Review: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

January 13th, 2008

I just finished watching the premiere episode of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. It wasn’t terrible and it’s got Summer Glau (who shall always be River for me). But the first episode was essentially an abridged version of Terminator 2 (right down to a visit with the Dyson family) and ended by setting up the series as a weird kind of robot Three’s Company.

Friend: Dude, that Cameron chick living with you is hot but she is such a robot.
John: Oh, her? No, she’s not a robot… Haha! That’s silly. No, uh… she’s a foreign exchange student! From Sweden! Yah, that’s it!
Sarah: If you tell anyone I’ll kill you.

Anyway, it must be better than T3 which I’m told I’ve seen but of which I have no memory.
