Movie Trivia: The Sarah Connor Chronicles Roll On
At this point, I’m really rather confused. The Sarah Connor Chronicles, yet another knee-jerk sci-fi show from Fox that’ll be lucky to last three seasons, has been renewed for a second season. By all accounts, the best people can say about this show is that it’s action-packed; reading several reviews has shown that’s the nicest (and most repeated) thing that can be said for it. Meanwhile, detractors are quick to point out the new Terminator’s frequent propensity for wisecracks (did Skynet install a classic action hero mode while we were away?) and relative lack of substance.
Oh, and let’s not forget the season one finale—several audience members are STILL moaning over that train wreck. But let’s be honest. Broadcast TV has been steadily crumbling for years. Aside from a handful of bright spots, most shows that debut on television will be gone in a year or less. I’ve seen some shows that can’t last more than four episodes before getting the axe. Several die after the pilot!
Which means, anything even vaguely good, which The Sarah Connor Chronicles can be described as—loosely—qualifies for second season status.

I couldn’t even make it through the pilot. But I think it’s arguably worse that Knight Rider actually got picked up.
That’s a tough call, Liz…making a fresh mistake is somewhat better than repeating an old mistake, but still. It’s Knight Rider.
