Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

OK, so last year I tried to get into this show. I gave up after 3 episodes. Mike said that's when it started getting good, some other people said the same thing, so I picked it back up on the reruns. And guess what - they were right! It got good when Brian Austin Green joined the show! Which really goes against everything you would think possible, I know. But he kicks ass and the show was suddenly good. Go figure. I still can't stand this brat John Connor, but I can overlook him now.

There was much in the way of car chases and car crashes and explosions. Cameron the Terminator survived the car explosion to think she was programmed to terminate John. John got a little more street cred by actually killing a dude. And he was a little more violent in his emo-ness. Then he "killed" Cameron, even after she begged for her "life". But right before burning her body, he fixed her chip and brought her back. So now we get same old Cameron, new kickass John. He even has a tough new haircut to go with it.

Shirley Manson from Garbage joined the cast as an Evil Corporation Chick. She was pretty cool. Then she turned out to be one of those liquidy Terminators like in T2 and she got REALLY COOL!
