Richard T. Jones and the TV Addict in Los Angeles, January 2009
Let me first start off by saying how cool it is for you to take the time. Yourself and Thomas [Dekker] were not scheduled to drop by and I think it’s great to see how willing you all are to support the show.
Richard T. Jones: Well we love the show. I didn’t know Thomas was going to be here either. It’s good to see him.
Especially since you almost never get to see any of the Connors on screen. What happened to your plan [from when we last talked] for an Agent Ellison/Sarah Connor hook up?
I know right. We got to start something so fans start clamoring for Sarah and James to get together.
Because James and Catherine Weaver doesn’t exactly have the same ring to it, right? She’d probably try and kill you in your sleep.

The TV Addict with Richard T. Jones in Los Angeles
Who needs machines sent from the future when you’ve got actor Richard T. Jones?
Between the recent Television Critics Association Press Tour, Comic Con and the FOX Fall Press Junket, TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES star Richard T. Jones is a one man publicity machine.
Which is exactly what this TV Addict started off our interview asking about when I was given the recent opportunity to sit down with Mr. Jones at the Hollywood Renaissance Hotel in Los Angeles.
So you’re pretty much an unstoppable publicity machine. How do you do it?
I have no idea. I’m still trying to get used to. I mean on the one hand you don’t want to tell too much because you want the audience to still be surprised. But on the other hand, everybody is interested in the show. I’ve been doing this for a long time and I still can’t wrap my head around it. I’m not used to all the lights and big events. I just like going to work and doing the job.
Do you enjoy this side of the business?
It’s fine. You meet people and everybody’s great. I remember hearing Keanu Reeves once saying, “I like the fact that people dig what I do.” And I agree with that.
Now I know Josh [Josh Friedman, TERMINATOR Showrunner] doesn’t really like information getting out there…
Not even to us, believe me.
