I haven’t done a lot of research or even cared about the idea of The Sarah Connor Chronicles, because honestly, it sounds pretty lame when you first hear about it. It’s another sign that Hollywood is running out of ideas, especially when they take a movie and turn it into a TV show.

But holy crap. There were two things that I found out tonight that suddenly have me somewhat in eager anticipation for this series debut.

Summer Glau and the posters for the show.

The first is that Summer Glau is in it. Only those die-hard Firefly fans will know who she is or those who saw Serenity. She’s best known as River, the girl with a stolen youth, an unfathomable intelligence and seriously awesome fighting moves. One of the best characters Joss Whedon ever created.
