The new quantum leap seems to have different rules. In this one he seems to literally leap into the body of the person he’s leaping into, which sort of makes more sense (although some of the best moments of the original were Sam doing something the leapee couldn’t do like when he leaped into the guy with amputated legs ).

I am annoyed with the character motivations in QL. I really dislike the lady that was supposed to be the jumper, she is a terrible actress.

The main guy is great, and you have to love Winston, but the rest of the characters are lacking in many ways.

I am also not convinced they have a satisfying ending planned. Plus they got an extended order, so you know they are about to abandon the storyline for filler episodes.

it’s grown on me. it really works well as a binge, since its a continuing story. The biggest issue is that its overly serious. I sort of enjoy that Dr. Song is less of a superman than Dr. Beckett, i think they need to stop spending so much time in the present, but i am enjoying that there are stakes beyond just getting Ben home. I think they needed to explain the new rules more clearly for people who saw the old show.
