    Everytime i read the word sliders i hear it in that whispered voice at the end of the opening theme.

    It was great until they lost Professor Arturo, then it was ok for a while, and then it started plummeting downhill.
    I saw Jon Rhys Davis at a convention where he said he hated the show and it's writing.

    I remember once there were three episodes in a row with universes where people had magic powers and in each one the professor was all "Thats impossible, magic isnt real" even though hes seen magic like 10 mintues ago.

    The later seasons where half the episodes were military action type episodes about cromags or whatever bored the trout out of me and as horrible as the show was, i really wish they coudlve given us some closure, maybe a movie or something to finish the series.

    I don't have Netflix so not really.

    But Sliders was a cool premise that started off well, then quickly spiraled into such an unadulterated steaming pile of trout that it actually boggles the mind.

    I'd still recommend it though.

    When I got Netflix the first thing I did was watch the entire Jem series. Life was fantastic.

    I watched Sliders as a little kid. It was good for a while, but it very quickly lost its way and became unwatchable. Kinda like Star Trek Voyager...WHOOPS-DID-I-JUST-SAY-THAT-OUT-LOUD.

    That's a lie.

    (Voyager was always unwatchable.)

    Yup. It's what happens when you abandon everything cool about your concept within the first few episodes.

    My ex sent an urgent communique via Fb that she's currently addicted to the net due to flix. This is why I choose Redbox and I told her as much before I wished her well and said goodbye... well, "good night." It was late and I was tired.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    I really wanted this thread to be about those mini hamburger appetizers.

    I have Sliders all downloaded, its a great show for its day
    You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!

    The first two seasons of Sliders are great. I rewatched them a couple years ago and they were corny but still amusing. Rembrandt is my favorite character. 'Oakland Raiders' still makes me laugh.

    The show jumped the shark with the two Arturos episode. Never really was into it after (SPOILER)Atruro died.
