Summer Glau Central

According to TV by the Numbers.

Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles returned to Fox’s line up on Friday, February 13 and its ratings got caught under a machine press. That the show will be cancelled is a foregone conclusion now. I think it’s likely that it finishes out its run this season though.

A more interesting case is the new Joss Whedon Dollhouse. After 2 weeks, I’d put it squarely on the top of the bubble, but any more erosion and it’s going to be a permanent memory wipe.

Dollhouse averaged 4.72 million and a 2.0/6 (rating share) among 18-49 year old i in its premiere. Things weren’t as pretty for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: 3.71 million and a 1.4/5 with the 18-49 crowd. I will update with all the rest of the night’s info shortly.

The Friday time period premiere of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles opened the night with a 1.3/5 at 8p, ranking No. 3 in its hour among Adults 18-49 and Adults 18-34 and No. 1 among Men 18-49/18-34.

Time slot, 8PM & Viewers
1) Ghost Whisperer – 10.16
2) Wife Swap – 4.33
3) Howie Do It – 4.08
4.) Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles – 3.90
5.) Everybody Hates Chris – 1.36

Terminator returns tonight! Watch a trailer here.

As always be weary of things you may wish not to know, avoid this synopsis if you wish to remain spoiler-free.

An injured Sarah is guided by the image of John’s father, Kyle Reese, while Weaver’s move to protect John Henry results in deadly consequences.

Summer will play herself in an upcoming episode of CBS show The Big Bang Theory!

This has been a big week for The Big Bang Theory‘s nerd herd. First, they score their best ratings ever, and now they’re getting to rub elbows with frakkin’ Summer Glau!

The Sarah Connor Chronicles siren will play herself in the March 9 episode, the set-up of which already has me ROFWLing: A train trip to San Francisco takes a major detour when Leonard, Sheldon, Wolowitz, and Raj discover that their favorite sci-fi actress in all the land is on board. But the fanboy frenzy quickly gives way to a heated mass debate (tee-hee) when they realize one of them will have to approach her — but who?

It’s not too difficult to figure out how this cheeky cross-over came about, provided you know this little detail: The Big Bang Theory and Sarah Connor Chronicles (which returns this Friday) are both produced by Warner Bros.

Pound for pound, Summer Glau is one of the toughest stars in the action film and television world. The fact she stands a mere 5-feet-6 and weighs about as much as a Boston terrier has not stopped the Texas native from being the muscle on TV shows like Firefly and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

Who says you have to be a former bodybuilder to be a Terminator?

There is an awesome Grindhouse styled promo trailer for the Friday night pairing of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and Dollhouse on SpoilerTV. It features more of Dollhouse/Eliza Dushku but it’s insanely cool and got me super excited for the show’s return. Two more weeks and T:SCC returns to our screens!

I have added screencaptures of Summer’s appearance on CSI back from 2004. She only appears in one scene but Summer delivers a good performance as always. In fact, it’s actually one of my favorite episodes of the series in general.

I have added more photos from Summer’s early 2008 Entertainment Weekly shoot. She truly looks amazing, and it’s one of my favorite shoots of her ever! I hope one day we will have these larger and untagged but for now these will do. If you have those larger untagged images I speak of, please send them in! All credit will of course be given.

Best News
Mycah says: The announcement of Terminator‘s 22 episode line-up! And for me the soundtrack release, as It’s a beautiful soundtrack, love the scores, theme and Shirley’s song so I’m very anxious to pick it up!

Angie says: The announcement that T:SCC has been paired with Dollhouse next February! Two of my favourite actors, one after the other? This is good news people.

Worst News
Mycah says: The disappointing ratings for T:SCC now and then. The show would drop one day, and be higher the next, the rumors of Terminator being canceled were constant. Given Fox’s itchy trigger finger from previous show’s the fans were definitely worried.

Angie says: I haven’t really kept up with all the news so I guess I’ll second Mycah’s answer.
