One of the Best TV series ever.

Quantum Leap is probably the TV series I saw during my childhood I remember most fondly. It had an amazing mythology, the stories were intelligent, it always left me in expectation and I practically grew up watching it. I was barely finishing my fifth year in elementary school when the final episode aired.
Even though it took Universal so long to release the DVD, I'm still hoping the next seasons will take no more than 6 months between each other (like the case of The X-Files).
I think this TV series was so well done that is must be a classic. It entertains adults and children alike with an intelligent plot that leaves something to the viewer (unlike most of the shows there are out there nowadays).
For fans it's a must, and for people who want intelligent well done entertaining TV this is definitely worth the money...

Leap to the release of the entire series!

Quantum Leap is simply one of the best television series ever made. Period. Attempting not to sound like other reviews, this is one absolutely fantastic series that has a little something for everybody. Throughout its five seasons, the main characters, quantum physicist/scientist/musician/martial arts expert Dr. Sam Beckett (Scott Bakula) and his trusty sidekick, ex-astronaut/Viet Nam veteran/MIT graduate/womanizer Al Calavicci (Dean Stockwell) go through seemingly, and apparently countless adventures together (Sam ultimately never returning home). BR>Like science fiction? Well there's a backdrop of a time travel story about a man bouncing around through time within his own lifetime, 1953-1999 (with 2 exceptions), with a holographic link to the present via his own brainwaves. This link, Al, is only seen by Sam himself, children under the age of 5, the mentally ill, and animals. However, Sam's time travels come with a twist: he "leaps" into the lives of random people in the past uncontrollably, with their auras surrounding him and being seen as the person he has leapt into until he makes right what once went wrong in their lives. Al comes in quite handy as Sam's guide to what's going on and giving advice through experience all the while technically remaining in the present. Sam and Al also have the aid of a parallel hybrid computer, Ziggy, which was invented by none other than Sam himself. To further complicate matters, an unexpected side-effect of Sam's time travel is amnesia in which Sam's memory is constantly "swiss-cheesed" and he knows little details about his life before the time travel experiment. Not only does the amnesia occur but in some cases traces of minds of the people Sam has leapt into get left behind and scrambled with Sam's own mind making his missions that much more difficult to accomplish. BR>There's also plenty of sports, romance, drama, action, comedy, horror and plenty of controversial subjects tackled in this series. What makes Quantum Leap such a great series is its flawless execution at so many diverse subjects and making them believable through the main character's point of view. In a time where most of the subjects (racism, sexism, homosexuality) were shied away from on network television, Quantum Leap was one of the first series to examine these topics with a unique perspective. Sadly, it remains highly underrated and not well known among mainstream audiences, most likely due to its unorthodox science fiction backstory. BR>The good news is that this series is finally officially making it to DVD, the bad news is that it is only the first season (for now) which consists of 9 episodes counting the two part pilot episodes. Being a big fan of the series, only having the first season will have to do for now but I'm happy that it's even on DVD to begin with. Having seen the series, even without any special features, I would rate it five stars. Inevitably the other four seasons must come to DVD as well and unfortun

Classic TV!

This show is one of the all time classics.My favorite episodes from season 1 is The Color of Truth and Camikazi Kid.The other episodes was great too.I also like the appearence of Buddy Holly.I do think Quantum Leap over did with a kiss with history bit,such as Stephen King who appeared in season 3 or was it 4?I also enjoyed the Quantum Leap episodes where Scott Backula sung.Scott is a amazing singer! Any way this is an amzing DVD set to have.I cant wait for the October release of season 2.And also cant wait to get Scott Backula's other TV show on DVD Enterprise.Way to go Universal! Cant wait for Knight Rider and Buck Rogers!
