I wasn't impressed.

The pace and amount of action distracted from the awful cinematography and cornball plot. Plot seems to center on the struggle between the smokin' hot Sarah Connor and even smokiner Cameron terminator (who... I... can't... take... my... eyes... off...) for the affections of John Connor. Enough oedipal weirdness to sink a ship, but we'll see where it goes.

Well its not expected to be action packed due to budget size being considerably less then motion picture productions. So far i thought the show was decent. IMO this new sarah is jamless compared to linda hamiltons acting in T2. But i like most anything terminator so this has little affect on my impression of the show. Jon does seem sligtly emo, which also im not concerned about. All in all not a bad show for cable television.

Well...she does play a robot after all and I doubt many are really watching her acting anyway.

And is her name pronounced "Summer Glow"? Because if it is, that's incredibly unfortunate.

Sucked big-time IMO.
The only "acting" will be when they say the deserved their paychecks.

I enjoyed the first episode last night and will watch the second tonight. I thought 24 was cancelled for the season due to Kiefers off screen problems coupled with the writers strike?

After the second episode...I've more or less lost interest. It really doesn't seem to be going anywhere and the new "Sarah Connor" bores the crap out of me. She just doesn't have the undertones of "I'm one step away from going INSANE and ripping your head off" that Linda Hamilton did.
