you fucking subhuman esl shitskin nagger. the SHOW had an "old" feeling. sometimes I wanna go postal and randomly shoot naggers when I read stuff like this...
Has any other show had its main cast fall apart to such a degree that almost none of the OG characters are there by the end of it?
First it was Gimli, then main character man, then girl and finally it was just Pepsi Billy Dee Williams left by the end

what happened with the cast? i dont know any behind the scenes stuff
>Original cast hired to make show >after a few seasons hollywood nepotism takes over and the original showrunner or creator is replaced by someones buddy >writers have no one to guide them so they just start doing whatever they want >actors get pissy about the direction of the show and quit
It a story as old as time.
Network wanted the show to be more "pop" and "hip" and clashed with Tracy Torme the original showrunner. She was booted off her own show after season 2 disagreements and replaced with some bootlicker who just remade movies like Anaconda or The 6th Day and have some woman show cleavage at least once per episode. Rhyes Davies was already complaining and talking shit about the new direction of the show and they wanted to replace him anyway because he was "old" and they wanted "younger viewers." Also Sabrina Lloyd wanted to be in Sports Night and didn't get along with Kari Wuhrer.
So then Jerry O'Connell bring in his brother to fill out the cast for season 4, which after the clusterfuck of season 3 actually tried to bring things back to their roots of just traveling to weird worlds, although still more action oriented than seasons 1 or 2. And obviously a much inferior cast, but Kari Wuhrer is hot and Remy becomes badass PTSD black dude like he's Carl Weathers or something lol
>first two seasons: kino >everything after: shit on a stick
What the hell happened? All they had to do was make the same type of show for a few more years and it would've been a classic.
>What the hell happened?
They turned it from an interesting scifi premise into an action show.
Davies has a good take on the whole thing and its why he left.
The writers ran out of ideas and were literally just ripping shit off from movies by that point. This is the type of show where each episode has to have a unique and interesting idea.
The writers had plenty of ideas. The problem is that the producers had other plans for the show, like ripping off movies. They quite literally ripped control from the creators in Season 3 and even moved production from Vancouver to Los Angeles.
>That time an actress pisses off the writers so much they write off her character by having her captured and sent to an alien breeding camp to be a brood mother.
The writers for this show were retarded, but they certainly had their moments of brilliance.
Mr Mallory, you cant just jump nilly willy into every wormhole you see.
>accidentally slide into a hell earth where Hillary Clinton is president and women rule the world.
Wade was so annoying in that episode
Wade was far more annoying about that kind of thing than her abilities have her reason to be. But she was cute and got the ending she deserved.
Do you got the coordinates for a planet where Star Trek and Star Wars are still good?
Sabrina Lloyd, who played Wade Welles, is now 52 or 53.
Thanks for making me feel old anon. I really needed that today.
I was born in 1990 and when I saw that show on tv in 1998 it already had that "old" feel
you were 8. how do you feel old when you're 8?
you fucking subhuman esl shitskin nagger. the SHOW had an "old" feeling. sometimes I wanna go postal and randomly shoot naggers when I read stuff like this...
Still cute, and she was great in Sports Night.
women peak at that age
the high production values in the first season really stings when you watch the stargate quality later ones
This was ripped off from a proposal made by GRRM. Doors, with a Pilot and a pitch.
This series died when the professor did.
It remained entertaining until the end of season 4. But Season 5 is an abomination
Remy made the effort to make it to the end, so I did too, regardless of quality.

The Walking Dead
Its interesting how similar the behind the scenes issues were with these two shows.

>tracy torme
>She was booted off her own show
looks like she trans, must have taken it really hard
Why didn't he have a career?
I wish they would remake this show before JRD dies.
Hasn't he been trying to get it rebooted for years now?
Unfortunately the multiple universes thing never catches on with audiences. No studio is ever going to greenlight a remake or continuation.
>multiple universes thing never catches on with audiences
This is b8.
Sliders was popular.
I'm coming. But only until season 3 when your show started to suck.

Has this ever improved a show?
certainly didn't help x-files
It was the writers that were ripping off movies.
Davies says this specifically.
The new writers the producers brought it, He got along fine with Tracy Torme
One of those shows that would always air around midnight when I was a kid.
I remember on the Sci-Fi Channel, Sliders was at 12 am and then at 1am was The Crow: Stairway to Heaven
Sliders was already dead when SciFi got their hands on it.
their reruns were great though, had sliders marathons and everything. Would never have known Sliders existed without them
The first world without israelite or naggers I'm staying.
