T:SCC Executive Producer Josh Friedman Announces His Return

Over at the FOX Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles wiki, series creator Josh Friedman has posted a blog announcing his return to writing duties at the conclusion of the Writers' Strike.

Here's what he had to say in the first of what may be a regular blog feature at the T:SCC Wiki:

WE’RE BACK.

When the writer’s strike started fourteen weeks ago, Executive Producer John Wirth and I decided to cease performing our Executive Producer duties. I won’t speak for John but as for me, this was a painful choice. I could have continued doing the non-writing aspects of my job. But I was and am a writer first so I chose to leave.

In doing so, John and I left James Middleton, our tireless friend and consulting producer, to balance an elephant on his nose without the aid of a peanut. (By the way, consulting producer suggests he has had someone to consult with since the strike began, or that others might be consulting with him. Truth is, we have left him completely alone. James has been the ONLY producer of this show for the entire strike.)

James oversaw the editing, mixing, effects, and music of every episode after the pilot. He has done every interview, confronted every problem, placed and answered every phone call, gotten up early and stayed up late. He has done a job that was previously being handled by three of us, and as far as I’m concerned he has done it better.

If you love the show, say a special thank you to James. If you don’t love the show, it’s all my fault. John and I love the show. So we’ll say a special thank you to James:

A special thank you to James.

I have assiduously avoided promoting this show during the strike but I want all of you to know it is not for lack of interest or passion. I have been lurking on your chatrooms, bookmarking your websites, reading your reviews, and otherwise acting like a dad spying on his kid during freshman orientation week at college. Not that my dad did that (as far as I know) and not that I will do that (as far as you know).

As anyone who knows me can attest, my self-imposed silent treatment has been extremely painful; it is VERY DIFFICULT for me to keep my mouth shut.

Please be assured that I am VERY familiar with the rules of time travel as explained by Kyle Reese in the first movie. When Cromartie’s head goes through the time bubble, THERE IS FLESH ON IT. If you can’t see it, that’s because a) it’s burning off very quickly and b) certain people don’t like it when we show burning flesh, cyborg or not.

(Historical note: The first person to ask me this head/bubble question was Jared in Props--a year ago while we were shooting the pilot.)

I would also like to mention that anyone who thinks Lena Headey isn’t big enough or tough enough to play Sarah Connor has not had the unpleasant surprise of been punched by her. I have—and I can only hope that someday each and every one of her doubters can experience her qualifications in this very clear and personal way.

This week’s episode is called “Queen’s Gambit.” It was written by Natalie Chaidez, a refugee from Heroes who, despite her small stature, is definitely the writer on our staff whom I would least want to get into a fistfight with. When we began shooting this episode Natalie expressed a great dissatisfaction for the number of times in previous episodes Sarah Connor had been seen in her trademark tank top. I think we make up for it in this one.

This episode includes what may be my favorite Cameron moment to date. I won’t say what it is but it’s freaking big…

As tempting as it is to download everything I’ve been pondering the last four months, I think I’ll wrap up this first Joshblog now. On behalf of all of the writers, I’d like to thank everybody for watching the show—we know that we’re caretakers of a franchise that many of you love and we’re trying to handle it with all the passion and geekness that you would if it was you.

We’d also like to thank you for your support these last fourteen weeks—many of you came out and walked picket lines with us, or sent us emails, or just bitched online about how much you missed your shows. It meant a lot to us. The ability to broadcast on the public airways is a superpower that should only be used for the good of the people. Thanks for reminding our industry of that.

Take Back the Future.

Josh Friedman

TerminatorSite Talks To... Richard T. Jones (Agent James Ellison)

Continuing our marathon of interviews with the cast of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, we now share our interview with Richard T. Jones (Agent James Ellison) conducted by TerminatorSite's Craig Byrne.

"I believe what drives [Ellison] is a little bit of anger, and a little bit of frustration, because she was the case that got away from me," Jones says of his character. "My career has become stagnant because I lost the crazy one who talked about the robots, so now I'm almost like the X-Files guy. Nobody wants to work with me, and I'm the guy who gets the cases like 'who stole McDonald's' and that type of stuff, and I think he's just motivated by solving the case that got away."

Jones hopes that eventually his path will cross with that of Sarah Connor. "I can't wait for that to start happening," he says. "Right now I'm still on the chase. I think as I get closer to the revelation of Sarah Connor still being around, and as I get closer to the revelation of robots existing, I think eventually I'm going to have to run into her," he laughs.

Thanks go out to Richard T. Jones for speaking with us!

TerminatorSite Talks To... Thomas Dekker (John Connor)

Continuing our marathon of interviews with the cast of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, we now share our interview with Thomas Dekker (John Connor) conducted by TerminatorSite's Craig Byrne. Here's what Thomas had to say...

"The thing about John that I like, that is interesting as an actor, is that he's constantly fighting his own battle inside himself, which is that he really doesn't want this burden," Thomas says. "Who would want it? But on the other hand, he's also really... he has it in there. It's there, so there's a big part of him that wants to fight, that wants that time to be there already, and then there's another part of him that's like no, no, no, go away. So there's an interesting argument."

Thomas also spoke of his working relationship with Lena Headey, who plays his mother, Sarah Connor. "I've said this a million times in interviews, so people are going to have heard it again, but out of every honor I've had doing this show, that's been the biggest gift. Because I love her. We love each other. Working 14 hours, 16 hours a day with people, if we didn't like each other, I would have killed myself."

Keeping the secrets of the show's future to himself, Thomas did reveal that there will be some evolution to his character as the series progresses. "We said from Day One that it would be an arc. We wanted to start one place and eventually end up a totally different one. He's growing. He's changing. He's maturing. So we kind of started it in a place of fear and anxiety, and shyness, and he's sort of breaking out of that," he says.

Thanks go out to Thomas Dekker for speaking with us! Next up... look for interviews with Richard T. Jones (James Ellison) and consulting producer James Middleton!

TerminatorSite Talks To... Summer Glau (Cameron)

Just in time for the premiere of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, several members of the show's cast as well as producer James Middleton made their way to the Shrine Auditorium & Expo for the Los Angeles Comic Book & Sci Fi Convention.

TerminatorSite's Craig Byrne was able to speak with those people for interviews specially for this site. Expect them to be rolled out one by one; a recap of the T:SCC panel itself will be posted momentarily.

We're going to start off with some quotes from someone who is already quite popular among fans of science fiction - Summer Glau, who plays "Cameron" on the new series.

One thing we asked is if it is difficult to play a character that is so emotionless and robotic in certain situations, including a very tense action-packed sequence in the series' second episode.

"I am more comfortable with it over time, but it was very hard to get used to," Summer reveals. "I would say [it was] the little details you don't think about.. like crossing my legs, or moving my hair out of my face. I had to really strip myself of all of those human habits."

"It is very difficult when you're doing a scene with someone who's very emotional, she continues. "I do a lot of scenes with Lena [Headey], and she's a very passionate character. Very, very human and emotional, and I, as an actress, can't give any back to her. I just feel really guilty."

Summer Glau has very positive things to say about her fellow actors, Lena Headey and Thomas Dekker. "They make me laugh," Summer jokes, before being interrupted by Thomas signing a poster. "We work really long hours, and it's a very small cast. And if you look around at the casts of TV right now, they're all ensemble, and here we are making this really, really big action series where we're working a lot of hours, and it's just three people to really spread the workload around. So, being with people who make me laugh, and feel really close to and supported by, it's a blessing."

Thanks go out to Summer Glau for taking the time to speak with TerminatorSite. Stay tuned to read some comments from Thomas Dekker (John Connor), Richard T. Jones (James Ellison), and consulting producer James Middleton within the next 24 hours!

Thomas Dekker Talks Sarah Connor & Heroes

Before having the role of John Connor on Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Thomas Dekker was known to fans of sci-fi television as Zach, the best pal to Hayden Panettiere's Claire Bennet on Heroes.

In an exclusive interview at TVGuide.com, Thomas talks about that past role and why the role on Terminator has been so much more special for him - especially in his relationships with his co-stars, such as Summer Glau and Lena Headey.

"The three of us, including Lena, it's almost become bizarre how close we've become," Thomas says. "I've been working for 14 years and I've never bonded with people I've worked with — people I could call friends. But we are just inseparable. We go out to eat together. We drive each other home. It's a crazy thing."

Thomas also talks about his influences other takes on the John Connor character. To read the full TV Guide interview, swing over to their website!

SCC Producer Talks About The Writers' Strike

IGN.com caught up with Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles executive producer Josh Friedman earlier this week. They talked during this week's "Bring a Star Day" of picketing by the still-striking Writers' Guild writers.

Friedman revealed that, because he is on strike, he is not participating in locking the episodes, but the show will be continuing without him as the strike persists.

"I have a very good non-writing producer, who is in there doing the best that he can. But editing is writing and it's another way to make your vision known. It's very frustrating for me not to be there. I have the choice. I can be there per my contract, but to me everything comes from writing and I just can't imagine walking past writers who aren't getting paid in order to pick up my producing paycheck. That just seems immoral," he says.

"They are editing without me. They're doing effects without me. They're shooting without me. They're doing everything without me, and it's very painful," Friedman says to IGN. "This is my first show and I usually have my hands in every little thing and that's how I like it. It's a difficult decision for any showrunner, because they're very protective of their material. They want to keep the work going for their crews. Those are our second families. It's challenging, but I just made a conscious choice that I'm a writer first and always and I wouldn't have my executive producer job if I wasn't a writer. So I respectfully declined."

Friedman, like many other writers, would like the strike to end as soon as possible. "Ultimately that's all we want," he says. "Everything that we do is about trying to get people to the table, have an honest conversation, get a fair deal and go back to work and do what we do. I mean I don't want to be walking out here in the sun."

FOX Alters Schedule; Sarah Connor To Premiere One Day Early In Two-Night Event

FOX has announced today that they will premiere Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles over two nights, rather than just on January 14, 2008 as originally expected.

Now, TSCC will premiere its first hour on Sunday, January 13 at 8PM, with Part Two airing on Monday, January 14 at 9PM. Mondays at 9PM will be Sarah Connor's weekly timeslot.

The timeslot change comes in the wake of the announcement that 24 will delay its seventh season until they know they have a full season's worth of interrupted episodes available.

Executive Producer Josh Friedman's blog reveals that a pilot and eight episodes of Sarah Connor have been shot prior to the strike, but none beyond the pilot have been edited or locked as of yet. Hopefully this strike will resolve itself quickly so we can get 12 episodes as predicted this Spring.

The Sarah Connor Chronicles Premiere: January 13 & 14 on FOX!

The Sarah Connor Chronicles gets a new full title (Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles) and an official launch date of Sunday, January 13 and Monday, January 14, 2008. Here's the official press release:

Again facing relentless Terminators that will stop at nothing until John Connor, the future leader of the resistance, is eliminated, Sarah Connor stops running and starts fighting back against fate and the machines that are out for her son in the highly anticipated new series TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES premiering in January 2008 on FOX.

Unfolding where the film “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” leaves off, TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES finds SARAH (Lena Headey) and her 15-year-old son JOHN CONNOR (Thomas Dekker) alone in a dangerous world. As fugitives from the law, they are confronted by the ever-evolving technological enemy bent on destroying their lives, and perhaps the world. Balancing his inevitable fate as the possible savior of mankind and his current life as an ordinary high school student, John must learn what it takes to become the future leader of the people’s resistance. His only friend is CAMERON (Summer Glau), an enigmatic and otherworldly student at his high school who soon proves to be much more than his confidante – she assumes the role of Sarah and John’s fearless protector. Together, Sarah, John and Cameron, all extraordinary in their own right, attempt to become a “normal” family. On their trail are not only threats from the future, but an intelligent and tough FBI agent, JAMES ELLISON (Richard T. Jones), who just may become a powerful ally.

TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES represents an exciting reinvention of the “Terminator” film franchise, in which the strong and intrepid Sarah discovers that protecting her son and stopping the rise of the machines is more difficult than she had ever imagined.

Produced by C2 Pictures in association with Warner Bros. Television, TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES is executive-produced by Josh Friedman and John Wirth. James Middleton serves as consulting producer, while Toni Graphia serves as co-executive producer and Natalie Chaidez serves as a consulting producer for the series. The pilot was directed by David Nutter.
