Does anybody know what Josh Friedman had planned for season 3 if the show wasn't cancelled?

I remember Josh Friedman has once said something about it in some interview, but I can't find it back online. So if someone knows more about it, then please post it.

However, I found this which is also interested that they wanted to bring back Danny Dyson into the story.

Sarah Connor Chronicles Season 3 Would Have Featured A Surprising Comeback

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles producer (and io9 guest-blogger) Josh Friedman has been tight-lipped about what would have happened in the show's third season. But star Thomas Dekker has spilled some info, and it sounds pretty amazing. Hypothetical spoilers below...

So if you're as obsessed with the Sarah Connor Chronicles as I am, you'll remember the season ended with John Connor having jumped forward in time to a future where nobody knows him. He left his mom, Sarah Connor, behind in the past. But Dekker hints that John might have met a future version of Sarah, who miraculously survived past Judgment Day. At least, Dekker says there are two possibilities: that Sarah's dead in the future, or that there's an older Sarah running around. And Dekker says Friedman told him it was "the more interesting of the two to me." (It's just barely possible that Dekker finds the idea that Sarah's dead in the future more interesting. But it seems a bit unlikely.)

Also, Dekker says John would have been torn between Alison, the flesh-and-blood person whose body the Terminator called Cameron was based on, and the actual robot Cameron, whose chip was taken to the future by the A.I. called John Henry. (Here's where it gets a bit complicated. John Henry has Cameron's chip, not her body, right? But is the Cameron "software" still running on that chip?) It would have been fascinating to see that play out.

But neither of those things is the most intriguing bombshell: Dekker also says a major character in season three would have been Danny Dyson, the son of the man who helped create Skynet in the first place. That would have been interesting because "it harkened back directly to the second film," says Dekker.

Oh, and Dekker says that if T:SCC were to continue, it would be as a direct-to-DVD movie, similar to the Stargate SG-1 films. But don't hold your breath:

Obviously it's difficult because the show is based on a movie and they just had one come out, so it's kind of hard to make a movie with our show because everyone has kind of forgotten about us. But they're hoping, at least when I spoke to [Producer] James Middleton that's where they are with it.

It sounds pretty cool, although I wouldnt want sarah to live untill 2027... that's a bit long for her.
I really hope there's going to be some conclusion to the story... in any form.
I enjoyed SCC even though it was highly flawed. (and if I ignore the crying...)
I hope there's going to be a direct to dvd movie. But not holding any hope

I'm still looking for that Josh Friedman quote in which he revealed some of his plans for season 3, but I can't find it.

I'm not sure he ever did... he's been pretty tight lipped about it. I seem to remember a quote where he said he actually wouldn't come out and tell what he had planned for season 3. That it was now up to the viewers imagination.

Unless you remember a specific article in which he does actually reveal some plot points for season 3...I don't think there is one.

I remember reading somewhat about it, I think it was over at the SCC wiki. But I can't find it back.

Watch this video!

Well, can't keep everything under wraps for a cancelled show. It was only a matter of time before somebody blabbed about what season 3 held.

I guess it's not gonna happen right?

They made T3, which was a disappointment. They made T4, which was in my opinion an even bigger disappointment. Especially because I expected so much from it. So I think it's a shame that the SCC, that did felt like something good, had to be canceled. If the series would have continued however, I would have preferred Connor, Weaver and Henry to travel back into the past.

Omg those posts below that article are too funny. On August 31st, 2009 Smeagol92055 says...



I think Guns and Roses would've blared in the background, haha!



Yeah but that's because we would've wanted James Cameron's "future" untouched, right? So they go back and act as if nothing the did matter? The show, as well as T2, was kinda, showing you that the future was not set, and that everything you did could create "waves' and influence the furutre to come. Maybe not enough to stop Judgement Day, but rather, mini paradoxes.

The love triangle between Savannah Weaver, Cameron, and Allison would've been interesting. I wonder who would've played Savannah! I love redheads! And aparently so does John....i.e. Kate. Interesting that they don't mention Riley. Blondes are just for fun, lol, j/k!

Perhaps, but I also want Cameron back. And they left it's body back in the past. They need to get back to put the chip back in. I don't want to see a new blanc Cameron (Like the new model 101 in T3). I want the one that has all the memories. I don't care about Allison. But perhaps they can find a new body and put the chip back in.. I don't know. As long as Cameron returns.
