• Quantum Leap Reboot

    From Avon@21:1/101 to All on Fri Sep 23 17:23:53 2022
    Watched episode one last night and liked it.

    They have largely kept the same formula but also referenced the original characters and paid a nice tribute to Dean Stockwell who died last year.

    If you liked the original show I'd give this one a go :)

    Watched it on NBC and there's only one episode out so far.

    Oh nice, I did miss (or forget about) the information about this.
    I liked the original series, so I will look for the reboot.

    Thanks for the hint!

    I watched it to, I will be honest, at first I wasn't happy about it, but then it settled into my mind and I think it will be good. I liked what they did with Dean Stockwell, and I like how they intertwined Sam Beckett into it, NOW the key is Al's Daughter is involved... After I first watched it, I said immediately afterwards to my wife, Al's Daughter is trying to find Sam because Sam was the reason she was alive! Sam went back in the final episode to Al's wife and told her to wait for him. I feel like that is why the new Jumper did the jumping, he is going to find Sam in the last episode of the season OR he will jump into Sam.. I am looking forward to episode 2.

    Thanks... I really appreciate that review.

    I've been on the fence about so many reboots. So many of them are just
    nothing more than trying to milk every last cent out of a dead franchise,
    or some kind of "reimagining" that no one but the producer could care
    about.

    But some reboots really make it work and enhance the original story. I'm hoping that's where this ends up.... but now at least I'm not going to be skittish about giving it ago.

    Ok... maybe "skittish" isn't the right word... more like "I barely have
    enough time as it is and Disney+ just premiered Star Wars Andor".

    Yeah, that's a better way to put it. Plus a new season of Survivor, my
    Below Deck "*" guilty pleasure and of course, Emergency! reruns!

    You're welcome, but it wasn't much of a review really, I feel like I need to award stars out of five for it to be a real review :)

    I've been on the fence about so many reboots. So many of them are just nothing more than trying to milk every last cent out of a dead franchise, or some kind of "reimagining" that no one but the producer could care about.

    I agree, reboots are a sign of the times (or have been) it's nice to see new creative ideas rather than just same same but with a twist (oh look the lead is now a girl instead of a guy (for example))

    But some reboots really make it work and enhance the original story. I'm hoping that's where this ends up.... but now at least I'm not going to be skittish about giving it ago.

    I think they have a hard path to tread, they are trying to show a show to folks who never saw the last one, and also need to honor the old show and keep those fans happy... never easy.

    Ok... maybe "skittish" isn't the right word... more like "I barely have enough time as it is and Disney+ just premiered Star Wars Andor".

    Heh, I have not watched that yet, been slowly watching She Hulk, the ladies at home here like it, I find it light and fluffy... better than the last Thor movie though.

    Yeah, that's a better way to put it. Plus a new season of Survivor, my Below Deck "*" guilty pleasure and of course, Emergency! reruns!

    Neither I have watched as yet... still gotta do Andor :)

    Exactly my point in my post.. He's not dead, they are definitely leaving the door open for him to make a cameo somewhere.. Especially since the last episode proved my point even more when they said Dr Ben Song is leaping into times NOT in his lifetime. Thus this gives him a chance to go back to the lifetime of Sam Beckett to find him.. Plus now that Al's Daughter looks to have her own Imaging chamber, she too will probably be able to jump at some point.. This show is starting to get more and more intricate...

    Well, Andor is still "in progress" so you can get caught up in a few
    hours... it's growing on me. I had my reservations at first.

    Honestly, I never liked the character in Rogue One... thought he was too
    much of a dick and was rooting for him to take a blaster shot to the
    head.

    Still don't like him in Andor... still hoping for him to take a blaster
    shot to the head. Just a little less so.

    The Below Deck franchise... that's well... about girls in bikinis and
    feeling superior to rich mo-fos. ;)

    Emergency! Well, if you have to ask the question, you won't understand
    the answer.

    I think there was some discussion of using Scott Bakula's Sam Beckett character, but the studio/showrunners decided not to do so. But who
    knows in the future.

    They also slightly changed the way things work.. there's no longer the
    other person sitting in Sam's body in the "waiting room" which is a
    minor functional change from the original, but given how the OG series
    ended, who knows on that too.

    The "other leaper" at the end of the last episode was interesting,
    curious to see where that goes.

    That's a good point. So they should know exactly where Sam is because of the person in the waiting room.

    After a mid season hiatus this is back again on NBC, I've really enjoyed the way they have been telling this story and it's callbacks to the original series.

    Nice to see it's been renewed and for season 1 additional episodes have been ordered.

    After a mid season hiatus this is back again on NBC, I've really
    enjoyed the way they have been telling this story and it's callbacks to the original series.

    Nice to see it's been renewed and for season 1 additional episodes have been ordered.

    I have enjoyed it, but not to the point I enjoyed the old one. I too like
    the callbacks, but the overall way of storytelling is not as good to me.

    No one in the waiting room - too much 'present time' stuff. The old one
    was basically an anthology with the same protaganist.

    But a lot of this has fallen off my 'enjoyment radar' since my increase
    in Christian beliefs and seeing things in a Biblical worldview... The
    worst thing is someone dying, right? And the best thing is saving their
    life, right? Not when you have a Biblical worldview...

    So it's a nice distraction some, but not 'up there' for me...

    They SHOULD know exactly were Sam is, since whomever he leaped into
    should be sitting in the waiting room.

    Part of the changes, I think... No waiting room now.

    And Sam's last TELEVISED leap had no one in the waiting room, sooo... :-)




    ... Can you repeat everything after "Listen VERY carefully!"

    That's fair... but to counterpoint... They are trying to "fix" what
    "should have been". You're right about viewing life and death that way
    from a Christian/Biblical worldview as far as that individual was
    concerned, but it's also about what they might accomplish in life,
    offspring that "never were" due to the "untimely demise".

    One could consider that if this person had not completed "God's plan" for
    them yet, this could be how it gets set straight.

    You are correct! The Good Lord works in mysterious ways! :-)
