In this first-season episode, Sam finds himself in the body of a white woman’s Black chauffeur in the segregated South. “Superficial similarities to Driving Miss Daisyaside, this is big and brave writing,” one IMDb reviewer wrote.
A fan calls this episode “a fun radio romp in the late ‘50s, involving a town effort to shut down the mythical Peoria rock-and-roll station.” (And how about this for a “Twist”: Chubby Checker played himself in this installment.)
Two episodes later, Sam leaps into the body of a young man with an intellectual disability, and he makes it his mission to keep his host alter-ego out of a mental institution. “This show always blows my mind,” one reviewer wrote.”Very heavy episode; great acting.”
In the second-season finale, Al tasks Sam with convincing a Navy nurse not to give up hope that her missing-in-action husband is still alive … and Sam realizes the mission hits close to home. “This is one of my favorite episodes of the show,” a viewer wrote in a 10-star review. “It’s emotionally heartfelt and even heartbreaking.”
In a season premiere that earned a Primetime Emmy Award for its makeup, Sam leaps back to his 16-year-old self and tries to help his family avoid future tragedy. On IMDb, a fan called this hour a “marquee episode of the series,” saying the drama of the hour is “poignant and emotionally evocative.”
The second part of the Season 3 premiere, an episode that earned an Emmy for cinematography, has Sam trying to save his brother’s mission in Vietnam, if not his brother’s life. “I believe this to be the best episode in the entire series!” one reviewer raved. “I cry each time I see it.”
At the end of Season 3, Sam leaps into the body of an electroshock therapy patient, and the shocks make him channel the various personalities of his past alter-egos. Bakula won a Golden Globe for this performance, which one reviewer called “his best work in the show or on TV ever.”
Quantum Leap’s fourth season opens with a big switch: Now Al is the leaper, and his mission is to reunite a World War II veteran with the woman he left behind. But one IMDb reviewer said it was great to “go ‘behind the scenes’ of the fictional Project [Quantum Leap] and see what it’s like on the other end — back (or ahead) in 1999.”
In the fourth-season finale, Sam leaps into the body of a Navy ensign on trial for the murder of an officer’s wife. An IMDb reviewer hailed the episode’s twist on Project Quantum Leap: “They are able to send young Al back in time to shortly before the death of the officer’s wife, with one instruction that will prevent this from happening.”
The series finale begins with Sam surprised to find that his new body is actually his own — albeit grayer and more wrinkled — as Al and supercomputer Ziggy realize they’ve lost track of the wayward time traveler. “A true masterpiece both in writing and in direction,” a fan wrote in an IMDb review of this swan song. “Bravo to you all.”
