Have to say though it kind of Jumped the Shark with the addition of the Technos.

A Tech Revivalist Faction was a good idea but they took it too far.
The Tech was far too advanced.
And if the Technos had that level of Tech then why did they need the scraps that the Mall Rats and the other Locals had?

Daft.

An audio drama would be really cool, or voice-acting plus some very simple comic animation like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gO9KDelKdxc

Though extremely basic, it could work quite well for Sliders project, and would allow for some neat background pieces and world building.

Either by contacting the original idea person and asking to continue or by making a completely new one of our own creation.

It is a lot easier now too as prior most of such Fanvids involved actual Physical Plastic Figures and Stop Motion but now the Lego Computer Games could allow us to do such a Fan Film like a CG Cartoon.

Matt's other project was a spin-off web series for SLIDERS, to be done in collaboration with an amateur (but now professional) filmmaker in England. A series of short films with original characters, set in the SLIDERS multiverse in which sliding is now an urban legend.

While a first season of scripts were completed

That sounds very exciting.

Paramount permits STAR TREK fanfilms and Lucasfilm had no issue with numerous STAR WARS fanfilms. Fan fiction is generally tolerated. Copyrights are viewed as potentially lost unless vigorously defended -- but most studios seem to think that fan fiction poses no threat to their copyrights due to being (a) profitless (b) free advertising. If an audio drama were profit free, I doubt NBCUniversal would object, although they would be well within their rights to shut it down for any reason or for no reason and it'd be a lot of work to hang on the whim of some executive.

Matt's project wasn't the Lego, unless there's something he's not telling me.

On the old-old Bboard, Matt revealed his SLIDERS projects, so I feel it's alright to reiterate what he previously posted. The first SLIDERS project was going to be Tracy Torme's long-awaited series finale to SLIDERS. Tracy contacted Matt back in 2009. Tracy wanted to write fanfic! Tracy wanted to write a movie-length script for SLIDERS that would act as a grand series finale. The officially unofficial finale of SLIDERS, unapproved by NBCUniversal and therefore apocryphal, non-canonical and nothing but some random guy's fanfic on the Internet -- except that it would be fanfic from the co-creator of the series.

Tracy also intended to send it to Temporal Flux at the Dimension of Continuity. Both would have the script. I imagine that Temporal Flux, in his infinite cleverness and daring, would have found some artists to illustrate various key moments of the story and perhaps written some prequels and sequels and missing scenes, the way Marvel blockbuster movies have comic book tie-ins. Matt, meanwhile, would have posted the script and aided in producing an audio drama version with Jerry, Sabrina, Cleavant and John.

Unfortunately, after the 2009 interview, Torme got too busy with various paid projects -- too busy to write fanfic, and the project slowly faded away like a date he could never find time to schedule.

I was told what the story was in bits and pieces and I think I have a full picture of the tale. I will decline to reveal what the story would have been because I would like to let Sliders Rewatch talk about it when they do their podcast for "The Seer" (and, possibly, when they do their podcast for SLIDERS REBORN) and I am going to mercilessly tease information to promote their podcast because. However, Matt has no need to restrain himself. ;-)

I will say that Tracy's story featured Quinn, Wade, Rembrandt and Arturo (of course).

I'm sorry it didn't happen because I know you would have all appreciated it. On a selfish level, however, I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. The fact that Tracy Torme was going to write fanfic and use the format of PDF screenplays inspired me to write "Slide Effects" and eventually SLIDERS REBORN -- if it was good enough for Tracy, why not for me? If Tracy had written his finale story, I wouldn't have written REBORN and I wouldn't have this opportunity to lay some demons to their final rest.

Matt's other project was a spin-off web series for SLIDERS, to be done in collaboration with an amateur (but now professional) filmmaker in England. A series of short films with original characters, set in the SLIDERS multiverse in which sliding is now an urban legend.

While a first season of scripts were completed, only bits and pieces of the project were ever filmed and I don't believe it will ever see the light of day. However, there were periods when I did not believe SLIDERS REBORN would ever see the light of day (well, like 36 hours), so who knows. SLIDERS REBORN was merely delayed due to the writer learning what he jokingly refers to as his craft; maybe the web series is just the same. Matt completed his end of the project by supplying the scripts. I read all of them and they were creative, daring, thrilling and a terrific reworking of the SLIDERS platform. The people who wanted to film it, like Tracy, got side-tracked with stuff that could pay the mortgage. No shame in that.

I've long been a proponent of an audio drama as the most feasible method for a fan project (outside of script/fanfic related projects).

An audio drama would be awesome, or even a very simple motion comic with audio.

Some Stuff can be Made original but as it is a non profit Fan Edit I don't see a problem in borrowing Scenes from other Media.

The copyright owners might disagree.  If you're planning on posting the video where it can be seen, they could take legal action.

There are some hilarious Lego Command & Conquer Stop Motion Fan Vids with Audio that I highly recommend!

I'll add a Youtube Link in a bit.

Edit: Here ya go!
