Yup Scott ‘Captain Archer’ Bakula is Chuck’s dad and Linda ‘Sarah Connor’ Hamilton is Chuck’s mom.

What’s Next? Schwartzenegger is Chuck’s uncle?

All kidding aside, Hamilton is an awesome actress and to see her return to TV is great. She makes her first appearance in the Season 4 premiere tonight of Chuck and we expect that she’ll be a major character the whole season — if not longer.

Linda Hamilton is the original, the one the only, true Sarah Connor and

SHE’LL BE BACK for Terminator 4 : Terminator Salvation.

We first heard inklings of this in January and now SciFi has some confirmed sources saying its done.

Linda Hamilton’s voice will be used in the film – not sure if this will be an Obi-Wan Kenobi thing talking to John Connor – or more of a flashback life lessons thing – but it’ll be there.

If you need any more proof that the current Sarah Connor Chronicles is Frakkin crap – here’s some.

Linda Hamilton – the one, the only – THE TRUE SARAH CONNOR – is likely to have a cameo in Terminator 4 – Terminator Salvation.

According to SciFi Wire:

McG (Salvation’s Director) intends to talk with original Sarah Connor Linda Hamilton soon about providing a voice-over narration—based on the tapes we see her recording for son John at the end of James Cameron’s 1984 original Terminator—to open and close the movie. “We’re in the business of doing that right now,” McG said. “So we’ll see what happens. She seems to be very supportive of the film. I look forward to showing it to her in about a week or so.” He added: “The tapes that she left for her son to be aware of what it was going to take to win the war, those are the tapes that are going to bring us in and out of the picture.”

Finally Cromartie narrows in on John..but hey WHAT KIND OF MASSIVE WIMP!!

Cromartie comes to the door and John sends Riley out to deal with him – while he hides behind the door. Riley easily could have been killed without a second thought while john was wimping out.

And what about the RAZOR – killing poor Moishe? And will she stay with the show for awhile (i hope so..)

Then what’s the deal with Agent Ellisons’s T-777 clone?

I dunno – but the show is getting more intricate as the week’s go on. Finally next week we’ll see another Terminator showdown…the teaser says someone will die – let’s hope it’s John Connor and that another John Connor twin/clone T-777 or otherwise takes his place.

Not bad…we meet yet another T-888 killing machine and yet another key figure from the future.
The best parts of the Sarah Connor Chronicles in my view are the flash forward glimpses of the future. John does a little growing up in this episode and isn’t the whiny beaatch that he’s been the previous four episodes.

That said – where was Cameron? why wasn’t she out there protecting John too?

Overall the worst part of this show – and this series so far this season – is the lack of flow and momentum. The shows are often so moody and plodding that the hour the show is on seems more like 2 hours.

If this show is to survive – it really needs to pick up the pace. A lot.

Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles 2×04 Cameron is Allison Young September 29, 2008

Interesting episode – we get our first real insight into Cameron (Summer Glau- who had a real life before as a human called Allison Young. Allison also knew John Conner which makes the “I love you” comment to John earlier this season even more interesting.

Why Cameron had this flashback episode – who knows but makes for some great backstory. Makes sense that Skynet would base its infiltrators on real humans.

Now what about Shirley Manson character – a T1000 – having a daughter! What’s up with that? Is she also a machine?

The best part of this episode? NOT MUCH WHINING FROM JOHN CONNOR!! He’s such a wimp!

This show continues to get worse week after week. The acting is deplorably bad and the pacing is all wrong.

John Conner is a total wimp. The Cameron character – in this episode was week. Charlie (who looses his wife in this episode)..COME ON..i’ve seen better acting from cardboard.

And what!!! Terminators can’t swim? really?

Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles Season 2 premiere – this doesn’t look good.. September 8, 2008

Just finishing watching the season two premiere of Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles and we’ve got some mixed feelings. The show tried to be all high flying action packed but it fails on many levels that ultimately will make it inaccessible to the consumer masses that Fox is targeting this show at.

The beginning intro with the ‘sampson and deliliah’ soundtrack in the background was too long on the song and too sharp on the scene cutoffs. If you had never seen Sarah Connor Chronicles before you would completely lost. Of course we’re fans here..so there was a little knowledge we had ..most of it from the season one finale from back in March.

Cameron going bad – ok that was neat…but John Connor saving her in the end and letting her live was lame. Magically she repairs the damage? where was the internal conflict?

And the Cromartie thing? COME ON. The FBI would have known that that body they found had been dead for some time and was not killed in the recent action.

Now the only redeaming scene in the whole show was the final scene where our new Terminator (Shirley Manson) reveals herself as a T1000 model that was just about to be urinated on…that was funny.

A few more Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles are now making the rounds. We blogged about the first set back in July.

Fox sure seems to be doing things right with the second season. New characters, more action and more drama and best of all they’re hyping the show – which is a good omen for ratings.

We’re still a couple of months away – but FOX is already out with a pair of awesome looking promo trailers for Season 2 of Sarah Connor Chronicles.

First thing that you’ll notice is that Cameron (the foxy terminator) is apparently turning on John. Not a big surprise is it? (or is it just another copy sent from the future?)

Two promos in total –

HURRAY! FOX didn’t frak this one up.

Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles has now been officially confirmed for second season of at least 13 episodes.

No official word yet on when season 2 will start, but I’d assume that since the order just came today we’re probably looking at September at the earliest at this point.

It’s Monday and for the first time in weeks – we don’t have a Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles episode.

We don’t know if Sarah is coming back after the ‘season finale’. We don’t know if there will be a Season 2.

We the fans cannot allow FOX to kill yet another fine SciFi show (they killed Firefly and should never be allowed to kill another).

It’s time to let FOX know how you feel. Write them at askfox@fox.com

Subject: Save Sarah Connor Chronicles !

The fight to save the future has just begun – we want Season 2!

WOW what a great episode.

Action

Plot development

and real touching moment drama too (with the young Reese brothers)

This is a show that has gotten better with each and every episode. The T-888 is out there building Skynet, Cromartie is hunter the Connors (and blowing up the FBI), Cameron is hiding something and so is Derek Reese. (and what was up with that other chik from the ‘hood’??).

This CAN’T BE THE LAST EPISODE FOX!! RENEW SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES FOR SEASON 2 !!!

The War to Save (Mankind and the) Sarah Connor Chronicles begins now!

Nice. We get a rehash of more Terminator 2 stuff with a new Dr. Silverman (this one isn’t nearly a neurotic).

Did Sarah actually save the FBI agent? That sure was some ‘weird’ cinematography there wasn’t it?

And Cameron?? Man oh  man is she one scary Terminator …now she’s a ballerina too.

All told yet another really solid episode of Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles. Our only complaint is that next week is the season finale?! How does that happen??? Since when does episodes make a season? I know we had the writers strike to deal with but still..8 episodes is NOT A FULL SEASON!

WOW. What a great episode, easily the best yet for Sarah Connor Chronicles.

We finally get a glimpse of the future. Even better the series is now woven tightly in with the narrative from the first Terminator with Kyle having a pic of Sarah (not Linda Hamilton though).  And we get another vantage on that pivotal move of Kyle Reese and what happened to him before being sent back.

Now his brother…what happened in that room with the music?  Is he a sleeper skynet agent now?

Kyle Reese had a brother.

NEAT.

Sarah gets back together with her former boyfriend the medic.

VERY NEAT.

Sarah does the pullup thing that Linda Hamilton did so very effectively in T2 (while in the mental facility) – that wasn’t so cool. Lena Headey just isn’t as buff.

Summer Glau’s Terminator continues her cardboard performance..though she at least had a funny line in this episode. Sarah calls shotgun (for the front of the jeep) and Cameron call ‘9 millimeter’.

All told a solid episode though that will help to add even more plot complexity to this show.

Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles 1×4 Golem February 4, 2008

The concept of the Golem of Prague is an ancient and well known story.

The way the writers brilliantly wove that ancient tale’s basic premise into this episode, gives me great hope that this series has a fantastic writing team behind it (#hope they settle the strike soon!!#).

Then again, episode 1×3 was officially called ‘The Turk’ which is of course another ‘old’ story that the writers were able to weave in…I wonder how many more they were able to find…

Again we’ve got what looks to be a recurring theme with various ‘others’ coming from the future – in his case yet another Terminator – to do something in the past that will help the outcome in the future.

The continuing theme with the FBI agent that is overlooked and ‘laughed at’ is a bit cliched but hey it does serve its purpose.

Then of course there is John.

John Connor the great Savior of humanity – no longer interested in running – but interested in making a difference now. Brilliant.

Summer Glau’s ‘Cameron’ Terminator is still just a cardboard cutout..and it would be really great to see her Terminator evolve into something more animated as this series continues.

Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles in Repeats already?? January 28, 2008

We’ve only had three episodes of Sarah Connor Chronicles – and it looks like we’re into REPEATS already!!

The official Fox Terminator site (which is useless when it comes to actually providing up to date information for fans) give no such indication that this week’s show is a repeat.

What’s the point of having a repeat so early in a season? If FOX is trying to kill this show off it’s doing a fine job with this stunt.

Sure Pres Bush has a State of the Union address at 9 ET but that doesn’t mean FOX couldn’t have had a new show at 8 PM. Make no mistake about it FOX KILLED FIREFLY with similiar mis-steps…let’s hope they don’t do the same to Sarah Connor Chronicles

Yup..Terminator is going on tour with a green screen bus that lets us the fans jump into the scene to experience what it’s like to be chased by cold robotic killing machine from the post apocalyptic future.

The full tour schedule isn’t quite as comprehensive as we would like but hey..not too shabby either.

Check out the full tour schedule here.
