Quantum leap how many seasons

It wasn't too technical, it wasn't too Sci-fi. It had the drama of life, and offered some comedy at the same time. Instead of seeing the same person with the same people dealing with their own life, we saw many, many, many different lives all being influenced by one great man who in the end could be deemed a saint.

I am happy that the show was able to finish, and just disappear like some other great shows. The show had a good conclusion.

It was happy, but it wasn't sappy or ultra-moralistic and joyful. It was the perfect ending for such a case. There isn't a thing they could change about this show.

The only thing they could do to make it worse would be to make a movie for TV. Those type of things usually ruin a good show. Quantum Leap though is definitely a TV legend. FAQ 1. What's up with the show's obscure ending?

But I was so struck by how empathetic it felt. I just ran with what felt truthful and what felt honest about each situation. Those kinds of things were wonderful to try and get right. There was a certain responsibility to the show that Don never really wanted. Our job is to entertain. He had an ax to grind. We were talking about an animated episode, we were talking about Sam as a baby and trying to figure out how to shoot those kinds of things.

But gosh, we had a lot of fun with the 97 that we made. Why was it important to you to push for that? Initially that came from Dean. He was much more of an activist at the time than I was, and he introduced me to a lot of the things he and his wife had been championing. So Dean was always looking for an opportunity. We did an episode on Queen Elizabeth II [the cruise ship, not the person].

In that episode, I ended up in the trash container. We just got in the habit of looking for it. Sam wanting to clock the guy on the couch for trying to make a pass at him is funny, but underneath it, there are all of these issues. Certainly there are ways to relate to those episodes that were subtle. But there was a whimsy to the show, and there were definitely underlying elements to the show that lurked in the nostalgia.

How did that become part of the show? It just made sense to me. It was almost more of a metaphorical physicality, assuming metabolically your molecules are getting mixed up.

With not enough people watching, NBC was forced to pull the plug — but the show's road was a bumpy one that nearly ended much sooner. NBC officially canceled Quantum Leap in , but low viewership nearly did it in after its third season. The series' passionate watchers — or "leapers" — saved it the first time. Yet, even the details around the iconic TV ending — and one of TV's most frustrating cliffhangers — prove that the series finale wasn't so final either.

So, he wrote an ending with Beckett choosing not to return home and instead continuing to jump and right wrongs. That wasn't the only ending Bellisario wrote.
