If you’re anything like this TV Addict (ie: one devilishly handsome television fanatic), odds are fairly good that following last night’s gripping installment of TERMINATOR: THE SARAH CONNOR CHRONICLES you were left wondering a few things. Namely, is Cromartie really “dead,” what is John Connor’s “tell,” and how is it that a killer robot sent from the future can’t seem to hit the broad side of an escaping car whilst firing and Uzi and a shot gun at the same time!
Of course not being named any of the following — Mo Ryan, Tim Goodman, Michael Ausiello, Matt Webb Mitovich, Kristen Dos Santos, Korbi Gosh… well, you get the idea — your very own TV Addict couldn’t exactly get showrunner Josh Friedman on the phone following the episode. Rather, I had to brave the hordes of overly-excitable TERMINATOR fans in order to pose a few questions to Friedman, who alongside episode writer Dan Thomsen and actor Garret Dillahunt were kind enough to chat with fans and a TV Addict in disguise following last night’s episode. (Just wait until my legal name change goes through. I mean which showrunner in their right mind is going to not pick up the phone for Mo Goodman Ausiello dos Mitovich!)
(Editor’s Note: Questions asked by the TV Addict are indicated, all others asked by fans)
How did Garret Dillahunt handle learning that he’d be “killed” off?
Josh Friedman: Garret took it well when I told him he was a goner. He said: whatever’s good for the story.
The TV Addict: Have we really seen the last of Cromartie?
Garrett Dillahunt: The writers won’t let us discuss the rest of the season, but I think its safe to say you haven’t seen the last of me.
