I want him out of the show,I want him dead!
The show can be more nice without him.His nothing to do with the Connors!
He's just an agent trying hard to fix the cases and mysteries about cyborgs but unfortunately
he did nothing but to intimidate the main cast.Maybe try to put another character better than that!

He helped out in the end. I think he should stay. Do you find this valuable?

Ellison is a good character in the show, I like him, but he could speak less about all that Bible stuff, its boring already. Do you find this valuable?

"Ellison is a good character in the show, I like him, but he could speak less about all that Bible stuff, its boring already."
I think that enough bible references have been made. Sarah quotes it, Ellison does, episode titles with references... enough is enough. That can go. I'd love to see Ellison act without his faith.

Ellison and Sarah are essentially the only ones left in the present to fight Skynet and prevent Judgment Day. From my profile page:

"Ellison has no doubt completed his conversion to a Sarah Connor believer. After starting the series as an unbelieving FBI agent who has read Sarahs explanations in her Pescadero file, he has now seen almost everything that she said come true. He has personally seen virtually unkillable terminators skinned to look like people, a liquid metal terminator morphing, a functioning AI with some human characteristics, a uniquely shaped flying machine that can be used to kill people, and a time machine. He is ready to take her place fighting proto Skynets, similar to Silberman converting into a believer and taking Sarahs place at Pescadero."

And things that need to be done in Season 3:

"Ellison becomes the new CEO of Zeira and works to secure it from further attack by the Kaliba AI. This includes distributing activities into multiple redundant secret locations, the creation of a specially trained armed private security force, and the tasking of the John Henry clone still in the Zeira basement to providing computer security and prosecuting a cyber war against the Kaliba AI. This last may involve installing John Henry into military computer systems to establish defenses against the Kaliba AI, entrusting John Henry with the power to cause Judgment Day. We see Zeiras new high tech secret locations, and we see clashes between Zeira Corp and Water Guy armed agents.

"Ellison becomes Savannahs guardian, and she becomes the proxy for the child he always wanted but never got. Ellison protects and hides Sarah. He is able to get her medical attention. While she is being treated, he consults with her for strategy and tactics to use against the Kaliba AI."

We see at the end that Sarah did not stop Judgment Day in the future where John arrived. But it may still be possible.

Nice idea with Ellison becoming a new CEO of Zeira corp (ZC), but there are two reasons why this shouldn't happen:
1.) Ellison was just only a head of security, not a ZC representative, or anything like this. Maybe only if CW predicted all of this (that she will went to to future, and Ellison stays), and ordered him to be a new CEO of ZC, but thats not likely.
2.) ZC is no longer needed. CW already created JH, so there is no use for ZC anymore. Okay, Ellison and Sarah would use it's funds to accomplish their goals, but I don't think that it is likely as well. Especially because that "drone" that crashed to ZC's building would draw unwanted attention to ZC itself, and its last thing that Sarah (and now even Ellison) needs.

But still, I like that idea, and I would like to see it in a third season.

I like Richard T. Jones. He's a good actor and made his role believable. There are instances with the roles of every actor in the show that I could
find fault with, but it's more with the roles as written, than the actors themselves. I think they all did well.
As for the Bible/religious references: Many people in the world hold a religious (a vague contextual term) worldview, so it's not out of the ordinary
that someone in the show should be portrayed as such. Actually to exclude the idea would be contrary to the real world. There are many things
about the real world that offend me viscerally, but there they are. I can't wish them away.
Western history and thought is permeated with Bible terms and thought. We use words all the time without the slightest consideration of their
origin. When we speak of living things, we call them creatures, implying a creator, when many of the people using the term don't even think there
is a Creator. Perhaps you'd rather, evoluture ? We use the term 'Person' all the time and even discuss the subject of Cyborgs in this relation and never give a thought to the fact that the term evolved form the Latin word 'persona' (meaning mask used on the actors stage) influenced by the worldwide trinitarian/Christology debates of the 300's and 400's AD, into the concept of person that is assumed to be understood today.
The term 'Judgement Day', a Terminator term, finds it's origin in the book of "The Revelation", though many would say that the correlation between
the two is skewed. The term "Apocalyptic" is the Latin term for "Revelation", both meaning an unveiling of something hidden and assumed
as not existing. Yet this term is currently being used to descibe a story or movie genre. Well, that's semantics for ya' and the evolving nature of
the use of language.

He's a good actor, I like him.

Ellison needs to get back to his roots a little more though.

Otherwise, no. I like what Jones/Ellison adds to the show.
