    Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles returns with a solidly enjoyable action-oriented outing.
  2. The transformations aren't complete by episode's end--though at least Dekker chops off his floppy Emo bangs--but it's a step in the right direction for a series that struggled to live up to its potential and pedigree last spring.
  3. My interest ebbs and flows depending not on the plot but on which character is in the action.

    As the series continues to complicate the relations among past, present, and future, Ellison’s part in any of them is increasingly difficult to frame.

I mean she blew off a terminators head with a shotgun come on and the love story just seemed very lame in my opinion. I'm actually glad they ended the show. I'm sorry I have to be one of the few negative reviews on this page but the show was just bad. I mean I liked all the movies better than this show. I mean they use the time Machine wayyy too much and yeah it's just not good at all in my opinion. Terminator 2 is still the best. Full Review »

The action sequences were never lacking; Cameron is awesome! Side-stories and flashbacks were interesting rather than just adding to character development. The plot came together well with time, and the finale blew me away. Other than a few episodes, I found this season well paced. Full Review »

It's good that it's over. The season has become twice as long and twice as boring. It is very tedious and practically not interesting to watch the actions of the characters who are introduced into the plot, and then thrown out in a couple of seconds. The series was unfinished and left a lot of questions. Full Review »
