It wasn't necessarily the fat kid taking control...

See, Dumbass fox forced the creator off the show, then put their own minion in control.

He then killed off the professor, introduced the talking tits,, and ruined the show.

Then, Sci-Fi took over, and let the fat kid have his say along with Fox's minion... and ruined the show further.

By season 5, when no one was left, the episodes got better... but no one was left... in the cast or watching.

But I agree... I'd like to see all of Sliders on DVD. However, Universal doesn't seem to be putting out their TV Shows on DVD.

Stupid Fucking Universal!
