I'll be back

So yesterday I was flipping channels mindlessly looking for something good on television. Now at around 6:00 in the evening, nothing too good is really on; these days you can watch the election coverage but apart from that and constant IPL highlights, there really ain't anything too good on.

It was by accident that I caught the first episode of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles on AXN. I didn't even though that it was the first episode until the story started coming together. Why they had to travel forward in time is still a mystery: It was good to see a vault from inside though and how they had put up the time travel contraption. The girl who plays the robot who's come to help John Connor is quite realistic - she does a good job in keeping her emotions in check.

I'm sorry if this appears to be a mindless blog, but I am a fan of the Terminator franchise. I didn't like the third part though where it turns out that nuclear war is inevitable though. It was kinda a bummer. I don't know why the writers insist on doomsday endings. Wouldn't it have been cooler to just prolong the tension?

Now I know I'm an adherent of non-violence; but television really makes it all seem like it's not going to affect you anyways.
