This was recorded a month ago and uploaded last week, but I completely forgot to post it. While it is not directly connected to Quantum Leap, these links will be posted in the Off-Topic forum as there is definitely some overlap in the fandom between the two IPs (both owned by NBC Universal). Here at last is the first episode of FANDOM ENTANGLEMENT: SLIDERS:
FANDOM ENTANGLEMENT: SLIDERS Episode 1x01 — Pilot
What if you found a portal to a parallel universe? What if you could slide into a thousand different worlds, where it’s the same year, and you’re the same person, but everything else is different? And what if you can’t find your way home? Same planet. Different dimension.
And therein lies the premise behind SLIDERS, the science fiction television series co-created by Tracy Tormé & Robert K. Weiss, which ran for three seasons from 1995-1997 on Fox before moving to SyFy for its final two seasons from 1998-2000, for a total of 87 episodes. Here is the first in the FANDOM ENTANGLEMENT retro review podcast series covering both parts of the self-titled Pilot Episode.
[Original airdate: 03/22/95]
While researching anti-gravity, brilliant grad student Quinn Mallory accidentally opens an inter-dimensional portal which sends him and three companions on a cosmic roller-coaster ride to parallel Earths.
The first season of the series starred Jerry O’Connell as Quinn Mallory, Sabrina Lloyd as Wade Welles, Cleavant Derricks as Rembrandt “Crying Man” Brown, and legendary actor John Rhys-Davies as Professor Maximillian Arturo. The screenplay for the pilot was written by Tracy Tormé from a story by Robert K. Weiss and Tracy Tormé, and was directed by Andy Tennant.
Joining me (Damon Sugameli) is my co-host Mike Bloxam (MikeKraken) as we dive deep into the 2-hour pilot episode that introduced the world (or worlds) to this cult classic from the late 90s. Does it still hold up after almost 30 years? Hope you enjoy our analysis and review!
Apologies for some downgrade in audio quality. I had been experiencing recording issues with Riverside for the past several months and we had to switch back to Skype as a temporary solution until we could get things sorted out (they finally seem to be fixed). I tried to edit out as much of the feedback/static as I could.
This first episode is dedicated to Sliders co-creator Tracy Tormé, who passed away on January 4, 2024. Keep on sliding, Tracy.
