Featured review
Leap the Shark
This is "Quantum Leap's" "jump the shark" moment. The story starts out intriguing as Sam jumps back into a person he's been before and gets to revisit people he met on the previous leap. Why things are getting worse is the mystery. The answer is terrible.
There might have been something to the story of another leaper, even one with a less altrueistic motive than Sam. But this is handled in a very cartoonish way and becomes one of the worst episodes of the series. Painful to watch.
