Review of Pilot

Sliders: Pilot (1995)
Season 1, Episode 1
An exemplary explanation to how the series started.
31 January 1999
One thing I find quite amusing about the series "Sliders". One of the characters, Rembrandt Brown, started off as an optimistic, happy pop singer. He was then transported into the world of the other sliders, and then began his downfall. Throughout the many episodes of Sliders, Rembrandt's optimism has turned to eternal pessimism, and now, into the final season, he is a cold-blooded and and icy character. All hope is lost. The TV-movie is very good. It explains how the Sliders got started, although the process is somewhat sketchy. The boy genius has already invented the vortex when we enter the film. He's managed to crack the hardest physics equation ever! All in a day's work. Then, we are brought along the usual Sliders plot path. They go to a parallel world, they get in all sorts of trouble, and escape at the last minute. It's great stuff! Six out of ten.
