In the year 1995, at the end of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Sarah Connor,

her son John and the 800-series Terminator successfully destroy the T-1000,

as well as the arm and CPU chip from the Terminator sent back to 1984 in the

first film. The T-800 from the second film, at its own request, is then also

destroyed to eliminate any future technology that could be used to create

Skynet through reverse engineering. Despite this, at the beginning of the

television series, a T-888 using the name "Cromartie" is sent back to 1999 to

kill John. "Cameron", a Terminator that John sent back from 2029 to protect

his younger self, leaps forward in time with John and Sarah to the year 2007

in order to prevent a delayed Judgement Day once and for all. Now wanted

fugitives with the fear of pending leukemia playing on Sarah's mind, they

must also face the reality that other enemies from the future could be after

them.

Four years after the second film, Sarah, her son John, and Cameron (a Terminator that has been re-programmed to protect

John), are being pursued by a Terminator, Cromartie, sent back through time to assassinate John and also by FBI Special

Agent James Ellison, who initially believes Sarah is an insane criminal (based on the events of Terminator 2: JudgmentDay).[5][6] Sarah is romantically involved with a paramedic named Charley Dixon, but ends her relationship with him to stay

on the run.

During the pilot, Sarah, John, and Cameron make a temporal leap to 2007. Cromartie suffers extensive damage while trying

to kill them, but begins repairing his endoskeleton and artificial flesh and continues his search for John in 2007. Because

John is frustrated with their life of running, Sarah resolves to go on the offensive against Skynet. Yet the world in 2007

proves complex: they find Skynet has sent additional Terminators back in time to support its own creation, and the

resistance movement has sent back its own fighters to interfere. As they seek out an intuitive chess computer called "the

Turk" (named after the 18th-century hoax using that name), which they suspect may be a precursor to Skynet, they forge an

alliance with Derek Reese, a resistance fighter who has time travelled from the post-nuclear future, and John's uncle. As the

series progresses, the Connors are confronted with the reality that they will find more enemies, either at the present or from

the future, bent on reshaping the future for their own goals.

Lena Headey as Sarah Connor:

Sarah Connor is a major character in the Terminator series. She is the mother of John Connor,who will one day become the leader of the human resistance. The authorities, however, see heras a deranged fugitive. Series creator Josh Friedman saw over 300 actresses for the role anddescribed the actress he was looking for was someone "who embodied that spirit and who wasbelievable in that role and not just some glammed up, Hollywood, actressy thing".[7]

After a friend recommended English actress Lena Headey for the role, Friedman watched heraudition tape, and thought she was "a tough, tough woman".[7] Having seen The Terminator whenshe was a teenager, which "scared the hell out of" her,[8] Headey was aware of the iconic statusof the character and in regards to Linda Hamilton's portrayal of the role in the film series, sheremarked, "Linda Hamilton will always be the original Sarah Connor and it's a very strong printthat she's left, but hopefully people will embrace what I bring to Sarah and see it with fresheyes".[9] When asked about her approach to the role, Headey said "I'm playing a mother who is asingle parent, bringing up a teenage son, who also happens to save the world—as a byline to herlife. And the way I would play that is someone who's passionate and scared and angry and amother, all these things. So I approach that just trying to be honest within the boundaries ofher".[10] However, the choice to cast Headey was criticized by several fans and critics who arguedthat she bore no resemblance to the athletic, muscular woman established by Hamilton, whotransformed her body into that of a muscled warrior for Terminator 2: Judgment Day.[11] Thecontroversy was covered by the Los Angeles Times,[11] the Boston Herald,[12] and TheGuardian,[12] as well as in online forums.[12]

Thomas Dekker as John Connor:

John Connor is Sarah's son and the future leader of the human resistance. He is only 15 yearsold at the beginning of the show, turning sixteen in the season one finale. As the seriesprogresses, John struggles with his feelings for Cameron, who is a Terminator. Dekker was castafter Headey secured the role of Sarah Connor.[13] Regarding the Terminator films, Dekker says"They are like my favorite films when I was younger. So it's very ironic that I'm getting to do this.And I know for the younger generation and for myself, John was equally important to me as Sarahwas, and I know a lot of the people that I hear from really, really care about John".[14] Dekkerdescribes his character as "a continuation of Eddie Furlong's character" but "he's in a darker,more mature place now".[8] John De Vito played as the young John Connor in two episodes"Queen's Gambit" and "To the Lighthouse".

Summer Glau as Cameron / Allison Young:

Cameron is a Terminator whom John Connor sent back from 2027 to protect his earlier self. Hermodel and exact capabilities are not known, but she can mimic human mannerisms better thanthe T-800 model could, and she can also consume small amounts of food, a first forTerminators.[15][16] Her name is an homage to Terminator film franchise creator James

Cameron.[17] Glau had not seen the Terminator films prior to being cast as Cameron Phillips,whose role in the series was initially kept concealed but was later revealed to be a Terminatorsent from the future to protect John.[15] Friedman had previously wanted to cast Glau in a pilot hewrote four years prior to The Sarah Connor Chronicles, but she was already committed toSerenity.[7] Glau almost did not audition for the role because of her preconceptions of thecharacter and she felt that she did not have "that Terminator look".[18] On playing Cameron, Glausaid she was "intimidated" by the role because it was a challenge for her to balance the humanand robot characteristics.[19] Later in the series it is revealed that Cameron assumed the identityof a resistance fighter, Allison Young, before being reprogrammed.

Richard T. Jones as James Ellison:

James Ellison is an FBI Special Agent pursuing Sarah Connor. At first puzzled by what he initiallythinks is Sarah's outlandish story, he later collects inexplicable evidence of the Terminators(including the body of Cromartie) and gradually realizes the truth. Jones describes his characteras a "man of faith"[20] and likens him to that of Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive.[21] Jones wasallowed to improvise a few lines to provide "a little bit of comic relief" to the show.[21] In thesecond season, Ellison pursues employment with ZeiraCorp, allying himself with CatherineWeaver (whom he does not know is a Terminator until the series finale).

Brian Austin Green as Derek Reese:

Derek Reese is a Resistance fighter sent to the past by the future John Connor. He is the olderbrother of Kyle Reese (John Connor's father) and paternal uncle of John.

He is recurring in thefirst season but becomes a regular in the second season. Derek knows Jesse Flores who arrivesfrom the future. He is killed by a Terminator while attempting to save Savannah Weaver. AnotherDerek from an alternate timeline is introduced in the series finale.

Cromartie is a T-888[22] sent back in time to kill John Connor in the pilot episode, in which he wasportrayed by Owain Yeoman.[23] He takes damage to his biological covering, revealing his metalendoskeleton. After he finds a new biological covering in the episode "The Turk" in the shape ofactor George Laszlo, he continues his search for John. After chasing John and Riley into Mexico,Cromartie's chip is destroyed and John buries his body in the desert. When John returns later todestroy Cromartie's body, it has been moved. Ellison has recovered the body for CatherineWeaver, who connects Cromartie's body to the Babylon A.I. named John Henry.

Shirley Manson as Catherine Weaver:

Catherine Weaver is a shape-shifting Terminator disguised as the CEO of a high-tech corporationcalled ZeiraCorp. A model T-1001, her liquid metal form as she changes shape resembles afaster, more easily recovering version of the T-1000 seen in Terminator 2: Judgment Day.[24] She

keeps a portion of herself separate in the fish tank of her office, in the appearance of an eel.When attacked in the final episode this part rejoins her main body. She is focused on developingartificial intelligence using The Turk, the intuitive computer at first believed to be a precursor toSkynet (but later shown to be a separate entity). She targets other Terminators to reverse-engineer Skynet technology in the present, and to prepare for the future war. She plans on usingthis research to fight Skynet. Despite the revelation that Weaver is an enemy of Skynet, it is stillunknown where her allegiance lies.[25] Weaver hints at her motives in the episode "Born to Run"when she asks Cameron, "Will you join us?" through messenger James Ellison. During theepisode "Today Is the Day, part 2" Cameron explains to Jesse Flores that John Connor asked thesame question of the T-1001 in an attempt to forge an alliance against Skynet.[24]

When the house is invaded by human assassins acting for the apparent proto-Skynet, Charley is killed enabling John Connor to escape.

Stephanie Jacobsen as Jesse Flores:

In her timeline, shesailed to Australia to deliver supplies aboard the upgraded nuclear submarine USS Jimmy Carter,captained by a reprogrammed Terminator, Queeg, of which she is the executive officer. Queegdiverts the submarine to pick up a package and return it to John Connor. Her crew is curious ofwhat is in the package so they open it. Inside is a T-1001 and one of the crew members, awoman, points her gun at it. The T-1001 kills her and takes her form, then shakes its finger at therest of the crew. Queeg kills a crewman after he beat on Jesse. Jesse does not trust Queeg soshe relieves him of command. Queeg does not obey her orders so she terminates him anddestroys the submarine in an attempt to kill the T-1001. On her way out, she encounters the T-1001 and it tells her, "the answer is no." In 2007, she is on a possibly self-imposed mission to findand stop Cameron from adversely influencing young John, by recruiting Riley Dawson in thefuture and bringing her back to frame Cameron for her murder. In the future from which Jessecomes, John has withdrawn from humans and speaks only with Cameron. It is unclear whetherthis mission is self-appointed, but comments by her and the fact she was able to access the timetravel machinery with Riley suggests others in the Resistance leadership group may share herconcerns about Cameron's influence on John. John Connor later figures out that Jesse killedRiley and informs Derek, but orders her life to be spared. Derek confronts Jesse. He tells her thatthey are from two different futures and that he doesn't know who she is. He tells her, "JohnConnor wanted to let you go. I'm not John Connor." He pulls his gun on her and she takes offrunning. Whether or not Derek actually kills her is left ambiguous, although he does pull thetrigger on his handgun. When asked about it by John he just says, "John Connor wanted to let hergo." This could either mean that he obeyed John Connor's order or since he is not John Connor,he didn't want to let her go and he shot her. Later on in a flashback, Cameron is seen talking toJesse. Cameron tells her that she is sorry for her loss. She says that the pressure from leavingthe submarine killed her baby, she was pregnant with Derek's baby. Jesse tells Cameron, "TellJohn Connor it said "The answer is no"" Then, Jesse asks Cameron, "If the answer is no, whatwas the question?" Cameron answers with, "Will you join us?" Cameron tells Derek about themiscarriage and he says he never had any kids.

On November 9, 2005, Variety reported that a television series based on the Terminator franchise was being produced by

C2 Pictures, which produced Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, in association with Warner Bros. Television. The Fox

Broadcasting Company also joined the project by making a commitment to the pilot, with Josh Friedman set to write the

pilot and to serve as an executive producer for the series. Among the executive producers were C2 Pictures' Andy Vajna,

Mario Kassar and James Middleton.[26]

The series, initially titled The Sarah Connor Chronicles, focuses on the character Sarah Connor who is on the run with her

son after the events of Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Regarding the character, Middleton said, "She has the weight of the

world on her shoulders and also has to raise a teenage son who may be the salvation of humanity." Friedman commented

that the series would contain fewer action sequences due to the smaller budget of television in contrast to feature films.[26]

Fox Broadcasting greenlit production on August 28, 2006, after Warner Bros. Television hired David Nutter to direct the

pilot.[27] The series was among seven new TV shows picked up by Fox on May 13, 2007 for its 2007-08 television season.[28]

In regards to the plot of the series, Friedman said the show would avoid the "Terminator of the Week" plot device, and that

Sarah, John, and Cameron will have other threats than just Terminators. Skynet would also come into play as the series

progresses. Furthermore, Friedman stated that the events of Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines occur in an alternate

timeline from that of the TV series.[7] In addition to having planned the entire story arc for the first season, Friedman has a

rough idea for the plot of the following three seasons.[29] The series focused extensively on exploring religious and

humanistic themes and ideas as had been started by the first movies in the Terminator franchise.[30]

At the 2008 press tour, the show's cast and crew promised season two would be less serialized than the first.[31] Producer

Josh Friedman said his plans were to incorporate the unfilmed storylines from the remaining four episodes of season one

into the start of season two.[32]

The pilot episode was filmed primarily in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The principal photography started on January 24,

2007 and took approximately one month to complete.[23][33] Subsequent episodes in the series were filmed in the backlot of

Warner Brothers Studios in Burbank, California, on a set previously used by Gilmore Girls to depict their fictional town,

Stars Hollow.[34]

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles features incidental music composed by Bear McCreary. For financial reasons, the

main theme of the Terminator film series, originally composed by Brad Fiedel, is featured only briefly in the TV series—

mainly during the title sequence.[35] McCreary has stated that his score is inspired by the tone of Fiedel's score in the first

two Terminator films and since Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles is a direct sequel to Terminator 2: JudgmentDay, he felt that the tone of the music should be consistent with that of the film as much as possible.[35][36] He began

working on the score by recording metallic sounds, using "oil cans, whale drums, chains, anvils, brake drums, garbage cans,

thundersheets, tin cans...", after which he edited the samples and created his own custom library of metallic drums.[36] For

every episode thereafter, live metal percussion elements were recorded on top of the electronics.[36] While Fiedel's scores

were performed using synthesizers, McCreary chose to use an ensemble of electric string instruments instead.[36]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminator:_The_Sarah_Connor_Chronicles 7/15

A musical theme was created for each of the principal characters. The theme for Sarah Connor is the most frequently used

theme in addition to being the longest and the most developed theme in the series.[36][37] There are two main sections to

Sarah's theme with one presenting her "bad-ass, stoic warrior" side and the other as "a loving mother".[37] John's theme was

originally composed for a specific scene in the pilot episode and performed with a solo clarinet to convey his loneliness and

awkwardness.[37] McCreary stated that the "musical ambiguity in the melody" is used to show John's transformation in the

series.[37] Although themes were also written for other characters such as Derek Reese, James Ellison and the "evil

terminator[s]", no themes were written for Cameron during the first season because McCreary felt that "her character was

defined by her relationship with John, Sarah and the others around her" so Sarah's or John's theme was used in most of her

scenes.[37]

The series mainly features McCreary's original score. Songs and instrumental music from other sources are used sparingly.

Alter Bridge's single "Rise Today" was used for the promotion of the first season and Robyn's "Crash and Burn Girl" in the

second season. Three songs were used in the series: "The Man Comes Around" by Johnny Cash was used in the first-season

finale and a cover of "Samson and Delilah" by Shirley Manson was used in the second-season premiere. Both songs were

background music for action sequences in their respective episodes. The second-season episode "The Mousetrap" features

"Safe Within Your Arms" by Greg Garing. "Nocturne in C-sharp minor" by Frédéric Chopin was used in the first-season

episode "The Demon Hand". The episode "Mr. Ferguson Is Ill Today" features the song "La Llorona", originally written and

recorded by Chavela Varga but Bear McCreary made his own version of it. The episode "Adam Raised a Cain" features a

moody cover of "Donald, Where's Your Trousers" originally written and recorded by Andy Stewart, performed by Garret

Dillahunt and Mackenzie Brooke Smith at the closing. The record label La-La Land Records released the original television

soundtrack for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles on December 23, 2008.[38]

Prior to its broadcast on television, Fox undertook a large marketing effort to promote the show, which was described by Joe

Earley, Fox Executive Vice President of Marketing and Communications, as the "biggest campaign for a new mid-season

show in years."[39] The advertising campaign began months prior to the premiere date to make sure that it would attract

existing Terminator fans as well as welcome in new fans.[40] After 24 was postponed to the 2008-09 TV season, more time

was devoted to the show by Fox's marketing team and more on-air promotional spots were available for the show that would

otherwise have gone to 24.[40]

Fox began their advertising campaign for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles on September 27, 2007, with a brief

teaser which ran during primetime programs, consisting of an image of two red dots that lasted for a few seconds on screen

before disappearing.[39] The two red dots were revealed to be the eyes of the Terminators from the show in the second phase

of the advertising campaign, which began two weeks later. The final phase of the campaign commenced in November 2007

with more broadcast information being added to the advertisements.

In addition to on-air teasers, Fox heavily promoted the show during the World Series by releasing the first 45-second

preview for the show on October 27, 2007. Other forms of advertisements used included: mobile tours on "Terminator"

buses sponsored by Verizon Wireless; an interactive cell phone game based on the series offered by Verizon's V CAST, which

rewarded the players with ring tones, wallpapers and behind-the-scenes footage; cable tie-ins; online outreach via the official

website and wiki; online sneak peeks; and a poster design contest run by Fox.[41] Advance screenings of the pilot episode

were also held at the 2007 Comic-Con International convention and at Golden Apple Comics in Los Angeles on January 4,

2008.

In Super Bowl XLII, a Terminator was featured in a brief advertisement fighting Cleatus the Fox Sports Robot.[42]

Billboard advertisements, which were described by Variety to have "blanketed New York and L.A.", contained images of

Summer Glau's Terminator in a "Lady Godiva-esque pose" used to target the young-male demographic, while the key art

emphasized on Sarah Connor being at the core of the show to attract the "mom demo".[40] Fox originally planned for more

outdoor marketing in other cities but the marketing budget was reduced because of the Writers' Strike.[40]

A promotional partnership with automobile manufacturer Dodge began in the show's second season and featured placement

of Dodge products in several episodes, Dodge's exclusive sponsorship of the extended, 52-minute episode "Goodbye to All

That," and a four-week vehicle giveaway entitled "The Never Back Down Challenge."[43]

An extended cut of the pilot was publicly screened for the first time on July 28, 2007, at the 2007 Comic-Con International

convention.[44] Originally scheduled to premiere on January 14, 2008, the television broadcast of the show was rescheduled

to commence on January 13, 2008, after Fox reorganized their broadcast timetable due to the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of

America (WGA) strike.[45] As such, Fox's original intention to air Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles in the Monday

8:00 p.m. ET timeslot as a lead-in program for 24 was also changed. The show was moved to the Monday 9:00 p.m. ET

timeslot with Prison Break as its lead-in program.[46]

Following the resolution of the WGA Strike, the Los Angeles Times printed a chart indicating the status of American network

television series. The chart, reprinted by a number of other websites, categorized the series as "on the bubble" (in danger of

cancellation).[47] The Hollywood Reporter stated that the show would likely return.[48] TV Guide then reported that "Fox has

given producers the green light to start booking directors for next season's first three episodes".[49] Fox later confirmed that

the series would indeed receive a second season, which began on September 8, 2008, in the Monday 8:00 p.m. ET timeslot.

Due to schedule changes from Fox, the show had a two-month break between December 16, 2008 – February 12, 2009. The

show then aired on Fridays at 8:00 p.m. ET. The show was officially canceled on May 18, 2009.

On February 22, 2011, the Syfy channel announced it had gained the rights to all 31 episodes of the series, which began

airing on April 7, 2011.[50]

The first season was released on August 11, 2008 in the United Kingdom,[51] on August 13, 2008 in Australia,[52] and on

August 19, 2008 in North America.[53] The Region 1 DVD set contains all nine episodes aired from the first season,

commentary on select episodes, audition tapes for select actors, video of Summer Glau practicing for her ballet scenes,

making of features, and deleted scenes for certain episodes. The Region 2 and 4 versions have all nine episodes but has

excluded all the special features apart from the deleted scenes. On the other hand, both the three-disc Blu-ray sets released

in North America and Europe contain the same bonus features offered by the Region 1 DVD set. On the Blu-ray Disc set,

each episode is encoded in 1080p, VC-1 compression with a 1.78:1 aspect ratio and is presented with a Dolby Digital 5.1

audio track.

The second season was released on September 22, 2009 in North America and on November 16, 2009 in the United

Kingdom on DVD and Blu-ray.

In Ireland the second season was released along with a boxset containing the first and second seasons of the show on

November 16, 2009. The North American release date was originally planned to "coincide with the home video release of the

summer blockbuster Terminator Salvation", but the release of Terminator Salvation was later postponed to December 1,

2009.[54][55] In New Zealand the second season DVD set was released on November 11, 2009[56] as was a boxed set

containing both seasons.

Following the announcement of the show's fate, fans have led numerous campaigns to revive the show ever since.[57] Josh

Friedman dismissed crowdfunding in March 2013 due to issues involving holder rights, according to IGN.[58] A movie was

also considered, as Thomas Dekker and producer James Middleton confirmed in interviews.[59][60] Cinemablend chose

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles as one of the "12 Shows Fox Should Be Embarrassed About Canceling" in

October 2015.[61]

The show was officially canceled on May 18, 2009. A third season was not produced.

The series premiere in the United States was watched by 18.3 million viewers during its premiere timeslot on January 13,

2008.[64]

On Metacritic, a review aggregator which assigns a normalized score out of 100 to each review, the first season currently

holds an average score of 74 based on 24 reviews.[65] The second season has a score of 67, based on only 4 reviews.[66] USAToday gave the premiere episode four and a half stars out of five, calling the series, "smart, tough and entertaining."[67] TheNew York Times referred to it as "one of the more humanizing adventures in science fiction to arrive in quite a while",[68]

while the Los Angeles Times declared the show "has heart and feeling" and "an almost Shakespearean exploration of fate vs.

character" that features "plenty of really great fight scenes, and explosions, as well as neat devices developed in the future

and jury-rigged in the present."[69] In addition, film industry journal Daily Variety declared the series pilot "a slick brand

extension off this profitable assembly line" that showcases "impressive and abundant action with realistic visual effects and,

frankly, plenty of eye candy between Glau and Headey."[70] At the start of the second season, Variety praised "Headey's gritty

performance as Sarah—managing to be smart, resourceful and tough, yet melancholy and vulnerable as well" and that the

Chronicles "continue to deliver", getting "considerable mileage out of the constant peril" facing the characters.[71] The

Connecticut Post placed it on its list of the top 10 TV shows of 2008: "It's smart, with thought-provoking meditations on

parenthood, destiny and human nature, and features good performances by Lena Headey, as Sarah, and Summer Glau."[72]

Not all response was positive. The Futon Critic, in a June 14, 2007 review of the pilot episode, declared "it's actually far more

ingrained into the Terminator mythology than you'd expect," but stated "this installment feels less like a 'pilot' and more like

an excuse to rearrange the deck chairs on the 'Terminator' franchise to potentially have a TV show."[6] One negative report

from La Lámina Corredora reported "the pilot feels too much like a cheap remake of T2."[73] Tim Goodman of the SanFrancisco Chronicle derided the entire conceptualization and production of the series. Though limited to his viewing of the

first two episodes, Goodman leveled criticism against Fox for having "taken the wholly predictable course of putting a lot of

money into explosions and regenerating cyborgs" but not having "paid much attention to plot, casting or writing."[74]

In its review of the second season, IGN felt despite a few middling episodes and the restrictions of a TV budget, "[the series]

turned out to be intelligent, complex and consistently operated on a deeper emotional level than anyone could have

expected."[75] Looking back on the series, Alan Sepinwall of The Star-Ledger was disappointed by Sarah and John as well as

the sluggish pace of the show; however, he felt these weaknesses were outweighed by the strength of the performances of

Summer Glau, Brian Austin Green and Garret Dillahunt as well as the writers' commitment to showing the emotional toll on

the characters. Commenting on the final episode of season two, he called it a "terrific" finale which took the show in a new

potential-filled direction.[76] In May 2009 the show won the E!Online "Save One Show" poll, and has received positive

coverage from places such as Wired and CNN.[77][78][79] In an effort to keep the series on the air, fans created support

communities on Facebook and MySpace and uploaded videos to YouTube.[3] Creator Josh Friedman confirmed to

CliqueClack that he has vowed to never reveal how the series would have progressed or ended.[80]
