another correction. Al was in the last episode. He interacted with Sam outside the pub.
Maybe this is why they are holding off on the DVD to tie it in with the new series. I read about it(new series) a couple of months ago on Cinescape's site.
As perfect as the ending was, it is a great setup for a continuation. And with Enterprise supposedly on the fritz Bakula could be free to do a handful of guest episodes. Not sure what Dean Stockwell is up to though.

They announced back in 2002 that one of the series they would be releasing in 2003 was Quantum Leap. If I remember correctly, it's now 2004. I'm just assuming they are compiling multiple commentaries for every episode as well as deleted scenes, outtakes, featurettes, lost episodes, etc... so I can wait... *crossing fingers*...
A big
on the news that there is a TV movie for Quantum Leap. Excellent.

occasional episodes of JAG as the secretary of the navy
jag is also a bellisario work iirc so it shouldn't be hard for him to do both

I'm looking. I just found out about it tonight from my friend who normally isn't up on science fiction type news.

The following two quotes are from July 2002:

The following two quotes are from July 2002:
While talking up the recently announced QUANTUM LEAP TV movie set to air on the Sci-Fi Channel next year, channel President Bonnie Hammer told our own Eric Moro onetime series star Scott Bakula may be making a cameo.
Here’s what she had to say:
“QUANTUM LEAP is absolutely a classic. It’s done well on our channel in repeats and we’ve always wanted to do a QUANTUM LEAP reunion movie. And then when we started thinking about it and then we merged back with Universal, we said, ‘Wow, let’s do a two-hour movie. Let’s see who we can attract from the original series and let’s start our own. So we’re thrilled about that because [QUANTUM LEAP] is so pure sci-fi, but so mainstream that I think we’re going to pull in a whole new audience.”
When asked if Bakula would return, she said with a smile, “You never know. You never know.”

When asked if Bakula would return, she said with a smile, “You never know. You never know.”
The Sci Fi Channel revealed yesterday it is developing a new QUANTUM LEAP movie, not involving Scott Bakula. Bakula, you may recall, is busy with a little show called ENTERPRISE.
In a statement to the press at this year’s Television Critics Association gathering, the network crowed, “QUANTUM LEAP, which is being developed as a two-hour movie that will serve as a back-door series pilot.”
As network president Bonnie Hammer said in the statement, “Projects such as QUANTUM LEAP… [are] exactly why SCI FI is excited about being part of the Universal family. We have an opportunity to access the rich Universal library - which includes a vast array of horror and sci-fi titles – to create new television experiences for a contemporary audience.”
The other Universal series Sci Fi is working on as an event is the four hour mini-series version of BATTLESTAR: GALACTICA.
Don P. Bellisario, who worked on the original LEAP series will executive produce. No word on the involvement, or probable non-involvement of Bakula or series co-star Dean Stockwell, but it’s expected to air next year.

According to an unnamed source at TV Guide Online, Universal Television is contemplating a QUANTEM LEAP reunion movie. The source informed the site that the studio was “exploring” the idea of reuniting Scott Bakula and Dean Stockwell in a two-hour network movie.
LEAP producer/creator Donald P. Bellisario had told the site earlier he’s been trying to get a reunion movie going for some time, but "Universal, who truly owns the rights to it, has never shown an interest."
What may have changed the studio’s mind is the newly expanded career of LEAP star Bakula, with his role on the surprisingly popular ENTERPRISE.
