NEWS: Sarah Connor Coming to TV

CULTURE: Sarah Connor Coming to TV

Ever since we first heard her utter the words, "You're terminated, fucker," we all knew we wanted to be a little like Sarah Connor. She was a hardass with a heart of gold, and now she's coming back into our lives. As Comingsoon.net reports, The Sarah Connor Chronicles has been greenlit by Fox, with go-to TV pilot director David Nutter attached.

Goddamn, if only Linda Hamilton was still 30.

sounds a bit boring since she was unaware of skynet's continued existence, free of any terminators coming after her or anything like that.

wouldn't it just be her going around being a militant nutjob to her son while only linked to the terminator movies in name?

Um...timely.

yeah, what he said...

one season for sure.......unlesss they do some time displacement thingy and have her in th future.....

Oh, Sarah Connor, how I love thee... (from T2, for she was the kickass badass sexyass hotness)

yeah. I give it less than a season. which is more than it deserves.

can't they come up with anything new?...sheesh

she was sexier in T1

After I saw that for the first time I went to the gym the next day, joined up and told them I wanted to look like Sarah Connor.


I think they're still laughing.

I got the same reaction.

Is it gonna be a porno? I got the impression she shacked-up with dudes to get useful knowledge out of them.

"After you are done sucking that Sarah, you can work on the generator some more."

Please someone stop the maddness. God forbid they do something new, that doesn't have Gene Rodenberry's name hooked to it and is actually original.

Not to mention the fact that she was dead by T3. Add that to the fact that Terminator creator James Cameron is having nothing to do with this trainwreck-in-the-making, and it doesn't take Will Hunting to come up with the final figures.

Though, on the upside, I'm sure Edward Furlong is hurting for rent money. Perhaps he can be coaxed out of rehab long enough for the season-long role of John Connor...

We all know what happened: The Terminator took over California!

Well played, sir.

Well I'm optimistic. Kind of like when you have a lottery ticket. You know the odds are against anything really great happening, but it's fun to pretend that it could.

Who could they cast that would be as kick-ass as Linda Hamilton in that role?

I motion that Flux be offered the part.

Seconded. Motion succeeds. Where's Flux?

I was under the impression that Dark Horse Comics (i think?) did some post T2 Sarah following called "Cybernetic Dawn", where even more Terminators were sent back. It was actually pretty compelling stuff, and I'm sure they could walk the same lines with the show.

I'm also sure that Fox wouldn't be afraid to muck up the timeline even further than T3 already managed to.

Thank you.

meh... I would watch it a couple times... beats the hell out of another csi...

I feel like I'm missing a joke. I don't understand why everyone knows it's gonna suck. is there a bad writer or director involved or something?

T2 fucked up the timeline pretty bad, too, and created one hell of a paradox. If you're going to hate T3 for that reason, then you should just consider everything after the first one to be garbage.
