This sounds like Good news for this show as it won't have to go up against Heroes next season.

"Sarah Connor" will now air Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on Fox's FALL schedule, switching places with "Prison Break," which will now move to 9. It's unclear if such a move will force "Sarah Connor" to tone down some of the violence at all since the FCC has traditionally considered the 8 p.m. hour part of "family viewing time."

Just in case you missed season one this is the time to catch up....

Sarah Connor Chronicles Reboots in August
Source: Fox
June 10, 2008

Fox has announced that it is re-airing first season episodes of "Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles" in August:

Take back the first season of TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES (T:SCC) this August on FOX. Beginning Sunday, Aug. 10 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), encore episodes of the entire first season of T:SCC will air Sunday through Wednesday from 9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT.

The Season One reboot kicks off the countdown to the Season Two premiere Monday, Sept. 8 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES reveals what happens when Sarah (Lena Headey) stops running and goes on the offensive against an ever-evolving technological enemy bent on destroying her life, and perhaps the world. Her son, 16-year-old John Connor (Thomas Dekker), is only now taking steps towards embracing his destiny as the future savior of mankind. John finds himself caught between his fearless protector, the sexy but sweet cyborg CAMERON (Summer Glau), and his uncle DEREK REESE (Brian Austin Green) who refuses to accept Cameron as an ally. Former FBI agent JAMES ELLISON (Richard T. Jones) has been transformed into a believer. Accepting Sarah's reality that "no one is ever safe," he's now bent on figuring out his role in this ever-evolving fate.

Glad to see that the series is continuing.  At least we'll have something to help take the edge off during BSG's hiatus.

Just watched the first episode of the second season.. and WOW.. what an intense episode. And it had the OMG moment at the end... this season is going to be AwESOME!!!!

It was a cool episode.  Brought up a few questions too.  The big one for me is was Cameron sort of given free will or the ability to alter her programming in the future by John?  Near the end she seems to be able to override her Termination Kill John Connor command - why and how does she do this?  And has she been overriding it from the start?  That's the way it looks to me at least.

This shows seems to be moving a tiny bit into Galactica/Cylon territory.  Giving them emotions, etc.  Should be interesting.

Well if you go back to Terminator 2 that was a major theme, so it makes some sense. Defintiely interesting.

Fox just released this new image/poster today

Rico

I like the poster, but the gun doesn't fit in my opinion.  This type of Terminator doesn't really need or usually even use a gun.  As was shown quite graphically in last night's episode.

So noted, however people that don't watch the show don't know that.

To be honest, I am not sure how I felt about the Terminator episode. It seems like the Story could get a whole lot more complex, with a lot of Terminators around now.

The scene when they had Cameron in between the trucks before they took her chip out, I am not sure about. If she was telling the truth or just tricking them, either way, it seems out of character for a Terminator.

I am excited for the new episodes, but seems like they took a big step in story, and not one I was expecting.

How did it seem out of place to you? For me it made perfect sense. Machines designed to kill by looking human and Cameron taking that to the next step by using mental manipulation. She did the same thing the very first episode then seemed to devolve a bit. This actually worked great for me.

What if she does love him and is fighting her programming not to kill him? She might have even felt some remorse at the acts she did because of her end reaction.
