My favorite terminator was the series on Fox
That series was amazing. I'm not sure they would have held it together for another season, but I really feel like they did enough work to have the chance for it. But they were really tap-dancing around the timeline, though.

I got to meet Summer Glau at a convention once, and she is such a low-key person. Not that I expected her to be hyper or anything, but she is a really solid example of how some actors are quiet and introverted off screen.

Fox, they cancel every show that does well.
Yeah. This was specifically true with scifi shows. FOX was really good about adding scifi shows to their lineup, but they had no loyalty and zero idea how to cultivate an audience. I used to call their end of week lineup the Friday Night Death Slots, because I knew any show set for that wasn't going to make it for very long.

I think what happened was that lightning struck with X-Files, and then they spent years trying to make that happen again without realizing that that's not how it works. Heck, they almost sabotaged X-Files by moving it around and forcing executive decisions. The only reason that show survived and prospered is because it's fanbase was hardcore and ride or die for it no matter what they did.

You do realize X-Files got canceled?! They only brought it back cause of the demand from people writing in and this was before internet outrage

everything that came after that was a joke. the franchise is dead. i hope it stays that way

I literally said that its fanbase kept it alive, so I'm not sure what you're going for here.

I actually liked the Terminator tv show
Thought it was pretty good

It got canceled because Fox network is run by idiots
They put the 2nd season on a different timeslot (Friday nights)
And it didn't get the ratings to justify the production budget

That Faux will shoot itself in the dyck thinking they are making chess moves. Family Guy, Futurama, X-Files, Terminator, Doll House and Firefly and that is just off the top of my head

T2, T1, Dark Fate, and T3 were all good movies, in my opinion. Salvation and Geneysis? Have no clue what they were thinking with those....

I gotcha. Them being quick to cancel was part of it, too. There' sa solid half dozen or so more shows that had potential and never got the chance to develop.

I hope you stick with it I love the show. It doesn't have modern pacing though where they throw everything at you at once which I personally like when things build up. I hate most modern tv shows and movies they be doing too much imo.

and it ended fucked up ...lol...dam not even a 2hr tv show to tie shit up ...wow ...

i know fans of the show were tight ...lol

Netflix started streaming in 2007 ...so they were still fairly yung when it got cancelled ...

I'm glad you stuck with it. Yeah it was a combination of things the budget and ratings contributed. It got great ratings at first and they stuck it in the Friday night death slot smh. I believe Fox had to choose between cancelling this and dollhouse and they cancelled the more expensive show which was terminator.

I know some people thought maybe a network like scifi would pick it up but it never happened and yeah I'm right about the cliff hanger to this day. This was imo a perfect way to freshen up the Terminator franchise I feel the show is so underappreciated.

No doubt although I'm usually a more story drive type of dude and don't care as much about the cgi this show would probably do a lot better today.

I haven't seen it in years but theres a bootleg edit called the Coming storm which fixes some of the things I found annoying in the original cut like the bad jokes
