BLINKER: It was November 1996 when I got to try out the internet for the first time. Naturally, I immediately looked up "Sliders," and learned from such pages as Ed Hall's and Robb Potter's that upcoming episodes would include "Slide Like an Egyptian," "The Substance of Fire," and a Christmas special called "Sliders' Night." My title continues that carolling theme: "Wreck the Malls With Proof on Floppy (Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la.)"

SYNTHIA: o/` Deck the boss for being sloppy (fa-la-la-la)... oh, sorry. My title is "A Carol Christmas." Or possibly "'Til Debt Do Us Part;" I haven't decided yet. [turns to posters] How about you?

THIRD SEASON EXECUTIVE PRODUCER DAVID PECKINPAH: "Slide Slide Subliminal Slide Slide Slide Slide."

TOM SERVO [somehow being heard from the neighbouring Satellite of Love]: "Santa Claus Conquers the Mallrats!"

BLINKER [muttering]: I still want to know how a British guy could become president of an American shopping centre.

You looked up Sliders first?

I should talk. I think I went to the Simpsons with my third click way back in '94. Those were the days, when there were like six websites. And they all had that special rainbow color bar...

I like the carol theme, and I think I can also get Peckinpah on board by ripping the title off from a trailer for "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels."

Arrest Ye Merry Gentlemen!

How about "Jingle Sells"?

"It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Chri$tma$"

My favorite ironc title for Christmas Storm and Stress is "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year"

perhaps ...

'Lo. .

There are so many bad puns as episode titles already, I'm hesitant to add any more. Therefore, my suggestion is ...

"Not Quite Home for the Holidays"

since there's a bit of an edge to that title (the Sliders *aren't* home) but Wade comes as close as possible to it ... and we all know how much I like Wade.

Santa does not approve of BT.

Here's a name that will prove fitting of the episode: "How The Grinch Stole Slidemas."

HOHOHO!

That'll put marzipan in your pie plate

From: ThomasMalthus

Santa! Er, Bingo! Er, BT!

"Have a Kelly Welles-y Christmas". "The Mangerian Candidate". "Santa Claus is Commercializing the Town". "Maxim-ilian Arturo". Once again, I can't pick just one.

ThomasMalthus

SL4Homer: Hey, who put marzipan in my pie plate?! I want the pie! Wait, that was just word soup, wasn't it? Mmmmm, word soup.

You know your title sucks when...

It starts with "Beginning Text."

...it adorned the "Lois and Clark" Christmas episode a couple years earlier.

Suggested alternative: "Kris Swindle"

But seriously, I prefer JT's idea.

BT do you like Snowball 2 and 3 more than Santa's Little Helper?
