BURBANK, CA (June 9, 2009) - The ultimate tale of man-vs-machine continues as a mother becomes a warrior, a son becomes a hero, and their only ally is a robot from the future when Warner Home Video releases Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - The Complete Second Season on DVD and Blu-ray™ Hi-Def September 22, 2009. Fans can own this adrenaline-pumping series in a six-disc collector’s set containing all 22 one-hour episodes and four hours of amazing extras with never-before-seen special features including an eight-part featurette with the cast and crew, a gag reel, commentaries, and deleted scenes. Additionally, the Blu-ray version includes an exclusive multi-part featurette that allows fans to explore the dynamic final stunt sequence from Season Two in a way that can only be achieved by Blu-ray.

Timed to coincide with the home video release of the summer blockbuster Terminator Salvation, the series stars Lena Headey (300), Thomas Dekker ("Heroes"), Summer Glau ("The 4400," "The Unit," "Firefly"), Brian Austin Green (Domino, "Beverly Hills, 90210"), Garret Dillahunt (No Country for Old Men, The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, "Deadwood"), Shirley Manson (of the band Garbage), Leven Rambin ("All My Children," "The Book of Daniel," "Lipstick Jungle") and Richard T. Jones (Vantage Point, "Judging Amy"), and is priced to own on DVD at $59.98 SRP and on Blu-ray for $79.98 SRP.

The time: today. The stakes: all our tomorrows. A nascent AI, assisted by droids, continues to edge toward world domination and the ruin of humankind. It accepts no limits. It fears no one. Except John Connor. The machines know John, now 16, is the future head of the resistance. They know he is growing in abilities. They must find and terminate him. But Sarah Connor is there, protecting and instructing her son as he becomes the man he’s destined to be.

The hunt is on in a season of powerful revelations, breathless pursuits and bravura effects. A mysterious 3-dot symbol (Do UFOs provide a clue?), a girlfriend for John (Is Cameron jealous?), ZeiraCorp (Can it master the renegade software called The Turk?) - Season 2’s six-disc action arsenal is locked, loaded, and ready to amaze.

From Bartleby Company and The Halcyon Company in association with Warner Bros. Television, the series is executive produced by Josh Friedman, John Wirth, James Middleton, Mario Kassar, Andrew Vajna and Joel Michaels.
