SkyNext - Chronicle 29 - “Today Is The Day” pts. 1 and 2
Sarah Connor’s first two-parter for the series resulted in high ratings and high praise for the show, and SkyNext’s reaction was no different. So many questions were answered in these two stories but so many more doors were left open for the remaining three episodes, and further seasons down the line. We discuss them both in detail, plus your emails, questions, and more!

William Theodore Fredrickson lmao I have not laughed that hard in a good while.
It’s great to hear the podcast again guys. Good stuff as always and much appreciated. =D

God I’m becoming “that guy” with all my comments lol.
Anyway hell yes..YES let’s do it! Let’s organize a bunch of us and crash FOX watching all the episodes. I’m totally in for that plan.

A long ‘un but a good ‘un!

AWESOME ep guys. Always a pleasure to wait for it.
As for that website Lee posted- take it with a trunk of salt, a lot of things it says don’t add up and has been debunked on numerous other boards. Whilst the show (IMHO, and as much as I hate to say it) is probably going to get cancelled, that article in particular should not be taken seriously. Until Fox releases its official word I am not going to give out my hope. I am hoping for the best, expecting the worst at this point.
And frak’in a man- let’s crash that Fox site none-the-less. Give me a date and time and I’m so of the there. If for nothing else than the sheer pleasure of knowing we did it.

Just finished your podcast on “Today is the Day Pt. 1,” and just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy listening to you both. As you said, it’s a free podcast, and you both have a life outside of it. Don’t let the WTF’s of the world get you down
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:26 am
Amen to that Capt.
April 2nd, 2009 at 8:39 am
Sunshineyness, Derek, Steve..I just got a thought. Whoever all is down for it, we could all agree on a date, time, etc…flip on the camcorder, hit record, and go to fox and watch an ep.But just record ourselves going there an pushing play. Everybody upload their clip to Derek and Steve (or hell I’ll do it) for editing together as one long montage showing us all piling on the site lol. Do that on some regular basis and keep it up all summer. Yeah I know that’s over-thinking it a bit but I would totally do that. That way we can get our point to FOX AND show everybody what were doing. See if we can start a movement lol. Maybe more people would see that on like youtube and join it. What do you all think?
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:31 am
Well said Sunshineyness. It seems everywhere i turn people can’t wait to tell me “it’s cancelled!” It’s not over yet and i’ll deal with it if and when it happens. It’s a fantastic show and this is the one and only podcast i take the trouble to download. Bo, just let me know what to do and when! (But we do hope that it wont come to that.)
April 2nd, 2009 at 12:41 pm
Heh will do Lee. Heck I’ll do that just to do it lol. I hope Derek and Steve read this post cuz if they think it’s a good (while convoluted) idea, they would be able to reach a broader audience to spread that kind of word.
Yeah I listen to a few other podcasts but Skynext is the first one I check each week for new episodes.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:42 pm
Bo- Totes of the there. For serious- time, date, I’ll spread the word best I can. If for no other reason than to crash some servers.
By the way, anyone remember that weird Twilight Zone-esqe show VH1 did a years back? I only think of it because I remember an episode where a TV executive is haunted by the evil villain of a cult genre show he cruelly cancelled despite fan protest. It was done in kind of a Telltale Heart kind of way…
April 3rd, 2009 at 6:55 am
Whatever Derek and Steve come up with to show support - I’m in.
I am holding out hope that we will get Season 3. I thought Derek and Steve made a great point that with Terminator Salvation coming out and likely being a blockbuster Fox would be smart to capitalize on that.
April 3rd, 2009 at 7:48 am
Yeah you’d think lol. Would make perfect sense. Let’s hope. (and crash some servers muahahaha)
April 4th, 2009 at 11:54 am
Today is obviously not the day.
April 4th, 2009 at 2:58 pm
Since “Lighthouse” is not up yet, I’m gonna just rant HERE lol. I will not spoil anything but last night’s ep. was NUTS. I think OMG WTF would sum it up pretty well lol.
Can’t wait to hear the Lighthouse podcast guys. I hope all is well. Have a good weeeknd until then sirs =D
April 5th, 2009 at 1:19 am
Sweet! You guys mentioned my name, well, half of it anyways.
Great podcast. You guys crack me up. Great impressions of Yoda too.
April 5th, 2009 at 1:24 am
If you guys don’t follow us on Twitter, I’ll say it here: power outage during a bad tornado this past Wednesday night claimed our episode for “To The Lighthouse”.
Working feverishly to reclaim it but I can’t work miracles, contrary to popular belief. With Steve out of town I may be looking at redoing it or doubling up with “Adam Raised a Cain”, though that episode deserves a 3 hour podcast to itself. I’ll keep you updated. I promise you that both episodes will be in podcast form before “Born To Run” airs. Thanks for being the best, most understanding listeners out there guys.
April 5th, 2009 at 8:06 am
Derek “though that episode deserves a 3 hour podcast to itself” heck yeah it does hehe. (not saying that’s expected…I’m just agreeing) Thanks for the update bro.
April 5th, 2009 at 4:00 pm
Let’s go again!
April 6th, 2009 at 1:34 am
Also, to all those “reports” that T:SCC were canceled today; they are false. Sarah Connor Chronicles has not been canceled. We’re still awaiting the final word on it’s renewal status, which will probably come in May.
April 6th, 2009 at 3:25 am
Wow what an episode. I kinda wish Derek & Steve would skip “To The Lighthouse” and go straight to “Adam Raised A Cain”. What a show, why aren’t millions and millions of people watching this?
April 6th, 2009 at 8:31 am
Wow, and how about this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jnTX_zFVKM
Long live John Connor!
April 6th, 2009 at 10:47 am
Great link matt. Forgot to mention earlier; was it just me or was anyone else humming “Donald, where’s your trousers” for about an hour after the last episode? Nice touch i thought…
April 6th, 2009 at 10:49 am
Sing it with me now … http://blip.fm/~3viae
April 6th, 2009 at 1:21 pm
Haha good stuff. Both links. =)
April 6th, 2009 at 3:07 pm
Great links! Thank you Derek and Matt.
April 6th, 2009 at 11:17 pm
Matt and Derek- awesomest links that ever did awesome.
April 7th, 2009 at 8:55 am
Aside from all the whining, this was a pretty enjoyable episode.
April 7th, 2009 at 12:06 pm
Great Podcast and looking forward to the next.
Vote for TSCC!
