| Welcome to my pages honoring the television show known as |
| Who could resist a face like that? Well, I can't, and neither can all the other Leapers who watch the syndicated episodes of this show, from the U.S.A., to the U.K,. to the Land Down Under. |
| This scene is from one of my all-time favorite episodes, "M.I.A." Al is seeing his wife coming to the realization that he has probably met his death in Vietnam. Since he's several years in the future as an observer, he can't tell her... or touch her. Here, Al tells Beth goodbye, realizing she may never know the truth. Can you feel a hologram's kiss? |
 |
| "Georgia On My Mind" written by Hoagy Carmichael and Stuart Gorell, performed by Ray Charles, is one of the great songs featured on "M.I.A." The MIDI file on this page was sequenced by Harry Todd. |
 |
| This is my favorite Quantum Leap character, Dr. Samuel Beckett. He is a genius with a list of specialties as long as your arm, and a heart as big as his native midwest. His aim is to put right what once went wrong. His original motive was to somehow understand and/or prevent (1) the death of his older brother Tom in Vietnam, (2) his father's fatal heart attack, and (3) the marriage of his younger sister Katie (at an early age) to an abusive man. Finding out why his soulmate Donna jilted him at the altar was no shabby reason to research the past, either. |
| He succeeded beyond his wildest dreams... |
| ...with some unexpected help from GTFW (God, Time, Fate, or Whatever). Is Sam doomed to bounce around in the past forever? Is his holographic observer, advisor, and best friend Al Calavicci ever going to quit smoking those cigars? Is Tina really having an affair with Gooshie (or is it Gushie)? And is the bartender Al in the very weird final episode "Mirror Image" really God? |
