Tonight's Episode Of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles [12-08-2008]...

[Zim Hosein]

Sarah and Cameron try to protect a family linked to Derek; Jesse's life is endangered.

Episode #0212, "Alpine Fields."

 

[IHateMyJob2004]

Missed first 5 minutes, what is up with the new family?

A very interesting other story line episode. Not really sure about the Jesse part from the preshowsnippet, but some of the how the humans are living stuff was pretty neat.

Rabbits!

Hmmm... can't say that was one of the better episodes. Very Derek-centric, not enough use of Cameron, and 'improper use' (?) of Sarah.

So what does John do during these escapades...

 

[PottedMeat]

At least they explain Derrick gf's accent. So she came off a US nuclear sub ( jimmy carter? ) on a supply run from perth australia to LA?

furiously beats off to Cam

/looks for more companies with 3 dots?

Episode was alright - what kind of Terminator was that that kicked Cam's butt?

Makes you wonder that it could have been a higher model than a 888 right?

i didnt mind this episode at all. wasnt the greatest, but wasnt even close to bad. of course im also in the camp who thinks that derek and james ellison are not utilized enough in the show and i was getting tired of riley and her crazy random bullshit. so a change from all that was welcomed.

edit: reworded the second sentence and also came in to add in once again... one of the best shows on right now!

 

[Testify]

LMAO, when Cameron mistakenly knocked off that neighbor guy.

4/5

The show is interesting, but I sometimes wonder if the two episodic story arcs each week tie into each other. Like tonight's. Sure it was a good story, but are these two sisters going to be important in future episodes or the movies? They have nothing to do with the overall story arc of the show and they were introduced the week prior to the season finale.

I guess my only gripe with this AWESOME show is that this seasons overall design could have been better.

 

[Newbian]

So why was the religious medal a target?

Probably the last time you see or hear about the two sister. This show gets rid of people very quick.

Both the last two episodes where stand alone episodes and do not tie into any other episodes. They where basically filler episodes.

But they were actually interesting, unlike some other shows.

*cough* BSG *cough*.

I think of these episodes as TSCC's version of 'monster of the week' episodes like Buffy and Angel.

 

[Nerva]

i definitely think that the show is underrated, but the writing from episode to episode has too much variability. still, kudos for this season being much better than the last.

agreed Riley is the only character I really hate and story arcs involving her are generally not great at least compared to the rest of the series

Probably because it can reflect light and give away ones hiding spot IMO Newbian.

 

[abaez]

The past three episodes were kinda blah, but I enjoyed this ep.
