It wasn’t the best show, but Sliders had an episode where they visited a time continuum of earth where women ran everything and men were meek and subservient. The episode highlighted what it would be like if there were sexualized expectations for men’s clothes, if workplace harassment of men were normalized and was excruciatingly accurate in it. For a show 30 years ago that I watched probably 3 episodes of, it’s still stuck in my head because of how far ahead of the TV curve it was with subject matter and writing.
Better than movies, read Phillip k dick stories. So many of them became movies. Minority Report (2002) was a decent adaptation. Paycheck is truly great story, but terrible movie. A Little Something For Us Temponauts has not been ruined by hollywood yet. Its a really good time travel story.
Thank you for posting this. That was one of my favorite games growing up, I thought I was the only one left who remembered it. That mechanic was genius, switching between both parallel worlds and making changes that affected both so that both stories could progress. It must have been conceptualized by a student of physics who wanted to hold and feel the multiple parallel universe theory. That game alone had to have inspired its generation into science.
