I think the last episode was great. I enjoyed the hell out of it. That said I think they didn't' really tie anything up and just left off a great jumping off point for something new. I would love it if it was more T:SCC, but that is pretty much a forlorn hope unless the T:S does so much business it resurrects it. I am pretty bummed that we lost this series, I really enjoyed it.

I agree. Even if she is just a Stupid Girl. :lol:

A Terminator civil war, like the Cylons? That would be an intriguing angle.

A bit info on the fate, kind of a yes and no on cancellation. But it has a link that offers a poll to "save a show"

Not to stray off topic, but if/when T:SCC ends, I'd like to see Summer Glau play a halfway normal human being for a change. Preferably w/o a lot of clothes on. 8-)

Another story: http://io9.com/5213470/dollhouse-and-te ... y-insiders

What is of note is Brian Austin Green talking about a 3rd season:
The third season is going to be incredible, if it happens. There were no intentions of this being a series finale. It was absolutely a season finale. There's a plan where this can go and it's so good....
You have this episode where John Connor travels to a future where John Connor never existed. I don't know if people completely get it because we work on a string theory, which we've dealt with during the season. We dealt with that with Jessie, in the future that she came from there was Charles Fisher, who tortured everyone. In the future I came from, he never existed. I don't remember him. We were still together within these parallel futures but they were still different and they still had their own paths. This is the same concept. For John Connor to travel to a future where he never existed, where Kyle Reese never left, where Derek and Kyle are still fighting side by side, where Allison (the human Cameron was based on) is still very much present, what becomes of John? What better situation for somebody to grow up in and become the future leader than that? Than to be fighting in what he's been trying to prevent? Not just being the top dog, being listened to for everything, but having to actually listen and follow.

finally saw it... man it was fitting... i thought it was well done and set up the movie perfectly... as for cohesion with T3... well, some creative license has to be done i suppose...
