No Season 3 for the sci-fi drama.
April 5, 2024
It is being reported that NBC has cancelled Quantum Leap after two seasons. The news comes less than two months after the sci-fi drama wrapped its 13-episode sophomore run. The move is not really a surprise, as it was one of the network's lowest-rated scripted series.
A continuation of the 1989 show of the same name, Quantum Leap takes place 30 years after Dr. Sam Beckett stepped into the accelerator and vanished. Now, a new team led by physicist Ben Song has been assembled to restart the project to try and understand the mysteries behind the machine and the man who created it. But everything changes when Ben makes an unauthorized leap into the past, leaving his team behind to figure out why he did it.

I did not watch the first 7 episodes.
I figured it was garbage. I tuned in on some slow nights during the last half of season one. It caught my interest.
Season two was pretty good. It's a shame you watched the first ones and cleared your dvr. Granted, I likely don't have time to go back and see how this reboot started. Your comments did help me recover 7 hours (minus commercials) of my media viewing time.
@Burglar - Flash Gordon reboot was awesome. So new. Fresh. and activated memberberries.
@Just Keith - That was english, with too many line spaces and no spellcheck.
Lets get back on point with educayted, (thats for you Keith) critical criticism. Without doing spoilers.... don't we all think that the end of season two does work? Of course we want more. But the voices who want more are drowned out by crybabies who have probably never seen a real dumpster with contained fire.
The end of season two sets up a lot of great possibilities in story lines, could fit in Sam, and it did not jump the shark. 'cept for the megalomaniac uber-investor bit. It was alright. Veiled social commentary. Honestly I thought he was more a critique of the military machine, and impossible altruistic blendings of private, govt, and public sectors. And not too much of a jab at elon.
I'm really saddened and disappointed that I was waiting for this reboot for 30 years for nothing more than a dumpster fire.
i of course avoided this clap trap, but then suring the last half of season one, i tuned in. Much like many of us who were here the first time around qwho watched sam beckett live a whole fricken bunch.
so i was trepidatitous.
then i had very little on tv and checked into the new guy doing the the leap thang.
caught my interest.
i watched season two.
so lets solve some shiz!
woke! seriously? attractive cross dresser?
hawt guy goes in a dress, and you don't want to mention that time your wife begged you to wear her dress????
as for sci-fi this had promise.
and all you wantabe nostalgic hispters! NO! if sam shows up it should be part of a plot.
you seriously sit there moaning and bemoaning and why oh why oh why cant this be just like this the same but amplified.
just more of this exact same but more.
if you are a tv junkie, tune into sitcoms.
no one can tune into an old show and demand it be the same, just the same, but amped.
use heroin. not heroin laced with fent. use heroin for your nostalgia wake sleep/
this show was good and they did a decent end. open for so much more. closed if you payed attention.
