Ooohh. Jerry O'Connell in Sliders. Totally forgot about that series. Probably for the better I forgot it.

It wasn't HORRIBLE. But it definitely could have been better.

Didn't it turn into some weird knockoff Stargate series? I remember the early episodes were okay (I only saw a few) and then after two season I thought it went off the rails.
Re: TV: Give Me That Remote!
There was a season two? Ok. My memory for THAT series is shot.

Speaking of terrible TV, I miss The Cape.
No, not the NBC titled project, but the FOX series.

Herman's Head, goddammit.
So, other than X-Files, was there any programming that FOX hasn't sabotaged and shut down?
Re: TV: Give Me That Remote!
Well, X Files was part David's fault. He was whipped by Tea Leoni (filming locations). Herman's Head became refined and came back as Ally McBeal, sorta.

Re: TV: Give Me That Remote!
Ok, after much thought, I have some more detailed, spoilery, Westworld comments/questions.
First...it is so obvious that the line between Guests and Hosts is going to be blurred. I don't think we can say for certain that anyone is for sure a human. We know who some of the Hosts are for certain, they've come back from the "dead". This leads me to, I'm not completely sure that the Man in Black is a Guest. Sure, Teddy wasn't able to kill him, but that could be explained with some kind of programming right? We're not to believe that these robots are walking around with live ammunition, right? So they must be equipped with some kind of laser activated squib system. Seems easy to reprogram something like that. Also, the Hosts that are functioning properly, as Teddy is, are unable to try to harm a living thing. Teddy did not swat the fly but yet he willingly shot at the Man in Black? How could he even pull the trigger if he thought it was going to do harm, unless he knew that the Man in Black was a Host too. If he were to pull the trigger and shoot at a Guest with a fake gun, it would be pointless, it wouldn't do a dam thing, so why shoot at all? Something there is weird.
Second, I want to know what Delores's father really told her, because I don't believe she told them the truth with that Shakespeare quote. If Delores is the oldest Host, and the Man in Black is also a wildcard very old Host, what implications does that have? I've seen theories that this series directly ties into the old movie, and some of them seem plausible. Unfortunately I've not seen the old movie.

Really? Cause I've got Chuck Berry, Joan Jett, and I believe sportscaster Keith Jackson.

Randy Moss is the bald old white guy that always covers horse racing, and was also doing equestrian reporting stuff at the Olympics.
