Who saw Sarah Connor last night??

Wow!...An entire episode devoted to Summer, and it was awesome!

Summer as a robot, Summer as a real live girl, Summer talking at length, Summer with normal girlish emotions, Summer running, Summer fighting, Summer being interrogated, Summer being killed by her own doppleganger...Summer, Summer, and then more Summer!!

I feel sorry for those that chose to watch "Chuck" or "Dancing With The Stars". You can't even imagine what you missed. Also, it's people like you that are hurting Summer's show's ratings. Wake up!

You forgot "Big Bang Theory" - often quite fun!

I did watch Sarah Connor last night and quite enjoyed having it be all about Cameron/Summer. Unfortunately, she seems to be the only part of the show that makes me want to keep checking in. I still can't say I'm hooked on the show itself...

CHUCK was awesome, as usual.
I'll take Adam over Summer any day. =P

Besides, the VCR captured Summer for me....

HELL'S KITTEN


It's an archaic device invented sometime in a previous century that utilizes - hee, get this - tape and magnetics to capture motion onto something approximately the size of a stonemason's small brick. People can actually watch this captured motion, too, with the same contraption! It's quite novel. The model I currently posses comes complete with a crank shaft and a boiler for highly efficient steam powering. One day, I may move into the current century, but technology both confuses and frightens me. XD

Thanks for the bit of enlightenment. I do remember seeing a device like that when I was at The Smithsonian Museum a few years ago. It had a top that popped up, and a long remote wire coming out of it. It was on display next to something called a typewriter.

Okay, Summer deserves a nomination for that!
Easily the best episode of the season... if not the entire series!

That episode was SO amazing! Future scenes were amazing and I hope they carry over some of the emotions she felt because it was really interesting!!! But NEVER say bad things about Chuck!!! Adam Baldwin is AMAZING in that and I taped it!! But only because I wanted to watch Sarah connor in HD.

Real glad you saw Summer at her best! No one here said anything bad about Chuck...but I'm a guy...so what do you want from me. I'm taking Summer over Adam all day long...sorry.

And where the hell is the rest of world's support for Summer? She's doing AMAZING work, and it's like no one gives a shit. This board has lost something special if FFF folks can't support her.

Hmmm, mine has the wheels & the rats running in them...I do so enjoy lo-tech.

I buy DVD's of shows I tape that I like enough, though. One foot in the past- one in the future.

Yeah, yeah and thrice yeah.

She was in almost every scene. It must have been great for Summer to play all those emotions (and hard). She was amazingly convincing in each role and was different enough in each but they also had similarities as well. A top performance that shows just how far she has grown acting wise (not that I ever thought she couldn't act).

It was definitely strange trying to work out what was going on with her in the beginning. Were the flashbacks real or made up. Was the prisoner Alison really human or just a Terminator acting the part to infiltrate.
So Future John picks human Alison for whatever reason. The Terminators get her. Cameron (I assume) then uses her to get to Future John to kill him. I assume again that the talk of peace was a lie. What happens after Cameron gets in the camp? Was Future John in love with Alison? This may explain his feelings towards Cameron in both times.

I love this show.

She'll be nominated for another Saturn Award for sure, as for the Emmys? They're not big on Sci-Fi.

That's really a perfect description of the amazing episode. Summer has never acted so much in her life. That performance was like the Three Faces Of Eve, only ten times better. Was it better than the BDM? I won't even go there. But I totally am Summer crazy all anew, and it's all I thought about all day.

It is nice that FOX has episodes available on their web site. I give them credit for that. So now I have seen both Sarah and Chuck.

Summer does great work on this show. They have her do a great range of characters and emotions. It looks like we are in for a rollercoaster ride with her character.

I do not know if she will get any awards or not, but she is major player on this show and will continue to be. She also picks good shows to work on. This was a well written episode. The creators are taking this show through several levels and and not getting stuck in a pattern.

Now to sit back and watch Fringe. This turning out to be a good year.

Summer has all the talent in the world to do any role she wishes. I was totally blown away by her performance!

or if you don't live in the US like me you can watch TSCC, Chuck, & The Big Bang Theory through other means :D. For me though TSCC is the weakest out of the three, 89% of the reason why I watch it is cause of Summer.......................nah 100%
