Nice! The show now has good character dynamics set up, a promising plot, and a hint of some true creativity. (Like that pool scene in the finale!) A good second season is truly theirs to lose.

Did anybody catch the Terminator franchise shout-out in 30 Rock this week? In the first block, when Liz saw the 'Subway Guy' on MSNBC for the first time, the crawl said: "NORAD gives cyborgs control of Skynet"

Too funny.

I can't say I'm surprised. As much money as Fox has spent on this show, I can't see them not wanting to give it a second chance. Hell, if they can keep "Prison Break" on the air for as long as it has then this should be a no brainer!

Awesome news .. Now if CBS renews The Unit and Moonlight I'll be really happy SCC and Moonlight are my two favorite new shows ( and I'm optimistic CBS will renew Moonlight ) while The Unit has been my favorite drama series since its premiere ( and why this series is on the bubble is beyond me ?rolleyes)so SCC has the renewal and now I'm waiting for The Unit and Moonlight too ..

Awesome, this is one of the few new shows that I really liked and they really started to hit their stride during the last few episodes aired. Between this and Dollhouse I am actually looking forward to some FOX shows come fall. That's assuming that the network doesn't cancel Dollhouse after only a few episodes.

VERY good news! I was very wary when I first heard of this show being made for the same reason as the third movie, which was that James Cameron had wrapped things up in the 2nd movie and anything else just felt tacked on. That being said, I was pleasantly surprised with what I saw and look forward to more!

That's good news. I think Dekker is an up and coming actor who's going to be really big with exposure. Headley is an amazing actress who combined with 300 can use this as a major career boost. Glau proves once again that the actors who came from Firefly were all truly amazing actors. Just look at what some of the actors are doing nowadays (Glau on Sarah Connors, Fillion on Desperate Housewives, Baldwin on Chuck, and Staite/Baccarin in the Stargate series). A lot of people just didn't tune into this because they thought it'd take away from the movies. Instead it's held it's own, and actually has been great.

Good news. My fear for this show was that it would be a weekly battle between the unbeatable 'bots, but they kept that to a minimum, and worked on character instead. (still needs more work there) Speaking of character, my biggest impression of the show was a simple shot of Summer, standing sentinel throughout the night. Silent, aware - looking every bit as capable as Schwarzenegger.
