Apparently the destination for the majority of Leapers on the Internet, Al's Place has won its fourth award for being the best all-around QL-related Web site. Between the image galleries, the episode guide, the character resources, and much more, it's no wonder that Al's Place is so widely recognized.

Virtual Series/ Fan-Fiction Awards

Quantum Leap: The Virtual Seasons
Starting out in 1999 with a "virtual sixth season" and 18 episodes, Quantum Leap: The Virtual Seasons has grown by leaps (pun intended!) and bounds to a total of eight more seasons with at least 28 episode each, greatly expanding on the universe established by Donald P. Bellisario's original television series. It has many talented authors as varied as the series itself, all of whom have aided in the growth of this virtual series.

A.J. Burfield and M.J. Cogburn, the co-founders, have given the Quantum Leap community the perfect opportunity to feel as though the series has continued.
