Trivia: This episode is about a bunch of snakes turned deadly when two "tri-adders" (a fictional species described as python like) are capture and one breaks free. Kari Wuher, who played Maggie and relatively new to the show, was in the film "Anaconda." "Anaconda" premiered two weeks prior to this episode being aired.
The Guardian - S3-E4
Trivia: Wade makes fun of Max for going to an opera he's seen before. Max responds that her generation thinks nothing of seeing Indiana Jones 13 times. John Rhys-Davies, who played Max, starred in the first and third Indiana Jones films.
This Slide Of Paradise - S3-E25
Trivia: In this episode, the group land on an island with hybrids who are half man and half animal, similar to "The Island of Dr. Moreau." This episode also features Michael York who starred in the 1977 film "The Island of Dr. Moreau." In the film, York plays Andrew Braddock who lands on the island after a boat wreck. In the episode, Quinn says they swam ashore after their boat capsized.
Trivia: The name of the vampires' band is "Stoker", also the title of the episode. This is a reference to Bram Stoker who wrote "Dracula." Several characters in the show are named after characters in "Dracula", such as Renfield, Harker, and Van Elsinger (a play on Van Helsing). When Quinn mentions the vampire Dracula to Van Elsinger, he says he's never heard of him.
Trivia: This episode was filmed prior to John Rhys-Davies leaving the show. But it ended up being aired after "The Exodus", where Rhys-Davies' character is killed off. So they added the short intro scene with Wade and Rembrandt reflecting on a past slide to the underground world, making this a flashback episode.
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.
