I am just wondering how some of you discovered Sliders. Here's my little story When I was like 8 or 9 or who knows what 
I saw my brother watching a T.V show with my cousin. I remember seeing
Luck of the Draw and I think the end of The Last Days. Then I saw Love
Gods and later Dream Masters. Then it got worse.. my brother lost interest
and I stopped watching. Fast forward to the beginning of the summer. I
was talking on the phone with my friend when he said I can't watch right
now... it's nine o clock SLIDERS time... I turned on my T.V to Sci Fi
and luckily I saw the great ep. Lipshitz Live! (if I saw another s4 I
wouldn't start watching it). I started watching then and saw Unstuck Man--
I was really pissed but I continued to watch.. I went on the Bboard to
see what other people thought and then after a few eps. decided that Diana
and Mallory didn't stink like I thought but were good..... then I started
posting asking irrevent questions like this one

Well, I would have to say out of luck. I was channel surfing when I saw the very last part of Genesis. Well I could never find Sliders again until we changed companies. Well I saw an episode and I made sure to note the time. Mondays at 7. Well one day I turned it on and I was surprised to see Quinn with long hair. And I didn't have any clue to who Wade or the Professor was. Well quickly I learned the quality of the first few seasons and I was hooked. Echos

Being a Sci-Fi fan that I am, this was the perfect thing. A handsome leading character helps too.

That explains why you get so pissed when EPT vilifies the O'Connells. Well, I could say a thing or two about Jerry, Wil, and Corey playing Blow Job Roulette too, but that ain't my style. To make a long story short, I was bored because there was nothing on
TV. I happened to turn to FOX (I always trusted that channel for quality
programming... I am dead serious. I'd continue to watch faithfully, up until it got cancelled in Season 3. I missed it, but I caught it at the end of Season 4 a year later. S [This message has been edited by s_the_great (edited September 08, 1999).]

Wow! A bunch of newbies!
I was lucky to be there right from the start. I read a TV Guide article
about the show, and said to myself, "This is so cool. I have to watch."
Sadly I didn't tape the premiere, though I got a dubbed copy several years
later. Anyway, I've been a faithful follower since that great first episode.
It had me hooked right from the start! Of course, to be honest, I haven't
watched it much lately, what with the new cast, and Wade floating in a
vat with curcuits coming out of her head and all. :-/
If you'd like to read that article, I have it at my website: Enjoy remembering a time when the future for Sliders was much brighter. A friend and Sliders fan, Wrong Arturo
