What is #BringBackSliders
I started a bring back sliders petition for it to be produced as a miniseries. In a response to the interviewer Matt Sernaker, Jerry O’Connell said maybe there’s an online petition we could start. Matt coined the hashtag, and I took action and ran with it. Sign it now. Jerry O’Connell and John Rhys-Davies have publicly supported it.
What happened to Michelle at the end of “El Sid”?
That’s left open-ended, as the writers never resolved this plot. It’s too bad they didn’t slide back to that world and find out.

The first two seasons (1995-1996) were filmed in Vancouver, Canada. While the last three (1996-2000) were filmed in Los Angeles, California and surrounding areas. Check out the Locations page where I’ve done extensive research to find many areas.

Did John Rhys-Davies (Arturo) leave?
