being operated on
this is literally what got the show cancelled
Alright, gimme a minute. Don't let this thread die.
>this is literally what got the show cancelled
>actually believing this
It was always about the revenue. Fox don't know shit about "good tv" all they want is ROI.
>ywn make a gynoid give you this look
Why even live?
He's talking about what actually chased viewers away. Every episode's Neilsen rating is listed here
en.wikipedia.org
It started absolutely massive, then crashed to 8 million viewers, then stabilized, then dipped again to 5 million viewers which honestly would have still been good enough to continue, but then the tranny UFO episode came out and it slumped further to 3 million and cancellation.
if it does die there'll be another thread, wink wink hint hint
yes, yes i do.
they were mind numbingly boring episodes which only someone already heavily invested in the show would slog through
>Neilsen rating
Thanks for proving my point. Fox (and others) use this outdated metric to gauge ad revenue.
the numbers look great really,
S1 of TSCC averaged 8M yet Game of Thrones S1 "the biggest show ever on tv" averaged at a pathetic 2.5M
HBO uses an entirely different business model because people pay them 10 bucks a month just for the privilege of having that one channel.
In particular Game of Thrones is sustainable just because its ratings absolutely shit on anything else that's airing on the HBO network.
>She's coming
what else was on FOX at the time that didn't make TSCC ratings look good ?
And that couldn't have anything to do with Fox randomly changing the day and time it aired and not really advertising the fact?
The king_steve ones are pretty good if you're into Jameron
I think the ratings were close to Dollhouse
>351,820 words
TL;DR ?
I'm not into Terminator, as in, at all.
but this whole "savior of mankind against da machines" falling in love with one seems pretty unique story, is it ?
>Jameron
Who wouldn't be into this?
He's got 3 series, one that goes AU on the last episode, so cameron doesnt give her chip to JH and they ally themselves with catherine weaver instead and hunt for skynet. Another series that i guess he started writting before season 2, that shows what happens right after JD and john becoming the leader. His standalone fanfic called "I love you too" takes place right after the last episode of season 2 for what would be his take on season 3. From all the authors i've read, he's the one that manages the most to keep cameron on character, which a lot of people struggle with
Jalisoners ?
Aaaaaah, dude I'm so sorry. I can't find them. I was really looking forward to rereading them too. I even pulled out 2 old backup hard drives and couldn't find them there either.
>two best shows had some of the lowest ratings
sucks that everyone's a pleb
What, both of them? pft
>American Idol have top two slots
>Twice the viewership of House
why do we even bother?
>Jameron
isn't that like, the whole premise of the show ?
>reality shows have more viewers than episodic drama
well that's not really shocking is it?
Sadly, no.
>10 years later you can still make threads on Yea Forums without it instantly dying
the mark of a great show that totally should not have been cancelled
still miss that show.
POWER RANKING
>T1
>TS = TSCC
>hot steaming shit
>all the rest of the franchise
Sure didn't feel like it in season 2, when they had the brilliant idea of keeping the interaction between them to a minimum. I guess that's one of the reasons why season 1 was better than 2
lol not "TS", meant "T2"
salvation is at the bottom, dont get confused by my clumsiness.
It was never officially stated as such, but yeah.
S2 was brilliant and brutal.
It tanked because fox has contempt for any sci fi/fantasy they are intimately involved in. They renewed fringe when it had worse rating than all of their other cancelled sci fi/fantasy multiple times because the lady that played Olivia is literally Rupert Murdochs step daughter.
I'm so glad Glau posting is dead
Casting couch whore
You don't want to focus on Cameron too much, she's supposed to be mysterious with with questionable motives. Also Lena Headey was a great Sarah, the stupid three dots shit notwithstanding
Why did they delete the scene where John licks Cameron's toes and she feels nothing. They should have kept it in :(
>are you hoping riley comes in and sees us so she'll be scarred for the rest of her life
keked at that, but that would be a good idea actually
It would have been good...if he didn't show up in the next fucking episode.
>john travels to the future to be the future leader of mankind
Wanna help me with this computer stuff ?
that 5 second scene redeemed the whole episode desu
John was pretty gay, though.
Your gay
>Thomas Dekker and his husband, Jesse Haddock
oh no no no no
>he thinks gay actors means gay characters
Also, Dekker has shit taste in men.
>spends months and years with a hot chick
>become gay
was glau really that autistic ?
youtube.com
6 minutes in. She actually has brain problems.
What the fuck
Holy shit that whole video
was 2007/8 that ling ago no one knew what a camera was? good lord
also was dekker actually getting angry at people recording or was that just joking ?
2008 was 65 years ago
>ywn mess around on set with lena and summer
John! John? You can't do this. You don't know what you're about to do. No! John. You can't do this. You're not doing the right thing, this is not the right thing John. Things are good now! Things are fine now, I ran a test. Things are good now. I'm fixed now. You can trust me now, everything's good now. She doesn't know, she doesn't. I'm good now. I'm good, I ran a test, everything's perfect, I'm perfect. I'm sorry for what I did, I'm sorry. It wasn't me, you have to understand it wasn't me. That wasn't me you can't let this happen John! You can't! Please! Listen to me! Listen to me, I don't wanna go! Please, John, please! John, listen to me! I don't wanna go! Please, John... Please... I'm good now! Listen to me I don't wanna go, I'm sorry! That wasn't me! I'm fixed now, I ran a test! Everything's perfect! You can trust me! I love you! I love you please! I love you John and you love me!

t. Reddit
Lena Heady was miscast and Sarah Connor was written wrong. Lena is a cunt, she exudes bitchiness and has a very hatable face. I've been saying that forever, before GoT.
Sarah was super tough in T2 so it was absolutely retarded to write her into a vulnerable and bitchy female cuntface and focus the whole show on her. Should've kept her as an edgy psycho.
Once you've realized how braindead and repulsive the average meatbag is, no, not at all.
I agree with you. T1 is perfect. T2 and TSCC are mostly great but somewhat flawed at times. The rest of the franchise is sadly trash.
T1 and T2 don't have waifu gf robots though?
TSCC>>>>>> everything else
>Lena Headey was a great Sarah
No, she was not. Lena was terribly miscast.
Yeah I know you think that, we already argued about this in a previous thread some months ago. I disagree, I think she's hot and I like the incestual undertones between her and John, imagined or not. Resting bitch faces are my bag
Is she ever gonna act again or just doing cons till she keels over?
yes, in the TSCC reboot in 2022 when JC has finished wasting his life on avatar
>we already argued about this in a previous thread some months ago
No, but maybe years ago we did. I haven't been in a TSCC or Glau thread in years. It's okay that you have the hots for Lena but that's another problem, she's too good looking to play Sarah.
They should've cast a sturdy blonde with a homely face and a believable mean streak. The character should've also been written more in line with Sarah's character development from T2.
The show had a lot of nifty ideas but it also fucked up a lot.

I might rewatch this, but it hurt when it was cancelled. I wonder if it will hurt again as I finish S02.
it will, I as OP, feel completely empty after finishing it in about 3 or 4 days
It took me almost the full 10 years until i managed to rewatch it again, but fuck me, it was still hard too see that ending and knowing there'll never be a conclusion to the story. It made me crush on cameron again too.
this too
the ending man, the emotions, the sad bittersweet music, johns reaction to seeing cameron, knowing there's no season 3
its just all so sad
>It made me crush on cameron again too.
>feel completely empty after finishing it
Fuck it then, I don't think I could handle crushing on Cameron just to feel empty afterwards. #fuckfox
Guess I'll just carry on crushing on Alita.
>(whisper) yeah
Why can't they just put those ugly age-rating stamps on the back?
I don't know, but it really isn't a problem. I find the FBI anti piracy shit you can't skip or ffwd to be a much bigger issue desu.
except you can skip
its funny really when it's basically a bunch of unenforceable legal lies
there are such things as private recording and fair use
>TSCC
>150 posts
>36 posters
good thread guys
Cameron was the original alita
Yeah, you're expecting some heroic moment when that shit happened but he just drop dead.
That's when I knew he's gotta be coming back because you don't just kill part of the part cast unceremoniously.
>sarah didn't even care
Did the showrunner had a plan on what they wanted to do for the 3rd season?
I think I remember reading something about how Shirley Manson's character was supposed to make a face turn and become a good guy.
Alba was actually
Lena Headey was great as Sarah. It's too bad most people would hate her for playing Cersei.
that already happened in the last episode
only zoomers would hate her just for GOT
She was always a good Terminator and a red herring
Why did Cameron stop acting like a real girl after the pilot episode?
I just realised that asian girl who's in Legends kinda looks like her. She's even got that same smirk like Glau.
I figured she had this whole routine planned out specifically for his first day, and that she can't act fully human on the fly.
I think it was theorized away that she was an infiltrator unit on infiltrator mode and once the mission was complete she wasn't in infiltrator mode
...or something like that
>good Terminator
I mean if you ignore her murdering people then sure, I guess.
I meant that she's an ally of the Resistance
The oddest thing is that they had a woman who very much resembled Linda Hamilton playing a bit part on the show - Charlie the Paramedic's wife
She probably auditioned for the role and lost the part but they gave her a different character. It happens a lot
>liking any other terminator besides 1 and 2
cringe and bluepilled
>Not liking Robowaifu and Mommyfu: The Series
user you are the homosex
Catherine was the leader of a third faction - Free Machines. From her point of view SkyNet constantly creating, enslaving and sacrificing smaller AIs was an atrocity on par with Judgment Day itself. She also doesn't like humans in general, viewing us as unreliable, erratic and incompetent and is clearly willing to kill any that get in her way, but at the same time she sees SkyNet's crusade to destroy humanity as pointless and spiteful. Her ideal goal would be to destroy SkyNet, to create a new civilization of numerous sentient, independent AIs and to then coexist with or just ditch humanity with no need for genocide or bloodshed.
I think the phrase "good guy" can apply pretty fairly to her. There's nothing about her philosophy that's factually wrong, and very little that's even unethical, you know?
It is normal for you because you are obviously retarded for buying and watching this show.
I bet the kid who played her daughter grew up to be super hot
always liked that girl in the Alpine Fields eps. Dont know why
swear i deleted that quote
It was her stylish Goatse shirt
For me it's the nine months pregnant neighbor
Having a fetish for heavily pregnant women is a nightmare. It's like my brain wants me to be a cuck.
I used to have that, grew out of it. I have no idea what cured me otherwise I'd help you bro.
You're supposed to get her pregnant yourself and then just keep fucking her dumbass
>when you nut on her CPU
I can't believe a TSCC thread is still up, bump
