The Terminator franchise is one of the most iconic in all of science fiction history, despite the various weaker entries to the movie series. It has always expanded well into other media, with innumerable related games and merchandise over the years.

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles was an excellent addition to the franchise, but it was unfortunately cancelled after two seasons. It would arguably be the ideal time to bring it back now, as viewers are hungry for spinoff series in the online streaming era.

Terminator Franchise is Still Booming in Popular Culture

When Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles was cancelled after its second season, viewers were shocked. The offering from Josh Friedman had everything that sci-fi fans wanted from a spinoff. It disregarded the events of the poorly received Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines and followed on from the hugely popular Terminator 2: Judgement Day. It also had the excellent Lena Headey in the lead role, with Thomas Dekker and Summer Glau as supporting characters.

The strange thing is that the Terminator franchise is still going strong in popular culture, suggesting that there’s a huge market out there for content in the post-apocalyptic world. Indeed, there have been countless mobile games throughout the 2010s that have attracted players, with Terminator Genisys: Revolution one of the top offerings on the market.

There’s are also two Terminator games in the online slots market that have been well-loved among players for years. The Terminator Win & Spin and the Terminator 2 Online Slot are among the top branded games at Jackpot City, a free spins casino known for its great offers. Indeed, new players can claim 100 free spins when they join the site.

A New Series Could be a Great Leadup to Another Feature Film

With the Terminator franchise still booming in the mainstream, it would make a lot of sense to bring the Sarah Connor Chronicles back for today’s audiences. Streaming services are currently battling over the best IPs, with a huge focus on expanding franchises. For example, Amazon has the rights to Lord of the Rings, HBO has The Last of Us, and Netflix has The Witcher. Terminator: TSCC was produced by Warner Bros. Television, meaning there’s a chance that it could be brought back to HBO Max.

TSCC has often been regarded among the television shows most deserving of another season, as it garnered high audience ratings during its run. In fact, season two had a highly impressive 94 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Friedman has already announced that there was a third season planned before the cancellation, meaning that it could be ready to go if a production company picks it up. There has been talk of another feature film from James Cameron, so a reboot of the series could act as a promotion for that.

The Sarah Connor Chronicles would have arguably enjoyed greater viewing figures if it had been released in the streaming age. Now would be the ideal time to bring it back and use it to promote a new Terminator movie.
