It's not the series finale that anyone wanted, but the story was an interesting world to visit: the Sliders' lives are the basis of a tv show. Beware, it does end with a cliffhanger that does not resolve the series.

Not a fan of the 3rd season as much. There were some interesting stories. It was nice to see them focus on 1 or 2 characters for each of these episodes... kinda like a farewell tour. However, the monologues at the beginning of each episode in this season made it feel like the writers were trying to tack a moral lesson to each (à la "Twilight Zone" or "Outer Limits"... of which the 1990s series had been running for about a year by this point). These monologues felt contrived and made it feel like the tone of the series had changed.

I always enjoyed this episode. 

This is my favorite episode of the new series.
