Sliders
- The Complete First & Second Seasons (1995)
SLIDERS, a smart, mid-1990s sci-fi
series follows a group of acquaintances who become thrown
from one alternate dimension to another because of a
malfunctioning invention.
San
Franciscan Quinn Mallory (Jerry O'Connell) has devoted his
life to physics, and works on his own experiments when not
studying for his university courses. His latest invention
works on the concept of a wormhole, intended to transport
a person between dimensions. When he invites his professor
and a friend to witness a demonstration, everything goes
awry, and the wormhole pulls in Quinn, his friend Wade
(Sabrina Lloyd), Professor Maximillian Arturo (THE LORD OF
THE RINGS' John Rhys-Davies), and an innocent bystander,
washed-up singer Rembrandt "Crying Man" Brown (Cleavant
Derricks). As the group struggles to find a way home, they
find themselves in various incarnations of San
Francisco--still the same city, but with completely
different people and political and cultural situations.
The ensuing mix of adventure, time travel, and
"alien" encounters brings together the best
aspects of the sci-fi genre and makes for a fast-paced,
involving series.

Sliders
- The Third Season (1995)
Full
Frame; Subtitled; Digipak
A science-fiction program with a
unique and malleable conceit, SLIDERS was among the most
popular shows of its genre during the 1990s.
Quinn
Mallory (Jerry O'Connell) is a twentysomething genius who
has invented a device that allows him to travel through
dimensions. He invites his friend Wade (Sabrina
Lloyd) and Professor Maximillian Arturo (John Rhys-Davies)
to witness his first operation of the device, which goes
horribly wrong. Now, along with former soul singer
Rembrandt Brown (Cleavant Derricks), the group find
themselves hurtling through alternate dimensions, solving
problems and encountering difficulties on a series of
parallel Earths. This set collects all 25 episodes of The
Third Season, in which the first major cast changes to the
program were made, including the addition of Maggie
Beckett (Kari Wuhrer).
