My challenge to "nobody want slow, plodding, methodical 'slow burn' TV shows with a title sequence and strong musical themes" is Stranger Things, Severance, and Doctor Who. Maybe such shows can't be made on network TV in the US, but there IS a market for them.

Interesting!

I wonder who makes that replica. It's not one of ours.

Thank you for doing this. I can't imagine the time editing and reviewing everything. I know Matt would have appreciated it.

How would the programming in Los Angeles impact the actual leaping process? So confused.

The new Quantum Leap crew are operating out of Los Angeles and seem to have created Quantum Leap completely with little reference to the original technology except for an errant Handlink. If they went to New Mexico, they could possibly get Ziggy working correctly without relying on a...
