Sliders

Trivia: On the equation on Quinn's chalkboard, T squared ("T2") appears in several places, a nod to Tracey Torme, Co-director of the series.

Matty Blast

Trivia: Doesn't the timer look a lot like a cell phone? That is because the prop was constructed from the base of an old Nokia. Other timer props used throughout the series were from Sega controllers or Universal remotes.

Trivia: John Rhys-Davies, who was the first main star to leave the series, was often critical of the show's writing and writers. He said many didn't even read science fiction which led to them borrowing from other works. Works like "Jurassic Park", "The Lost World", "Tremors", "Night of the Living Dead", "The Island of Dr. Moreau", and "Dracula." There was even an scene where Quinn had to cross an invisible bridge similar to Indiana Jones in The Last Crusade, which Rhys-Davies starred in.

Questions

Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? - S4-E6

Question: In the beginning credits of movies/t.v. shows, when they say "and introducing" followed by the actor's name, it is because it is the 1st acting role for that actor. In this episode when the introduced Quinn's brother, the beginning credits say "and introducing Charlie O'Connell." However he has done other acting roles before he appeared on Sliders. As a matter of fact, he did 2 episodes on Sliders as a different character before he became Quinn's brother. So is there a reason why the actor was "introduced" in this episode?

SAZOO1975

Chosen answer: Quinn's brother was going to be a recurring character, so "introduced" in this case referred to the actor becoming a semi-regular.
