Gifset version of the video I posted yesterday.

Parallels between Colin from Sliders and Castiel from Supernatural, both encountering [it] for the first time.

My headcanon is that it's the same film. I don't know if it's a direct reference, but damn that pizza man sure gets around.

Clip 1: Sliders, Season 4 Episode 8 "The Alternateville Horror" (1998)

i painted quinn mallory aah i love this show so much

Alternate universe hologram Sam Beckett sings "The Candyman Can" (From Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory) to distract Kromaggs, while an alternate Maggie in her 50s who has leaped into a slave without eyes sneaks past them.

Meanwhile we cut to 7 years in the future where he is recounting this to a room filled with original Sam Beckett, Donna, Gooshie, Tina, Al, Sammy Jo, Verbena, Quinn, Rembrandt, original Maggie, Colin (whose personal history has dramatically altered), and finally... Alia.

I promise it all makes sense if you read the whole 108,000 words. 🫴👀

Ok so I've had a really weird couple of weeks.

One night, I had a dream about a TV show I'd seen exactly one episode of in its entirety. A show that I literally haven't seen anyone talk about in forever.

That show? Sliders (1995)

I woke up from that dream with the need to watch the show, so I did.

It's a mediocre show, really. Even at its best, it's hamfisted and full of plot holes, and the first season or two loves to idolise 1990s USA in a way that comes across as painful to my modern leftist sensibilities.

But despite that, I grew attached to the characters, and then I had to watch each one of them leave the show in increasingly infuriating ways.

By the end, I just wanted to give the characters a better ending. So that's what I'm now doing.

I'm not normally one to read or write fan fiction, so this is highly unusual for me and I have no idea if anyone will even care about this since the show is pretty obscure these days.

I just spent the past 4 days writing fan scripts of an imagined season 6 set in the present day. I've already churned out 3 scripts in that time and also made a rudimentary reader from html, css, and javascript to improve accessibility.

I ended up doing this because fanfiction.net doesn't allow scripts, and my new AO3 account is in some kind of queue until next month, so that's great.

Anyway, you can see the scripts on my website... take 'em or leave 'em. I had to get them out either way lol.
