Terminator TV series

[xortam]

Just pull them off of usenet. I had a conflicting show I wanted to record last night so I'm just pulling last nights T off of usenet. I might stop watching the show though. We've been fairly bored with it. I'll give it another 1-2 trys.

Just before John attempted his escape from the Bunker, the thought occurred to me that the bunker could have been set up by the Resistance: they could have built their own Terminator Production Line ahead of Judgement Day. It would have been cool to see that terminator wake up and say "Hello, John Connor. How may I be of service...".

I was also wondering if the FBI agent, when visiting the Actor/Nee Terminator at his apartment might catch that the he wasn't bruised from where the blood sample was taken earlier. That would have been a neat hook... and almost certainly gotten him killed by the terminator if he had mentioned not seeing the stick point.

He needs to stay an outsider for some time. We get a good if small cop storyline in addition to the main Sci-Fi storyline. He does notice the little things like the difference in behavior and changes tactics. His fellow officers are gonna start cracking on him calling him Mulder if he is not careful.

I was watching some interview Summer Glau had given and she had been asked about would any good Terminators turn bad and she acted coy about it. She has been goofy in the past when asked about plot points of Firefly/Serenity. Why wouldn't Cameron/Glau just kill John or will there be some sort or feel good arc to the show about the resistance going on no matter who is killed in the past?

Between 100 and 161 seconds.

Who wants to bet the stranger is John Connor from the future? Iwas thinking this before the preview of the next episode.

Surely the best thing about the Terminator TV series is that it causes them to jump past when Terminator 3 was supposed to happen, thus erasing it from existence. Single most effective use of time travel ever!

They showed the Pilot Episode One last week: I was able to bag it then. I am up to speed on having all episodes recorded.

It is fun to watch. There is almost no skill involved. People are too greedy most of the time. For example it frequently enough happens that they have 1 six figure amount left with two or three cases to pick and yet they do not take the deal and then the six figure amount gets eliminated.

The only skill involved is knowing when to quit. And that's not rocket science. It's entertaining to watch once or twice while your brain recharges, but that it is afaiac.

I've seen it once. The deals offered are always bad value; a risk-neutral person would not take them because the expected value of playing on is higher. It is a game on risk-adversity. If you are 'rich' (not a millionaire or something but rather welloff), what will 30k bring you if you have a shot at 1 million? If you're broke, 30k might get you the downpayment on the house you want to buy.

It's not an easy decision. I would not take anything less than 250k because anything less I would not spend (just save/invest).

So I wonder, how do you know when to quit?

I don't think the game is the fun. For most, it is making fun of the people like the Idol auditions.
