Teminator - TV Addict thoughts

[strangevisitor7]

Just finished watching episode two of The Sarah Conner Chronicles and while I'm still deciding if I like the show there was one thing that I just found it so humorous.

The Conner's new identities are from Lawrence, Kansas. Bad Choice. Don't they know about all the strange and bad things that happen to people from Kansas. Really don't they already have enough problems.

As much as I'd like to belive it is a WInchester shout out & that was my first thought. i believe it is more likely a reference to the 1983 TV movie "The Day After" Quick Summary: A nuclear bomb was dropped on Lawrence, Kansas and the movie dealt with the holocaust that followed. Definitely a parallel to the SCC.

I wonder if that is why Kripke picked that city as well as a home town for our boys.

It's very possible, even though I'm never seen the movie - did it premiere on Sam's birthday or the day their mom died? *snicker* You know, since Sam was born in 83 and all...

Good point. I just checked IMbD & the Movie was released Nov 20th. Looks like the Winchesters got out just in time :D

Poor Lawrence, Kansas - what did it ever do to deserve this treatment? LOL.
