my to-do list didn't actually include this
I feel like I'm echoing
emmiere now: I only have three episodes left of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Woe!
I liked the episode with Cameron's late-night adventures at the library. The man who worked there, the one in the wheelchair, was so very sympathetic and real and they made me care about him. :( And how much did I love her interactions with him?! So inhuman, even though she's trying. Sort of.
Derek and Jesse... oh, wow. That was a painful way for the relationship to end. Deliberately ambiguous--did he actually shoot her? I don't know if we'll find out or not; either way, OOOOUUUUCH. I can't believe how much I've ended up caring about these two characters, both as individuals and as a couple, especially since they're both so morally... compromised? I'm not sure what the word is, but constant fighting changed them. Even if they both lived long lives in a holocaust-free future, they would never be 'normal' again.
Related to that, Riley's story was just tragic. I don't know if the show PTB had that plotline planned from the beginning or not, but the way it unfolded was certainly organic. Oh, doomed kid. I've been thinking about her previous experience in the future. Was she a fighter or just a human trying to survive? Did she even have any memories of life before the attacks? My guess is that her family's death in a house fire could have been real and happened on J-day.
Savannah Weaver and her mother continue to compel/repel me. I almost want to look away when Savannah sits on her "mother's" lap.
Savannah playing hide-and-seek with John Henry was so creepy and good.
I really hope my Doctor Who season four DVD's get here soon, so I'll have something after this is over. *sniffles*
