"Is he yur 2nd fav bc he brought the show, or bc he is the 2nd best at running a show, in your opinion?"

"Yet, to my way of thinking, to even think you could take on a brand like Terminator, following in the footsteps of Jim C - and then doing so when you are not at your best bc of recent diagnosis of Big C, then not stepping down but pushing forward, is heroic, IMO.

I know I rant a lot about the guy, bu this is really how I feel.

What I rant about I feel just as strongly about...but this is the sid mos flamers don't "get" about me, that I admire the guy and still not like everything he did."

"bsg cont.
To me tscc was much better show than bsg and more consistent with T verse than bsg was with it's verse.
I think JF outdid RM and had Tscc been on cable from start and got 4 seasons, would have blown away bsg.
bsg also had many episodes that were just dark and depressing and boring, some made desert cantos look like a very good ep."

"Ok I think that if you look at tscc as a reboot or in your words "a revision of an older concept " instead of a direct continuation of T-2 , you might see things differently?
Tscc was not a "movie" continuation of the story, being Tv it had many constraints, and it was a revision.
I think now that what JF should have done is start the show at begining, with T-800 coming back after sarah, that could have been the first 2 eps, then slide to the future , and 2-3 more ep with T-2 story, then get to the part after that. That way the audience would have got the T story they knew with new cast and gradually got to the part where cameron comes back.
I think now that too many saw it as a continuation insstead of a revised version in tv format starting from a odd point, inbetween movie 2 and 3."
