Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Joshua Lawrence Pike Sam Becket is working on a DoD funded project to time travel. If it worked it would send him back in time to inhabit the body of anyone, so long as it was within his own lifetime (so no going back before he was born). The project was being shut down, so he took a chance and used it on himself. It worked, everything but the part about being able to get him back when they wanted to. The show is about him leaping around time, inhabiting the bodies of various people from the 50's to the late seventies. They can talk to him through Al, a hologram of his friend in the future that only he could see. Each leap he had to fix something, then he would leap out (almost all the episodes are one leap).The show is a good example of using the vehicle of science fiction to tell very human stories. The things he fixed were often about changing people, or having someone not make a mistake that hurt them or others. For example in one he was sent back as a rich man's servant. The rich guy was foreclosing on a mission around Christmas time. His job was not the save the mission, his job was the get the rich guy to WANT to save it, to see that money was not everything. He was there to save the mans soul. What he was sent to do were often turning points of people's lives, trying to convince people to do right, but not forcing them to. It was thoughtful and insightful about things in ways that modern Hollywood isn't anymore.www.JoshuaLawrencePike.com

drystyx A lot of better writers had such a science fiction scenario in mind long before this show about a man's spirit (or soul, or whatever you want to call it) being inserted into a past person's body in order to alter future events.It's too bad that producers and publishers are deathly afraid of inspiration, talent, and creativity, because they simply have their hacks rewrite good scripts (which they reject from the original writers) into scripts with no life, no inspiration, no depth, nothing.That is apparently what happened here. This show should have been much better. First of all, it was heavily inundated with neo-Nazi ideology, meaning any woman with dark hair would probably be exterminated in favor of a blonde woman being saved. Needless to say, this was loved by the female audience, but seen as depressing by males.There is also the poorly explained bad science. The writers seemed to be on hallucinogenic drugs, because there was absolutely no format for the scenario. It was all just magic, and that would be okay if it was supposed to be magical and supernatural, but the writers made a huge mistake in trying to say it was scientific.This is about as bad as it gets. Again, the woman will love it, but the man will hate it.

davictorschwarz This show satisfies awe, wonder, faith, love, and even a little bit of science. As it is a science fiction, I still feel it is more of a religious show. I like it. We cannot change the past, but we should learn to change the future with our present. For all of this, it is difficult, and we cannot do it alone, unless being a self reliant loner sounds like a good way to spend your entire life. This show helps to enlighten you in ways you can really do just that. However, there is a huge flaw in the science side of the show, in that if time travel were possible, and if SAM really did accomplish these things, then the chain reaction caused by it would have most likely made it so that I wouldn't be here now to make this review. However, maybe I am here in place of another person who would have been here in my place, because of what SAM did. So, to save the other me (who isn't me), maybe man should never have traveled through time, and I should just admit that in light of that, I don't deserve to be here. However, because the show includes God, we can also assume that everything will get taken care of with a little faith.

Maniac-9 Quantum Leap was a show way ahead of its time as far as network dramas go. A show that started in the late 80's and aired through the early 90's dealing with time travel. Before then all of the TV dramas were all cop, doctor and lawyer type of shows. QL combined drama, sci fiction, action and comedy at times.The show starred Scott Bakula as Dr. Sam Beckett and Dean Stockwell as Admiral Al Calavicci, they were the only actors to appear in every episode. Sam is trapped in a time travelling paradox of sorts with Al in the present goes into a special room that is able to advise Sam along the way appearing as a hologram. One each time travel the duo has to fix something that went wrong in the past before being able to leap to the next time. Sam hopes with each subsequent leap that it'll the leap home.
