"Roads Taken" my thoughts

I have mixed feelings about this episode.

On one hand, it was probably the best episode of this season. The flashes into the bubble-world were well done, and it gave the impression that they were really happy. The romance was there. The science (okay, it was a little off) was there. The action was there.
The comedy was there too, in the form of the vortex.

But then there's the Quinn/Maggie thing. I guess I've been a Wade fan all along and never really got into it until the reruns. I mean, the Quinn/Maggie thing was okay, but it made me mad when I thought I saw a Wade look-alike at the wedding. (Maybe i'm seeing things)

Anyway, the episode was pretty enjoyable. Two notes though:

1. Quinn now has two kids. (Michael, and the kid from "Love Gods")

2. Is it me, or is Jerry starting to look like Liev Schreiber?

 

 

I still want the old cast in a tv movie!

By the way

I think the story would have had more of a dramtic feel if, instead of remembering everything, Quinn and Maggie had more of a feeling of what happened.

I agree

I have mix feelings about maggie and quinn as well but I guess it's kind of hard to let go after 3 seasons with wade. it just doesn't seem fare that wade was always in love with quinn and that he never really new and the way that he just seem to accept the fact that she was captured by the kromags. Maybe they'll make a movie with the original cast that would be cool.

by the way your right. except that technically one of them doesn't exist but wouldn't it be cool if they slide back to some of the other episodes and we could see the progress of each world and see how his son is doing.

Informant, are you 12?

This coming from a person who has nothing better to do with their life than go around picking fights?

Thomas, not Michael, Mallory <more>

The name of the son was Thomas Michael Mallory, his middle name had come from Quinn`s father. By the way, to all you Wade fans, Quinn and Wade had a pretty short relationship on the show. And after the first season, Wade`s crush on Quinn was not really explored. Instead, Wade focused her energy on other thing...like making her hair a different color each week. But in any case, I don`t understand everybody`s hold up with Wade. I thought she was a pretty annoying character, to be honest.

Oh. I just remembered the Michael part.

Anyway, Wade did get annoying in season three. I guess it just feels like when she left, the show was never the same.

I have a question, if they can slide in the future, why not the past? Like before Wade got taken by the Kromaggs or the professor before he died.

Their was a statement about what's the big deal about Wade.?
I think the big deal is she was one of the original characters and the way she left, bothers true Sliders fans.
