jdigs 0 Posted June 11, 2003 great show, great actors. Lots of humor with Al and Bakula, Sometimes the show even served as a historical background for me when I was younge when it delved into the lives of celebrities and war vets. The show got silly when the Doc was stuck in a body or when they introduced the evil leapers but always tugged at the heart when he tried to get back to his wife..I agree with Fred, the ending was sad, but was nicely done.

mrskirk 0 Posted June 11, 2003 I too was a Quantum Leap fan. That was the first time I got an eye full of Hott Scott Bakula. I watched as many episodes as I could, but missed a few, including the ending. What happened? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thayln 0 Posted June 11, 2003 How Quantum Leap ended - Click for Spoiler: Sam leaps into a bar in 1953 on the date of his birth. He looks into a mirror and realizes that he leaped as himself. No one is in the waiting room. The bartender seems to know more about what is going on than he admits. Sam starts to meet all these people that he has either been before or known before, and they all have names of people he knows, like Ziggy and Gushie. The bar is even called Al's Place. He helps rescue some miners from a cave-in, and in doing so apparently helps another leaper complete his task. For the first time Sam gets to watch someone else leap. Sam talks with the bartender some more and accuses him of being the person that has been leaping him around. The bartender says that no, Sam is the one responsible. That he is in control of his own destiny. The bartender implies to Sam that the leaps are going to become much more difficult, and offers him a leap of Sam's choice as a kind of sabatical. He asks Sam where he wants to go. Sam says that he wants to go home, but he can't, because he let Al down by letting his wife marry someone else while Al was a POW in Nam. He chooses to leap back and tell Beth that Al is going to come home. The show ends by stating that Beth never remarried and that she and Al now have three daughters. Then words come on the screen that say: "Doctor Samuel Beckett never returned home." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrskirk 0 Posted June 11, 2003 Awwww!! That IS sad!!! Is that final episode available on DVD or download? I just gotta see it!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaBeachGuy 12 Posted June 11, 2003 Quantum Leap was an awesome show. I used to watch it every Tuesday afternoon on my C-Band dish before it aired to the general public then on Wed I'd watch it on the network a second time. Another one I liked (During it's first season) was Sliders. After the first season though I stopped watching. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
