That episode (Saving Jackie O) is my all time favorite; I thought for sure they would lean more heavily into stuff like that, and hope the new one does (e.g. new guy stops a woman who is supposed to help make the Space program work from running over a young boy in the street. It works, and he jumps, be we find out the boys name was Donald and…”).
That would require what I think I heard somewhere which is that they do extend the jumping range, either through some tech innovation, or by tapping into Sam’s life span as well… On Fri, 23 Sep 2022 at 2:49 PM Pete Ahles <[email protected]> wrote: > > On Fri, Sep 23, 2022 at 5:21 PM Kevin M. <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Wonder if the new Quantum Leap will explore the butterfly effect of >> leaping.
