Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles has begun staffing up for season two, writes TV Guide’s Michael Ausiello. While official confirmation of the show’s renewal has yet to come from Fox and season two is by no means a sure thing, the fact that the producers are looking for directors for the first three episodes of the new season is very good news for the series.

The Sarah Connor Chronicles is one of the many new shows that were affected by the writers’ strike. Its first season was first cut short to 12 episodes and then cut some more to nine.

The show stars Lena Headey (300) as Sarah Connor, Thomas Dekker (you’ve seen him playing the cheerleader’s best friend on Heroes last year) as John Connor, Summer Glau (Firefly, The 4400) as the friendly yet ominous terminator named Cameron, Richard T. Jones (Judging Amy, Vantage Point) as FBI agent James Ellison who is pursuing the Connors, Brian Austin Green (Beverly Hills 90210) as John’s uncle Derek Reese and Dean Winters (Oz, Rescue Me) as Sarah’s old boyfriend.

The show picks up a couple of years after the events in Terminator 2, revisits some of the characters from the movie and then sets out on a course of its own. The first season, especially the pilot and the last four episodes, are definitely worth a watch so hopefully there is more good news on the way.
