I've seen a lot of people complain that we might get Season 3 DVD's. Why is that?

Wouldn't you like to see David Peckinpah comment on some of Season 3's more classic episodes?

On "Exodus Pt. 2"
"Oh, here's my favorite scene. I remember we were tossing around ideas on how to kill the fat guy. And this homeless man said, 'How about you get a British colonel to suck out all his brain fluid?' It was pure genius! Funny thing about that guy: he ended up becoming the Executive Vice President at Sci-Fi."

On "Slither"
"I first got the idea for 'Slither' on a field trip to the zoo. I saw a snake, and I had a little accident. So, I thought, what if I could write an episode where really smart snakes attack people? That could REALLY scare people.

...

"Here's a piece of information few of you know. Originally, Colonel Rickman was going to turn himself into a snake and he was going to do a 25 minute rendition of 'Living on a Prayer' with half of the Go-Go's. But we had to cut that out. It was really funny with him hissing all the words, though. 'Slissings son sa Slayers' Ha ha!"

On "The Breeder"
"Kari really didn't think that Maggie was slutty enough. But I knew that we couldn't make her suddenly turn into a slut now, especially after wasting so much film with her with her clothes on. So, I went off to build a time machine to turn back time to make Maggie a slut from the beginning.

"So, 'Breeder' was what I wrote for the redux of the Sliders Pilot after my time machine was built. But that failed, and we had to put this episode in Season 3. Its sad, really, because the slut angle had so many possibilities."

On the rest of Season 3
"Ironically, we didn't write enough scripts to finish the season. So, we went to Blockbuster and rented a lot of movies. When Fox told us that we couldn't copy pornographic movies, we told the cast to improvise the episodes we had left.

"So, 'Dinoslide', 'Stoker', and 'This Slide of Paradise' are mainly just big episodes of 'Whose Line is it Anyway.'

"Oh, speaking of that. We were going to reveal at the end of the year that Rickman was really Clive Anderson and that the whole show was really just an episode of 'Whose Line'. But we couldn't break onto the 'Whose Line' set, so we went with the crazy time travel idea at the end of 'This Slide'. I think it worked out better in the end."



And don't forget the Season 4 DVD's.

On "Genesis"
"Brannon Braga, the genius creator of Star Trek, made a bet with me. The bet was who could completely destroy their respective franchises by throwing in strange plot lines that didn't make sense, filling the screen with the same 'alien' villain week after week, and turning it into the 'Silicone Breast Hour'.

"Safely to say, I'm not five dollars richer..."



ENJOY!
