The conversation on "Quantum Leap" is at the 20:30 point. But Scott Bakula also talked about the cancellation of "NCIS New Orleans", one of my all-time favorites "Men of a Certain Age", and "Star Trek: Enterprise"....
Reboot of "Quantum Leap" gets pilot order at NBC Quantum Leap Reboot, Centered on 'New Team,' Ordered to Pilot at NBC
I can see "Sam" still traveling through time, out-of-control without Al to ground him and his "swiss-cheese memory". Would Gooshie still be back at the lab after all this time, or without Al would the whole project have been shelved, and written-off as a failure? And, what about the unresolved issue of the "evil leaper"? Spoiler I kind of figured once God and The Devil made their appearances, there wasn't any other place to go that would still be as significant.
Sam had a daughter as a result of one of episodes. I would have to assume Sam will somehow turn the mantle over to her in this new series. How or why I don't know or want to guess as God has to somehow release him from his task first.
