Sliders Some of the Sliders TV shows depict resistance groups that fight "native" tyrants and/or aliens, mainly the Kromaggs on the different Earths the main characters encounter as they "slide" from Earth to Earth. The show is set in the present(at the time it was filmed), thus this may qualify as "alternate history". One episode depicted the grisly consequences of the successful passage of legislation similar to Prop. 187 in CA., another depicted the US under Communist rule, yet another depicted what happens as lawyers settle lawsuits in Old West gunfights instead of settling them in court, and yet other shows depict Earth under alien dominion, with some Earths fighting them. Another Sliders show depicted an Earth that is similar to the "Sword and Sorcery" movies. This implies that if you can imagine what ever you're imagining, there is an Earth or more than one Earth in which what you're imagining is that Earth's reality.
