You can definitely call BT crazy!

I'm going to vote for "Double Cross". World Killer and Applied Physics just did more for me.

Don't get me wrong. I liked "Double Cross" but, to me, its too "season 3". Plus, I have to avenge the Guardian.

Yeah, I know I tried to kill it, but I had my reasons...

"Double Cross"

BT didn't do it.

I choose "World Killer" to vote off over "Applied Physics" in kind of a squeaker for several reasons:

1) "World Killer" does take place in San Francisco but it just isn't the same without doubles of Quinn's mom or dad, Bennish, Pavel, or even Ross J. Kelley.

2) Since when is Quinn's house located on a large hill?

3) The whole "Boss" subplot was really lame.

4) Mallory still being connected strongly to Quinn and his mention of how much "he" misses the Professor in "Applied Physics" was great.

5) Diana's struggle to adjust to sliding and seeing her double was handled pretty well.

6) Got a kick out of the non-response Mallory gets when he asks which Quinn did the group want. Hell, after putting up with your jokes for a while they'd probably pick Logan St. Claire or Rickman over you.

And finally...

7) Just on the principle that my least favorite season is Season 4.

Right who voted off The Guardian?

Grrrrr... why isn't anyone home? They should have all got back by now and Claire already went to bed! Bloody men!

I'm going to go for World Killer. I know it's probably going to be Applied Physics that goes, but I really like that episode.

Simple enough!

Well, I'm going to help out Quinn again and vote down "Double Cross." You never know, it just might make that crucial difference...

What, no Davy Jones!

I cannot begin to understand why some people are voting for Double Cross. They need to quit griping.

I have to vote for APPLIED PHYSICS. I hate the episode, because as I recall, when it first aired, I was kicking the beans out of all my furniture, because of the DAMN HIDEOUS way they wrote the O'Connells/Mallorys off the show. I don't care if this episode had won an EMMY, I think it stinks. The only thing that keeps this one alive is spite!

In a stunning comeback the Guardian is

DEFEATED!! :-D Go female Quinn doubles!!

Vote this round: "Applied Physics"

And Grizzlor, it's in The Unstuck Man that they wrote out the O'Cs.

my vote is for "World Killer"

From: Slidemania

Just so we eventually rid the voting pool of all that was S4!

It looks like my "Applied Physics" is going to be burned to a crisp, so I will vote for "World Killer" as counting toward future rounds of voting.

At least that it a testament to the implication that, out of all the S5 episodes at least, "Applied Physics" is one of the most popular.

I know that Sabre...

I was still en fuego at that point. In the first 3 episodes of Season 5, the dummies used them to basically UNWRITE the unfinished arc from Season 4. I was unhappy with all of them. the whole Geiger, Quinn Merge was so badly done I cringe at it. However, with the following 13 episodes, only 1 (Requiem) involved past Sliders history. And of course I thought that one was aweful, too. Then there was Eye of the Storm, more PAIN! And finally The Seer, which I enjoyed somewhat, because they Finally stopped trying to play off the past HORRORS that they had written, at least somewhat.

Down to the wire...

Hey BT, get out of here, you're ruining my post!

"World Killer"

It was good folks, but it simply wasn't as good as "Applied Physics." Like mentioned by a few earlier, since when IS Quinn's house on a hill?

just like BT has been all this time.

World Killer can't possibly be the best ep in S4, but I'll get to it later.

Right now, the ep that has to go is APPLIED PHYSICS!

Minus the root of BT.


The correct answer is Aplied Physics.

BT loves to make fun of us.


Let's see here. Interesting choices that are left. I can't vote for PTSS because it's double the hunka hunka burning love though not extra crispy. I can't vote for me because that's not ethical. LOL. <smiles impishly> Ethical? Though I didn't like Grunge Quinn, there are two Quinns in that one. Oooo, Quintessential Diana vs. Smarter Quinn. Ooooo... he's so hot. There's two Quinns in that one too. Diana makes people wonder if scientists are a bunch of wacky people living in their own world. <rolls eyes> ATM machine, yeah right.

Well, I'll have to vote for Pilot, Part I because an idiot like Quinn never should have gone sliding without knowing the formula.
