Good points there Allergygalon the nurse and Winston. Makes sense. True about Sarah's fear. Though I suppose they could've / should've kicked it up a notch and take it a tad further, a few more little humanly touches on Cameron's part (sensual hand brush on the neck ala S1 anyone? or what about playful flirting and John responding positively to it?) would've been interesting. Anything goes in a dream / nightmare where one's fears are personified right? Now I'm really hoping for a season 3, Sarah could have more nightmares about Cameron and John Feel free to smack me with a pancake frying pan

Well, our very own allergygal has both written a wonderful " Idiot's Guide to Sarah's Transformation" over the last three episode story arc. And, in addition to writing this up, has officially 'won teh internetz' by getting an official nod in the Fox Terminator Blog. This is going to go straight to her head, I know it.

Great read.
Now post it at the T:SCC message boards at hulu.com. 95% of the posters don't understand what's been going on the last couple of episodes.
Oh, and I would email Charlie Jane Anders. She might put it up at io9.com.

Well that's pretty darn cool. I was kind of worried when I posted that in my LJ that it might stir up some trouble since I poke fun at Jameron fans. But mostly they seemed to be the ones that were quick to dismiss this episode as "sucked". Also I figured the Sarah fans probably already understood Sarah's journey even if they didn't quite get all of it. So far the responses have been nothing but positive, though. I guess most people are wise to my smart-assery by now. I mean no harm So maybe this will help people see just how good the writing really is for this show. I say that so much that I think it comes across as a suck-up. Nope — I'm happy to pick at what I don't like. But this show is so layered and complex and it's building every step of the way. If all the fans can appreciate that, I think they'll be more patient with character arcs and story build. It always pays off. And damn. I really really really want a third season!

Why bother recapping something you hate? I usually try not to include them. They offer up no reviews or original thought - just a play by play replay of the episode.

I know, which makes it even more infuriating when he then goes and slaps a C grade on this one (BTW, if anyone loved this ep, go and grade it, there's been a mighty battle this week between the haters and the people who loved it.) But then, it's always easier to be sarky and snarky about something as opposed to actually offering any constructive thoughts.

Thanks gothamite66 - I was out of town for a few days and thought I missed something. Sometimes TVWoP is entertaining - but only when they actually like an ep. It's just too painfull when they don't.

I am forever competing with Kristen Bell and Summer Glau Well, I think you'll have to rectify the situation, by removing the main component drawing his eye- the undies, and I'm not talking about those screencaps Cameron's only on the 2nd tier. Ya gotta go past that to the third or fourth tiers. Its a simple matter of male interest hierarchy: hawt female -> undies -> sexeh teasin' w/ undies -> no undies (teh win!) This threads bad enough with Cam in undies. Were it Cam in even less undies and strike teh sexeh pose with a arm or hand cover-up, this thread would be insane, bordering on permanent lockup and ban warnings from the overflow of wanton male hormonage
