Article: What Would You Change? • "Pilot"

SYNTHIA [materializing]: Please state the nature of the postual emergency.

BLINKER [handing her a spec sheet]: Handle this, would you? I've got coding to do. [dashes off, leaving a strangely Roadrunner-shaped cloud of dust]

SYNTHIA [sighs and narrates into the camera]:

Here's the concept. Reply to this post by suggesting a change to the Sliders pilot (both parts shall count as one episode for our purposes.) You can rewrite a line, devise an alternate ending, point out something obvious the characters should have done, or aaaaaanything else you want. For example: Harry Shearer should have delivered Day Tripper's lines in Kent Brockman's voice.

For extra inspiration, you might try taking on the role of someone involved in Sliders production, such as...

David Peckinpah: I thought the Pilot was okay, actually. It had plenty of special effects shots, a resistance movement, a nude feminist pageant, and a climactic gunfight. Plus, I loved that scene where Quinn realizes his dad's a vampire on this world and drops his glass of blood. But why'd that idiot Tormé call Quinn's basement the Bat-Cave if he was going to make it the Fortress of Solitude in "The Guardian"? I mean, I did the best I could to clarify things...

The goal is to either genuinely improve the episode or be as amusing as possible. Then check out tomorrow's game for your shiny new prize!
