Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles I downloaded the first episode the other night from XBox Live. My short review: It is a perfect follow-up to Terminator 2. It is set a few years after the second movie (and apparently ignoring that 3 was ever made). Sarah and John are still on the run, wanted for the murder of the scientist, Dyson. It looks like the show will be a mix between the Terminator movies and The Fugitive TV show. The special effects were great and the casting was great. Summer Glau (River Tam from Firefly) takes the role of a Terminator sent back to protect John and apparently has an emotion chip or something because she fakes being human better than any of the past Terminators and they hint at that in the first episode while still leaving it a mystery. The episode also used the Time Travel element of the Terminiator series really well.
Anyways, if you liked T2, you should like the TV show.
