Ohay, so I'm generally not that fast about getting a review out, but I really really like these Sarah Connor Chronicles. The woman playing Sarah Connor is the same woman who played the wife in 300 - "Come back with your shield....or on it." She had raw sex appeal while trying to play having no sex appeal.

The other part of the threesome is Summer Glau from Firefly. Okay, hair washed and makeup, she is the babe I always knew she could be. Unfortunately she plays another odd character, a Terminator, but this time she plays a different kind of Terminator, one that's been hinted at but not revealed yet.

Unsure about the John character - he's kind of a non-entity for me so far. (All two episodes.) If he's to grow up and lead the resistance, I worry about the resistance. Maybe that's why this Terminator brought them forward in a time-bubble to 2007 (yep, nekkid) to try to stop Skynet. It seems the death of Miles years ago was not enough to sever the time line, and the Judgment Day is still a realistic possibility.

It is also reveled that they were brought forward because Sarah died in the past, of cancer, and she was the strongest fighter John knew, and he needed her to teach him longer. We see sad scenes of Sarah at the oncology center of the hospital getting blood work done trying to see where she is now. Trying to gage how long she has to train John. It's poignant. In the harsh, the world is a cruel place and never trust anyone or anything, mentality she has developed since Kyle died.

Summer Glau's Terminator, "affectionately" termed "Tin Man" by Sarah has been sent to help and protect John and Sarah. She later reveals to an emotionally wracked Sarah that she "gets it"; the "Tin Man" reference, from the Wizard of Oz, written by yada yada yada. She (Sarah) used to read it to John in Spanish when he was a child. He never got a chance to tell her it was something he loved.  Tin Man will be a bridge between Sarah and John, I think.

But now I believe the FBI knows they're back, and back on the radar, even after Sarah and Tin Man had to have  things like 9/11 explained to them by the folks who made their new IDs. The world has changes, and yet, are we really so far from the apocalypse foretold? Life will not be so easy, and will get more difficult every day - Judgment Day...wasn't that in 2007?

This should be interesting.
