Summary of the TV series Constellation in which astronauts get into a state of Schrödinger superposition thus getting into alternative realities, much to their consternation.

I guess it would be all about interfering with your alternates.
 
Sounds like a new version of Sliders?

I find the format of the video linked very annoying. They narrate over an entire episode. Eh. If I have to sit through a half hour to get what's going on I want the original. It's a bit like somebody spending an hour telling me what's for lunch.

I didn't listen to it. I went to the Wikipedia page to get a synopsis in a couple of minutes. I pay no attention to reviews of anything. I can make up my mind on my own. And I never watch TV or movies so spoilers are what I want.

I think reviews of music in particular are passe. These days I can listen to 30 seconds of what an artist produces and know more than any review could ever tell me. I once actually was offered a "job" reviewing music but no way I was going to do that. Well actually I said yes but they didn't get back to me for months and by then I'd come to my senses.

The film "Sliding Doors," has this as a premise.
