Summer Glau in Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles

Terminator fans, including star Thomas Dekker, have campaigned for FOX to renew the show.  The question becomes now can the show rise again?

    Noooooooooo !!!!!!! Tell me it isn’t true :(. TSCC is the best show on FOX.

    I hope Summer Glau gets to work again w/ Josh Whedon, perhaps Dollhouse or Serving Girl. This will give Summer an opportunity to work on a new movie.

    I am sad that we will not see Cameron ever again … :(

    That’s just can’t be true, this is really bad news, don’t wanna beleive it, still the chances of show’s survival were really not so good despite millions of people watching and supporting it. I never loved any show more than SCC, except for Firefly. What are we going to do without it?..

    The unfortunate thing about TTSCC was it waited until the second season finale to actually get interesting. John Henry was the most intriguing character. I flat got tired of Lena Heady’s introspective Sarah Connor. For a series based on an action-packed movie, there was a disappointing lack of same.

    TSCC blows Dollhouse out of the water.

    I watched one episode of Dollhouse and will never watch it again. It is about the worst thing on TV right now.

    i dont understand why out of all the science fiction shows on fox they would choose the two worst to stay on. yes joss is a great creator, but that doesnt mean the dollhouse garbage that is being pumped out right now is going to continue having good ratings. i am a loyal fan of whedon and i gave dollhouse 10 episodes to be worth watching, thats right i have 2 episodes left of the season and i will not watch because it is garbage.
    terminator on the other hand i can agree had its ups and downs every once in a while but is making jon connor a character that we actually care about and the last 4 episodes of the season were incredible even though they were only slightly more intense than the rest of the series.
    i have been trying to deal with this for the past week, and i dont understand why they would pick up and leave a great story like terminator, you dont think there are terminator fans what about the $67,200,000 domestic that terminator salvation just made in the last couple of days. if anything more people would have been looking to watch the amazing show after a big time movie release.
    who ever is running fox is crazy. give them one or two seasons to wrap up, do the right thing.
