Terminator: Sarah Conner Chronicles * SPOILER WARNING!*.
isucamper:
The ending was pretty weird. Isn't having John jump into the future pretty much the same as having him killed? He wouldn't be around to lead the revolution. I'm suprised that everything kind of went on without him. Kinda downplays his importance in the whole thing after all.

******************* Spoiler warning!!!!! ******************
If you remember in the first Terminator movie, Kyle told Sarah that mankind was almost lost until John Conner brought them together.
In the series, John appears in the future. We dont know if the humans are almost beat or not. They dont know JC, but with all the knowledge he has, it might be what is needed to turn the war around. Perhaps he gives them a renewed hope and spirit.
John is now at a stage where:
Kyle has not yet traveled back in time.
Also the human Cameron has not been killed and replaced by the terminator yet. (Notice how she is petting the dog, proving she is human.)
I dont know the role of the liquid terminator or John Henry.
Possible double spolier warning:
Perhaps the robots and the humans make peace.

In short - a HELL of a way to wrap the series...that is...if it is indeed done.

I hope it hasnt ended yet. We shall se what the boys at Fox have to say about it.
I wonder how the movie this summer will affect the way the series is going? (Or vice versa).
They showed some pretty cool clips on the last SCC episode.

My thoughts:
I didn't get a chance to watch it until tonight so I was anxious to see how they wrapped things up. I'm surprised that no one mentioned Katherine (Catherine?) being a good guy/woman. There was one particular episode where she either did or said something that made me wonder if she wasn't a bad terminator. I don't recall now what it was and obviously, I never mentioned it here so I can't take any credit for it. No big deal...
Where did Mrs. Weaver go at the end of the episode? John turned around and she was gone. I understand she probably walked/slithered away but still curious.
Why didn't Cameron make it through? Because she wasn't totally covered in skin? What will Sarah and James Ellison do now?
And who's building Skyenet? Who built and sent the ship that attacked them in Weaver's office? I think those types of questions lead into next season ( :angel:!).
I'm going to be irritated if they don't bring it back. I absolutely despise getting into a series only to have it canceled. I rarely watch a series before it's third or fourth season for this very reason.
Overall, I'd rate the series 3 out of 4 stars.

SPOILER DISCUSSION: STEER CLEAR IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED THE FINALE:
1. They have made it quite obvious that Weaver was good for several episodes now. The eel story was the dead giveaway.
2. No Clue. Probably to find John Henry.
3. This goes back to the start of the series when we had the debate about cromartie's head going thru. There are huge holes when it comes to the time travel device. It's one of those things you just have to 'accept' to better enjoy the story.
4. Why, go get the Weaver girl from daycare right? ;) I have no clue, but we couldn't have the show called "The Sarah Connor Chronicles" if they didn't have a plan for her.
5. I think there was a blatant reason why the FBI guy mentioned Bobby Dyson to Sarah - which is probably where her and Ellison's story would go. He has something directly to do with the Skynet like computer trying to kill John Henry and running things. He's probably the new 'boss'.
6. This is a problem that the networks fail to realize is their own doing. They expect shows to be 20 million viewer explosions from day one. Historically, this is NOT the case. Why would anyone watch a show that they had the slightest inkling would just be canceled? It's a catch 22 that I hope they come up with a reasonable solution for. There IS a solution, but the big networks refuse to acknowledge it. What happens when a baseball player under performs? He goes back to the minor leagues. As such, a show that performs decently on a network with a solid core audience should be transferred to a cable network. I have a strong feeling that Chuck will go this route - maybe even Terminator. It SHOULD have happened with Firefly, Jericho, Wonderfalls, etc, etc. Imagine the CW gaining a show with an almost guaranteed 3-6 million viewers! Their network only averages like 1 million! Friday Night Lights is a show that is kind of going this direction - with the shared partnership between DirectTV and NBC. It been quite a success...but I don't watch that show.
