Sliders

[poak]

I've got a Netflix on demand box, and I've been watching some of "Sliders" 1st season today. Anybody else ever watch this show?

[TripleDigitRide]

Oh, I thought you were talking about White Castle.

Oh, I thought you were talking about White Castle.

no sh... err kidding. Got me all excited!

Thought this would be a White Castle vs. Krystal thread .vs. Billy Mayes Big City Sliders.

What the heck is the Sliders poak talks about?

[Guest RISC777]

I watched it some way back when it was on regular TV.

I remember watching the 1st season and thougth is was pretty good. Kinda slacked off after that cause 2nd season wasn't so.

If you wanta get started, Krystals are far superior (and TN based). They have Mustard!

Plus it's hard to build pyramids out of White Castle boxes.

But the Castle does have some good Rings!

It was a sci-fi show from about the mid 90s (I think)...

The star of the show was a physics student that accidentally discovered a way to travel through time via string theory (or some other physics blah blah)

Anywho, they end up traveling to parallel earths (one where the summer of love never ended, one where communism engulfed the US, one seeming utopia that was actually controlled by a "lottery" which killed it's winners, i.e. Shirley Jackson).

It's an entertaining show, but I could certainly see how the concept would run out of steam pretty quickly... not sure how many seasons were created in all.

...and Krystals completely owns White Castle.

[Guest 70below]

yeah, I used to like the show until it got pretty tired. Good premise, and really there are a ton of ideas they could have used, I think some of the writers from the first season must have left or something.

Mmmmmm.....Krystals......Sounds like a good Valentines Day lunch for me and the little lady! :-D

[Guest abailey362]

same thoughts about small processed beef patties....mmmmmmmmm

but on the tv side, we own i think the complete series, but don't know that i've ever really watched any of it.

[Mike.357]

i don't recall that show at all. Of course senility means everything is new everyday.

I ain't so senile though to even think for a minute a Kystal mustard burger can be in the same league as a White Castle.

[Guest SUNTZU]

No, Mike, that's just being dumb. I found frozen White Castles at a Walmart once. Blech.

I don't recall ever seeing an episode in which they traveled to an alternate dimension where White Castle was superior to Krystal...

[Schadenfreude]

I followed this show across 3 networks back in the day, it kind of goes down hill as it gets long in the tooth I much prefer stargate the series but it definitely has its moments

[Guest db99wj]

I don't know what this "show" ya'll keep talking about, but I could eat me a half dozen Krystal's with cheese. White Castle, they are in my grocer's freezer. I'm going with Krystal.

[bteague2]

I used to watch the show when it was on cable. And it is no debate, Krystals owns white castle.

[Guest SUNTZU]

Just finished eating some Krystal's. Thanks. Yes, they were freaking awesome.

[towerclimber37]

I remember that show...fairly good one, what I saw of it.

did they ever get home??

I never found out...

[Guest Schwarzgebrannt]

First couple episodes were awesome. It was a smart show.

Then the continuity got fnarled by the execs and it went to crap before season 2.

[Guest bkelm18]

I watched it way back when. Cheesy special effects, oddball storylines, questionable acting. All the hallmarks of a great Sci-Fi show.

[Punisher84]

I'm gonna go in between and say that I have watched the show and I remember it being entertaining and that White Castle is pretty darn good fresh from the actual restaurant not the freeze dried box o' burgers. I still love me some Krystals though!

It's a scifi show starring the fat kid from Stand By Me. Who is now banging John Stamos's ex old lady.
