Topic: The Unstuck Man


  
  The Unstuck Man (Sliders episode) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Unstuck Man is the first episode for the fifth season of the science fiction television show Sliders.
The episode opens with a man behind a bluescreen preparing to run a "quantum translocation program" with his research assistants.
Like Colin, Dr. Geiger is also an unstuck man. (The viewer will learn in the fifth season episode Eye of the Storm that unstuck also means that all of an individual's quantum duplicates -- their "doubles" -- are killed.)

Geiger explains that Colin became 'unstuck,' unstable in a state of flux involuntarily going from one world to another because the merge caused more energy to be released than anticipated.

In her own words new Slider Diana Davis is, "a pampered, hyper-achieving, always eager to be first, daddy's girl." At least, that's the person who leaps into the vortex at the end of season five's opening story The Unstuck Man.
As The Unstuck Man opens, the experiments of Dr Geiger have caused two of the established sliders to be lost: Colin (Charlie O'Connell) becomes 'unstuck', while Quinn (Jerry O'Connell) becomes fused with his alternate from that world, Mallory (Robert Floyd).
With leading man Jerry O'Connell departing after four years, and his brother Charlie also calling it a day, the series has by necessity undergone a major revamp.

 Slaughterhouse-Five : filmcritic.com Movie Review
The two successful adaptations (Robert B. Weide's adaptation of Mother Night and Stephen Gellar's adaptation of Slaughterhouse-Five) have managed to be successful by staying as close to the book as possible and by picking books that can make a transition to the screen with less difficulty.
Slaughterhouse-Five is the story of Billy Pilgrim, a man unstuck in time.
He is constantly drifting from one point in his life to another, pseudo-randomly working his way through three intertwined storylines about his experiences during the war (culminating in the bombing of Dresden), in the psychologically unpleasant life of suburbia, and on the planet Tralfamadore with porn-starlet Montana Wildhack.
