Everything old is brand-new once again.
On Thursday,Jan 13, NBC revealed that Quantum Leap may, in truth, return, as the network has actually purchased a pilot for the unanticipated reboot. This “Oh boy”- deserving news comes practically 30 years after the Scott Bakula– led sci-fi series went off the air.
For those not familiar with the initial program, which aired on NBC in between 1989 and 1993, Quantum Leap follows physicistDr Sam Beckett, who is caught in the past after an experiment fails. In order to get house, he needs to jump in between locations, individuals and time to right the wrongs of the past.
Intriguing, right? However, this isn’t your moms and dads’ Quantum Leap, as the brand-new program’s description teased that “a new team has been assembled to restart the project in the hopes of understanding the mysteries behind the machine and the man who created it.” Not to discuss, TVLine reports that Bakula’s participation in the task “is to be determined.”
On the other hand, Bakula did inform the late Bob Saget in a September episode of the comic’s podcast that there were “very significant conversations” about a Quantum Leap reboot going on.
