Quantum Leap: Anyone remember it?

*Spike Spiegel* · 06-11-2008, 04:53 PM

"Theorizing that one could time travel within his own lifetime, Doctor Sam Beckett leaped into the Quantum Accelerator...and vanished..."

These words are the first part of the intro to what I consider to be one of the best sci-fi shows ever. It was so well written and well made....anybody here remember it?

Remember it? It's still on some channels. Loved the show, though. I always like when h\e leaped into a woman, heh. And I liked Al.

It currently airs weeknights on ION. One of my fave shows. There was supposed to be a sequel to it but I haven't heard anything about it in a while.

*sings the theme song* As I travel thru space and time...I want to stay..I want to go... you see a face but it's not mine...

Used to be one of my favorite shows. Love the last episode.

Used to watch this show when I stayed up late working on college projects. Back then SciFi channel played it at like 2am every nite. Good stuff, but dated of course. I think the new show "journeyman" was similar, and it was actually getting really good when it got cancelled.

There was a sequel planned?? What was it supposed to be about? I always thought the final episode was fairly ambiguous, and there's definitely an open door for a sequel......

Sam's daughter travels thru time to find her dad. Scott Bakula would occasionally make cameo appearances.

The series was also continued in Novels (the last one came out in 2000) and Comics (there's one where he leaps into a Roswell alien

)

And incidentally in honor of the 20th annaversary of the show there'll be a Con in L.A in 2009 that has 50 guests on the list so far! Man..I'd love to go just to meet Scott Bakula, Dean Stockwell, Claudia Christian, and Vaughn Armstrong.
