QWuantum leap in 04?
I was talking to confused about this last night, and did a search...

http://imdb.com/title/tt0383588/

Quote:
Twenty years after the original series left Dr. Sam Beckett "leaping" into the great unknown, Sam is finally reunited with Al, his old mentor and "partner in time." But when circumstances beyond their control send Sam away once more, Al must recruit his lost friend's daughter to pick up where her father left off and hopefully help find Sam again in the process.
Hmmmm...

IMDB's hardly the most reliable source, but it's got me wondering..

Anyone got any actual news?

“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.”

--John Rogers

I remember one of the producers or somebody discussing bringing the show back with a female lead. But I read it years ago. I'll see if I can try to find it.

It's an interesting prospect, but also an iffy one. You know how remakes tend to go...

Word. I wish the show just would have continued. But then again...I think it ended on a high note. Leaping into Elvis, Lee Harvey Oswald, Marilyn Monroe's chauffer (sp?), "Bigfoot", and the Civil War were stretches. But they worked, IMO. The Lee Harvey Oswald episode(s) is one of, if not my favorite.

He ended up captaining the Enterprise.

There I've just saved us all a pointless series.

Some of those were really cool eps, too.

I liked a couple of the stretch eps, where he leaped where he shouldn't be...

The Civil War, where he leaped into a relative, the "simu-leap" he did where he and Al switched places, Leaping into "himself" at the very time of his birth...And the Oswald Eps, they were cool on so many different levels. I liked the ending of that one, where Al reveals that Kennedy's wife didn't survive in the original timeline.

If they had left it more ambiguous in the end, they could easily just pick up the series.

A new show.....

I don't know about that. If Al's a regular character, ok, not bad. But without Dr. Sam Beckett it just wouldn't be the same.

Well, with Enterprise in danger of cancellation, who knows. The question is whether Bellisario and Bakula wish to revisit this great show. Would a show like that really suceed in this era of trash tv and reality shows?????

They could make it a reality TV show.

Each episode, Sam leaps into another network's program, in an attempt to prevent the "wrong" people from winning...
