Jerry O'Connell played Quinn Mallory, a young college student who invents an inter-dimensional wormhole that takes him, his friend Wade,(Sabrina Lloyd) Professor Arturo(John Rhys Davies), and innocent bystander and singer Rembrandt Brown(Cleavant Derricks) on a seemingly unending journey. Their adventures traveling into different Earths were entertaining and sometimes thought-provoking, and continued this way until Arturo left the series in dramatic fashion...Then he was replaced by actress Kari Wurher, who played Maggie, and that was where the third season started going wrong, with too many episodes being rip- offs of genre films; rather than imagination, action became the norm.
Fourth season saw the departure of Wade in a cold-hearted plot thread that was never resolved properly. Jerry's brother Charlie joined the cast as his brother Colin, and I found his innocent character a breath of fresh air, and some really good episodes lie ahead, though over-reliance on invaders called Kromaggs became a problem.
Fifth and last season saw the departure of both O'Connell brothers, whose fates as written and presented were the stupidest thing possible; so bad was this season that some just ignore it as featuring an eerily similar group of sliders...such a thing wasn't without precedence! Whole series is on DVD; bring back the original cast, and "kick start" some new adventures!
