Bad news for the fans of the surprisingly above-average fans of the Terminator TV series, The Sarah Connor Chronicles. Despite the rather good feedback from critics and fans alike, the diminishing ratings of the second season could ensure that the series will be axed.
Last year the show debuted to an excellent 11% share of the USA viewing audience, with the series averaging out at 9%, which is a reasonably good average. However, the new season (including the new arrival of a T1000 “morphing” terminator, as seen in T2) has been getting shares lower than 6%. This equates to a damaging 34% drop from Season One last year.
Over at SyFY Portal a source from broadcasting network Fox has said that “production will likely stop”, although nothing is official as of yet. This is a real shame, as the show (at least Season 1, I have yet to see Season 2) was quite watchable, and will certainly be better than next year’s piece of crap, helmed by McG, far more watchable than the latest season of Fox’s leading show, the silly and contrived Prison Break.
