Terminator 204 "Allison From Palmdale" - Discuss/Grade <SPOILER>
- Thread starter nx1701g

We do know it's part of the promotional material for the season.
or it's just an empty shell. Hopefully we'll see the "daughter" before the series ends talking in particular.
The code was broken by Cromartie in last week's episode, so there really was no sense in the Connors still using it.
As for the ratings, they're low, but there hasn't been much erosion over the last couple of weeks. Maybe if Fox put the show in a better time slot...but that would make too much sense.
Does anyone know what the per-episode budget is and how that number compares to other shows on TV?
I had read that the budget per episode is between 5 - 7 million.
I have a couple of theories relating to the daughter - none of which involve her being T-1001.
1.) She is an actual human being raised by the T-1001. We have seen that the new series terminators in the show can have full relationships with humans and trick them. It is entirely possible too that the kid is with nannies or the like most of the time and would have no indication that her mother isn't her mother.
2.) The child was born to the Weavers; however, she was modified by the T-1001 and made into an I-950. In the novels this was done to a human child (though still in the womb).
That struck me as strange, too. Very small incident for a store to be worrying about. They'd more likely be worried she had some kind of seizure in the store and was going to sue them blind, you know, because she was there at the time. This is California.
You should check out foreign TV sometime. It's wall to wall reality show crap. They rely on America to provide scripted drama (like the insanely popular CSI shows). The dancing show nonsense CAME from foreigners. America is the last bastion of scripted drama. It's basically down to us and the Latin Americans with their soaps.Ya know looking at this I'm angry. How the hell does a show like dancing with fucking stars get such unreal sky high ratings!??! My god!!! Apparently America is completely filled with stupid morons!
It would seem the international world at large is correct about us.
The world is even stupider than Americans, that's the scary part.
Which is why we can't afford to lose scripted shows because ain't nobody else producing them
While a cop might be a first responder even on a medical 911 call, assuming he wasn't just a beat cop who came on the scene I had a WTF moment when Cameron was in a holding cell and not a hospital for test.
Korean dramas seemed to be playing the Asian markets.
Am I the only one who thinks that Busy Phillip's character might be the mother of Derek and Kyle Reese... it would explain while so much attention is being spent on her. Hell, at one point (when Sarah and the Baby-Daddy were walking in the corridor) I thought the Cop was going to get a call and identify himself as "Reese".
Oh yeah! Well, shit, there goes my theory. I guess the pregnant chick is there for no reason.
Average. Who'da thought they could turn the origin of Cameron into filler?
I do, but that doesn't change the fact that the show still sucks now. I'd rather Fox have just killed it outright like Firefly. Then I could rail against Fox's idiocy while still remembering how awesome the first season was. Instead, they've done something even worse and lobotomised it.
Warner Brothers is making the movie nd the TV show for that matter, it's just shone on Fox.

I really wish they would hurry the F*ck up and tell the stories that we want. This Filler crap is even pissing me off. Its the terminator not Dawsons creek. I cant stand that Fat B!tch!
