Learned about it not too long ago and apparently the made for tv movie from early 90s is on YouTube so I’ll watch it tonight or tomorrow. It’s about a woman from a parallel earth and apparently Sliders was accused of ripping off the story. I loved Sliders by the way except for the ridiculous idea to make it the Cro-Mag show in later seasons. One of my favorite science fiction subgenres are multiverse/alternate history stories. It’s what got me to read up on quantum physics and multiverse theories.
But anyway I’m gonna check out Doorways as well as Space Above and Beyond (been on this kick of watching short lived shows lately).
Pretty sure I watched this one a while back.
If it's the one I'm thinking of, it was bad, low-budget sci fi. I enjoyed it.
Had something to do with a parallel universe where crude oil no longer existed (eaten by a mutated bacteria or something), and all of the ramifications that come with that.
Yes! So it was kinda like old west but sleigh some modern stuff and using horses to pull gas less cars. Also at the end they escaped through a doorway and were standing on top of a Mt Rushmore with Ben Franklin, Davy Crockett, a Native American, and Susan B Anthony I think. So clearly setting up a show but network wasn’t interested. I can see why they say Sliders is a rip off since it is a very similar premise
