Corrected entry: As there are ten seconds left until the slide, the timer starts beeping. The beeping gets faster as the time counts down but it's one of the only times the timer beeps to signify that the Sliders' time is up.

Corrected entry: After Arturo's campaign video, there's "Paid for by the committee to elect Maximillian Arturo for Mayor", but the narrator says something like "Paid for by the Arturo committee". (00:27:10)
Correction: You get the same message, it's not necessary to have all of the exact same words. This happens plenty of times in real life, as well.

Sliders (1995)
Corrected entry: In the episode where the Sliders go to the world where Quinn sees himself as a child attending his father's funeral, Quinn helps his young self deal with bullies. Quinn repeatedly mentions it was all happening exactly the way it did on Earth Prime. The flaw here is that in the series premiere episode, they showed a picture of Quinn, his mom and dad. Quinn was a teenager in that picture, not a kid. Therefore the events in the alternate world could not be happening the exact same way. And we know his mother never remarried and the man in the picture could not have been a stepfather because throughout the whole series they repeatedly show Quinn's father and he is the very same person in the picture.
Correction: The odds of everything happening the EXACT same way is too thin for it to actually happen. Just like the first world that he Slid into, it was just a VERY similar world, although not exactly the same. It's the same case here, Quinn was just wrong in his assumption.
You're missing the major point. The picture with Quinn and his parents in the pilot shows he was older than 11 at the time. But in "The Guardian" we learn Quinn's father died when he was 11, which he remembers, that's not Quinn being wrong in his assumption. The days of the bullying occurred on the exact days he remembered because the events were the same, which is why he was able to be there at the right time. Even his dog running away was the same.

Correction: Quinn says a few times throughout the show that he's always making adjustments to the timer. Obviously, that was one of them. Just because we don't see him fiddling with it doesn't mean that he doesn't, especially after what he said.
