Sarah Connor Chronicles Leaked onto Torrent Sites
Sarah Connor Chronicles Pre-Show Info August 13th, 2007As most of the avid fans of the upcoming TV series already know, the Pilot Episode of The Sarah Connor Chronicles was leaked onto torrent and warez sites a few weeks ago. This isn’t unheard of in the television and movie industry; last year the Pilots Heroes and Jericho were leaked - this year it’s The Sarah Connor Chronicles, Pushing Daisies, Bionic Woman, Weeds, and a few others.
The real question about TV shows such as The Sarah Connor Chronicles being downloaded before it’s release is how it got leaked. Did the Companies (Fox, in this case) leak them intentionally? Is this a marketing scheme?

I finally saw it, I’m afraid I wasn’t as impressed as I was by the trailers. Guess we’ll have wait to see if it gets better as it goes along or maybe the reshoots wil help. Sort of as disapointing as Painkiller Jane had been. *pouts*

OK. I saw it. I think it was the best show I’ve seen on TV in a long time. Well written, well acted, well produced. I can’t wait until January! It would be really dumb for them to edit out the school shooting scene if they are really considering it - crucial to the episode.

Seriously doubt teh studio leaked it. Every time it has been put on YouTube, within 48 hours, the STUDIO has ordered it taken down, when barely a dozen have seen it (or known to search for it) by then!
Didn’t the new Battlestar Galactica get leaked, then it’s buzz for the pilot premiere caused huge ratings!? Word of mouth can be great publicity.
I will UNFORTUNATELY be watching this EXCELENT series, due to the pilot showing so much potenital. But UNFORTUNATELY it’s on fox which means it will go the way of DRIVE & be canned after 3 weeks (or Sliders when FOX demanded changes that RUINED it).

Yes, let’s hope that Fox, the killer of good SciFi shows (see Firefly) doesn’t stick their nose too deep in the development of this show.
