Is Cameron trained in anti-terminator Karate. She has beaten mutliple terminators now in a row... She took her/it out with minimal damage...

I am starting to think that Cameron is a T-900 series. They were designed to destroy other Cybernetic Organisms.

Wow John got his first kill...
And now I know why Dekker said he got in trouble with the producers - he revealed that after Samson & Delilah was aired.

that's gotta be the quickest disposal of the Terminator of the week yet

Why did the red headed terminator stop fighting when the people got on the elevator

Infiltration - they're slaves to their program.

she didn't seem like an infiltrator to me, she seemed like a run of the mill go and kill terminator

All of the ones with skin are infiltrators. They're terminators in endoskeleton mode.

Above average for me. I liked the whole AWOL and PTSD angle to the episode. Overall this season is not as fast paced as the first but I really like it. November looks to be a good month and not just because it includes my birthday.:lol:

I'm in love with Summer Glau, just wanted to state that
 
Re: Terminator 206 "The Tower is Tall but the Fall is Short" - Thread<

All in all an above average episode. I enjoyed them showing more of the T-1001's thought process and that they're bringing in new angles to the Terminator mythos.

By the way, Jim Cameron and William Wisher were reported to visit the set of the series the other day. Wisher said it was a worthy successor to the films.

Well this was fun as usual. Let's do it again in November.:techman:

"Your daughter has signs of Asperger's." :lol:

That was a good character development episode. Sure, the Contortionator was just a throw-away, but I'll take her over Riley and that stupid intro monologue. Also nice to see a return of Sarah's voice-over at the beginning of the episode; we've had too little of that this season. I think this episode has been a nice return to the deeper character-driven plots of last season.

I'm really warming up to Shirley Manson's character; she's deliciously devious. The way she "adapts" to manipulate Savannah's trust was quite disturbing.

The producers do need to kill off a couple of the tertiary characters, though. Things are getting a wee bit complicated. :lol:

EDIT. So I'm wondering if Ellison might be the one that bites it (as nx suggested a while back). He's getting rather curious and the promo implies that he might be working with Sarah in upcoming episodes (but I've learned never to believe a Fox promo).

^ See I really don't know how they're going to kill off any of the characters now. A lot of them have become major fan favorites.

NX1701G - Playing the Reaper:

1.) Cromartie - just because he's a Terminator
2.) James Ellison - has never appeared in any other Terminator media
3.) Derek Reese - the appearance of Jesse tonight makes me wonder if he's her target
4.) Sarah Connor - despite being named after her I could see Sarah getting killed off
5.) Riley - Fans hate her, Fox likes her
6.) Cameron Phillips - too much of a fan favorite
7.) John Connor - he dies the series would end.
8.) T-1001 - I doubt they'll kill her off. I think she'll become the big bad.

I think it's Derek who's on his way out, sadly.
 
Re: Terminator 206 "The Tower is Tall but the Fall is Short" - Thread<

Eh she was annyoying. Her "cuteness" is subjective, but I didn't like her and it was too obvious Fox wanted us to look at her tits.
What's wrong about that? She had some nice sized bazongas!
