[edit] Sliders
David Peckinpah's work on Sliders has been controversial. Several fans on JumptheShark.com cite Peckinpah's involvement as the moment when the show jumped the shark [2]. On the other hand, Keith Damron, who worked with Peckinpah on Sliders, said of him on June 29, 1999, "David is a great guy to work for and professional to the core." [3]
