Since Sliders first aired on March 22, 1995, it has gone through many changes and endured many hard ships. Let's start at the beginning.

First, the story:
Sliders began with Quinn, Wade, Arturo, and Remmy sliding to many parallel earths that all had strange alternate histories. As they slid on, the worlds became more science fiction. They met a race of villians, constantly flirted with death and danger, and still moved on. At one point, they may have lost a dear friend, only to be replaced by his double. They then discovered that this man had an incurable disease. Later, this man was killed saving Quinn, and so the Sliders gained a new team mate. They then lost another Slider, discovered that Earth Prime was infested with Kromaggs, and that Quinn was from another earth and had a brother. They found hsi brother, and he became another Slider. As they moved on, they lost Colin and Quinn was joined with his double. They gain two new Sliders and begin searching for Remmy's home. It then ends, with a cliffhanger, leaving the show open...

Second, the technical:
We have lost four actors. We have lost the creator. We have gained a new producer, and had some horrible episodes. The story lines went from great, to good, to bad, to good again.

I think that, overall, no show has gone through as many changes as Sldiers has. Yet, through all of them, it managed to keep most of its fans. I think this is the greatest show ever created. Yes, it has given us some bad times, but has had many great times. I think that Sliders has one of the best groups of fans for a television show, ever!

Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us, something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
