We have a regular forum now?! Sweeet! I don't think I've ever posted in a Meet Market thread, but I couldn't pass up this chance to get in on the ground floor.

Niiiiiice. I thoroughly enjoy that it just says "Terminator" on the drop-down menu thing. The show is the tv title equiavalent to The Assassination of Jesse James By the Coward Robert Ford.

Ok, so maybe it's not that long.

Boing! It does. I would've gone with "T:Sarah Connor". 'Terminator' was a late addition to the name, afterall.

I call 9 mm.

I didn't even notice the new forums until I went to post in the old thread.

I'm been looking forward to this show since last May's upfronts and glad it's finally here. Hopefully with the strike drying up new programming FOX won't be so quick to pull the trigger.

Yeah, this is great! I saw the first pilot and judging from that, this show really deserves its own forum.

I'm really looking forward to this show. At the very least, I hope it kicks that pathetic Bionic Woman's ass, but I'm especially hoping that it's just a great show, in general. Judging from most reviews, I'm optimistic.

Especially can't wait to see Lena Headey and Summer Glau kick major ass.

I had never even heard of this show until I saw that it had it's own forum, but after seeing some clips, I have to agree. When I saw the clip of Summer Glau running down the terminator and opening the truck door, all I could think was "No way is she going to say what I think she's going to say." But she did! And it was awesome. Definitely looking forward to it.

Whoo! I'm really looking forward to this now. I approached it with trepidation, and caught a peak of one of the pilots, and was really surprised to find I liked it. My love for Thomas Dekker on Heroes, Lena Headley in Gossip and Summer Glau in Serenity just was too much temptation.

I look forward to the recaps! I really hope it lasts.

I wasn't planning on watching this, but with the writers strike going on I decided too. I'm glad that I did, because the more I read about it, the more excited I am.

Yeah, I can't help but be excited about this. Mostly because of Summer Glau, I admit. She rocks so hard.

Hey, I just wanted to say Hi. I am beyond excited for this show. I'm a complete Terminator dork. I waited in line to see T3 and than spent the first 10 minutes quietly explaining to my husband how messed up the timeline was. It still annoys me that they retroactively made John 13 in that movie even though his police profile in it clearly said he was 10. Of course in T2 it always bugs me that Edward Furlong looks way older than 10. It makes no sense. See, dork, right here. The only forums I usually comment on are Buffy or the old Veronica Mars forum but I figured this one was worth coming out of hiding for. I'm counting down the hours!

Hi, red. I'm with you. I've loved the Terminator concept from the start. Time travel and AU are my favourite SF topics and this series started me off on both. I'm sure the timeline thing will continue to to drive us nuts. I've stayed away from spoilers as much as possible but it is my vague understanding that the series ignores T3. I guess we'll see on Sunday.

I totally agree. I love Sarah Connor and I hope they don't screw up one of my all-time favorite characters.

From the recap of The Terminator movie:

"The year!" shouts Biehn, completely bewildering the police officer (more so even than the synthesizer score by, if I'm not mistaken, Ross Geller).


This just completely made me spit Mike's hard lemonade all over my computer screen.

Hi Guys... counting the hours down until the premier. I can't wait. This is the first show in a long while I've been excited to see. I'm a little disappointed to hear that John and the gang will be somehow jumping forward to 2007 , but I'm still looking forward to some wildly fun 1999 shots in the pilot. Is it wrong that I'm hoping for a Y2K joke?

Does anyone else find it awesome that the thread is silver? (Aka, metal for Terminator) This made me giggle for a good minute.
