Terminator:Sarah Connor Chronicles cancelled :(

[HunterGather]

NOOOOO

It's official. Fox cancelled the show, or isn't renewing another season. Whatever. Was a pretty sweet show.

They sort of wrapped things up in the season finale, but then totally left it open for something else.

I hope they resolve it in some form, whether its some TV-movie or another network picks it up.

Also, that new animated show SIT DOWN SHUT UP is gone too.

But they are keeping Dollhouse...

I dunno if this was worth its own thread, but eh.

Edit: actually, no. They didn't really resolve anything. They completely left you with more questions and a more complicated plot twist. Damn you, Fox!

[Stainofmind]

you're not the only one that is bummed about it.

[fatbastard]

So she won't be back?

[canexplain]

yea i really liked that program ... esp the robot girl ... cr****

[Blinken]

I stopped following during the second season, it was better than I expected. I will probably pick up the season 2 DVDs when they come out.

My Name is Earl got canned too.

[marooko]

2nd season. WTF?! hahaha.

[MissingPerson]

I think it's a shame because I could watch Summer Glau taste various soups and find it enthralling, and it was definitely getting stronger as it found it's feet, but I'm not entirely surprised beyond the poor timing of it. Would have thought it would be a good time to cash in on Salvation?

[chairmenmeow47]

the fact that this says cancelled and not terminated in the title makes me sad.

i so wish i could go to the midnight showing of T4. that's all i have to contribute; i couldn't get into the pilot of this show.

[Alchemy]

Terminator looked silly. Nobody watched it because they were probably all thinking, "Really? Terminator on TV?" It's kind of a hard sell after T3.

I'm surprised My Name is Earl got canned though. It seemed like that show was rolling strong.

[amyzzz]

I AM SO HAPPY THAT THE DOLLHOUSE GOT RENEWED!!! That show is all kinds of awesome. I watched that last 10 minutes or so of the Terminator series finale, and it looked damn good, so I'm a bit sad about that since I thought I might start watching it. Oh well. I only watched that bit because it was on before The Dollhouse.

[MissingPerson]

I'm a huge Whedon fan, but I haven't seen it yet, and I'm not in a terrible hurry to. The idea doesn't catch my attention at all, and to be honest, as much honest-to-nerdy-God fangirl affection as I have for Eliza Dushku, I have a hard time picturing her as having the kind of range to fit the premise.

[amyzzz]

Um, MP, you need to watch it from beginning to end ASAP. It really gets good as time goes on, and Eliza's acting is getting better in this show.

[menikmati]

All Terminators should have stopped after T2.

[JebusLives]

I watched the show a few times in the first season and thought it was cheap. As in low-budget. I was briefly excited when they added the future Mrs. Jebus (Shirley Manson) to the cast, but she's such a bad actress I don't even know if we're in love anymore.

Hope the new movie is good, even though the story should have ended with James Cameron's involvement.

[menikmati]

T3 blew, and I have no interest in T4.

[MissingPerson]

Um, MP, you need to watch it from beginning to end ASAP. It really gets good as time goes on, and Eliza's acting is getting better in this show.

I still don't know if I've forgiven her for picking Tru Calling over Faith, to be honest, so she better be bloody awesome.

[amyzzz]

Shirley Manson is just awful in it from what I've seen, and she hasn't aged well sadly.

[amyzzz]

I still don't know if I've forgiven her for picking Tru Calling over Faith, to be honest, so she better be bloody awesome.

The Dollhouse seems to be more of an ensemble type show with Eliza as the centerpiece, so there are a lot of other good actors in there to keep things interesting since they all have their backstories. There a couple other actors in it from Whedon's previous shows too....
Just watch the first 5 or 6 episodes and then make a judgment.

[vogina]

THANK GOD

[Principal Onyx Blackman]

Good, that show was fucking awful. So was T3. How can that even be debated?

[wmgaretjax]

who cares... dollhouse is all that mattered from their set of possible cancellations.

[Principal Onyx Blackman]

the fact that this says cancelled and not terminated in the title makes me sad.

Super lulz.

The main reason SCC got a second season was they figured it'd be an easy way to promote the new movie, to keep Terminator in the conversation. But the time the show would've started airing again T:S would be out of the theaters and all they'd have to cross-promote would be the DVD, etc releases. And I can't figure they'd win new fans with T:S.

It didn't get that good of ratings and was an expensive show and wasn't produced by Fox so it's gone.

[BlackSwan]

Better this than Fringe.

[mountmccabe]

Dollhouse has its issues but he has a lot going on in that show. It is the only network TV show I kept up with this past season. I am very happy that it'll be around for at least another one.

Yeah, the last couple issues were Whedon in top form too. Bodes well for next season.

[real talk]

That new Terminator movie looks like total garbage from the preview.

[amyzzz]

I'm giving up on Fringe, BlackSwan. The acting AND the storylines just get worse every episode.

Do you want me to fucking trash your lights?!?!

Come on, now Peter is really from a parallel relality. It's a fun show.

If it gets cancelled after the next season, I'm going to blame it on you "giving up" on it.
