I have just read an interview that basicly conferms that a new Quantum leap series is being made. its at
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...-2004Oct4.html
and the bit about QL is;
Harrisburg, Pa.: "Quantum Leap" was one of the greatest shows of all times. I recall when it was cancelled, someone stating that there is always a possibility that the show could return someday. I know it has been several years, but is there still some chance of reviving the show and giving it a second chance?
Donald P. Bellisario: I am working with Universal's scifi channel to create a new Quantum Leap which would have Stockwell as a regular and Scott Bakula appearing at least in the first episode which would introduce a young female leaper.
hopefuly this will explain some stuff in the last QL episode about why Sam never made it home
