The Sarah Connor Chronicles

I must warn you, this post is totally random and is in no way important, but you may still find it interesting.  Now that the disclaimer is out of the way…

When I was a child, Arnold Schwarzenegger was the man and The Terminator was the best thing since sliced bread. That’s just how it was and maybe that’s why I’m excited about the new series, The Sarah Connor Chronicles. I love Jamie, but I just disagree with her. Why wouldn’t you want to watch the story of what happened between the two Terminator movies? I’ll be the first to admit that Terminator 3 was rubbish, but that’s different. Arnie was past his action figure sell by date. The whole thing felt forced and didn’t work. This new series though…I think it has loads of potential. 

As long as they keep it as a simple man against the machines story, I think The Sarah Connor Chronicles will rock. It will only fall apart if they try to make it clever because let’s face it, that’s not what the Terminator was about.

I got called ‘Critics’…on TV!

Last night was another first for me!

 

A minister was on a TV talk show and was discussing an issue related to my last article. I was randomly surfing the channels, getting ready to go to bed when it happened. The host says something like, ‘Critics have said….’ And he goes on to pull a quotation out of my article!

 

I wasn’t quoted or anything, but it definitely put a smile on my face. And it won’t surprise people that know me either! Been in this country less than 18 months and already being referred to as Critics on TV! Yep, that’s me alright.

 

What a great start to the week! Now, if I could only come up with something to write about for the next article!
