I finally got to see quite a few episodes from Season 5 last night, and it got me to thinking... Sliders episodes tend to get made all at once, and then they slowly get aired over the course of the season. That means the season, and thus series, finale would most probably not tie up any loose ends.<P>Wade: Got captured by the Kro-Maggs between Seasons 3 and 4. Numerous allusions were made to her during Season 4, and they were actually quite close to finding her a few times.<P>Quinn: Got merged with his duplicate in the Season 5 premiere. Appearantly, they're trying to find a way to get our Quinn out of "Mallory."<P>Collin: Also written out in the Season 5 premiere. He's stuck between dimensions. They're trying to figure out how to get him back.<P>Earth Prime: Originally our Earth, it deviated majorly from the world we know when it was invaded by the Kro-Maggs before the Season 4 premiere. Rembrandt still needs to find a way to save his world, and Season 4 was spent trying to find a weapon capable of doing such a thing. However, a Season 5 episode revealed that the weapon has such devestating side-effects that it is virtually useless.<BR><P>------------------<BR>Darlene: I read a lot of science fiction.<BR>Herbert: Bless you, my child.<BR>Kay: The world needs more people like you.<P>-Deep Space Nine, "Far Beyond the Stars."<P> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Krenim</b> <br /><small>Member # 22</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(1999,7,30,20,11,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">August 30, 1999</span> <span class="timeformat-0">08:11 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Hmm...

I think the worst thing Sci-Fi did though was kill Quinn off by merging him with a double that doesn't even look like Quinn Mallory. That, and most of it's first season on SF dealing with the Kromaggs. They run into them once, never see them again for a long time and all the sudden every other world is overrun by the Kromaggs?
