Luck of the Draw may refer to:
The following is a list of episodes for the Fox and Sci Fi Channel original series, Sliders. The series aired on Fox from March 1995 to May 1997 and on the Sci Fi Channel from June 1998 to February 2000. A total of 88 episodes were produced.
At present, the following DVD sets have been released by Universal Home Video.
Fox changed the intended order of the episodes, beginning with episodes they thought would draw in audiences. This often causes confusion and sometimes chronological errors in continuity with respect to the story arc (for example, episode 5 opens with the resolution to the cliffhanger brought about in episode 6). The intended and filmed order of the episodes is as follows:
1-2. "Pilot, (Parts 1 and 2)"
6. "Summer of Love"
5. "Prince of Wails"
3. "Fever"
4. "Last Days"
8. "The Weaker Sex"
7. "Eggheads"
9. "The King is Back"
10. "Luck of the Draw"
As in Season 1, Fox again broadcast the episodes out of their intended order, this time even changing the finale. The producers' intended order is as follows:
Luck of the Draw is the eleventh album by Bonnie Raitt, released in 1991 (see 1991 in music).
After being nominated for Grammy awards in four different categories for the album Nick of Time, Raitt went for a creative retreat in Northern California to begin work on Luck of the Draw. "I did it on purpose to see if I could come up with anything," Raitt said in 1991. "In case I won, I wanted to make sure that I had done some writing and didn't feel that Nick of Time was a fluke. I didn't want to win just 'cause I quit drinking and spent twenty years not making any money, you know? There wasn't enough. So I basically forced myself to go to songwriting boot camp. There were three of four days when it didn't happen — but because I didn't have alcohol or unhappiness or anything to get in the way, it started to open up and I started three of the four songs of mine that are on this album. And then it didn't matter if I won or not, because I had proved to myself that it was okay."
You dust the bottles on the bar counter
You're writing screenplays on the side
Three nights a week can keep a girl workin
Sometimes it's good to lose your pride.
These things we do to keep the flame burnin
And write our fire in the sky
Another day to see the world turnin
Another avenue to try.
It's in the Luck of the Draw, Baby
The Natural Law
Forget those movies you saw, little Baby
It's in the Luck of the Draw, Baby
The Natural Law
(flame keep on burnin)
Forget those movies you saw, little Baby
(wheel ever turnin).
You turn around and say it's last orders
You fix the ribbon in your hair
