wow just watched the pilot online and it was fantastic!!!! if you ignore the actor changes but these new people do a fantastic job.
Also it totally neglects terminator 3 which I hated and is like a follow up to judgement day.
anyone else see the pilot?

I love the movies, but this is going to blow. We all know it.

I was excited until I saw Summer Glau and Owain Yeoman in the commercial. They're both veterans of excellent-yet-prematurely-cancelled Fox shows.
Some people think the WGA strike is going to prevent Fox from cancelling shows with potential like they always do...I disagree.

Not really. I just have a feeling it'll be bad and I personally think it's just them trying to milk the Terminator franchise for all it's worth.

Doesn't this show create a plot hole in the storyline since nothing happened after T2 until T3?

I loved T1 and T2, but T3 was okay. So I'll give it a chance, who knows I might end up liking it.

It looks like it might be good, I have heard a lot of good things about the pilot. I love all the negativity on the forums towards the show. I say if you like the movies give the show a shot, what can it hurt.

Saw the pilot a while on the Interweb, I thought... That blew chunks big time.
Seriously, it's just so bad.

Hey genius I said up top it completely acts as if T3 didnt exist. And for all the doubters I have seen it and it is truly an amazing looking tv show. Idk how long the budget will stretch maybe they just pumped the pilot with action but damn it was great and soooo much better then T3 and such a better story.

I think it's got some work ahead of it, but I saw some potential here and there. But I think we all need to realize that no matter how it's worded or no matter how many explanations we're given, the chronology and overall continuity of the Terminator saga can, at best, be described as a gigantic cluster-****.
I'll judge it separately from all the other Terminator stuff, which is what I've done for a while now. It had some strengths and weaknesses. And it's going to be ****ing weird to have John go from having a robot as a father to having a robot as a girlfriend.
Honestly...is the new Terminator a pleasure robot or something? If you're going to send a ROBOT FROM THE FUTURE to the past to protect a teenage boy, wouldn't your rather give it the features of some stoic muscled-up freak instead of something he'd like to have sex with?

Agreed on your last statement. I caught about 40 mins of it and I thought it was OK at best. The action was pretty nice for a TV show(yet again I dont really watch TV shows) But I just cant watch it without comparing it to the movies..which isnt fair but I just cant do it.

I just can't get around that all of a sudden the robot is a woman. Why did they do this? It ruined the hype! This is the reason why I didn't even watch it. I was going to, but when I found this out; I was like...When did the robot have a sex change?

I wanted to watch it, I watched some of it, and got pissed, because I didn't know it was going to ignore the events of T3.

At least it'll connect to T4, which I like. The show is starting off on a good start. I loved the first two, liked the third but the show may very well end up being better than the T3.
