The real Sarah Connor’s not all doom and gloom. Our lovely lead Lena recently showcased her comedic chops on Will Ferrell’s successful website, Funny or Die. Watch her try and make a special donation.

  1. Okay, I just laughed my ass of at that! Suuuper funny!

  2. Haha, I don’t have anything to add other than that was hilarious.

  3. LOL!

    You forgot to warn us that it wasn’t work safe!

    Even though I had headphones on I still attracted way too much attention from TPTB because I was laughing too loud!

  4. I saw this yesterday and it cracked me up. The dead body thing was hilarious.

  5. I’ve watched this about ten times and still laugh my ass off every time! Love Lena’s whacky sense of humor and her casually holding the shotgun - as if to provide the more than obvious hint that she’s Sarah Connor! When the donation guy asked if she had any dead bodies, I thought she’s say she could just go out and shoot one! :o

  6. P.S. Kristina, I agree with you - my friend who forwarded it to me did NOT warn me about it not being work safe - I nearly bust a gut holding in my hysterics since I was trying in vain to be quiet, holding on to my desk to stop the giggles! :D

  7. Very funny! I would love to see a comedic episode of TSCC. I also noticed Lena injured her finger. Is it another battle wound?

  8. Lol very funny! Never noticed that tattoo on her wrist.

  9. Hey, is that injured finger Lena has the one she bashed with the gun in Mr Ferguson is Ill Today??

    Lena’s got a great sense of humour. There’s a funny short film she did as a psycho room mate on afterellen.com

  10. Excellent…not only can she kick but, but she is funny (and charming and gorgeous in real life)…Lena has it all.

    I vote yes on an altered TSCC where Doomsday is funny. Please…that would get some press/buzz (and PO the hardcore fan-boys). Remember the Buffy singing episode? Do it! This show is all about alternate realities and twists….just one funny one.

  11. Haha thats pretty funny stuff

  12. Wow, Sarah has a really good British accent!
    I think it is good for her to find a little time to relax and unwind : )

  13. pnutans… Lena is British. So it’s more like she does an AMAZING american accent.

    I agree with Kirk, a single funny episode would be kind of neat. I loved that Buffy episode (in face, I have the soundtrack! haha). It might be a little hard to do on TSCC, but it would be a neat concept. To do something like the writers from Two and a Half Men did with CSI… switch writers for an episode! It would be really cool!

  14. I KNOW! Who knew that Brits could do English accents that well? I thought only American actresses like Gwyneth had that talent.

    Bloody amazing, that’s what it is. ;-)

  15. good to see lena smile and have a good time, as she is so down on the show, it would be good to have a fun episode, maybe even see cameron laugh?

  16. I’ve watched this clip at least half a dozen times, and it hasn’t lost any charm. “A grand-dad, that’s not good enough?” Between this and the Ghostella appearance, I’ve discovered a fondness for LH playing over-the-top psycho whack jobs. ;)

    P.S. Callie, oh Callie.

  17. Kirk and Callie, that’s too funny of a suggestion - an all singing, all dancing (with some shotgun blasts thrown in of course!) episode of SCC! :D Hey, if Buffy and Xena can do it, any show can! I can’t wait for more of those priceless deadpan moments of humor between Sarah and Cameron in the back nine!

  18. Yea, saw this earlier. Pure awesomeness.

  19. I saw this the other day and thought it was hilarious. I know Lena can do funny because I’ve seen some of her other work but this was just hilarious. SNL should totally ask her to host an episode.

  20. Well, not a singing/dancing episode, that would be waaay off. Maybe something along the lines of John getting hurt from a Terminator, hits his head and falls unconscious. And it would be in his mind where we’d get a very different world. Cameron acting human, Sarah and Derek joking around with each other and her, no threat of JD.
    With scenes in the real world of course, so we’d get to see both.

    Sorry producers/writers, couldn’t resist!

    I’d love to watch Lena host SNL!

  21. Callie: I guess my joke wasn’t obvious. I know Lena is British. I was joking that Lena in the clip was still in character as Sarah and speaking with a British accent. Oh well :P

  22. “Do you accept, um, dead people?”
    “Do you have a dead person?”
    “I might depending on what your reaction would be if I had dead people.”
    “I’d say I’d call the police.”
    “Then no I don’t have any dead people.”
    “You clearly have a dead person.”

    HAHA seriously.. I’ve seen that so many times and that has got to be the funniest thing I’ve heard in a very long time.

  23. So do they accept young people?

  24. What, Will Wood, a grand-dad’s not good enough for you?

  25. Callie - love your idea for an off the wall SCC episode! Farscape has done an ep like that were the characters act very much unlike themselves in a hilarious ep (Won’t Get Fooled Again) that was very well done - if it’s done right, it can be really funny and still fit within the cannon.

    Lena hosting SNL! Now that would be a dream come true for this Lena fan! :D

  26. Lovely(native)accent, just lovely…

  27. she is such a fox, excellent of the camera to slowly add more an more clevage…

    Funny spot with Lena and the guy from the Sonic commercials.

  28. that was funny

  29. I have dial-up, so it took a bit more than an hour to see the vid in it’s entirety w/ no lapse! As much as I really hated the wait, it was certainly worth it:) Lena has, since day one, been my favorite character on TSCC. Seen her on movies, tv and other media stuff, so I know she’s multitalented. And there have been several scenes on TSCC where she has shown her comedic side.
    Anyway I just loved it it was hilarious…the granddad thing tricking him on a balloon ride, then the dead body thing. But I thought the underhanded thing she did with the six sacks of grain was just hysterical.

    I’ve got to get high speed!!! So much I’m missing on.

    Love her British accent.

  30. Love that accent and that low cut shirt…yum!!!

  31. Ah Lena. She cracks me up all the time - especially on the commentary of episode 3 - The Turk from season 1. heh. Gods… she’s so awesome and hilarious too. hehe.

  32. Oh and if I may add: the top looks….beautiful on her.
