| Quote: | Terminator TV Series Going Forward
Director chosen for The Sarah Connor Chronicles pilot.
by Eric Goldman
August 29, 2006 - Warner Bros. TV has hired David Nutter to direct the pilot for The Sarah Connor Chronicles, a potential FOX series based on the character from the Terminator films originally played by Linda Hamilton. The pilot is written by Josh Friedman (War of the Worlds).
Nutter is a very experienced TV veteran, with directing credits going back to shows like 21 Jump Street. He served as a producer and frequent director on The X-Files, and directed the feature film Disturbing Behavior. In recent years, Nutter has become a go to guy to direct series pilots, having done so for the likes of Smallville, Supernatural and Without a Trace. Variety notes that Nutter's last 12 pilots have been picked up to series, which puts the odds high in Sarah Connor's favor.
Casting will begin immediately on Sarah Connor, which will go into production in early 2007 in New Mexico. The pilot and proposed series will pick up with Sarah after the events of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, as she and her son John continue to prepare for the war with the machines she fears is coming. In Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, we learned from an adult John Connor that Sarah had died of leukemia, though it's unclear as yet how closely the series will stick to the continuity of the films.
Neither Linda Hamilton nor Terminator star Arnold Schwarzenegger will be involved in the television project. Andy Vajna and Mario Kassar, whose company C2 Pictures produced T3, will executive produce the pilot, with C2 Pictures producing alongside Warner Bros.
Nutter told Variety he won't be working on any other pilots this year, describing Sarah Connor as, "A huge project that's going to take an extensive amount of preparation and pre-production." The director also stressed his respect for Terminator 1 and 2 writer/director James Cameron, saying, "It's important for me to live up, as best I can, to the bar that Jim Cameron set," adding that he wants to make sure to protect, "the integrity of what Cameron created." |

Worried about this, John and Sarah were convinced (if the message I got from T3 si correct) that they'd done enough, they'd destroyed the chip inside Arnie's Terminator and destroyed the evidence that had been collected from the Terminator that arived in '84. |

Alas, John also dropped off the face of the earth and Sarah actually had weapon caches like the one at her grave in T3. They still had some concern about it so it would be good to see how they came to this decision. |

Reviving this thread since the new series started last night. Overall I really enjoyed it. I can't remember much from T3 storyline wise but I really liked how they set this one up.
Another episode airs tonight on FOX at 9pm, which is filling 24's regular spot since Keifer and crew are having some major problems getting the new series out.
Anyone else check it out? Shino? Ultra? |

I do believe with this series they're pretending T3 didn't happen and tonight's episode is a replay of the pilot. Overall I liked it, now let's hope FOX doesn't can it before it can develop some more. |

I watched it last night but it was overshadowed by the gutter trash on "Rock of love 2" and the love of my life Hellga on American Gladiators.
Series appears like it'll be decent but I saw one episode of it and my work schedule will only allow me to watch that one episode...So Meh. |

Yeah I fell asleep during T3 so I can't comment on the continuity.
I liked it but I want to see the future dammit! I think I'm quite tired of the same idea being rehashed but I'm a sucker for Lena Headey and the initial Terminator and T2. I know the purpose is the stop SkyNet before they turn into SkyNet but COME ON! |

I thought it was pretty good overall tho it had some incredibly large holes in the storyline which I won't hit now or else I might ruin it for others. Still, I liked it and since Everybody Hates Chris, South Park, and The Boondocks aren't on I need something to watch. |
