• Quantum Leap Reboot Cancelled

    From Avon@21:1/101 to All on Sunday, April 07, 2024 16:25:50
    Really sorry to hear this show had not been picked up for a third season.

    I watched the first season and really enjoyed it, and has yet have been unable to watch season two.

    For what I had seen they had a good bash at it and there were some nice episodes and situations the new 'Sam' got himself into.

    I refused to watch it but it is on my list. Had you ever seen the REAL show years ago? If so, was it comparable?

    I did watch the original and yes it was comparable, I liked the fact the original show writer was involved and they tried to advance the stories based on existing cannon.

    stories based on existing cannon.

    That is good. I am amazed at how many shows get rebooted and ignore the
    cannon and, for that matter, how many simply change writers who then
    decided to "rewrite history" and ignore the cannon.

    Those all usually fail so I am not sure what the motivation is.

    Good show, it had some interesting characters I could do without.

    I have a few episodes I need to finish.

    Hallo Avon,

    Really sorry to hear this show had not been picked up for a third season.

    Oh no! I just watched the first season and I'm really loving the show!
    Sad to hear that there will be no third season...
    I just hope that the end of the second season is 'complete' without
    any bad cliffhangers...

    Regards,
    Anna

    I'm really guttered, I was totally enjoying it also. I hope some other broadcaster opts to pick it up.

    DVR .. nice, yes it's good to have that option... I think here it may be on a pay to view service... so have not yet seen Season 2.

    i'm always reminded of my guilty pleasure of cheesy tv, "The Lost World," which after three seasons went off the air with a huge cliffhanger.

    i forget how much time passed, but eventually we got a pdf file of what the ending would have been from the writers lol

    thankfully they were legit seasons not the lame 8-10 episode junk they do nowadays.. 66 episodes over three seasons is not too shabby.

    It's called 'Fetch TV', and can also play netflix and local media.
    I rearly watch live TV. It helps to also skip the adds, and pause a show for loo breaks! Can slso do that for live tv. %-;

    Interesting... At one point, not to long ago I evaluated so many TV options over the years... Ultimately ended up Emby with antennas on the roof and Tivo Stream 4k's around the house modded with a different front end to
    speed them up.

    As for content, it comes in through antenna, and other means.

    I originally had two twin TV cards in a computer running mediaportal. Everything like tv (both live and recorded) was great. Watching a MP4 etc
    movie file, and even real DVD's.. Netflix was a hack though, along with the
    TV guid data..

    I switched to the Fetch box about four years ago, after having isses with
    the above setup and not wanting to bugger around with it to get it going.

    As for content, it comes in through antenna, and other means.

    I still have a antenna on the roof! I'll look through the TV guide and mark things to get recorded, or when skipping the adds see a mention of a show.
    I'll then go and mark it as well.
