TIMELINE

Sarah Connor, heroine of the Terminator series, will be back ... in her own Fox show next fall. But in T3, she was dead. How is this possible?

BACK TO THE FUTURE Sarah (Linda Hamilton), mother of unborn resistance leader John Connor, is hunted by a cyborg (Arnold Schwarzenegger) from a machine-ruled future. Flouting Einstein, her time-traveling bodyguard (Michael Biehn) becomes John's father.

BACK AGAIN Years later (in T2), a deadlier Terminator is sent to kill young John Connor. A reprogrammed Arnold protects John and his mother and seems to alter the future by destroying the artificial intelligence that would have decimated humanity. But ...

AND AGAIN ... years later (in T3), Sarah has died of leukemia, and Arnold protects John from a foxy Terminatrix. Plus, the AI rebounds. The Sarah Connor Chronicles (with 300's Lena Headey) is set between the events of T2 and T3. Poor Sarah! Time has not been kind.
