In his basement in San Francisco, boy-genius Quinn Mallory unlocks the doorway to an infinite number of Earths. During a test run, Quinn invites co-worker Wade Welles and his teacher Professor Maximillian Arturo to see his new invention. But an increase in power and an early departure leave all three, plus a washed-up soul singer named Rembrandt "Crying Man" Brown, lost in a parallel world. Now they must "slide" from world to world, not only adapting to their changing surroundings, but also trying to get back to their world. Will they ever make it home?

User Reviews

Used to watch it occasionally good show.

Great concept that didn't stretch the format anywhere near enough until they faced cancellation, by then it was too late.

Awsome show great concept and good execution

Reminded me of Quantum Leap stylistically but was missing some X factor to make it compelling.

Rick Anthony McArthur

Was really a unique series on dimensional travel up until the last quarter of season 3, as the Kromags plot got very dull after that!

The first season is an amazing concept that never reaches its full potential. And the effects do NOT hold up.

Classic. Interesting concept that could have definitely been better.

Classic, but not great on the rewatch. Especially after season 2.

Could have been amazing if not for the slider effect. Which I noted to them because what they did.

Good cast, good premise, sadly the execution was poor enough to kill it
