Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

T3 was one of the worst movies I've ever seen.
I've never seen it, and I'm guessing that's a good thing.
I was wondering how they were going to keep up such a small time differential between viewer time and show time, and why they'd want to. I was just relieved.
Ha! Me, too.
Yay for good ratings! I hope viewers were intrigued enough to tune back in tonight. I certainly am. I thought Summer was fab, and I like the character and look forward to finding out more about why she's so "different." I would OMG love any of the cameos mentioned above, except for, oddly, Linda Hamilton. I think that would be too weird for me since she's so iconically Sarah Connor. Man, I need to re-rent those DVDs.
Also, point of trivial interest, I have a friend who just got married and now her name is... Sarah Connor. I just... I'm a little jealous, I have to fess up.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
A lot of the media reviews for the show (some of them spoilery!) say tonight's episode is much better than the one last night. Since I already liked the first hour a lot, this has me pretty psyched.
I never bothered watching T3. What the hell happened in that film again?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

"Shiny happy end of T2? PTUI."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Luckily, my friend just explained it an LJ comment!
I can't remember much of T3, 'cause it sucked. But Skynet got built anyway (I don't remember how), and Sarah Connor died before the movie. John meets his future wife (Claire Danes). A lot of lame things happen. Then, at the end, they're in a military installation and the nuclear war starts.
I didn't think it was that bad, myself.

Thrive to spite them
If I remember correctly Skynet gained sentience took over the internet and was every where so there was no way to stop Skynet. John Connor is saved because the Terminator comes from the future and makes sure he and Claire Danes get into the bunker. So he can send his Dad from the future to save his past self (and I guess to send the TErminator back again).

Sarah Connor died before the movie.
Hahaha. So this time-travel to 2007 is a giant "screw you" to the whole T3 storyline then. AWESOME. I imagine the episode tonight would address this whole possible death issue.

Yeah, I think the hand-waviness is "the future is not set in stone" or somesuch, so that "Sarah Connor died" timeline was one possible future and it ended up that something else happened.
Um. Maybe.

Well, in the movie, she died of leukemia, and people have noted that she just shot a radioactive weapon.
