Scott Bakula as Dr. Samuel "Sam" Beckett
Dean Stockwell as Rear Admiral Albert "Al" Calavicci
Quantum Leap is about a show that a person named Dr. Samuel "Sam" Beckett that travels through time. Everytime he leaps from life to life and making everything that went wrong to make it right. He has only one person is a observer from his own time. And his only communcation in his own time. Also Dr. Beckett hasnt returned to his own time as of not yet.
The Intro
Theorising that one could time travel within his own lifetime, Dr. Sam Beckett lead an elite group of scientists into the desert to develop a top secret project known as Quantum Leap. Pressured to prove his theories or lose funding, Dr. Beckett prematurely stepped into the Project Accelerator - and vanished! He awoke to find himself in the past suffering from partial amnesia and facing mirror images that were not his own, driven by an unknown force to change history for the better. Fortunately, contact with his own time was maintained through brainwave transmissions with Al, the project Observer who appears in the form of a hologram that only Sam can see and hear. And so Dr. Beckett finds himself Leaping from life to life, striving to put right what once went wrong and hoping each time that his next Leap will be the Leap home...
Have u seen this show before? If so what are ur impressions on it.
For me personality I loved this series and i wish they can do more.
Also I thought this was one of Scott Bakula's best performance in this series.

I thought it was a brilliant show, it was a real interesting idea to have someone leaping into other people's bodies and changing history.
My favourite episodes were the JFK special, the one where Sam and Al swapped places, the one where Sam leaped into the body of a professional wrestler and the final episode.
It's a pity they couldn't have made more, there was so much scope for stories. There really was no limit to the types of people Sam could leap into.
I will say one thing though-with all the history that Sam changed, what result did that have on the future? You know, the old Grandfather Paradox and all that!
But, a great show. By the way, Donald P. Bellisario (the guy behind the show) did other TV shows such as Airwolf, Magnum P.I., JAG and Navy NCIS. Well, I read an interview with him awhile back and he said how he'd have loved to have had an episode where Sam leaps into the body of Magnum P.I. but some legal issue (yawn) prevented that.
P.S. I know Sam can only leap within his lifetime but he broke that rule on a couple of occasions. So when are we going to see Sam leap into the body of Captain Archer?

I think it ws HILLARIOUSE when he was a woman
The one where he went back to himself as a 16 year old boy was quite good

What kind of ending is that?
Wasn't there like a lady jumping from lives to lives but doing the opposite and instead of setting things right she made them wrong?
