Once Kari Wuhrer was brought in, that was the beginning of the end. She helped kill the show and led to Sabrina Lloyd jumping ship.
Totally agree. The episodes with the original cast were the best. Great idea and storylines
@@s.patrick6136 The writing started getting bad in season 3 when they started doing movie of the week episodes even with the original cast, the show started to get really bad.
The movie ripoff of the week then Turing Quinn from an accidental wanderer into "The Chosen One" really did it. The final season felt like it tried to turn this around, to varying levels of success, but that finale...ugh.
I Own all three seasons of sliders
'but there are five seas-'
shhhh sh shhh! I own all THREE seasons of SLIDERS....
One of the complaints in later seasons of the series is that the writers would just look for whatever was popular and movies at our culture and do an episode about it. Jurassic Park comes out we got a Dinosaur episode. Mad Max is popular we get a road warrior episode. Etc.
The most egregious example of that imo was when they ripped off Tremors.
@@jasontoddman7265 The tremors episode was actually somewhat decent. It was a rip off of an Xfiles episode. The majority of Season 3 episodes were terrible though.
@@Romans8-9 Never said it was bad; just that it was a rip-off. To me not all rip-offs are bad. I like the Orville for instance. Didn't know that about X-Files though as I never watched that show.
Definitely with you on your opinion of season 3. The show got steadily worse all the time, sad to say; especially when John Rhys Davies left the cast. I never even watched the final season past the first episode; it was just too far gone after Jerry O'Connell left the show too. I'd have thought being picked up by the Syfy Channel would improve it; instead it just turned into pure garbage.
And the way they completely did a 360 on the Wade character. They changed her into a weak and whiney character, only to benefit the Maggie character. It became so sad to watch and 100% cringey.
This is a very detailed explanation as to why I only enjoy the the first two seasons. Always wanted to hear the back story about sliders and as usual, you created a fine presentation here.
I only acknowledge the first three seasons, mostly anything before the Professor goes.The two SciFi Channel seasons were about dopplegangers as far as I'm concerned.
I support a reboot if we can get the originals home finally.
One of my favorite shows.
Loves me some Sliders. Been trying to get back to my own time-line for years.
the time line where your gate made a creaking noise?
@@heedmywarning2792 that's it. Gotta check the gate to be sure. Good one 👍
We have been in the darkest timeline since November 2020, that's for sure.
@@BigGator5 Amen.
Try white castle they have a 10 pack of sliders mmmmm tasty
Love this channel. Thanks.
Creative TV, has had effect on so many properties since.
Last year I've written the Virtual Season 6 of Sliders - 13 episodes with the big finale :) You can read these episodes on my website - the link is on my profile :)
Filmed in Vancouver, and Quinn worked at a long ago now closed computer store , Cambie and 10th ? My favourite episode a brief slide to a world where a giant Tsunami is heading towards them.
Thats the end of "Summer of Love". Good episode!
Never understood why Jerry O'Connell never had a bigger career
He's married to Rebecca Romijn. He's way ahead of all.of us.
@@alancarnell2747 - She's a beautiful woman, but that has nothing to do with why he didn't have a bigger career. Are you trying to say he became more of a stay at home dad?
He's too likeable. I know that sounds weird but, he doesnt seem like he could be corrupted by the industry especially if he's come this far on his own terms.
I was waiting for this one
First season was great then went downhill from there
Season 1&2 dvd arrived in the post this morning. loved this show when it first aired. what I'm hearing from this is I shouldn't track down the later series dvd's.
If you check with Vintage Record/videos shops you can probably find good used dvd copies Sliders Seasons 3-5
What IS/was Sliders main premise? What was the show's endgoal?
getting home
@@PeterParker-ff7ub Definitely not.
He had a main wooden gate at his homes entrance. Everytime you would open it the door hinges would creak a certain way. Every world sounded different so he was looking for his homes creak sound. Then he could go inside and go to bed after all that sliding.
@@blazed85 What was a stomping thing to do, as it led him never return home, as the gate just got fixed in Season 2 or whatever.
I guess he never intended to go home actualy, else he'd invented calculations one way or another to ensure he did.
"I am the monarch of the sea,
The ruler of the Queen's Navee,..."
Gosh it is Steven universe finale
Third post is the charm?
It was a great show -- for the first two seasons. After that it was crap!
Agreed! And also, Jerry O'Connell felt that without Lloyd, Rhys-Davies, and Tormé, that much of the show's original premise was gone, and opted to leave.
Deja Vu 🤪
Three is a magic number.
Probably copyright issues.
for me it died when the professor died.. i still watched it but it really died when Wade was taken off the show!! I stopped watching it when they recast Quinn
Loved Sliders, but I don't think it was as good after John Rys-Davies left the show
I agree with actor played Professor Arturo, the writers got sloppy. And began stealing concepts from other films and TV series. I hated the Kromags which are obviously ripoff of NAZI of WW II. Sliders had great potential that was wasted.
Why was this video done again?
Quantum Leap
Superior series.
Dude, I'm sorry. Didn't mean for you to redo the whole video.
It's all good
@@JonnyBaak yes your videos are
I knew this had to be a re-upload but I still haven't found out why that was necessary.
@@jasontoddman7265 Attention to detail on the name Tracy Tormé is all I know
It just dr who and avatar last airbender she gains and stargate sg1
Great concept for a series that could have been fantastic...too bad. I only watched a few season one episodes.
Trust me, you didn't miss much after Season 2. Series got progressively ridiculous during Season 3.
Timer is just tardis
The show was dead to me when Arturo left.
Imo you didn't miss a whole lot. The rest of that season was garbage. The subsequent seasons were she-it.
I have too agree as character was only true Sciencist of Group. As Quinn's mentor it made totally good sense have top brain like his part of team.
I loved this show. But season 5 was just unwatchable for me. Lost/wasted potential.
One of my favorite shows, but the writers tampered with it too much and it went down the tubes rather quickly.
Loved the series, but I personally think it died when they introduced the Kromags/Nazis.
If they ever do a series reboot, PLEASE do NOT have a 'regular villian'.
Asside from lazy writing, it usually soon spells the doom of any series.
The Kromags were interesting when they were first brought in but like the Borg, they got nerfed as time went on.
Sure wish I can go to an alternate Earth where the current administration never was 😔🙏🇺🇸
You might want to "correct" the video again. You say that the Kromaggs were aliens, but they weren't aliens as in they were not from a different planet. They were from Earth, an alternate Earth. On the alternate Earth that they are from, a different human species evolved to be the predominant hominid species on Earth.
Well… technically and literally he is still correct to call them “aliens” as in they are alien to our time/dimension/world/perception. Aliens doesn’t mean “from outer space”.
Space NAZI more correctly.
Reupload
Kari and the brother High as F episode 👍
Without Sliders there wouldn't be Rick And Morty lol
Yeah try to unthink that ha ha
I tried more times than I can count to like this show, but after all was said and done, I will have to list it as one of the worst sci fi shows there was.
Season 1 is decent. It was good but never a great show.
I loved Sliders, until John Rhys Davies and then Jerry O'Connel left. Fake Idiot Quinn was a distinct sign the show was dead in the water.
oh man, the first couple seasons are so great. i loved the episodic nature of it and the cast dynamic was great. it starts to go off the rails in later seasons, but still great fun.
I quit watching the show after Sabrina Lloyd left.
You held on a lot longer than many other folks did, then. I only gave up with the O'Connell brothers leaving. I might as well have rage quit when they killed off Arturo.
Ya I kept going after they killed off the Professor but ya after Sabrina left as Wade I was like okay this ain’t even remotely the same anymore and kinda haven’t finished the series now.
Loved this show.
I loved the show. Too bad it went on to throw away it's potential.
Spiders
Oh, Yeah those giant Spiders were pretty creepy.
Love this show since I was a kid in 93. For anyone unfamiliar with it season 1&2 are best and at least season 5 attempted to return to the alternate history premise. Also I always loved Wade more than Maggie. Funny how the most recent Doctor Strange product Multiverse of Madness ripped off a gag from Sliders season 1 ep 1.
I didn’t know Garry chalk and Richard Ian cox were in this show
I have a crush on Kari wurher and did not she was stargate Atlantis also dawn oliveri
Great video. But could you please slow down the picture transitions when talking about the actors? You went a little too fast when talking about the characters being added or removed from the cast. Their pictures didn't stay on screen long enough.
Kromags remind me of daleks
I miss the days when the lead didn’t have to be on steroids.
Is this a re upload? I could have sworn I have seen someone do this before or copy this video
That was in the other universe.
Ah, glad to see you fixed the pronunciation of Tracy Tormé. Kudos for aspiring for accuracy.
Is the mentioned Doorways pilot available anywhere to watch?
I believe its on RUclips.
@@maximusprime3459 Indeed, not sure how I managed to overlook that one, but here it is: ruclips.net/video/6Sibw6rkDTw/видео.html
