A conflicted, indecisive buffoon who shock paddled a man's head!.

You always knew that whatever scrape she got into, Lena Heady would get out of it by pulling some eye-popping move (one time literally: sticking a hypo into some guys eye) that would have you clutching your vulnerable bits protectively.

Ah well, not to everyone's taste.

I thought they were all pretty hardcore by the end. Brian Green did a good job, too, even though he was bashed. But then I never saw him in anything else.

Nope, it's dead. Josh Friedman is the creator and Executive Producer.

Good show, but didn't get the ratings.

Agreed! Also I loved the Australian woman (don’t know her name, but she was the star of the excellent BSG spin off “Razor”)

This makes me sick. The last 5 or so episodes (beginning with the submarine) were some of the best TV I ever saw. Fox must have made its decision earlier, when the show was a little slow and incoherent.

I hope Fox reconsiders, or at least produces a 2-hour TV movie.

There’s a reason that the sent-back-in-time terminators in the final episodes were ignoring John Connor and trying instead to kill the little red-headed girl. I bet anything it’s because Savannah Weaver, not John Connor, is the leader of the human resistance in the future. It would have been great seeing the freshly transported-in-time John Connor make his way in the post-judgment world and meet up with the grownup Savannah Weaver.

I speculate that the far, far advanced cyborg who “became” Catherine Weaver was herself from an even more distant future where they found some very good reason NOT to eliminate the human race. It would be a real shame if the loose ends were not tied up, including the stories of Sarah, Ellison, and John Henry. There are definitely a whole lot of loose ends.

I think the bad guys (representing the “other” Skynet) were trying to get to the Turk version of SkyNet for whatever reason. SkyNet I and SkyNet II of the future are (I believe) not friends.

So the other Skynet faction were attempting to John Henry, Catherine Weaver etc - only menacing Savannah to get at what they clearly thought was her human Mother. Remember that T8-tor that Catherine spectacularly fries in the last episode? He clearly didn’t know that she was a Terminator, especially a liquid metal one.

Ah well, we’ll never know all the details.

Summer Glau also had a recurring role in “The 4400”. She is a very talented actress.

She was freaky! I will miss the show. Glau was great, too. I enjoyed her dead-pan delivery.

My take on it: You're Skynet, you set out to destroy humanity, you succeed - now what do you do? What else do you know how to do? Uuuuuh......

So after sitting around on your metal butt for x number of years (hundreds? thousands? tens of thousands), you decide that maybe killing humanity wasn't such a hot idea. Because those humans had something you don't, and wish you knew more about. And so you try to change the past, to fix your mistake, so you can learn from the humans.

Both the Cameron Phillips(Summer Glau) and the Catherine Weaver(Shirley Manson) terminators, among other things, were trying to figure out what it meant to be human. Strangers in a Strange Land, indeed.

Alas, we'll never know how it was to play out.

I heard that in keeping her lesbian gender, one of her sponsers will be “Snap On Tool”.

It broke my heart when they axed “Firefly” And they replaced it with a show that lasted about as long as a plate of ribs in front of Rosie O Donnell.

Yes, I agree. We were very much thinking along the same lines. The “Catherine Weaver” cyborg was definitely interested in “humanizing” John Henry and learning as much about humans as possible. Also, Cameron seemed to be interested in the same thing, so it wasn’t all that surprising to see her take off with John Henry.

Even the hot babes didn’t do it for me, there was something missing in that show...I stopped recording it after about three shows.
