I like the show but I have some reservations about the direction in which the show is headed.
Also, the show was originally miscast. John and Cameron are supposed to be young teenagers, junior high. The demographics of the show (mostly teen but lots of older adults as well who saw the first Terminator movie) also tell you that teens should be appealed to as a core audience. So imagine my surprise to find out that Thomas Dekker is 21 and Summer Glau is almost thirty. They should have cast two actors who were thirteen years old or even younger. If the show has a long run (quite possible) then they have already aged out of playing middle school, junior high, senior high, college, and even grad school in the case of Miss Glau.
Too bad though since I, like many others, have fallen in love with the two actors who play John and Cameron Connor. I think both do a great job and so don't think I want them thrown off the show. They are both entrenched in our collective psyche. Keep them now![Maybe decades from now they will do a remake of the series and cast much younger and age appropriate]
But the screwup was with the casting director and the producers who went along with it. Word is the show was cast around Summer Glau. A producer spotted her from Firefly and Serenity and thought to himself that he wanted to do a series that would use her performance.
As a show that appeals to teens, we need to see lots more scenes at school. We aren't seeing any home schooling anyway. Sarah isn't reading to John anymore. We need to see more scenes at high school before the actors are too old to be believable.
And, for God's sake bring back Morris. That hope is the only thing that keeps me tuning in.
