There was a show in the 80's-90's called Quantum Leap, where the aforementioned character keeps waking up in other people's bodies at different periods of time. The premise is that he needs to solve some sort of problem for them that changes the course of history before he is able to leap to someone else, in the hope that he changes enough to one day "leap home."

In this photo, Kash Patel looks panicked and confused, which mirrors the character's behavior when he suddenly finds himself in someone else's body and has no idea what's going on.

Thanks, might have been a tad too young around that time 😊

It's good tv, even now. Hokey at times, but in a largely good way.

One of the main characters is written as sexist in a stupid way, but it was done intentionally so the show could work into his character development.

Quantum Leap memes are for old people

Just wait until 2052 and someone makes a skibidi meme.

I love this show, and I'm not old.

Yet more evidence he jumped into Kash Patel?

LOL this clip is almost as good as Haley Joel Osment on Walker, Texas Ranger saying "Walker told me I have AIDS"

Good Sci Fi is for everyone

Yeah but this younger generation had a quantum leap with not Sam and not Al that was objectively dog shit. We had the good Quantum Leap with Sam and Al.

There's a Quantum Leap remake?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Technically a sequel series, which already had 2 seasons and was cancelled. Sam was mentioned but never appeared in it.

Hey man, we also got MacGyver with Not Jack O'neill

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I refuse to acknowledge a reboot of MacGyver.

How do I join the MGU (MacGyver Union)? I have to cobble together some kind of device that hacks me in, don't I?

Point taken lol

there was a show “quantum leap” where every week the protagonist would “leap” into a different time, place, and person. After solving whatever problem that person had he would get to leap again. Hoping, each time, that the next leap would be his leap home.
