Sliders (1995)
Sliding Down
I loved this show!!! Even though I jumped in at mid-season (1st season), I fell in love with it and became an instant fan. The characters accidently entered a wormhole Quinn created and found themselves on a parallel world. Now, they "slide" to different worlds while trying to get home. With a new world every week, I found the show very exciting and things never got old, how can you not love Sliders? Well, the show began its downfall with the death of the Professor/the leaving of John Ryhs-Davies. Then...they bring in a new character, Maggie and added new twists to the show. The writing got lousy and eventually, Sabrina Lloyd, who played my favorite character Wade, left. It was easy to see why Fox decided to sell the show to the Sci-Fi channel. From the few episodes I've borrowed from friends, I can tell the show has gotten worse and worse. Now that Jerry O'Connell, who played lead character Quinn Mallory, is gone, the show is just dead, at least for me it is. With most of the original cast gone (3 out of 4) and writing that's not that great, I don't even know why this show is still around.
Roar (1997)
I Miss the Roar
Watching Heath Ledger's latest movies has given me a craving to watch the young Australian in his best role yet as Conor. I was hooked to this show before the pilot even aired (yes, the commercials were that great)!! I watched this show religiously every week and was very upset that Fox pulled it. I have always believed that the people over at Fox were a bunch of dudheads and cancelling Roar is real proof that they are!!!
