Yes but ONLY if they use differnt leading actor every time. I am sick of Sam in women dresses or suppose to be black but we see him as obviously white.

Make it interesting.

I don't see the point in a "remake" where new actors play Al and Sam.

Go ahead and be a sequel to the original with Sam finally stopping leaping because of someone taking his place in the pilot. Then go with it.

Loved this show as a kid.


I would watch a reboot....as long as they didn't do something PC and recast with women or make Al or Sam transgender or gay.

I always was more of a Sliders fan than a QL fan. One of the few I think.

I would love to see an updated Quantum Leap.

That being said, they're already giving us a new MacGyver and it looks like steaming shite. so I doubt any of us would get the reboot we would want.

Some things were a moment in time. Leave it be.

Unless, as suggested, you have a rotating cast of the actors for whoever Sam leaps into that week. That could be interesting, to see different people's take on, essentially, the same character.

This could be pretty cool if executed properly.

that shite was awful.

I cant believe CBS heads saw the pilot and decided to green light it to series.

But I think Al should be a witty comedic actor, who can also throw in some drama here and there. Nobody in particular comes to mind at the moment.



Not sure who would be a good Sam (maybe John Krasinski). Maybe too old, but what about Ted Danson as Al? He has had the comedic timing in the past, and his CSI time has shown that he can play serious as well.
