As far as any spin-off from a very successful movie will go, this is a very impressive adaptation of the Terminator saga to the small screen. While it is true that there are not that many special effects, probably due to budget constraints, it does not matter that much. Indeed, the acting and the scripts make up for that. It is a fast-paced storyline about Sara Connor as she tries to escape from the terminators coming from the future to eradicate her and her son. They are being joined by the very pretty female robot who has also travelled back in time to help them. I did not know what to expect but this is very good and also rather inexpensive, so buy it!

When I heard about this show, I was both excited and angry. I always thought the Terminator COULD make a decent television show, but i don't trust Fox. They tend to create great shows and then cancel them before they can find their audience. They canceled Firefly, Dark Angel, Point Pleasant, Space Above and Beyond, and Drive (an amazingly addictive show that they didn't let reach the fourth episode). They even tried to cancel Family Guy.
I knew it would be a decent show, but i was afraid to invest myself in anything remotely related to Fox and have it taken away AGAIN. I'm still worried (Dark Angel was given a Second Season), but I'm glad I gave it a chance.
This show does everything right. I'd heard it was taking place after T2 and before Judgement Day. So i was afraid they'd write themselves into a corner with the set future of the rather awful T3. A quick time travel jump in the first episode immediately erases T3 from the Timeline. "There is no fate but what we make."
The whole cast is about as good as Television can get. Summer Glau is especially amazing as John Conner's new protector. But it is when Kyle Reese's brother is introduced that the show really takes off. Yes Brian Austin Greene is a strange choice for the part, but he really pulls it off.
We see how a terminator goes about regenerating it's living tissue when it has been overly damaged. We see more of the future (including a couple of the rubber skinned terminator models mentioned in the original film). We meet some of Sarah Conner's gun running connections from before her time in the institution. And we see plenty of Terminator on Terminator violence. What a great show.

I remember from before any episodes were aired, this series was getting a lot of negative buzz for whatever reason.
Most people who would consider watching this have already seen the terminator movies, as did any sci-fi or action fan. This series is similar in tone to the cult-favorite second movie although it is a better drama overall.
There are a couple of things that make it the series to watch.
Acting. Relative unknowns have been cast in main roles. I'd say the girl playing Sarah Connor is OK, the girl playing Cameron (the terminator) is good... and that's the worse end of the stick. Guys take the cake on this one. Young J.Connor, Agent Alison, and Derek Reese, Cromartie are played amazingly.
I like the music in the show, too. Most of it is a derivative of the main theme in the movies, although not as blunt. Lyrical melody is mixed with synthetic drum beats to great effect, IMO. I simply love the piece playing at main menus on DVD. It puts you in a right mood for watching this tale.
There are several main story arcs, and a couple of secondary arcs throughout the first season. There are no stand-alone episodes. Lastly, the episodes (and maybe the writing) get better the farther you are in the season. The last episode was probably the best example of the potential and of what there is to come in later seasons.

The Sarah Connor Chronicles is like having a cliff hanger at the end of every episode.
There so many crappy shows on right now, it is good to have something keep my attention from beginning to end.
The series started a little slow as we got to know the actors/characters and bringing Brian Austin Green in brought some grit to the stories.
Looking forward to season 2 next week !!!

I've really fallen for this show. I think the program is solidly cast with some great actors; the action scenes are realistic, good scripts, and a lot of fun to watch. It turned out to be more than I expected (I didn't expect much), and it's now become one of my favorite shows on television at the moment. SO many police and lawyer procedural shows are now on, I look forward to the escapism this show provides. No bad dreams. Lena Headey is fantastic, as is, well all four of the major players are excellent. Highly recommend, especially if your getting a bit stale on CSI's, Police dramas, half-hour comedies and Lawyer programs. It's wonderful to see great SciFi coming back to television again. This CD set is definitely worth owning, and has a lot of extras.
