I was looking through some of the new HQ pics that Christelle just reuploaded to the galleries and I came across this one in particular that made me think back to the very last episode:

http://www.summer-glau.net/gallery/disp ... 50&pos=201

Even with a third of her face ripped off revealing what Cameron really is, John still makes the decision to jump through time to find her and save her. Now if that isn't love, I don't know what is.

What do you see in this show?

I...uuuhh...good point...expressing with words is not entirely easy, but i'll do my best...

I see something like...love...kinda in the true meaning (or not? Thinking logically...since she's a machine, she'd not have true feelings. But she's a mistery...)...i mean, even being a machine, he loves her and would do anything (in this case, jumping through time) to save her. And i'm sure she'd do the same for him...okay, in her case, it's because of her programming, but there's more than just this inside her...i guess the show is good to make you think...how far would you go to save someone (or something) you love ?

AND...is it possible a machine has feelings ? Mind-blowing question

The Transformers DO
Sonny from I-Robot DOES

Bender from Futurama does (plus he also drinks)

She's a model NO. TOK-715, gorammit.
ah-nold was what? an older design.
So yeah she's basically the absolute top-of-the freaking line
state of the art
most advanced top o the Gorammn Terminator FOOD-CHAIN
She says that she can Swim, but that's gorammn lie.
We've seen her get wet before.
She says she don't sleep
My lap top has a sleep mode.
She can... do these things,
She just doesn't WANT TO.
programmed?

were the AUTOBOTS "Programmed"?
No That's like saying Skynet became Self-aware by accident or design.
NO.

Can they feel emotions? Hell yes. That's why You don't wanna piss 'em off.
Or cheat on a female one. (like John did... idiot.)

I bet her "heart" is a glowing blue light looking thingy, right?

The Transformers call that "the spark". The heart of every sentient robot that ever lived. Those who chose the path of evil glow red, those who chose good... blue.

They even used it in I-Robot. Sonny had the spark.

And with the advent of Abyss Creations (Real Doll) and those Guys in japan who made that Android chick, I'd say giving them "the spark" is the next step.

That's what we all need. See us Human Men have alreadyu have a hard enough time trying to figure out women from our own species and don't even try that 'reprogramming" buisness on them... they see right through that and tell ya 'Ha, nice try, Not gonna happen" before ripping your arms out of their sockets... literally.

So can robots feel emotion? Yes, but don't want them to.

Well, that's a damn good question. This show is (was) not only about robot from the future.

it's about family, it's about love. Love of a mother for her son, love of a son for his mother, love of an uncle for his nephew and yes, love of a machine for its sevior.

It's about destiny, fate, it's about unwanted responsibility that you have to charge on your shoulders, it's about inner growth.

It's about humanity, what make us different from machines, it's about good human feelings like: valor, compassion, self-sacrifice, ..

It's a show that was able to reach down deep your guts and shake it.

Couldn't agree more!

I actually have a lot to say on this matter. But I can't really put it all through words ><

Well, the way I see it, TSCC is actually about one important thing: Family.

Okay, i had forgot about these ones and you reminded me...YES, she can !!

TSCC is a show that caught my attention from the first second I saw it. I admit, I thought it's going to be another low budget piece of crap, but after I watched an episode, I wanted to see more, and more, and MORE...!!! Why ? Because I always liked Terminator, I had seen T1, 2 and 3. But this time it was different, John didn't have a huge T800 guardian by his side, instead, he had a gentle and gracious TOK 715. That's when I first saw Summer... Anyway, it had action, it had character development, it had drama, it had some kind of love (platonic love I think), it had everything, including the cast (how could I forget the wonderful cast).

I am still upset about it being canceled. Yes, even after these months, I'm still not over it. I still haven't resigned myself with the thought that it's over, I can't, it can't be over, it has to continue, one way or another. This show will be remembered centuries from now for how great it was, and because it had Summer Glau in it !

Summed it up for me right there.

Staying on topic, I have to agree the show is also about hope. And faith in humanity itself. While there are many people out there that are doing bad things there are still those who will always try to do the right thing.

One of the first things I see is the unconditional love of a mother for her son; Sarah renounces her own life for John's sake, everything she does is functional to him and she's ready to avoid any kind of attachment which could take her mind off her duty to protect her son.

TSCC is plenty of aspects that deserve to be analyzed and make you think... this is one of the reasons why I loved the show so much
