the problem with a 2nd season is that the TV version is clearly going down an entirely different path from the movie version. its not a matter or which is better. the issue is the two are totally different. next summer, T4 is slated to hit theatres, and T4 is a big budget expensive-to-make product. the TV version is confusing the movie storyline, and draining audiences which otherwise could be counted on to go see T4. why? because hordes of potential viewers will say "yeah, saw it on TV, didnt like it" and thats the end. the novelty factor of "oh wow, another Terminator, gotta go see it, will have evaporated away". secondly, if there is a 2nd season, there might have to be a 3rd. why? because T4 is coming out in between a hypothetical 2nd & 3rd season, and its extremely bad marketing to cancel the show yet say to audiences "hey we cancelled the show after a 2nd season last week, but hey, do go see the movie". so whereas the show can barely sustain an audience for 1 season, bringing the show back for a 2nd might box the tv network into having to commit to 3 seasons, even though the viewership doesnt justify it. the only audience out there are the rabid sci-fi fanatics, not even the Terminator fans.
