[edit] Production

[edit] Development

On November 9, 2005, Variety reported that a television series based on the Terminator franchise was being produced by C2 Pictures, which produced Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, in association with Warner Bros. Television. The Fox Broadcasting Company also joined the project by making a commitment to the pilot with Josh Friedman, set to write the pilot and to serve as an executive producer for the series. Among the executive producers were C2 Pictures' Andy Vajna, Mario Kassar and James Middleton.[6]

The series, initially titled The Sarah Connor Chronicles, focuses on the character Sarah Connor, who is on the run with her son after the events of Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Regarding the character, Middleton said, "She has the weight of the world on her shoulders and also has to raise a teenage son who may be the salvation of humanity." Friedman commented that the series would contain fewer action sequences due to the smaller budget of television in contrast to feature films.[6]

Fox Broadcasting greenlit production on August 28, 2006, after Warner Bros. Television hired David Nutter to direct the pilot.[7] The series was among seven new TV shows picked up by Fox on May 13, 2007 for its 2007-08 television season.[8]

In a June 20, 2007 interview, Friedman said the show would avoid the "Terminator of the Week" plot device and that Sarah, John, and Cameron (an advanced Terminator model sent from the future to protect them) will have other threats than just Terminators. Skynet would also come into play as the series progresses. Furthermore, Friedman stated that the events of Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines occur in an alternate timeline from that of the TV series.[9] In addition to having planned the entire story arc for the first season, Friedman has a rough idea for the plot of the following three seasons.[10]

At the 2007 summer Television Critics Association press tour, Fox Entertainment Chairman Peter Liguori said that a certain aspect of the pilot, involving a Terminator posing as a teacher attacking John at school, was to be changed following the shooting at Virginia Tech.[11] Although the shooting remained in the series premiere, a scene showing students dealing with the aftermath as FBI Agent Ellison surveys the damage was removed.[12]

[edit] Casting

The casting process of the series took 16 weeks during which the producers auditioned actors not only from America but also from Australia, Canada, and England. Over 300 actresses auditioned for the role of Sarah Connor, the heroine of the Terminator series.[citation needed] Series creator Josh Friedman described the actress he was looking for was someone "who embodied that spirit and who was believable in that role and not just some glammed up, Hollywood, actressy thing." After a friend recommended English actress Lena Headey for the role, Friedman watched her audition tape, and thought she was "a tough, tough woman."[9] Headey was officially cast on November 7, 2006.[13]

On December 7, 2006, the actor cast in the role of 15-year-old John Connor was announced to be Thomas Dekker.[14] Dekker's management threatened to pull him from the NBC series Heroes to ensure that his character Zach would not be gay, believing that it would threaten his chances of getting the role of John.[15] Regarding the Terminator films, Dekker says, "They are like my favorite films when I was younger. So it's very ironic that I'm getting to do this. And I know for the younger generation and for myself, John was equally important to me as Sarah was, and I know a lot of the people that I hear from really, really care about John."[16]

The remaining two principal cast members of the series, Richard T. Jones and Summer Glau, were announced in January 2007[17] and February 2007[18] respectively. Jones likens his character, an FBI agent, to that of Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive. Moreover, he is allowed to improvise a few lines to provide "a little bit of comic relief" to the show.[19] Unlike Dekker, Glau had not seen the Terminator films prior to being cast as Cameron Phillips, whose role in the series was initially kept concealed but was later revealed to be a Terminator sent from the future to protect John.[20] Friedman had previously wanted to cast Glau in a pilot he wrote four years prior to The Sarah Connor Chronicles but she was already committed to Serenity.[9] Glau stated that she felt "intimidated" by the role because the character has both human and robot characteristics.[21]

The role of Cromartie, a Terminator sent back to kill John Connor, first went to Owain Yeoman, who appeared in the pilot.[22] The trade press reported on September 24, 2007, that Garret Dillahunt has joined the show in that same role.[23]

In April 2008 it was announced by FOX that Brian Austin Green would be a series regular in the show's upcoming second season.[24] Garbage lead singer Shirley Manson was announced as being cast as series regular Catherine Weaver, CEO of Cyberdyne, for the second season.[25]

[edit] Filming

The pilot episode was primarily filmed in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The principal photography started on January 24, 2007 and took approximately one month to complete.[26][22] Subsequent episodes in the series are filmed in the backlot of the Warner Brothers Studios in Burbank, California, where the set was previously used by Gilmore Girls to depict their fictional town, Stars Hollow.[27]

[edit] Plot

[edit] Back story

Main article: Terminator 2: Judgment Day

At the end of Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Sarah, John, and the Terminator successfully destroy the T-1000 and the arm and computer chip from the first Terminator. The Terminator, at its own request, is then destroyed in order to eliminate any future technology that could be used to create Skynet. Sarah and John, now wanted fugitives, must also face the reality that other enemies from the future could be after them. However, they were only able to delay "Judgment Day" from 1997 to 2011.

[edit] Summary

Prompted by the return of Terminators into their lives, Sarah and John decide to stop running, and focus on stopping the creation of Skynet. They are aided by Cameron, a Terminator who poses as a female student at John's school, and whose mission is to protect John. Meanwhile, FBI Agent James Ellison pursues Sarah and John with the belief that Sarah is deranged.[28][29]

An advance script review by TV Squad revealed that time travel would play a major role in the series premiere, including a temporal leap for the main characters from 1998 to 2006.[30] The pilot episode as broadcast begins in August and September 1999 with a jump to September 2007. Three video clips from the series premiere published on the IGN website included Cromartie, the enemy Terminator, using Sarah's voice over the phone to find John, Sarah and John fighting over their current situation, and Cromartie looking for John, Sarah, and Cameron at the Dyson residence.[31]

[edit] Release

[edit] Promotion

Fox began their advertising campaign for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles on September 27, 2007, with a brief teaser which ran during primetime programs, consisting of an image of two red dots that lasted for a few seconds on screen before disappearing. The two red dots were revealed to be the eyes of the Terminators from the show in the second phase of the advertising campaign, which began two weeks later. Fox heavily promoted the show during the World Series by releasing the first 45-second preview for the show on October 27, 2007. The final phase of the campaign commenced in November 2007 with more broadcast information being added to the advertisements. Joe Earley, Fox Executive Vice President of Marketing and Communications, described it as the "biggest campaign for a new mid-season show in years."[35] Fox also created a promo music video based on Alter Bridge's single Rise Today, which currently can be viewed on Fox's website. The song was also featured in one of the promo trailers.[36] Later, Fox heavily pushed the series with frequent spots during the Super Bowl, which led to a modest ratings bump the following week.

[edit] Broadcast information

An extended cut[10] of the pilot was publicly screened for the first time on July 28, 2007 at the 2007 Comic-Con International convention.[37] Originally scheduled to premiere on January 14, 2008, the television broadcast of the show was rescheduled to commence on January 13, 2008, after Fox reorganized their broadcast timetable due to the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike.[1] As such, Fox's original intention to air Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles in the Monday 8:00PM Eastern/7:00PM Central timeslot as a lead-in program for 24 was also changed. The show was moved to the Monday 9:00PM Eastern/8:00PM Central timeslot with Prison Break as its lead-in program.[38]

The series premiere in the United States was watched by 18.6 million viewers during its premiere time on January 13, 2008.[39]

The series will also air on TV3 in Ireland from March 7, 2008,[46]; RTP1 in Portugal, TF1 in France, and TVB Pearl in Hong Kong.[47]

Following the resolution of the WGA Strike, the Los Angeles Times printed a chart indicating the status of American network television series. The chart, reprinted by a number of other websites, categorized the series as "on the bubble", a term used to describe series in danger of cancellation.[52] The Hollywood Reporter stated that the show would likely return.[53] TV Guide then reported that "Fox has given producers the green light to start booking directors for next season's first three episodes".[54] Producer Josh Friedman has said his plans are to incorporate the unfilmed storylines from the remaining four episodes of season 1 into the start of season 2.[55] On April 20, 2008, Fox confirmed that the series would indeed receive a second season.[56][57]

[edit] Critical reception

See also: Pilot (Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles)

The pilot episode received a rating of 11.1 from Nielsen Media Research on January 13, 2008. The mainstream press reviews were generally positive. USA Today gave the premiere episode 3 and a half stars out of four, calling the series, "smart, tough and entertaining."[58] The New York Times referred to it as "one of the more humanizing adventures in science fiction to arrive in quite a while",[59] while the Los Angeles Times declared the show "has heart and feeling" and "an almost Shakespearean exploration of fate vs. character" that features "plenty of really great fight scenes, and explosions, as well as neato devices developed in the future and jury-rigged in the present."[60] In addition, film industry journal Daily Variety declared the series pilot "a slick brand extension off this profitable assembly line" that showcases "impressive and abundant action with realistic visual effects and, frankly, plenty of eye candy between Glau and Headey."[61]

Not all response has been positive, however. The Futon Critic, in a June 14, 2007 review of the pilot episode, declared that "it's actually far more ingrained into the Terminator mythology than you'd expect," but stated that "this installment feels less like a 'pilot' and more like an excuse to rearrange the deck chairs on the 'Terminator' franchise to potentially have a TV show."[29] One negative report from La Lámina Corredora reported that "the pilot feels too much like a cheap remake of T2."[62] Lena Headey's Sarah Connor has been criticized for not being as muscular as Linda Hamilton in T2.[63][64]
