All I ask of this show is that they bring Sam Becket back home!
There was an episode where Al told Sam that he conceived a daughter. The daughter joined the team and was working in a way to bring Sam home. We only saw the daughter in the past as a little girl. I was hoping the adult version of that character would be on the new show. Since their bringing in one of Al’s daughters, I hope we get to see Beth at some point.
The novelization quantum leap story "The LochNess leap". Sam's daughter is in that story. It's been many years since I've read it. I do recall it set sometime in the early '80s and she is supposed to be a college student on some sort of group expedition in LochNess.
Its obviously this daughter is actually Sammy jo fuller I think all faked her identity to protect her
Yeah I hope she's a protagonist and not an antagonist. Also if sam is still leaping who is helping him if al is dead
well Ernie Hudson character is magic from the Vietnam episode
We did. Magic went to her home and talked to her.
Actually Beth saw Sam as himself in Mirror Image because he lept as himself in and out of that episode. He wasn't inside Beth's "friend" from MIA in S2. 🤣
So Al would've always known it was Sam. Especially when Beth would've seen a pic from Al's present. There was actually an alternate ending filmed but never shown where Beth/Al talk about how to get Sam back.
Sammie Jo Fuller's role is one of several questions that I believe the original series left unanswered. For me, the chief question, above all else, is the Evil Leaper Project and its master, Lothos. Where in Space Time are they? Who or what, is Lothos? What do they want? Where is Alia?
Secondary question is how many other Leapers are there? We saw Al's Uncle Leap out of the bar in the finale, but how did he become a Leaper? Are there other methods beside an Accelerator? Is Time Travel truly only limited to your own lifetime?
Back in the 90s, many fans noticed that the evil leaper and Lothos episode happened immediately after the UFO episode "Star Bright, Star Light", where Sam revealed some details to government agents about the project while under truth serum.
@@John-ct9zs That's always been my theory. A secret agency got the details that were revealed by Sam and they saw how accurate they were and followed Sam's work in the shadows. They developed their own time travel program except it was influenced by the evil force Sam met in the Halloween episode that disguised itself as Al.
There was filmed alternitve ending to the orginal series which can be see here which Al and Beth vow to bring Sam home
Quantum leap was set in the year 1999, its said in an episode
The original show was always 6 years in the future from the audience present. In 1989, the show was set in 1995. 1995 was when Sam first leapt. When the show ended in 1993, Al and the project were in 1999.
@@John-ct9zs So Al became hologram in 1999 after 4 years project quantum leap dismantled. The new cast just repeated the same history. They never learn. Ben or Sam never intended to be found. There still other leapers.
I think they should bring Terri Hatcher back as Donna. Sam's wife was involved with Project Quantum Leap, and she would be emotionally involved about Sam coming home.
I think it should be Mimi Kuzyk who was the older Donna who Sam was actually married to at the time of the leap.
Love hiw you laid it down.... Knowing that Al's daughter is behind this, gives us the big question to Ben's leaping... what is the big question ? Well, it's in each of us watching the show..
This show is definitely a follow up, or sequel to the original show. I believe, the more we watch the series, the more answers we will get to our questions.... like; Where's Sam ? What's the story with Al's daughter ?
Imagine if Ben Song is a leaped version of Sam who got stuck and spent years without a memory until realizing who he was. This would explain some of the erratic behavior where Ben seemed to have two lives.
I do think that if this series settles and is successful, Bakula will do a cameo in maybe a season 1 cliff-hanger. Its ironic that this new show sounds better the more connected it is with the original.
I wasn't interested in the show until they connected it to the old show. Now I'll consider watching it.
I have a Feeling that DR. Ben is also someone whos life was changed or even created due to one of sams leaps and al knew that and recruited ben when his daughters could not be apart of the QL program to brig sam home
That’s possible there were people who were supposed to die but Sam saved them. I remember at least one where Sam kept into the body of a pregnant woman in the early 80s and saved the life of her teenage son, who had been kidnapped by a serial killer and would have been murdered if Sam hadn’t intervened. Maybe the teen grew up and was Ben’s dad, or maybe someone else whose death was averted by Sam is Ben’s father … or maybe the female leaper that Sam rescued from the evil Leaper project is somehow involved
@@YeoYeo32 I remember Sam leaping into a pregnant woman but that was to prevent her from giving her baby up for adoption cause she felt guilty and tried to find the child with no luck but that was in 1955 I don’t remember him leaping into the body of a pregnant woman in the 80’s
The second show was great and I'm anxious to see what they have planned for the future and despite Scott's
tweets hope Sam will be back
What if Song is trying to Find Sam as well. And Al's daughter had found a way to do so.
I watched the second episode last night at the end of it I was thinking maybe Ben leaped to try to find Sam and that's why Al's daughter helped him
0:14 "Dr Sam Beckett decided to keep leaping through time in 1993 knowing that there were more people who needed to be saved". That character of Sam Beckett doesn't make this decision in 1993. Although the series ended in 1993 the, first season was set in 1995 and in the finale it says that Al and Beth "will celebrate their 39th anniversary in June". They were married in 1961 suggesting the series ends in 2000 (or late 1999). If Sam made a conscious decidion to keep leaping then it could be said he did so in 1953 or 1969 (the periods Sam visits in the final episode) or in 2000 but not in 1993.
I caught that too. In the original show project Quantum Leap took place in 1999 which means after 5 years Sam would have been in 2004, still leaping around maybe they meant to say 2015? They just didn't do their research I guess LOL
It was originally set in 1999, they didn't even get that right
Timey wimey.
Please keep Dean Stockwell memory alive in the new show
The fist episode was pretty good as long as they keep the shows idea. And keep positive interesting story’s. It will do well. The need to keep the waiting room they can learn a lot to help the new leapers. I do hope Sam comes back and pay the respect that the actor. Deserves. A lot they can learn from the orginal show. That started all.
Scott Bakula's tweets read like they were written and filtered through many layers of corporate PR suits. I honestly think it is a smart move not to bring Sam in right out of the gate, I think the show needs room to find its stride and to work its way to discovery the mysteries of leaping and who knows, maybe by the end of season 1 we'll get Sam's trail and down the line in a later season the ultimate goal is to bring Sam home and Bakula will be there then.
I have a theory that I've yet to see anyone touch on. I wonder if we'll see Samantha Josephine "Sammy Jo" Fuller. she'd be about 55 in 2022. last mentioned working as a project technician on QL (per Trilogy part III) who could she be, I don't think Addison Augustine could be, she's too young, I'd put her in her early 30s, Ian Wright maybe, still young but could be much older, their soul seems to be. or could Sammy Jo be working for the DOD now and the entire reason the project was reopened. I am so ready for this journey.
I have a feeling we haven't been given the full story of why Scott declined a role on the Quantum Leap sequel, especially since he has said for years that he was open to reprising the role.
I think bringing sam home by the end of the season would be best cause not bringing him home could break the series cause a lot of fans myself included want to see the next chapter in sam’s life beyond leaping weather it’s being the new hologram working on the project at he base or going on to another job but conclude the leaping part of his story
I think Scott Bakula might be pulling a Steve Carell and just straight lying. So when he does popup in the show, it will be a complete surprise to everyone. Just a stupid theory.
That’s what I hoped! We can dream can’t we? 😂
Since Al's daughter is becoming a sort of an antagonist with Quantum Leap team, what about Dr. Sam Beckett's daughter? Does she have anything to say about this situation? I would love to see her input in the second season.
The final episode, Sam spent the time in a diner. When he looked in the mirror, he saw is own face (a little older) for the first time in years. Then he saw the calender on the wall and realized it was the day he was born (at 2 am I believe). The moment he lept out and was "lost" was the exact moment he was being born.
I believe the "diner" was God's waiting room. Sam wasn't lost, nor did he continue to leap... he was reborn, living his life, having the same experiences as he did before, until the moment he stepped into the accelerator. Dr. Sam Beckett is caught in a time loop.
That's my theory.
I'm about to watch the old quantum leap
Good video!
I like this show I just wonder, is Sam's daughter going to be a part of it. Remember he did make a daughter who did work on the old Quantum Leap project.
95 was when Sam decided to continue leaping not 93 in their time line
I didn't realise that there was new series of Quantum leap. I hope it is also available in the UK. Thank you.
I hope it comes to the uk too maybe via peacock on now tv (NBC owns it) or sky max or sky sci fi since they have the original QL also hope magnum pi will come back too since they got renewed by NBC
Also I’m wondering if they’re going to do much with Ernie Hudson‘s character Herbert “magic” Williams whom (Sam lept into)since he was also in the original series as a member of Tom’s (Sam’s brother) seal team in Vietnam.
I wonder if Ernie Hudson's character even knows he was a leapee. Does he have any memories of being in the Waiting Room?
@@italianviking80 so far that hasn’t been brought up since there attention at the moment is figuring out why Ben prematurely leap like Sam did cause I don’t think they ever figured out what Sam prematurely leaped sense it was a rare thing to see the base in the original run
Well said
Ok dr Sam Beckett never returned home but Sam Beckett was still born grew up went to college and could still start project quantum leap right?
yes
From this week’s episode it looks like Ben may have been looking for Sam by the specific point in time he was trying to pinpoint and asked Al’s daughter to help him but ultimately felt leaping might be the best way to try and find him probably hope he might bump into him during a leap or something like that
Spoiler alert! 😁 What if this is why he modified the 'quantum leap' machine to take him further back in time than his own lifetime. (TO FIND SAM and bring him home!)
It's still entirely possible for Scott to come back for a later season.
That's if it lasts for more than one season
It's was ok. I am kind of confused how they did not know he would for sure loose his memory if they knew all about Sam. I think this show is trying too much to rely on people liking the special effects. The reason the old show worked was it focused on the person Sambleaped into and thier story you became more invested in it. This one is bouncing back and forth I can't get a feel for who he leaped into and how they lives need to be fixed
Sam Beckett has performed miracles for the human race. Time to bring him home.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Al Calavicci was a Rear Admiral, why did they use a Captain picture. I’m sure he wasn’t busted unless that’s a different plot element….or maybe a redesigned future…married with 5 kids.
Beth Would recognize Sam. Sam appeared as Himself in front of her.
In my opinion, this show has started very weakly. First issue is that it doesn’t establish why after all the data accumulated during Sam’s exploits, they are reopening the Quantum Leap program. I mean, Sam has never returned, so 30 years or so later the government is going to fund another go?
Secondly, the network has never why we need to care about these new characters. In the original we slowly became involved and learned to love Sam & Al. While in this version, we spend more time seeing the behind the scenes with secondary characters in the control room and imaging chamber.
Thirdly, we all know the premise that the leader should only be able to leap into people of his own lifetime, but we also know that premise was squashed in the original series. Sam jumped into people that were beyond his lifetime as well. To start this new version and not acknowledge this is a sham.
#WeWantScottBakula
There were only a couple of instances where he leapt out of this own time line. One was when he lept into his great-grandfather and also in the episode called 'The Leap Back'. They were all explaned though and they didn't toe the line very much. Sam always was within his own time line.
So let me get this straight... Scott Bakula is a werewolf? If you know you know.
I thought the whole point of Sam telling Al's wife that he was still alive was that she waited for him, he came home to her and thus never worked with Sam on the Quantum Leap project. So, how would he even know who Sam was?
Nice tie in with the original series high hopes for this series
It seems to be focused in the 80s decade. If the rules still apply, then Ben's leap is within either,
It is Ben's lifetime (childhood)
Or
Sam's lifetime (childhood)
The Episode takes place in 1985. It's most likely within Ben's Timeline. Sam would not have been a child in 85.
I can dig it. I think.
Where's the waiting room? Letting them out to help in the modern world would allow the cast to get out of that generic facility of flat screens and computers. It's in every show Blacklist, NCIS, 24, Return of Knight Rider. It's an exposition dump.
Hopes Ben was looking for Sammy Jo if she went looking for her father..
Now how could Al even have any kids since he was executed due to that "fail" from Sam's part and NEVER was in the project, at all? Unless did Sam leap even farther back to rectify that "fail"? Also, it clearly states at the end of the original that Sam was never seen again.
I agree partially and the thought somehow Al would discuss with beth the visitor and come to the conclusion he was a time traveler considering the project didn't start until years later, and that's assuming he'd even join it at all after marrying Beth. But the ending didn't actually say Sam was never seen again it said he never returned home. I know it's kinda splitting hairs but theres a difference so yeah. I'm still on fence with this 'not reboot' see how it goes I guess.
Have you ever watched the mirror image or leap for Lisa ? mirror image Sam goes back to Beth and tells her that Al is alive and he's coming home to her .the leap for Lisa episode Sam gets Al's buddy to admit he accidentally killed the lieutenants wife because she had the hots for Al and he basically forced himself on her , her husband watched but because the admiral didn't like Al ( bingo ) he claimed Al raped and killed her .Sam changed Al's history here so he never got executed .
I think Ben is the son of Sam Beckett
With who, Lucy Liu?
Ben song instead of Sam Beckett……
in the alternate ending for quantum leap ( it's on the quantum leap Al's place page I believe) they show Al like he's " retired " talking with his wife Beth in the intro they show a bunch of their family pics one is him , Beth and their four grown daughters .the Scott bakula not coming back for personal reasons could be explained like this .I saw a article about the continuation of quantum leap with and I quote a Oriental in the lead .that to me is a little racist in itself .so maybe when Scott saw the script he saw how every character was described and didn't like it I know I wouldn't appreciate and don't like when people have to ask are you white because I'm not fluent in Spanish or understand a lot of it .
Uh they never solved Dr Sam Beckett return? It would be ironic if Dr. Ben Song, leap in Sam Beckett before Quantum Leap project begin that how the whole project started
1) I will watch only through Season 1. If Sam Beckett does not reappear in some form, I will not continue watching. To me, there is no Quantum Leap without that.
2) **SPOILER ALERT**: One of the things I loved about original was that Sam really was someone thrown into situations and when he didn’t need to do something, you saw him bumble through it with Al’s rudimentary knowledge. Just watching episode 2 and had to roll my eyes at the fact that Ben seems to know and be quite comfortable on a space shuttle, even going so far as to intentionally float off of it to go towards another space station to get their attention. I rolled my eyes so hard. If that is what I can expect more of, I won’t be interested.
He appeared in some form, a picture! It's kind of its own story seperate from the original QL, and is historical fiction as well. I'm excited to see where it goes, even if Scott Bakula doesn't make an appearance at all! :) It's all silly fiction that's wrapped up in history.
Bakula will be back.
What happened to Sam's daughter?
The first episode bored me so much that, after the first commercial break, I stopped watching.
I think Sam will return in the finale.
If Scott were on the show he would be the only straight white male on the show.
I'm cool with Ben and the Hologram woman.... Not so much on the other characters,
Or they leap into the same time and family. Kinda like the evil leaped did in original. Benn could then tell Sam they are doing everything to bring them home. Ps. Where is Sammie jo Sam's daughter.
I think they need to rethink the actors in the show. They don't work!!! Cancel this lame show and start remaking something work watching.
Is Ben and Sam having reversed initials for their names intentional or coincidence.
Well either way much like the day you were born it's BS you sob what you are sprouting
I never watched the original show so i did not make this connection.
Original tv series was better 💛
The new quantum leap will be stupid, nothing like the original…..
I love how some people over the summer keep on saying this is woke and they never even saw the show I love the old show and I'm really liking the new show
The show is completely woke, how a can you deny that? There is not one conventional white male in the entire cast, which includes a non-binary individual. In the 2nd show he leaps into a space shuttle in the 1990s with a crew of 1 female, 1 Asian, 1 black and 1 Hispanic guy. The only white guys appearing in this series so far were the bad guys in the 1st episode. Yeah, this show is not woke, lol.
@@lorrainefiel9103 You've visited planned Parenthood a few time Lorraine.
My Theory. Sam Beckett took over the body of “The New Project Lead” , Raymond Lee, installed the additional software to the system, and restarted the leaping chamber to get help in correcting a disaster that happened in the 2016 Presidential Elections.
Oh my god, get over it already.
@@JediOfTheRepublic TDS is a terrible affliction.
Yeah i agree! That horrible Hillary claiming she won! And THEN she wouldn't shut up about it for four straight years! Think they use her voice to torture prisoners.
I think there's a weird but important question of causality here - how does everyone but Sam/Ben experience the changes that Ben makes to the timeline?
This is really based on three points in the show. First, there's a second-season episode where Al goes in front of a Congressional budget committee to secure the billions necessary to keep the project going, and Al experiences both the timeline before and after Sam makes any changes. (Sam essentially helps someone pass the bar which puts them on the committee instead.) Second, is the whole Donna Eleese part where she left him at the altar as per that first season episode, and then Sam made some changes in her own life so she'd deal with some unresolved issues with her dad... and then she popped up in that later season premiere and Al acted like she was always there. Third is when Sam leaped into Al at the end of the fourth season, and after Sam changed things so Al died, Roddy McDowell suddenly pops up like nothing happened, but then when Sam finds a cigar, Al pops back like nothing happened.
The point is - what if Addison died and Ben saved her, but at the *endpoint* of this slingshot maneuver? Maybe he goes through this whole thing and we're seeing the successful timeline that results from the end of it... and THEN we begin to understand what was going on from his point of view in the "original" timeline through flashbacks in the final episode (of the season)?
this woke show will be cancel after 1 season .. or 2 at least
I knew this show would fail. An asian male lead just isn't marketable in the Western world. #JBW
Wait so they actually went ahead and did a 2022 quantum leap. One this is a pile of dog shit. Loved the 90s
This version is pure garbage. Load of shit.
I think Ben is the son of Sam Beckett
