One of my all-time favorites.

The guy who played Al had a guest role on Star Trek: Enterprise and there was a little cameo of the hand device thing he was always smacking.

I remember when there was still talk about a revival of some sort. There was gonna be a movie or a series about his daughter or something, but there's probably no chance of anything happening now. The ending was so sad it makes it hard for me to go back and watch the show now, and it would have been nice if they had at least given us some closure in a special or something.

If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about the answers.

Doesn't it end with him meeting God?

Also Bakula's cameo on its Always Sunny is great

yes and no. It's not literally god but an equivalent. It also doesn't really end. The show tells us he never returned home.

I watched the show when it was on from beginning to end, and have no idea how anyone could think that. The only possible connection they have is time travel.

Also, Quantum Leap? Great show. Quantum Leap's series finale? A steaming pile of shit, and Donald Bellisario should be hit in the head with every physical media copy as punishment for writing it.

It's not even real time travel like Dr. Who. He's just taking over the bodies of people who already exist in that time and not physically going back in time.

It really wasn't his fault. They weren't sure if it was getting canceled or not and had to write the finale with a hook in case it was actually renewed but still be a proper ending if it wasn't. There was an alternate ending that's never surfaced where Al decides to make the leap himself to save Sam but it's doubtful it was even filmed in full. IIRC when they got the word that it was definitely canceled they added that bit at the end.

Can we hit him in the face for JAG and NCIS?

Well then he could have had it read "Dr. Sam Beckett finally returned home after one last leap" or something like that.

After 5 seasons, that ending card was just a fucking slap in the face, and everyone I knew who watched the show was pissed beyond belief.

I think they were still hoping for at least a TV movie or something at that point. It was all very last minute and stupid. I don't think they gave it the best ending they could have even in that situation but at the same time I understand how it happened the way it did.
