Here's my pitch for a prequel show:
3 Sarah's
An intimate portrayal of three women named sarah Connor and the lives they lead.

I don't know about the critics, but I've seen it last night, at a mini-marathon where we had Terminator 1 just before Genesys, and I liked it. I don't consider Terminator 1 as a masterpiece anyway, and some SFX did not age well (puppet arnold much ?)
If I were to pitch this drama the series finale would end at the beginning of the terminator as arnie comes a knockin'...Actually, one of the Dark Horse Comics told a side story to the original film that dealt with a recently married woman named Sarah Conner being target by a T-800 with a female exterior.
Saw it today and loved it! It wasn't as great as T1 or T2, but seriously you're setting the bar pretty freaking high expecting it to be as good as either of those. It's certainly better than T3/T4 though, then again those are pretty low bars. I like the forcing things into an alternate timeline for purposes of having more stories to tell with Skynet/Genisys. I still don't buy the bus flip scene tough. I don't think there's any chance the Terminator or the bus could generate enough torque to flip it through the air like that. Still, it's got time travelling robots in predestination paradoxes all over the place. I can excuse it for being a little over the top on the action.
One question though, I may have misunderstood it, but didn't "Pops" say that John couldn't impersonate other people at one point? And in the next scene John does?
No, Pops said that they couldn't imitate him (and presumably other Terminator units). No actual explanation is given as to why.

I'd assume it's due to the same rules of what the T1000 can imitate. T-1000 can not transform into complex machines with mechanical moving parts or chemical fuels, like guns or bombs
Actually, that makes perfect sense.
As well as it having to "sample" the subject to imitate it. Presuming he has to sample their DNA to mimic a human. T-800 has no DNA.
Pretty damn sure the T-800s have dna. It's LIVING tissue over a metal endoskeleton after all
Weird
Cameron's idea was that the T-800s had small organs which kept the "living tissue" well you know, living
