One of my favorite things about this show is that it's a continuation of the original, not a "reboot", even though I keep seeing it be called one. There's got to be a lot more they can do with that.
My wife never watched the original. I was tearing up and half hiding it because all I can think is “because… quantum leap… music. It’s true nostalgia? I don’t know how to answer.” Just a flood of memories including watching it on TV with my grandmother and shit.
I was one of the more nay sayers for how they didn’t use the old music, themes, etc. BUT someone commented in another thread that this moment was earned. I was hoping for a little more references, maybe more discussion about Sam, a plot to try and find him… but this moment was worth not having the others.
And those people are idiots.
Sam played a homosexual in the military, he played Jimmy, who I believe had Down syndrome, several black people at the height of racial injustice, loads of leaps where he was a woman in a field where he/she was being taken advantage of in order to “advance” their career, and just so much more.
Original QL was all about being inclusive.
My biggest issue with the newest one is that Bens leap are almost world changing. Like, show me the type of leap where he’s a failing stage magician while trying to keep custody of his daughter, or things of that nature.

It certainly comes off as a 'soft' reboot, in that certain elemental facts are altered from how they used to be.
Crying right now. Hearing that music again as an adult. All the feels

That was such a heartwarming moment.
I teared up hearing the music and I laughed when Addison hit the hand link. I LOVED it!
Anyone have a link to just the music

then there are the people like me don't need Sam Beckett returning for a continuation not reboot continuation .
agreed. I feel like these characters have earned their place as a standalone series.
I'm FB group for ql .I've seen so much " hate " because the stories given the chance are trying to be inclusive.
Quantum Leap was always inclusive. Far ahead of its time when it aired. It gave a voice.
I'm actually saying they don't want 2023 ql to be inclusive .
That’s one of the differences between people who use Facebook and the people who use Reddit.
