The TV Addict 

When we last left Sarah Connor and Co: The season ended off with a bang [literally!] as Cameron fell victim to an apparent car bomb.

This season: Picks up immediately thereafter, as Sarah, John and Derek deal with the fairly shocking aftermath of what just happened. Turns out, robots and car bombs don’t exactly mix and Summer Glau wasn’t kidding when she told the TV Addict in a recent interview that, “Cameron is more unpredictable then ever.”

In fact, it’s Cameron’s unpredictably that leads to one helluva surprising scene in the season premiere’s opening moments. Something that will both literally and figuratively divide the Conner clan forever. Which is unfortunate, because Sarah, John, Derek and Cameron are really going to need to work together this season. Especially when they come face-to-face with new series regulars Catherine Weaver [Shirley Manson] and the always menacing Cromartie [Garrett Dillahunt].

Why you should watch: From kidnappings and carjackings to collisions and explosions, the second season premiere of TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES plays out not so much like your traditional episode of television, but rather like one seriously action-packed installment of the popular video game series GRAND THEFT AUTO. Complete with the requisite mobsters, shootouts and double-crosses, fans will revel as Sarah, John and Co. do anything and everything to survive, as they’re chased through the streets of Los Angeles by…. well, we’re not about to spoil all the fun.

Find out for yourself when TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES returns to FOX at 9PM on Monday September 8th, 2008.
