"Josh gave this comment on the live chat today. It was funny at the time, but what it really does is give us some incite into the person that heads this series' production.

First, his show is on the brink, and he's not really adressing WHY he has not tapped into this huge, big budget blockbuster of the same name, and ride the coattails to prosperity. Not doing this is a major tactical error.

So he hasn't spoken to McG, and he also said he hasn't really spoken to James Cameron either. That's the glorious past and the glorious future all in neat bundle that he refuses to connect with. He also writes and produces episodes that have little continuity with the known Terminator Universe - and cares little other than using Terminator as a platform to present his ideas. he might as well be writing for "The Outer Limits" which would need no "backstory" - and certainly not one as well known as Terminator.

I also noticed that he has a quick wit, but it is used to silence the questioner more than enlighten. Cameron did that to both Sarah and John in the series - she really didn't answer the question, but her remark diverted attention from needing/getting an answer. Call it bing slick at getting off the hook.

He gave us mostly fluff, and a few tidbits that many posters here (shippers, unite!) tha will read far too much into what he *hinted* at, without giving anything away. Like he did with Riley saying she was a normal girl, or the major character that was going to be killed turns out to be Cromartie.

I think he's going to get away from the know Terminator dynamics specifically so he can do his own thing with the stories, so TSCC may become a misnomer. Sarah may have her own sideline story arc like Ellison and Jesse now.

I dig the series, but it violates many known laws of the T-verse Best to view as an alt verse timeline bc of Josh's ego."

"We agree on something Chris.

I kinda get the feeling that he wished shippers would just go away to tell you the truth.... He reads the "fandom-verse", but he's gonna do what he wants. A stop sign can't make you stop after all.

"

"The T4 writers did visit the show's writers room, so they might incorporate ideas into the movie, but the show definitely won't take anything from the movie. Which is understandable, if Josh was faithful to the movie, then the endgame for the show would already be written. Whatever people say, knowing the ending to a story tends to decrease the suspense.

Hey Chris I'm curious, when you say laws of the T-Verse, are you just referring to the character dynamic between Sarah and John or is there other things that are bothering you?"

"i don't get where all the animosity for Josh is coming from.

it was stated when the show was CREATED that it would be totally seperate from the Terminator timeline going on in the movies beyond T2. not staying in line with the movies does NOT mean he's disobeying laws of the T-verse, please. I'm very glad that he's choosing to do things differently because god -forbid he treated a 42 minute weekly television show like a 2 hour long action movie.

i fail to see this "animosity" to the shippers that everyone's so enraged about. I think it's more frustration on his part that possibly this is what everyone's focusing on instead of everything else that's going on, and that shipping is going to work out eventually but because of his "stretch stuff along" way of doing the show, he can't really tell us much without spoiling us too badly. Less news must be better news in that instance.

I don't think his "spurning" of McG and JCam has anything to do with a large ego. i think he's wellware that his platform and theirs is VERY different, and is probably in a place where any advice they give him he'd take with a grain of salt in a "you guys do the movies, come back when you experiencethe chaos of doing a tv show" sort of attitude.

continuity is impossible in a show with time-travel. I agree with Josh there. XD give the guy a break. he's done very well considering!

for now you might be tired of being teased, but when it's all over, you're going to wish you'd been teased a little bit longer."
