Well I'm still really enjoying this.
As a week to week series, its holding my interest. Summer Glau's doing an excellent job as the terminator, she really has the whole "machine" thing going on.
I didn't like Cromartie (Terminator chasing them) being recast, I much preferred the guy that was in the pilot. But I digress.
Still waiting for a better story arc to develop then "lets find out stuff about Skynet," but its early days, I'm sure we'll get something more substantial as the series goes on.

Re: Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles *spoilers*
SPOILER WARNING!!!
I agree that the time travel scenario has thrown the time line out of whack... according to Terminator 3 the bombs have already hit by 2007, not only that John Connor would be much younger when Judgment Day arrives, thus jeapordising his future as leader of the resistance.
Not too say this can't be fixed later on down the track, like at the end of the series, as they could possible travel back in time again.
What i think is quite ironic is that during the pilot the good terminator said she had no records of skynet back then, so they had to travel to 2007 when the first information of skynet is available. So they are trapped in a bank vault, surrounded by police, and blow up the bad terminator before travelling to the future, leaving behind advanced robotic technology (such as the time travel equipment) and leftover pieces of a damaged terminator (which ep2 reveals all the broken pieces actually travelled to 2007 as well) so therefore these pieces of technology left behind in 1999 would actually be collected by secret government agencies, to be studied, researched and analysed only to give birth to skynet in (you guessed it) 2007!! So therefore its again the fact that terminator's were sent into the past that created their own existence in the first place...... crazy huh?? OH the paradox.... just like how John Connor wouldn't have even been born if he didn't send his friend back to save his mother from a terminator......
So many paradox's....... even Dr. Emmet Brown would be have an aneurysm trying to figure this one out!!!!
I'm expecting some kind of crazy twist at the end that reveals terminators are only sent back to protect John Connor in order to ensure Judgment Day actually comes, as without him, Terminators wouldn't be sent back to destroy him, and therefore the technology to build skynet would never be discovered......
or maybe not........ who knows...........???

I did like the movie, but for a friefly fan it was a big let down in terms of story evolution and answering questions.

I felt that worked too. Didn't get why Cromartie didn't kill Ellison at the end though. I mean, he's a Terminator. He has no sympathy.

That's if its even picked up. Fox haven't confirmed whether they will yet. Its likely, but Fox are sitting on the fence about it.
