Ok, my brother introduced me to sliders a couple years ago, right when Wade was taken to the Krommag camp, and I've never missed a single episode since that, because what can I say, it's addicting as hell.

On the other hand, I'm ashamed with myself but can't blame myself...because what's with this. Sliders will have a new episode one week and then not have another for about 3 weeks later!!!?!? this happened a lot from what I can recall, and now sometimes I forget all about it, and get so mad, but I know it comes on 3 different times in the week so I try my hardest to watch it. But here's where I'm so mad and confused:

2 weeks ago, I just remembered about the sliders, and only caught the last 15 minutes, NO QUINN, NO COLIN?!?!?! what the el' happened, I interpreted that Quinn or whatever morphed into some other form because of some drug that he was taking, and getting others to take with him? I don't know, help me out here. Also, what happenned to Colin???? didn't see him at all.....I'm so mad that I couldn't fully see this episode or the next one neither, I'm slacking so bad, but once again I don't blame myself..when they come on whenver they feel like putting the new one's on. I caught like 45 minutes of that last one, no mention of Colin or Quinn at all! I was so lost, I loved the episode by the way, but there were two huge things missing, the disappearance of quinn and colin.

again, why are the sliders sliding still without Quinn and Colin if that was supposed to be the point for them to find their parents home planet whatever, and of course maggie would stay with quinn.

sorry, but confused...so here's some more questions;

where did Diane come from, who is she?

Is mallory, Quin changed from the drugs?

and why did they pick up that dirty guy from that last episode?

Thanks everyone...

I'll reply myself, but you reply too!

In the opener of the current season, Maggie and Remmy tumble out of distorted vortex which then closes. Quinn and Collin, just behind them, never come out. A short distance away, tho, is a guy who's also picking himself up off the ground...a guy who says his name is QUINN MALLORY...a guy who apparently also just came out of a vortex (theirs?). Remmy comments that this Quinn double must be more like a brother than a twin to the Quinn they know (since he doesn't look the same). Then, he starts saying things that only THEIR Quinn would know.

They find out that at the lab where he works, there are experiments on interdimentional physics going on...experiments that have cured this Quinn of a neuro-muscular disease...by taking DNA from other Quinns in other universes. This time the experiment actually caused a full merging of the other Quinn with this guy. He IS their Quinn, and also himself at the same time. Collin? The merging of the two Quinns messed Collin up somehow, made him "unstuck", and now he's bouncing around the multiverse, sliding on his own without equipment, only staying in each world for a short while. He's lost.

One of the top people at the lab (Diana) goes with them when the timer hits zero, since she's their only hope of POSSIBLY rescuing Collin and separating the two Quinns.

There's also the backstory of the bad guy who caused this mess, but I won't go into that here.

Since the opener...
They've discovered the weapon Quinn's father used on the Kromaggs to drive them off Quinn's birthworld is a failure since it also began slowly killing off everything else. Remmy's world sure can't use it, for obvious reasons, and now Remmy is real down about it. Also, the new Quinn (who Maggie refused to call Quinn, so he's known as "Mallory") has recently said he no longer feels Quinn is a part of him. The actual words were "Quinn's gone". What that means, only time will tell.

thanks hakavon! I've been saved
