Sliders was good until they got rid of the O'Connell brothers. Then it was like no one cared. Also did you know one guest actor died during the filming of an episode.

I don't think it was ever 'good'. At best it was just 'OK' enough to be watch-able but even before it deteriorated into total drivel it had already began running out of what little steam it originally had.

Yeah that describes them to a t. And fuck that asshole who said only anti-social people watch sci-fi. I may watch sci-fi, but at least I'm not a sick fuck.

That Cracked article is hilarious. I think they're a little unfair about the spinoffs... (and not just because I enjoy both of those shows) because those shows are produced by other studios, and Syfy just gets first dibs.

And just because it's a spinoff doesn't mean it's automatically lame, or even necessarily a rehash. Caprica is pretty damn different, story- and style-wise, from BSG. I get the impression that the guy who wrote that article hasn't watched either show, and is judging them based on the fact that they're spinoffs.

MNW, what is the purpose of the two video links? The first one doesn't exist and the second is about animatronic animals?

The first one seems to be working for me. In any case, the point was to demonstrate that while I may watch sci-fi, I don't demonstrate weird or anti-social behavior, like the men in the first video who forgo relationships with flesh and blood females for synthetic rubber dolls. Nor am I like the people in the second vid, fawning over a bunch of animatronics because they remind of my childhood and help me to forget my miserable existence as an adult. It's all here in this brochure I prepared.
