"The Exodus," Excised (2007)

"The Exodus" was the seminal two-part episode of Sliders that not only killed Professor Arturo, but the likeability of the other Sliders and the credibility of the show's concept. Members of the Earth Prime forum discussed the possibility of trimming both parts into one regular-length episode: could doing so salvage the episode from its own rotten legacy? Several efforts were produced, with the finished product here being the one developed by Earth Prime.

The combined episode sheds a lot of the friction and nonsense while preserving some sense of dignity for Arturo's demise. The remaining Sliders are no longer at each other's throats, and much of the offending science that permeates the original has been removed. For a more complete list of the changes, click here.
